The perks of juicing are listed on the reboot website and include health rewards such as calorie reduction without nutrient deprivation, the increased consumption of fresh foods instead of those with preservatives, and the escalation of micronutrients in the body. Cross, of course, isn't the only resource for juicing, though he may have had a hand in kicking off the trend. Joe Cross' juicing efforts were documented back in 2010, and Cross has since created a second film, Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead 2, released in 2014. The film depicted Cross' experience in turning to juicing for weight loss and other health benefits. The reboot program, subsequent website and online support group was founded by Australia's Joe Cross after the success of the documentary 'Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead'.

I promised I would be her primary resource - I would research the topic and dutifully answer any questions along the way.
I began to devise a plan in which I would live vicariously through my friend and write about her experience.
'For at least five days, Sort of a healthy way to kick-off the new year.' 'I think I wanna do it,' Hicks confessed. Months later, however, it seemed Hicks was reconsidering the idea. Hicks is a friend who, at the time I mentioned my late-night documentary binge session, merely laughed at my odd interest. 'I saw that documentary you told me about. Cross survived on nothing but juices for 60 days during his juice fast.'Oh, I forgot to tell you,' Tracie Hicks, in a conversation over lunch nearly a month later. He travelled in a truck with a cameraman, a sound guy, a juicer and a generator. For his juice fast, he decided to travel across America while talking to people about their attitudes toward food. Under the supervision of his doctor and a team that monitored his blood work regularly, he started the juice fast in May 2005. In 2005 when he was 39, the doctors told him that with his health, he would die early and he decided to consume only juice for 60 days in order to improve his health. He wanted to get off medication as he believed that the medication or doctors were not able to offer a cure for his condition. According to Cross, he believed that his eating habits had caused his illness and he wanted to change his lifestyle. Cross was a smoker and consumed alcohol regularly.
His daily diet mainly consisted of processed foods. and unsuccessfully tried various diets in fits and starts. He spent his 30s trying traditional and non-traditional medicine to solve his illness. In 2005, Cross weighed 22 stone (310 pounds = 140 kilograms) and suffered from an autoimmune condition, chronic urticaria, for which he had been taking medications such as the steroid prednisone for years. In February 2014, Cross released his book titled The Reboot with Joe Juice Diet: Lose Weight, Get Healthy and Feel Amazing that became a New York Times best-seller but right now he's focused on his engineering. He is the founder and CEO of Reboot with Joe, a health and lifestyle brand at the same time Joe was also an engineer working with different companies on a rig.įollowing the release of his documentary, Cross has published six books about juicing. He is most known for his documentary Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead in which he tells the story of his 60-day juice fast. Joe Cross (born May 30, 1966) is an Australian entrepreneur, author, filmmaker, and wellness advocate.
