GREEN ZONE – These foods have been in the human diet for >10,000 years and should form the basis of your diet

AMBER ZONE – These partially adapted foods should only be eaten occasionally

RED ZONE – These foods are novel to humans and should be avoided

In the three days prior to the juice fast eat primarily food and drink from the GREEN ZONE with some food and drink (approx. 20%) from the AMBER ZONE. Cut out all food and drink from the RED ZONE. Watch the ‘how to juice fast’ video at Yoogaia here.
