The retreat sees many returnees who come for an annual reboot
THE TWO BIGGEST CAUSES OF ALL DISEASE ARE TOXICITY AND NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY, AND OUR PROGRAMME ADDRESSES BOTH OF THESE
“You get more good nutrients in one
juice than most people get in a day,” explains retreat manager Becky Lennox on our fi rst morning up the mountain. You might feel a bit hungry, although in my experience not as much as you’d expect. You might even get a headache for a day or two – withdrawal symptoms from the likes of sugar, salt, caffeine, alcohol. But while our stomachs might be used to more volume, inevitably our normal daily diet will include a good smattering of junk food – food with little nutritional value. We may feel physically full, but nutrient-wise and at a cellular level our body is quite likely starving.

a break from having to digest food; digestion takes up a huge amount of energy. When you juice, the nutrients go straight into your system, so your body can preserve its energy to heal itself. Not only that, but if you look at everything that goes into one glass of juice, would you really sit and eat your way through all that?”
