No, I'm not referring to the juice-heads Snooki and Deena from MTV's ‘The Jersey Shore' worship on Thursday nights. I am definitely not condoning the use of steroids, or jersey boys with explosive biceps. Nor am I referring to the cartons and bottles of sugar packed juice that adorn the shelves in supermarkets; if you were to read the list of ingredients you would find that juice is chock full of high fructose corn syrup. The juice I am talking about is followed by the word cleanse: juice cleanse. They seem to have been and still are all the hype in Hollywood. Especially in the last few months, to the celebrity world, also known as awards season. Stars frequently turn to juice cleanses to get slim for their Golden Globe gowns and fashions by Oscar De La Renta to wear to the Oscars.
For the sake of consistency, I am going to say once more what this article will not be discussing. I am not going to tell you to try a cleanse that consists of mixing water, freshly squeezed lemon juice and cayenne pepper for a week. I don't care how many times Beyoncè swears by it. This cleanse is known as "The Master Cleanse" and was developed by alternative medicine practitioner, Stanley Burroughs. This cleanse is not healthy and plausibly leads to a dozen pounds post-cleanse (I'm exaggerating). And I can also confirm that yes; it is as disgusting as it sounds.
