The objective of a juicing/broth only protocol is to allow the digestive system to completely rest and restore. By removing the fibre and pulp from the fruit and vegetables, the nutrients bypass the digestive system. Although fibre is important, the benefits of a supervised fast a few times a year can be integral to optimising the digestive process in the big picture.
