TV Nutritionist backs Edinburgh juice bars

Two of the capital’s healthy living experts have teamed up to offer a full life detox programme to the people of Edinburgh, launching on Monday 28th January.

In her newest book Life Detox, Edinburgh based TV nutritionist Amanda Hamilton outlines a 7 day plan incorporating fresh fruit drinks and smoothies into a daily routine designed to fully detox the body. In collaboration with Hamilton, Juiced Up smoothie bars across the city have agreed to produce and provide the smoothies recommended in the week long plan.

Detoxers can visit any of the city outlets where Juiced Up will be offering body purifying drinks such as the Digestive Delight smoothie, Ultimate Liver Lover and the Detox Zinger from the new 7 day detox menu available in store.

Juiced Up, which operates three outlets across the city, offers a fast and convenient option for those on the move. Their range of fruity drinks, mixed booster shots and super smoothies use a number of fresh ingredients and herbal boosters including energizing ginseng, immune boosting Echinacea, stress relieving Ginkgo Bilboa and the slimming aid Chromium. Juiced Up is also the only place in Edinburgh to serve the Acai berry – often described as the ‘worlds healthiest fruit’ - in a drinkable form with few other stockists of the fruit in the Capital.

Juiced Up outlets can be found at the following locations:

38 Hanover Street, Edinburgh
100 Bruntsfield Place, Edinburgh
Ocean Terminal, Ocean Drive, Leith, Edinburgh

Life Detox, written by Amanda Hamilton and Sandy Newbigging, is published by Piatkus and is available for £12.99.
