Juicing can then help with weight loss, gut and skin health and boost your immune system. There were a variety of blends that average about 1,310 calories per day, however, as with any diet or lifestyle change, there may be risks involved.
Risks to Consider
Low-calorie intake can cause low blood sugar, leading to weakness, dehydration, hunger, exhaustion, and fainting. You may also experience protein deficiency or malnourishment. You must also be careful adding certain fruits or vegetables, like spinach and beets because they are high in oxalate, which can increase the risk of kidney problems.
