There are plenty of foods you can enjoy on your 9-day or 30-day cleanse. In addition to what’s recommended in the program guide that comes with your cleanse system below are a few more suggestions.

ON CLEANSE DAYS…
Avoid all meats. Keep the above listed foods to a minimum on Cleanse Days for best results BUT respect your physical hunger and feed yourself when needed (this is NOT a fast). If you have low blood sugar or feel like you have to eat, stick to eating Isagenix Snacks, the foods recommended here and perhaps one mini meal. Just keep it to what’s required to feel satisfied; if you eat too much, you may disrupt the cleansing process and not get the results you are hoping for. If food in addition to the Isagenix snacks is needed on Cleanse Days then choose from the following:
a) Fruits combined with nuts (almonds or walnuts)
b) Raw vegetables or salad
c) Celery with raw almond or natural peanut butter
d) Hard-boiled eggs
e) Salba (can be taken alone or added to your salad)
Note: These are the foods to have if you feel very hungry, or have blood sugar issues when cleansing. Please contact your cleanse coach if you need additional suggestions or have questions.
