- In 2015, the pressed-juice industry was estimated at $100 million a year. With the trend seemingly on the rise, the question lingers: do juice cleanses and detoxes work? Subscribe for more Sharp Science: on.mash.to/subscribe
We asked Doctor Mikhail Varshavski, a family medicine physician at Overlook Medical Center who's also known as Doctor Mike, what his take was on the expensive health trend.

If you had called this juicy questions with doctor mike you wouldve gotten so many views
Lmao xD
genius
HAHAHAHAHA
Lol what a miss
That’s cute… but he is so wrong of what he says.. it will 100% help cure things like cancer and diabetes etc .. It does help with weight loss and to reset the body and to purify the body
As someone who has a severe auto-immune disease, juicing has definitely helped me. I think some of your comments are geared at someone hypothetically staying on a juice-only diet. Most people who juice do so for short periods of times. Not trying to rain on the parade here but I can't tell you how well juicing sprees have helped me.
And it's different for everyone. If you live off of coffee, fast food, etc, you'll see a huge improvement in all sorts of areas. Finally giving your body what it needs goes a long way.
* I wouldn't ever buy juices from a store though. Way overpriced and if you're going to juice, may as well make sure nothing else is added (like sugar, etc). And I am not saying juicing has some magical healing powers either.
@@iamclaytonray i believes it do my cousin beat stage 4 breast cancer just by juicing diet exercise lifestyle change
@@alphonsodurden6294 father of a friend beat cancer with lifestyle change and juices. He didn’t get chemotherapy because he was against it. So I’m gonna drink my fresh juices
@@AAMLer you better believe it how you holding up
@@alphonsodurden6294 I’ve been juicing for over 10 years now... since I was about 16.... I’m 26 now and my skin and overall appearance is significantly better then my peers.

Naomie Armand lol
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
I think for me the juice cleanse was a great way to reset my body after a lot of bad choices during the holiday season
I’m trying to spread the word on this fake paid off bought off so called doctor Mike, blow the whistle he’s been bought and paid off to lie to people and he’s a great liar and wonderful candidate for the NWO because he’s Russian and easy on the eyes very attractive. But he has nothing but lies do the opposite of what he says
It wasn't the juice cleanse. It was you stopping the "bad choices". Your body would feel better naturally without the bullshit cleanse fad.
The only pounds you lose are of the monetary kind (in the UK anyway).
Haha touchè
LMAO
Why only 34 likes??? That video is GOLDEN. No bullshit talk, no biased claims, no half-truths. Just science on a language that's easy to understand for the ordinary people. Good job.
Thank you for the comment! Appreciate it lots =]
people find hard facts and scientifically backed up information boring.
@@DoctorMike I know it's 4 years since this vid but there are people saying that they find it funny hearing a "doctor" talk about nutrition. I asked them,"Why? He is a doctor and he knows more than you." So this person is claiming that doctors don't learn about nutrition properly and I asked him to show me evidence and does he have an MD. They got defensive and actually got nasty with me. We have so much ignorant people in this world and it's so frustrating that people won't educate themselves.
WTF are you talking about? He just makes stuff up..
A doctor talking nutrition is hilarious.
Right
So true!
Meaning?
He is a doctor, he knows more than you
@@d3bzvnzyl_12 whooshhhhhhh
@@Proverbspsalms you alright?
Does whoooshhh mean you need to pee?
4 days into my juice fast. Lost 9 pounds so far. Blood pressure went to 112/79 and has stayed around that range for the last 3 days. I check it several times a day. And I have been on BP meds for over 10 years. Our medical system is either clueless or criminal. I’ll take results over an MD behind someone’s name any day
Western medical system is a business
It’s almost like when you consume only something with a few calories while fasting, you lose weight.
This is the equivalent of saying, “I’m fasting on apple juice, it’s been a week since I’ve started. It’s not the fact that I’m only drinking this juice alone 2 times a day and barely taking in calories, it’s the juice itself”
You are drinking only juice instead of taking solid foods that tend to contains way more calories than any juice, so of course you are losing weight. Like duh... 🤦♂️
Amen! Congratulations on your progress, would love another update.
I use juicing for my gastroparesis as a meal. I wasn’t able to have solids for a long time and did benefit from my Pressed Juicery Juice and my own smoothies.
Saavycupcake You definitely needed them! You didn’t buy them to “detox” or lose weight tho.
At least they're better than sodas.
Michael Young hardly, juice is equivalent to soda, it may contain some limited vitamins and minerals but not enough to make it worth it. Better to eat the fruit whole.
Maybe. A cup of apple juice has about the same amount of sugar as a can of coke though.
Depends on t he juice you're drinking really. A lot of store bought ones yes, it has a lot of added sugar. But if you're making it yourself at home and throwing in veggies, yes, way better than the soda you're drinking.
Same reason I give for people who hate on people who drink sparkling water.... It's better than soda, and doesn't taste like syrup and no sugar. (people like to hate on la croix for some reason)
karen bennett LOL don't say "Hardly" if you really think soda is anywhere close to a juice you're VERY ignorant
Vegatable juice yes, fruits juice not so much. Fruit juice is basically sugar water with some vitamins.
Even the fact that people think drinking fruit as juices/smoothies makes any difference to eating them whole makes me sad...
Xamurai a green smootgie (made at home with minimal sugars) could aid in getting your 5 a day.... Which many people dont do. sooo thats a plus 😄
Smoothies are great for tricking picky eaters into having fruit or vegetables they normally wouldn't eat.
That's how I consume my spinach because it tastes disgusting on its own so it makes a difference because then I don't have to taste the gross vegetables because they're mixed in with yummy fruits😂😂😂
And also the above comment is accurate too.
Palesa Makhetha There are so many delicious veggies though. Why force yourself to eat something you don’t like?
wait, there are people who think that? I would love to hear the reasoning behind that
I drink smoothies cuz i have slow digestion and smoothies help me get some nutrients. Eating whole foods takes forever to digest. Juice cleanses are stupid and arent medically good. Just felt i'd share. I take so many laxatives because i have chronic digestion problems among other things.
I get that you shouldn't turn to fads for some kind of miracle but I also think if you're someone who doesn't eat the right amount of fruits and veggies ( like 90% of Americans) throwing a bunch in a blender and drinking them instead of grabbing a four for four at Wendy's is a healthy alternative
honestly burgers at wendys (no soda though) is better than drinking 5 glasses of fruit juices a day for you.
Why m i watching this.. i myself is a doctor..i knw all this..
..oh wait.. Dr.Mike..
For a doctor you spell pretty shitty and type like a 15 year old
English probably isn't her first language.
No excuse. Spell check is a thing

@@tanyavandermerwe8330 lol relax. This is TH-cam, not an academic essay.
Thanks im watching this before buying some 100$ juice...
Me too! I was just about to buy some juices that's worth $100 plus.
If a person just wants to take In some lower calories one day and not totally fast, which can also be really healing for the body, I think juices Are a great idea. Assuming the person doesn’t expect something to magical to happen just because they ingested juice.
There was a detox ad before this video. Haha. So classic!
Even if it's a marketing technique the placebo helps people feel like theyre doing something. Also I started working at a smoothie shop last week and it completely changed me. i already eat healthy but working there changed my cravings from unhealthy foods to raw fruits and veggies. I straight up crave a plate of carrots and snap peas instead of candy or chips.
Same with multivitamins. Only take them if you lack vitamins.
So it's pretty much the modern equivalent of snake oil.
YES!
Basically if something does not require a prescription it probably doesnt work
The real snake oil is Big Pharma:
Pharma Not in Business of Health, Healing, Cures, Wellness
th-cam.com/video/Qmi3ihrUHJU/w-d-xo.html
Deadly Medicines and Organized Crime: How Big Pharma has Corrupted Healthcare by Dr Peter Gøtzsche: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4046551/ "The book is comprehensive, with worldwide examples across many categories of drugs of how the pharmaceutical industry operates. ....But most important, it shows us that evidence-based medicine and guidelines have been hijacked, as the evidence base has been systematically distorted."
Dr Peter Gøtzsche exposes big pharma as organized crime in this video: th-cam.com/video/dozpAshvtsA/w-d-xo.html
@@you_mad make sure to eat all your opiums, amphetamines, anti depressants & antibiotics mmmmmmmmmm healthy
One big question is, who would want to oil a snake in the first place? ;P
I once farted on a bagel.
Damn
Whenever he says “unnecessary” I replace it with bullshit
Whoever filmed this, you should have given the doc a signal for which camera to look at! His eyes are all-over the place.
Doctors are not traditionally trained in nutrition but rather are trained in medicine and treating symptoms of disease with medicine.
I had diverticulitis, I went on a juice diet now I don’t have anymore
The juice cleanses have helped with my chronic constipation but I don't believe they can cure everything
It helps your chronic constipation because you taking in fibre which helps your bowels work
@@d3bzvnzyl_12 do you also have answer for how these helped someone like me who suffered with eczema for 10 yrs.
Or your doctors know everything.
We Indians believe in ayurveda and lastly I tried ayurveda and naturopathy for eczema treatment instead of wasting my money on allopathic medicines.
So definitely one way is not always the best way. Things work, just be open minded.
😍😍😍 this video, and your expression at the beginning was priceless.
Love dr Mike’s eye rolls. I do exactly the same w my patients 😆
...Well I wouldn't buy bottled juices. But I do make my own juices daily, and once a year do a week or so of a juice fast. Absolutely L🧡VE vegetable juicing, the very BEST thing I have ever done to improve my life and health.
Juice - not juices! That’s like saying cheeses. Please stop
Thank you mike:) It helped a lot. Next time you tell me.
the ad that played before the video was on what superfoods to eat to detox your body lmao
I know this video is a bit old, so sorry for necro-posting. But I thought it was relevant to mention that I recently saw a nutritionest, who said pretty much exaclt the same as Dr Mike. She said that "liver cleansing diets" are pointless, because that's what your liver does - removes the "toxins" from your system. Just make sure you have a well rounded diet.
"If i drink this juices i'll be closer to my dad"
"No :)"
Thank you
"mmm feces" WTF???

I got an ad for a vegetable detox powder before the video 🙈
its been proven that a plant based diet is better and can make your skin healthier. Doctor really want you to have those procedures.
Dressed like a doctor. Def legit.
I love when Dr. Mike makes fun of actors wearing stethoscopes for no reason... wait... LOL
0:52 that’s a nice green
Thank you Dr. Mike
Its already been proven juicing works. Make your own juice
Salvadorian elder homemade green juice cleaned me out seriously . Bathroom for days , lost bloat felt great . Medical industry can't make money if your using juice
I need Dr. Mike to give me a physical!
My friends’ mother drank too much water
She actually died
I’m not kidding. This actually happened. True story
💀💀💀
Me personally don't really like to eat chopped fruits and I don't always has all the ingredients to make smoothie for myself so I think the pressed juice is the best option
I literally showed my mom thousands ofvideos were doctors say that detoxes don’t work and she still thinks they do
Because she can think for herself and doesn’t need random videos of people who don’t care about her health telling her what to do 🤷🏽♀️
Melinda Thomas exactly lol .. go mom!!
@@yngclothing right!
If he lives in her house. I mean I mean if she lives in her house. Because I don’t know if that’s a boy or a girl, then she should put him or her out for trying to turn her into a brainwashed 🧟♀️
@@Proverbspsalms so like how y'all are running? Saying it's working by just "flushing toxins" and 100% trusting that? From what it sounds like the mom might be over doing it and may be dipping into a ED. But I mean f7ck them right? Becuase your zombie ass can't care about no one but themselfes. And telling a mom to stop talking to her kid "becuase they are turning her into a zombie" is the dumbest thing and most selfish disgusting thing I've heard in awhile don't have kids.
I think the biggest benefit from juices is that it can alter bad habits and correct course to engaging in new ones... Like if your eating emotionally, have 3 coffees a day and drink soda at every meal, challenging yourself to go on a 3-5-7 day juice cleanse will jolt your body into a reset and make it way easier for you to start new habits... like even if after the cleanse you decide to replace your breakfast every day with a green juice... that's huge
So basically yes juices work.
3:23 lmaooo Dr.mike 😂😂
Thank you for the videos. Could you do a video on how much is "too much H2O"?, Size of animal protein in you plate e.g some people claim the right size is a poker card.
Me:My gout use to be painful i change my diet and run for a mile every morning.
I think being aware of what you are putting in your body helps you to heal..just sharing i see a connection with the conversation about eating healthy.🙃
Anyone who debunks juice diets I 100 % guarantee promise you they have not done one for more than a wk. I promise.
Love this video! So happy Dr.Mike did this - he always has great advice. While I don't do a full "cleanse" I love drinking those healthy juices to get nutrients in my body when I haven't been eating enough of them. Also *guilty 🙋* I'll drink juices for 3 days before vacation to flatten my tummy and it works 💁
He has TERRIBLE advice...
I bought 4 healthy juice drinks , celery, turmeric, and carrot and another juice. Drank about half of all 4 and the next day I had the runs.(too much of a good thing is not good)
I didn't mean to laugh but it can happen from the fiber. Fruits and veggies will definitely clean you right out!...some more quickly than others. Good for the body though!☺
This was helpful. Videos like this stop me from impulse decisions and instagram marketing. 😅
Mashable - the trusted source all all things nutrition and health.
Thats not an argument. Its like saying “whoever said eating fruits and vegetables help you look young and live longer is clearly living in fantasy land. If that was the case, people wouldnt spend hundreds of dollars on creams thousands of dollars on medical procedures…”
Heck yeah Dr. Mike!
Got rid of my sleep issue
Heartburn is gone perm.
Bp returned to normal
Bpm 70
Ox 99%
They worked for me a raw fresh pressed apple juice with celery and cucumber, lost 8 pounds of bloat in 3 days.
This is odd… with all of the testimonials online and people who’s done it for long periods of time…, with AMAZING health results. Even the “FATHER OF MEDICINE” Hippocrates said that “YOUR FOOD IS YOUR MEDICINE” it’s strange that a doctor is speaking in a manipulative tongue saying that it isn’t beneficial, he’s from the “chemical doctrine” community.
I guarantee he’s regurgitating what he learned in school instead of doing his own research and actually KNOWING.
I get it… his bottom line is to keep you coming to people like him. If you knew you could heal yourself and rod yourself of disease with plants and herbs and alkaline foods and water, there would be no need for him.🤷🏿♂️
Sounding like Jilly Juice 2.0 claiming that some juiced fruits will just cure diseases
I bet if your pet got hit by a car you'd put a crystal in its ass thinking it would revive it lol.
I started this video at work and then reloaded it at home later on a different machine to finish. BOTH times the algorithm, I guess based on the title, gave me pre-video ads for cleanses or some equally quacky trend. Also there's a bar of ads under the video that are all 'Shop "juice cleanse'" with link to various "Jus by Julie" products and other fake juice crap. Sigh.
anyone else have "Shop juice cleanses"
I was never fat but, when I was 6 years old I was very very heavy. Like 64 kilograms
Hi doctor mike
Dr mike can you talk about the dark circle under kids eyes
A lack of sleep?
Maybe a vitamin deficiency, lack of sleep or maybe not a big issue...maybe ask a pediatrician about it just to be safe.
I don't believe in these. I personally just make green smoothies but as meal replacements when I'm on the go and need something quick.
Well Jay Kordich seemed to live a great life and you could see the energy coming out of his eyebrows.
Serious question then, if I am eating not as well as I want to be, can juicing be a way to decrease my appetite when I eat? I often have large portions and weightloss becomes stagnant for me cause I lose a little, then just stay there for a long time. Can juicing help me to feel fuller faster after 4-5 days of juicing?
try eating the fruits and vegetables, fibre in them helps you feel full
I think smoothies are definitely better than juices! When you drink a smoothie, you’re at least getting all the fiber from the fruit and vegetables that you put in it. Where as in a juice where you’re just extracting all the sugar and drinking that. I avoid juices because I don’t think they taste as good and they’re a waste. But I love a smoothie every now and again... especially if it gets me my spinach!
Well, i have experienced tremendous energy for physical activity during my juice feasts doctor Mike. And total rejuvenation at the same time..but i was only drinking fruit juice..
"well.. doctor mike... you have ruined juices to me", then look at mike's face. lol
What about natural yogurt? Vitagen? Goat's milk?
Juicing helped me alot.
Juicing is surely beneficial for your health as you are not eating crap food and have much easier digestion, What I am surely against is the industry behind it. Part of the benefit of juicing/eating far more veggies and fruit is the change in lifestyle by taking time to prepare them, exercising, and getting to know what your body responds to.
My kids have Greek yogurt and frozen fruits shakes after school as snack
Maybe you should of asked somebody experienced in the field
Someone who’s literal job is to understand how the body functions
I have a friend on the snake juice diet. She did lose a ton of weight. Is this safe??? I am worried she may become bulimic over time
I actually do have a lot more energy when I’m juicing
0:38 when your girlfriend has a handsome friend😂😂
🤣 Love it!
Dr. Mike I have a bad kidney should I drink some cleanses
Researched, made a huge fruit list, got dressed for going to supermarket. Then this video popped into timeline..
Aww baby mike 😍
I just wanna drink some juice 😭😭😭
Interesting because I would bet money that Mike hasn’t actually tried a juice cleanse.
If anyone has actually tried really increasing their supply of fresh fruits, vegetables and juice on a large level, they know how impactful it is. It will speak for itself once you experience it, much louder than a TH-cam doctor.
I just like drinking juices and smoothies because they taste good :D + i have a sweet tooth
I believe a juice cleanse can work for those trying to transition into a more whole foods diet after years of junk food diets. It basically gives your digestive system and immune system a boost of nutrients and gears you up to better enjoy healthier food options. I know I for one had a hard time transitioning to a healthier diet when I was younger because everything tasted to bland as opposed to the processed foods I ate several times a day. I wish I would of known of a juice cleanse when I was younger and it might of been a bit of a smoother transition haha lots of trial and error of what foods I did and didn't like and cooking them. Now whenever I go down that rabbit hole of junk food for whatever reason, I start a juice cleanse and it helps me appreciate food in its whole form.
Explained nicely 😁 read an apple a day! It’s a good one
You had me at 2.6 million IG followers 🤣 🤣 🤣
I love pressed juicery
If juicing, n blending fruits don't help what else...foods we eat these days are horrible, so if you have a digest issue it helps drinking fruit juice or smoothies tremendously. I have had digestive issues as a young man, eating meat, rice all sorter disgusting foods you do not poopoo freely; you do lots of screaming when you are trying to defecate; it made it hard.
i wanna have a healthy relationship with you DR. ❤️✨
Dr. Mike, are there any benefits from taking a hgh supplement? Thank you in advance 😊
I really liked this video Dr. Mike. You are gorgeous!!!!!!
Or just like Dude Where's My Car? Squeeze the juice
Yes believe so
What if you do a cleanse to start a proper diet you know as a fresh start after eating junkie and fatty foods
