Juice Cleansing while TTC

Lchase04

My friend and I have wanted to do the blue print cleanse and she got an incredible group rate but we need to confirm by today and it's for anytime in January. Is it ok to do a juice cleanse while TTC and if so should I do it before or after ovulation? Thank you!
I'm also going to email my nutritionist but not sure if she will respond.

Any nutritionist that is worth a shiit will talk you out of such a destructive eating pattern. Cleanses are dangerous and 100% unnecessary unless your kidneys and liver don't function properly.

Cleanses should never be done by anyone ever.

I'm with GM on this one. These cleanses are load of BS.

If you absolutely must do it, I'd do it before ovulation. I can't imagine it would be good for you after O if you're TTC.

ETA: Quote fail. I'm with GM. Stupid idea. If you're concerned about being healthy, then eat healthier. Key word there is EAT.

I would proceed very very cautiously if you are committed to doing a cleanse at the best of times, but if you are trying to get pregnant I would just skip it. Eat well and exercise instead. Think of it as trying to create the best environment possible for a baby and denying yourself food won't do much for that!

I agree with other people....if you want to lose weight and be healthy, it's all about portion control and everything in moderation.

Once you start eating food after your juice cleanse, you will only gain the weight back because your body will be starving....plus I can't imagine feeling well when your body is starving for food...wouldn't think that would be good for TTC.

I'm only doing this to cleanse after a binge in Vegas for NYE. I am already vegan, workout and live a healthy lifestyle.

I don't see how this makes a juice cleanse a good idea...

I understand what you're trying to accomplish (I think), but after a binge is especially when you just need to return your body to normalcy, not go in the opposite extreme.
