Good Cleansing Juice Cleanse Review | 3 Day Diary

After a few weeks of consistently working out, eating healthy and dropping a few pounds, I knew I didn’t want to ruin my results with a weekend girl’s trip. I already planned on giving myself a diet break those few days, not working out and basically eating everything that I could haha.

I wanted to prepare for the aftermath by researching a good juice cleanse I could use upon my return.  And to be honest, I just went with the cheapest one I could find as most of the juice cleanses I found were quite expensive. I decided to go with Good Cleansing. The website was enticing, they had a large selection of appeasing cleansing products and the reviews were decent. For $76 we had a hit!

They had a couple of different cleanses to choose from, but I decided with the Beginner Juice Cleanse. I wanted a cleanse with variety that wasn’t too bland so I could actually complete the 3 days.  They also have 5 and 7 days options, but I knew I didn’t want anything too difficult for my first cleanse attempt in years.
​
Shipping was a whopping $32 (so I paid $108 total), not sure if this is standard for a large UPS ground shipment, but I justified it as so in my head. After ordering from the website, I received email confirmation same day and another confirmation that my order was complete 3 days later. It then took 2 days to ship my order. In total, it took 5 days to receive my order after purchasing the cleanse.

As shown here, everything was packaged well and there were no issues with my bottles. I was super excited to start this cleanse the next day!

TASTE TEST! – The ultimate test for me was the taste of each juice. I knew if I wanted to complete the 3 days, taste would be essential. 

1. Citrus Fusion 

​(Grapefruit, Bee Pollen, Orange, Lemon, Ginger) 
​
Perfect one to start with. It has a reminiscence of orange juice with a twist. It does have some pulp which isn’t my preference, but I didn’t mind it. It was a little tart from the grapefruit, but still yummy overall. This one still tasted yummy each day I had it. 

2. Power Almond Milk 

(Vanilla Bean, Hemp Seed, Chia Seed, Raw Almonds, Dates)
​
This was really good when I had it on Day 1. It was identical to regular sweet almond milk without being too sweet. It was a great mid-day treat. Unfortunately, on the 2nd and 3rd day this one was horrible. It was too sour for me to drink even though I tried my best finishing them. Even though I stored the juices in the fridge, I’m guessing these had spoiled overtime and created that unbearable sour taste. For days 2 and 3, I replaced this juice with a banana since this was the most carb dense drink.  

3. Bee PALM 

(Bee Pollen, Pineapple, Lemon, Apple, Mint)

I wasn’t sure how I was going to like this one. I never tasted bee pollen before, but I was surprisingly shocked. THIS WAS MY FAVORITE ONE YET! This was definitely my favorite juice out of the cleanse, it was so good. It had a sweet pineapple apple taste (without the apple). Pretty hard to explain but trust me it’s good. I wanted to save this for last that’s how much I enjoyed it. 

4. Sweet Greens 

(Cucumber, Pineapple, Parsley, Celery, Apple, Kale)
​
This tasted like your typical green juice if you ever had one, except it wasn’t as bad as some. It was tasty and bearable. I think the pineapple and apple made it really easy to drink. This one was bearable each day. 

5. Love Your Liver 

​(Grapefruit, Carrot, Apple, Beet, Flax seed) 

This one has a strong beet taste and I don’t like beets so I didn’t care for this one that much. On the first day this was my least favorite, but by days 2 and 3 I actually started to enjoy the taste. My body seemed to crave the healthy vitamins and minerals overtime.  ​

6. Vegetable Broth 

((Kale, Carrot, Onion, Celery, Cabbage, Potato, Parsley, Seasoning Blend)

They recommend heating this one up at the end of the day for a warm satisfying last meal. Once heated, it tastes just like regular soup without all of the artificial flavoring and sodium. On Day 1, I loved this. It was really satisfying to finally have something warm at the end of the day and I enjoyed the taste. On Days 2 and 3, I was getting quite tired of the taste (and probably the cleanse in general) so it was not as great as the first day, but was still pretty decent.

Execution and Results:

​Before the cleanse, I was dealing with some really bad indigestion and stomach pain. Perhaps, I overindulged a little too much on my weekend trip. I gained quite a few pounds back from that weekend as well. Throughout the cleanse, my stomach pain was finally alleviated and I had very frequent bowel movements. I felt so much better because of this. Many people elude cleanses to be pure unbearable torture and have you craving everything in sight. I hate to say this but the cleanse was actually pretty easy for me, which I was shockingly surprised at. I intermittent fasted until 12 o clock every day and had a juice every 2 hours after that, which placed my last juice at 10 o clock. I highly recommend this technique because after each 2 hour mark I was getting quite hungry and the juices would knock that hunger right out. I also did not have any real cravings. This could be due to the fact I was getting ample minerals and vitamins and therefore, my body did not feel the need to crave anything. I watched my boyfriend eat full unhealthy meals right in front of me and I did not even want a taste. 

Day 1, I had ample energy and felt great all day. Day 2, I began to get a little hungrier and a little light headed at some parts of the day, but only for brief moments. Day 3, I was little woozy, but spent most of my day in the house and doing housework, so I could lay down at any time I needed it. Overall, the 3 days were easy to complete and I was so happy and shocked that I actually did. I was even more happy with my results. I started the cleanse at 142 pounds, I got down to 134 pounds. The day after completion I had an epic cheat day and only gained 2 pounds back. It’s been a week or so after the cleanse and I’ve still been able to maintain 136 pounds. I would love to do the cleanse again one day down the line (hopefully replacing that sour Almond Milk with a different option). xo
