It’s generally not advisable to do a juice fast during your period. During menstruation, your body is already undergoing significant changes and naturally requires extra nourishment, including enough iron, healthy fats, and protein to support blood loss and energy levels. A juice fast—while rich in vitamins—often lacks these essential nutrients, which could leave you feeling weak, fatigued, or lightheaded during your cycle.

Instead, focusing on balanced, wholesome meals that include fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, and good fats is better to help your body recover and feel its best. Hydrating with fresh juices alongside solid meals is a great way to support your system without depriving it.

If you're considering a cleanse or fast, scheduling it for another cycle is usually best when your energy and nutrient reserves are stronger.

Listen to your body, and prioritise nourishment over restriction, especially during menstruation!
