I've done a little research on this.  Check out the link below, NOT to give this could-be-quack your hard-earned money, but strictly for educational purposes -- there's some interesting reading within that site.  I think you need a little more balance than just juice, anyway.

No.  In fact, it is a good thing.\nYou will be charging your body with glucose (sugar), and likely potassium, sodium, and other essential electrolytes.  So long as you actually workout (not just prance about the gym trying to attract attention), you will be fine.\n\nThe danger is in drinking too much of these drinks...and not working out.  You will overload your body with these electrolytes and actually dehydrate yourself...and potentially cause organ damage.\n\nGood luck, and stay active!

I would say that would be a bad idea. I don't think that it is good for you to drink it strait or anything. If you want to clean out your system drink lots and lots of water. That is the healthiest way to go.

Supposedly but it depends how you go about doing it.  For a short fast, it might be good to drink a lot of "cleansing" teas to help remove some of the toxins from your body.  \n\nGenerally it takes about two days to get rid of the superficial toxins, and as your blood sugar drops you'll get headaches and dizziness.  After two days this goes away and you'll feel clear and light, but a little weak. \n\nPast that it's an exercise in pure willpower.  Good for your spirit as well as your body, but not something you should do lightly.

There are many people who go on long fasts of over a month, it's difficult but not necessarily dangerous as long as you are in good health and drink enough fluids.  Many drink a weak fruit juice or tea with some honey in order to keep up their blood sugar levels, especially on longer fasts.\n\nIn fact it's often good not to eat for a day at a time, helps to clean out your digestive system, and eliminate toxins.

Do you really want advice or someone to pat you on the back and say it's a good thing so that your choice of going on a juice diet can be justified?\n\nFruit juices are not a good choice and should be avoided. All fiber is gone and all that's left is sugar. Let's look at Orange Juice for example.  For all the heavy advertising that OJ is a good source of vitamin C, folic acid, potassium, and other vitanutrients, OJ is also extremely high in sugar--more than the average candy bar. Apple Juice, Grape Juice, pineapple juice, and prune juice have even more.  \n\nAmong vegetable juices carrot juice is very high in sugar and should be avoided.  However, tomato juice is a good choice as it contains enough lycopene to make a difference.\n\nIf you lose weight like this is will be only temporary. Not healthy at all either. Also how is eating a balanced diet more boring that drinking sugary juice?

All of those energy drinks have massive amounts of caffine in them. If you drink them regularly, then yes, they are very bad for you because you'll be addicted to caffine. If you just drink it once a week, then there isn't anything wrong with that.

Not really,it is good for digestion though because of the enzyme bromelin.It is high in calories and sugar,and should be portion controlled,you should use the whole fruit rather then the juice,because it is extremely high in sugar content.It does not have any magic fat burning properties.Stick to veggie juices instead.

Yes it can lead into diabetes if you are not careful, if your blood suger gets low use glucose tabs, peanut butter, eggs, or juice to level it out, but never sugary candy, watch your candy intake, I too have this problem

Both are healthy, especially if you are drinking 100% pure juice.  However, eating the actual fruit will help to provide your body with the ruffage it needs to help keep your body clean as well.

Yes. Bottle gourd juice is good enough. Bitter gourd will reduce blood sugar too, but should be taken grdaually else causes loose motions. even bottle gourd juice should be started 10 ml and increase 10 ml every day.

Actually despite all the myths, it would be extremely healthy since your body has all the nutrients you need to go without any food for a month. The healthy part is you would not consume any unheallthy food at all.\n\nIt is a limited fast. A fast with only water may be slightly better, but you will still get almost all the benefits of fasting. Instead of getting opinions of people who never tried it, see site below with what 8 MDs say about fasting. It is a fast but with 3 V-8s a day added. Your body will still be dumping lots of toxins. Does V-8 have salt added? If so you do not want to use it. Click "home" page and look under anti-water for more on this. I am asuming it has only vegetables.

There are many ways to do this. First of all you want to make sure that you adopt a healthy lifestyle before going through a cleanse. Drinking clean water, eating all natural foods, getting 6-10 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables a day and staying physically active will maximize and sustain the benefits of your cleanse. During your "purification" you may get sick because of the flushing out process of removing toxins from the body. If you are not underweight, pregnant or nursing then including a 24 hour fast once a month to once a week can be very useful in detoxing. You may want to include a deep sweat with your fast. Be sure that you are drinking plenty of liquids during your short fast. Fasting and sweating has been used by many cultures to cleanses the body and initiate a change in ones life. Do some research and be cautious when beginning.

The fashion for fasting will soon die out.\nI suggest you check to see if you are getting a balanced diet. Your body will not be getting all the things it needs if you just drink juice and magnesium citrate.\nHave a look here:

You can drink too much water, especially if you drink it to fast. Drinking too much water can lead to a condition known as water intoxication and to a related problem resulting from the dilution of sodium in the body, hyponatremia
