JAKARTA - Recently, the body's detox trend emerged by consuming juice. The trend is 3 days 3 clearance, which is body detox with juice consumption for three consecutive days.

Quoted from Shape, on Thursday, May 8, 2025, detoxification is needed to clean the body from toxins and harmful substances that settle in the body. Detoxification can be done by drinking enough water, consumption of fiber-rich vegetables and antioxidants.

In the 3 days 3 cleanse trend, detox is done by consuming juice made from vegetables, fruit, or combining fruit and vegetables. Some of the ingredients used are pineapple, green apples, cucumber, oranges, bits, kale, and others.

It is stated that the three-day juice detox effect occurs gradually. On the first day, the detox will be confused because it leaves food that is used to being consumed.

Then on the second day of detox with juice consumption, the body will feel lighter. On the third day, they will experience a drop in the metabolic system than the second day, and a stronger desire to eat because they feel the detox period is coming to an end.

However, dietist Kimberly Sasso said that the body's detox with juice for three days was just a temporary method and there was no clear evidence of the benefits.

There is an assumption that drinking juice can 'clean' the intestines and 'restart' the body's system, but both are not true. The liver and kidneys will do all the necessary cleaning automatically," said Kimberly Sasso.

Sasso suggested reconsidering the body's detoxification method by consuming juice for 3 days. According to him, there are more negative effects than benefits through this trend.

"This jus is made to reduce fiber content and leaves only a few vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients," he said.

Compared to consuming juice for body detoxification, Sasso prefers consumption of whole vegetables or fruit with high fiber content. Vegetables and fruit can be mixed with protein sources, such as protein or yogurt.
