OR AKA: THE INSIDE TRACK ON THE 5 DAY JUMP START —
WHO IS THIS PROGRAM FOR?
THE ORGANIC PHARMER 5 DAY JUMP START IS FOR ANYONE IN GENERAL GOOD HEALTH LOOKING TO FLOOD THEIR SYSTEM WITH THE HIGHEST QUALITY, ORGANIC PLANT-BASED FOODS, WITHOUT HAVING TO DO ANY OF THE HEAVY LIFTING. MEANING NO MEAL PLANNING, GROCERY SHOPPING, COOKING, OR CLEAN-UP. ALL THE MEALS ARRIVE FULLY PREPARED, SO ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS OPEN THE CONTAINER (PLATE IT IF YOU DESIRE - I RECOMMEND PLATING MEALS FOR MAXIMUM EATING PLEASURE) AND ENJOY. THE CONVENIENCE FACTOR IS A HUGE PERK OF THE PROGRAM, AND ALLOWS YOU TO SIMPLIFY YOUR LIFE (FOR A FEW DAYS), WHILE STILL TAKING THE VERY BEST CARE OF YOUR HEALTH.
*NOTE: IF AN INDIVIDUAL IS FACING ANY HEALTH CHALLENGES, IT’S ALWAYS BEST TO CONSULT WITH A PHYSICIAN BEFORE MAKING ANY BIG DIETARY CHANGES.
IS THIS A CALORIE RESTRICTED PROGRAM?
NO. THE ORGANIC PHARMER 5 DAY JUMP START IS NOT ABOUT RESTRICTING CALORIES OR EATING LESS. IT’S ABOUT EATING HEALTHILY, AND FUELING YOUR BODY WITH HIGH QUALITY, NUTRIENT-RICH FOOD THAT WILL KEEP YOU FEELING FULL, ENERGIZED, SATISFIED AND CALM ALL DAY LONG. YOU WILL NOT FEEL HUNGRY OR EDGY ON THIS PROGRAM.
WILL I LOSE WEIGHT ON THIS PROGRAM?
THIS ISN'T A WEIGHT LOSS PLAN, ALTHOUGH YOU MAY DROP A POUND OR TWO SIMPLY BY ELIMINATING ALL PROCESSED FOOD, SUGAR, AND OTHER PRO-INFLAMMATORY FOODS SUCH AS GLUTEN, CORN, DAIRY, EGGS, AND SOY FROM YOUR DIET FOR A FULL FIVE DAYS.
CAN I DRINK COFFEE ON THIS PROGRAM? I NEED MY MORNING FIX!
I HEAR YOU! YES, YOU CAN DRINK COFFEE ON THIS PROGRAM, BUT I WOULD SUGGEST YOU START YOUR MORNING WITH WARM WATER + LEMON, FOLLOWED BY THE GREENS JUICE ON THE PROGRAM. IF YOU STILL WANT THE COFFEE, HAVE IT! BUT ENJOY IT WITH A SPLASH OF NUT MILK (COCONUT, ALMOND, HEMP, CASHEW, MACADAMIA), RATHER THAN DAIRY AS THIS IS DESIGNED AS A #DAIRYFREE PROGRAM.
WHAT ABOUT ALCOHOL?
THIS PROGRAM ISN’T A CLEANSE, DETOX OR DIET, SO IF YOU WANT TO ENJOY A GLASS OF WINE OR A COCKTAIL WHILE ON THE PROGRAM YOU CAN. BUT IF YOU WANT TO REAP THE FULL BENEFITS OF THE PROGRAM (CLEARER SKIN, LESS BLOATING, ENERGY, CLARITY, BETTER SLEEP), BEYOND THE CONVENIENCE FACTOR, YOU MAY WANT TO LIMIT OR DITCH THE ALCOHOL FOR THE FIVE DAYS.
I WANT TO EAT MORE PLANT FOODS, BUT I’M NOT SURE I’M READY TO GIVE UP ALL ANIMAL FOODS FOR FIVE DAYS. DOES ORGANIC PHARMER OFFER A PROGRAM THAT CAN WORK FOR ME?
ORGANIC PHARMER PROMOTES A PLANT RICH, WHOLE FOODS LIFESTYLE, BUT THEY ALSO RECOGNIZE THAT PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT DIETARY PREFERENCES. IN ORDER TO MAKE A PLANT STRONG DIET ACCESSIBLE TO EVERYONE, THEY OFFER A FEW HIGH QUALITY ANIMAL FOOD ITEMS ON THEIR MENU, INCLUDING A DELICIOUS HOUSE-CURED SALMON TARTINE AND AN ORGANIC, TARRAGON CHICKEN SALAD WRAP, WHICH CAN BE SWAPPED OUT FOR OTHER ITEMS ON THE PLAN. BUT, IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE FOOD ON THE PROGRAM, EVEN WITH THE THESE SUBSTITUTIONS, WILL BE PLANT-BASED, ALLOWING YOU TO BECOME BETTER ACQUAINTED WITH THE FOOD AND FLAVORS OF A PLANT FORWARD LIFESTYLE.
I’M INTERESTED IN THE PROGRAM, BUT NOT SURE I WANT TO COMMIT TO 5 DAYS. CAN I DO IT FOR LESS DAYS?
YOU’RE IN LUCK. THEY ALSO OFFER A 3 DAY PROGRAM, WHICH IS A CONDENSED VERSION OF THE 5 DAY PROGRAM.
DO I NEED TO ANYTHING TO PREPARE FOR THIS PROGRAM?
UNLIKE A CLEANSE WHERE IT’S RECOMMENDED THAT DO CERTAIN THINGS IN ADVANCE TO MAKE THE PROCESS EASIER (EASE OFF CAFFEINE, EAT LIGHTER, DRINK MORE WATER), THE “FIVE DAY JUMP START” DOESN’T REQUIRE PRE-PROGRAM BEHAVIORAL CHANGES. IN FACT, THE MEAL PROGRAM IS MEANT TO SLIP SEAMLESSLY INTO YOUR BUSY LIFESTYLE!
WHAT IS THE COST FOR THE PROGRAM?
5 DAY JUMP START: $350
INCLUDES FIVE DAYS OF PLANT-BASED MEALS, SNACKS, COLD PRESSED JUICES AND NUT MILKS.
3 DAY JUMP START: $210
INCLUDES THREE DAYS OF PLANT-BASED MEALS, SNACKS, COLD PRESSED JUICES AND NUT MILKS.

HOW WILL I GET MY MEALS. DO THEY DELIVER, OR DO I NEED TO PICK IT UP?
YES! CONVENIENCE IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST BENEFITS OF A PREPARED MEAL PLAN! ORGANIC PHARMER WILL DELIVER THE MEALS STRAIGHT TO YOUR DOOR. IF YOU LIVE LOCALLY, THEY ARE BASED IN RYE BROOK NY. YOU ARE ALSO WELCOME TO STOP IN, SAY HI, AND PICK THEM UP YOURSELF.
