What is cold-pressed juice?
Cold-pressed juicing is a slow, two-step process that minimally disrupts the natural state of the fruit or vegetable – The whole fruit or vegetable is mulched, or grinded, into a pulp. The pulp is then squeezed on a hydraulic press, which efficiently releases all the nutrients, vitamins and enzymes from the fiber of the produce. The result is a delicious, energizing, living juice.
What's the difference from juicing at home?
Most home juicers, and many commercial juicers used at juice bars, are centrifugal juicers. The blades spin at a very high speed, creating friction and heat during this short process of extracting juices. This heat can kill many of the living enzymes in the juice right away, and oxidation occurs at a much faster rate. Juice from a centrifugal juicer will last only a few hours, while cold-pressed juices maintain their freshness for 72 hours! Cold-pressed juice is more nutrient-rich and alive than any other juice on the planet.
How long is the juice good for?
Rainbow Juices are 100% RAW LIVING JUICE - they are not pasteurized, pascalized, pressurized or otherwise processed for a longer shelf-live. They will last 3-5ish days in the refrigerator with maximum potency in the first 3 days.
Where does your produce come from? Is it organic?
We source only local, organic produce directly from the farm to you. We take the time to get to know the folks who grow our food, and build a connection of trust and support. Together, we are working to keep our planet and its people happy and healthy.
How do you practice sustainability as a business?
Responsible, conscious choices are essential for the health of our bodies and our planet.
Purchasing our produce from local farms supports sustainable agriculture and cuts down on the fuel used to ship produce from far away. We minimize our waste by using and reusing glass jars. All packaging and cleaning products are earth friendly and biodegradable. We have also partnered with local urban growers to return all of our produce mulch to urban garden projects and backyard gardeners for composting. Please contact us if you would like to pick up organic compost material for your garden project.

How many days should I cleanse?
Cleansing is such an amazing experience that really connects you to the functions and needs of your body. While we recommend cleansing for at least 3 days to start, a 1 or 2 day cleanse can be a great way to maintain balance in your body and life. Adding a regular juice cleanse into your lifestyle is a great way to balance the effects of stress, pollution, and toxins that keep you from being your best. As you are receiving all your essential vitamins and nutrients, a juice cleanse can last several days and be extremely beneficial. A longer cleanse can help you break through harmful habits, rid your body of many impurities, and put you back in control of your own health and happiness.
Can everyone cleanse?
Cleansing is for everyone. For thousands of years, people have practiced methods of detoxing to promote a longer, healthier, happier life. In these times, cleansing can be a tool to bring balance in our bodies and our lives. It helps alleviate the effects of poor eating, stress, and environmental toxins. Cleansing helps us take control of our own health.
Pregnant or nursing moms and children should not cleanse. Little ones are just developing their immune systems and should not be exposed to toxins that are released during a cleanse. Drinking only a few juices per day with other healthy foods is a great way to give your body extra nutrients in these times.

What will I feel like during my cleanse?
For most people, the first few days of the cleanse can be challenging. The mind and digestive organs are so dependent on the ritual of eating solid meals, it takes them a minute to get on board. As the body adjusts and toxins are released, most feel a boost in energy. You feel clear minded, light, and radiant.
How will cleansing affect my daily routines?

What steps do I take after my cleanse is complete?
A wonderful part of cleansing is learning to listen to your body and understand what it needs. Once you get past the first few days and your mind gets on board, you will experience the rush of feeding your body with pure, living enzymes. Live it up! You will know when you are ready to ease back into solids by paying attention to the energy shifts in your body. After cleansing, you may look at food in a whole new light.
