why cleanse?
Toxins are all around us, no escape. Basic elements required for existence such as air, food, and water often include pollution and chemicals. We accumulate these toxins over a period of time and eventually our bodies succumb, in the form of sinus issues, low energy, poor skin quality, and further down the road develop into more challenging imbalances. We need to eliminate these built up toxins on a consistent basis and free ourselves from these bothersome concerns - lucky you that's our specialty.
Rebalance the body.
Oxygenate.
Alkalize the system.
Give digestion a rest.
Remove acidic build - up in the colon, to encourage proper nutrient absorption.
Re-hydrate the system.
Create better eating habits.
It is possible to live in a state of balance and vitality. Allow yourself this experience. This is all about transition. A main reason why we use these focused cleanses is to break unhealthy eating patterns, and move towards feeding ourselves vibrant and health generating foods. WE do not believe in deprivation, or being miserable. Not what it's all about. We DO believe that this journey is all about celebration, freedom, fun and living life to the fullest. WE accomplish this by transitioning towards a goal at our own personal pace. Add the healthy choices in, the less-than great choices fall away. Keep new toxic load to a minimum. Stay green and keep juicing.
why choose Lucky You over other detox programs?
Our principle is two-fold: get yuck stuff out AND put nourishing yummy stuff in, creating fresh pressed juices (a special extraction method) which have 3-5 times more vitamins and minerals than other juicing methods. Some cleanse programs miss this formula. Lucky for you we have it all worked out.
cleanse benefits?
Remove the toxic debris, feel clear and light and full of energy. It is pretty straightforward. Many clients experience: physical and mental rejuvenation, normalized weight, clearer skin, restful sleep, elevated mood and sex drive, increased energy, alleviated allergies, money saved otherwise spent on doctors visits. Sounds pretty awesome!
cleanse process?
The name of the game is nourishing while eliminating. A cleanse will kick start the process of releasing toxins from internal tissues into your bloodstream for removal. This process often results in periods of feeling and looking particularly unwell. Headaches, lethargy, skin breakouts...sound familiar? A Lucky You Nutritional Cleanse helps to balance these negative side effects by flooding your system with nutritionally rich liquids giving you the combined benefit of nourishing the body, while expediting the toxic waste. Doesn't your digestive system deserve a rest now and again and to be replenished with the best quality nutrition. Whole, unadulterated foods packed with enzymes, baby -- exactly what your body requires during a detox and precisely the ingredients that help to restore your energy and vitality. Lucky You is a detox program that allows you to continue to conduct a typical week in the life of YOU. And hey, by shaking a bit of junk from the trunk most clients shed a few kilos in the process, a welcome side effect for many.
when NOT to cleanse?
We do not recommend engaging in any cleanse program if you are pregnant, nursing, elderly, frail, dealing with a major health imbalance or illness, if you have one kidney, and/or if you are on heavy medications. Please ensure you consult our ingredient list if you have food allergies and remember some products contain nuts and all are produced at a nut making facility. We advise consulting with your doctor before beginning any cleanse program, especially if you are dealing with a health imbalance or crisis. Cleansing under supervision is wise and we advise, with a cleanse specialist.
about the juices?
Since our juice is live (meaning raw and un-pasteurised), it retains MORE vitamins and minerals, and contains enzymes. This ensures that you are drinking a product packed with power versus just another liquid. We also use a hydraulic press when creating these bottles of pure energy, which means that the juices are extracted at low levels of heat, protecting the integrity of the juice and its vital enzyme content. A fresh-pressed juice is superior to one that is juiced using centrifugal force (which heats up the juice, therefore killing more enzymes).
Ever had a green juice? If not, you and your health are missing out. The green juice is potent. It contains plant blood, or chlorophyll in a highly absorbable form. Green juice is also highly alkaline (flushing the acidity out). Green juice contains large quantities of enzymes. Green juice will stir up that trapped waste like nothing else on the planet. Green juice is nourishing, hydrating, mineralising, and oxygenating. Oh and did we mention, addicting? The more you have, the more the body starts to crave the good stuff. Drink the green juices on the program as much as you can! All cleanses are standardised. If you require a "green only" cleanse, please contact us to arrange.
cleanse or detox symptoms & reactions?
We are abstaining from food; therefore the body has to process very little. At this point it can turn its attention on releasing the old, trapped waste. When we are stirring up and loosening the old matter, if not enough leaves the body, we will feel detox symptoms or what we like to call cleanse reactions. Often times seemingly strange occurrences can happen. We can feel unusually low in energy, have headaches (classic caffeine withdrawal), and experience constipation. Below is a list of common symptoms you may or may not encounter:
Fatigue, Headaches, Dizziness, Constipation/Diarrhea, Skin eruptions, Rash/Hives, Cold Sores/Canker Sores, Dry mouth, Nausea, Insomnia, Runny nose, Aches and pains, Stiff Joints, Emotional Effects (anger, resentment, sadness, grief, anxiety, fear). *If you experience something which is not listed above, please contact us immediately.
In Chinese medicine (which is more than 5,000 years old), it is well known that each organ holds a different emotion. So therefore when the liver is processing during this time, we may feel bouts of anger, or perhaps the kidneys are releasing, and fear might pop up. We believe these are all signs that these emotions are being set free from the physical body.
cleanse enhancers.
Cleanse enhancers are important practices that encourage the toxins to leave the body and minimize cleanse reactions! Include all or a few...we leave that to your discretion. The more you move things out, however, the better you will feel in the end. We always recommend setting up a schedule prior to your start date and marking it in your calendar. Contact us for more information.

Lucky You Juice Cleanse is an Australian based, fresh pressed juice & cleanse company. Our mission is to make raw, fresh, unpasteurized juice accessible to everyone. We've turned many on to the beautiful benefits of juicing and the unbelievable advantages to consuming green juice ...OFTEN. We operate with simplicity as our general guideline. The finest raw fruit and vegetable ingredients juiced using the best equipment available ...that's it. To date we have followed a grass-roots movement and the company has been successfully operating on word of mouth referrals.
Lucky You was created after the founder, Heidy Jameel, determined there was a void in the Australian market for a nutrient dense, power packed green juice. Being a DIY juicer herself she was keenly aware of the work, mess and cost involved in daily juicing. She also conceded that she could not go without her daily green juices so it was fitting to make it her business. Having lived in the US for many years, where fresh pressed unpasteurized juice was accessible to many, it was obvious that Australians would benefit immensely from this concept. To enhance her experience she travelled to Puerto Rico to study and earn certification from the Ann Wigmore Natural Health Institute. Ann Wigmore was the pioneer of wheatgrass across the US and a leading voice in pushing the mandate of eating food that is "alive" to maintain health and longevity.
It was clear to Heidy that knowledge and education was not enough to bring nutrient dense juice to the market. The next step was to understand the many juicing methods and select the equipment that could process the juice without harming the enzymes and nutrient value. Following many months of research, Lucky You purchased a 300-kilo hydraulic press imported from the US. Lucky You is the ONLY juice & cleanse company in Australia to be able to offer raw, whole, unpasteurized juice crafted from this exceptional equipment.
Heidy holds an undergraduate degree in Economic's from the University of Wisconsin, Madison and an MBA from Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management (Beta Gamma Sigma).
