3 Juice Cleanses That Won’t Drive You Bananas
Update: A summer cleanse is a great way to kick off your work week! This story was originally published on March 15, 2012. News flash: The average American is still carrying four to six unwanted pounds (or two to three, if you're metric) somewhere around the waistline.

There’s a lot of discussion over the efficacy of a juice cleanse, but that hasn’t stopped millions of folks from turning to a week of bottled produce. Until recently, one result was virtually guaranteed: crankiness. For most folks, a day without solid food is like a day without, well, food. That’s why we checked out these programs, which offer more than just bottles of green and the vague promise of health.
