Frequently asked questions

Why a juice fast and do I have to do one?

All living things have a period where they routinely slow down and allow their body to rest.

Your liver regulates many critical biological processes, one of which is detoxification.

Our modern lifestyle coupled with the unprecedently high levels of environmental toxins we encounter every day means your liver’s workload is stretched beyond reasonable expectations.

A juice fast, though not considered a ‘fast’ by purists, gives your liver a break by reducing its normal workload. This means it can recuperate and also turn to removing ‘hidden’ toxins stored in your tissues.

We want to do this because toxins are poisons that prevent our bodies from functioning optimally and as they accumulate over time they can put us in a diseased state.

Juice fasting to promote detoxification is nonetheless best done under professional guidance. We are all bio-individuals and there is not a one-size-fits all juice fast.

The naturopaths at Amchara Health work with you to ensure that you undergo the juice fast, or food best protocol adapted to you.

You may choose not to do a juice fast or it may be contra-indicated in your situation. However, whatever you eat will still support your liver.

Where will I stay?
