Here's the physiology behind juicing for weight loss.

As soon as the body needs calories, the process of catabolism (breaking down) starts. In this case your fat is being broken down. Each pound of fat has approximately 3,500 calories, which becomes fuel for the body. As each day passes, you get thinner and thinner. Meanwhile your body is being fed the highest quality nutrition that is easily the easiest to digest. This is why many physicians, nutritionists, celebrities and other people in the know - use juice fasting regularly. The thing is, most of the rest of us aren't exposed to this hidden tool!

If the idea of juice fasting for weight loss and for its' health benefits intrigue you, let's see what you'd need to do next.

NEXT STEPS:

1. As with any weight loss plan you should check in with your doctor first. If you are currently taking any medications or are ill, please be extra diligent before beginning a fast or any special weight loss/health program.

2. Purchase a juicer, which start at $40 for a basic model. You might start out with a less expensive model, and can always upgrade later.

3. Look up some juicing recipes online, or buy a book. Try and focus on veggies, rather than fruits. The rule of thumb is one green veggie, one fruit, and one bitter veggie. For example: Spinach, apple and kale.

4. Using your recipes, purchase a few days' worth of fresh veggies and a few fruits, as well as a scrubber and veggie cleansing spray.

5. Have plenty of fresh water on hand. Drink about 8 glasses of water per day. (You could also add some chamomile tea to supplement your water intake).

That's it! Simply follow the directions included in your juicer and get juicing! There's no rule as to how long you do it, but you may want to set 7-10 days as a minimum goal. You can bring a large bottle of your juice to work with you, too. Be sure to get support you'll need, such as reading testimonials - and enlist support from your family. My favorite inspirational website is Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead, which features a man who dropped 90 pounds in 60 days by juice fasting.

When you stop your fast, be sure to ease back into eating with some fruit and veggie juice blending for a brief period, and then move to salads and fresh fruits and veggies. There's tons of info on the internet to help you transition safely.

We all know that moderating food can be a very difficult challenge. The good news is this. Juicing takes the guesswork out of eating - since you're only drinking.

The answer is this - where has moderation and 'cutting down' gotten you so far? And it's not all your fault. Our stores and restaurants are packed with tons of yummy-looking, fattening foods.

This way, for a brief period in your life you can simply say 'no' to all of it! Juicing for weight loss keeps it simple. What do you have to lose, anyway? Done correctly, juice fasting will help you feel younger and revitalized, too.
