The Cleansing Power of Raw Juices

Naturopath Dr. Alvenia Fulton (1893-1999) was born in Tennessee in migrated to Chicago where she practiced. She’s mentioned in the recent documentary The One and Only Dick Gregory. Here I am sharing her thoughts on cleansing your digestive system. I share them in a paraphrased format when necessary to make it more relevant and accessible and as direct quotes as often as possible.

An excellent health plan includes a one-day juice menu. One day a week one’s diet is restricted to raw fruit and vegetable juices only. This serves as a cleansing diet and the body is able to absorb the minerals and alkaline elements so essential to its well-being. One frequently hears that juice diets cause certain unpleasant physical effects. This is usually a good sign that the cleansing effect of the juices on the digestive system is taking place. If one continues his one-day juice diet for a few weeks, the results are often remarkable.
