How much water should I drink during the cleanse?
Adequate hydration improves sleep quality, energy, mood, and cognition. Drinking enough water throughout your cleanse will also keep you feeling fuller and support the pathways involved in the detoxification process. Since you are not obtaining water through solid food, it is important to be mindful to make sure you are paying attention to your fluids throughout your cleanse. The amount of water to drink in your cleanse is not necessarily straightforward. Depending on if your environment tends to be on the hotter, cooler, humid, or drier side and on the demand of your daily physical activity, you may need to drink more or less water throughout the day. A general guideline often used is to drink half of your body weight in ounces of water per day. Herbal teas count towards your daily hydration too.
Why does the order of the blends matter?
Although we lay out a suggestion on the order of your blends throughout your cleanse, feel free to personalize to your liking. Some may prefer combining the Plant-Based Protein blends with other blends, while others may like to have them on their own. We do recommend keeping the Matcha Latte in the morning since it contains caffeine which can disrupt sleep and the Sleep Lemon Tea blend in the evening since it contains herbal supplements that support a restorative night's rest.
What should I do if I get hungry during the cleanse?
If you find that you are hungry, have an 8 ounce glass of water. If that didn’t help alleviate your sensations of hunger, try mixing your Vejo blend with a dairy alternative (i.e. oat or almond milk). If you find that your feeling of hunger is unbearable, eat! Reach for a small handful of almonds, avocado, or veggies.
How do I best prepare for the cleanse?
If you are doing the Vejo 1-Day Reset, you do not necessarily need to do much prep as most find easy to accomplish. If you are doing the Reset & Restore or Power Cleanse, we recommend that you start cutting down on caffeine, alcohol, and processed foods as it may help your transition into the cleanse.
What do I do after my cleanse is over?
As you prepare to get back to solid foods, keep your healthy habits going. Ease back into your caffeine consumption and keep alcohol consumption in moderation. To keep the benefits of your cleanse going longer, we recommend consuming a high quality whole foods diet by choosing organic produce, grass-fed grass-finished, pasture raised, wild-caught protein, and healthy fats while continuing to limit refined processed foods.
