Detox juices; cleansing juices; Toxin Flush smoothies... there's a whole list of names to describe this range of concoctions that claims to help with your weight loss and cleansing your body.

In Episode 3 of AWLG, we discuss how juicing could make you end up gaining weight if you are not careful and alternatives for those who don't fancy juicing or drinking green smoothies.
