I've been eating out way too much recently (and drinking quite a bit in
the process), so I decided last week that it was time to do a proper cleanse. But, I really didn't want to create my own homemade concoctions this time around... So, who to call?
After a good deal of 'Googling', I chose to go with Blueprint Cleanse. They're an NYC based company that specializes in cleansing with a modern, playful (yet professional) approach. And, not the least bit granola, Blueprint is a refreshing change from the standard cleansing companies that promise the sun, the moon, and the stars in a bottle of their spiritually-charged juice.
I chose to do the Foundation Cleanse (there are three different levels you can choose from) for three days and it was wonderfully rejuvenating. I still feel great from the cleanse and it's actually inspired me to eat a bit healthier and drink a little less bubbly, which is something in itself as I generally have zero self-control.
Blueprint delivers (up to) a three-day supply of juice blends (six per day) the day before you start and also include a cute little 'cheat sheet' with what you can nibble on if you're absolutely desperate for solid food or a sip of coffee (amazing, no?). A highly recommend pick-me-up if you're looking to start the season off well.
Cost: $65/day for 1-6 days.

i'm wondering if they would ship to vancouver - do you know?
have you tried any other of their cleanses since the foundation one?

I don't know if they would, but you can also do this sort of thing at home. I've heard the Martha's Vineyard Detox is great (www.mvdietdetox.com), if you've got a juicer... :)

I'm on the third and last day of my Renovation level Blueprint Cleanse. The first day was the hardest, but I feel fantastic and totally energetic! I've had some experience with raw foods and juicing, but I was really indulging way too much in the nasties and having issues with acid reflux and indigestion, so I decided to do the cleanse. The juices actually taste good. The green juice is a little hard to take the second and third day, but your body wants it. I did start watching my diet before the cleanse like the website suggests so that it wasn't such a shock to the system. I had a little headache the first night and have been really hungry everyday between 2 and 4, but I get through it (especially with 1 snack from the cheat sheet) and I'm totally thinking differently about how I want to approach eating solid foods again. My brother and his roommate have both tried it and we will all be repeat customers. I highly recommend it, and this is coming from someone who lives above a pizza place complete with delicious smells wafting into her bedroom all day and all night. Happy Detoxing!

I couldn't agree more! I've done the Blueprint Cleanse a few times since this post and am totally addicted to the results (as are many of my friends!). It's really quite impressive.

I can't wait to get on the blueprint method of cleansing, it is good for cleansing our system and if we can loose few pounds, it is a bonus.

I'm in NC - does anyone know of a brand that will ship a cleanse (drink or packet- anything) down here?

very informative, interesting beauty book full of advice on excersize, diet, hair and skin care. I especially liked the illistrated excercizes. The advice she gives still stands true today at the turn of the millenium.
