After downing the magical elixir on an empty stomach each morning (as per the Medical Medium’s advice) the 37-year-old began experiencing a very *unpleasant* side effect.
“I tried celery juicing and it empties your bowels in a very violent way all day long,” she explained in an interview with Health. “I like things that taste good, and that just doesn’t taste good.”

The experience taught the mum-of-three to abide by what her body wants and needs, not necessarily by what’s trending with the masses.
“Wellness is all about checking in,” she added. “Some days I need to go in my room and read a book for an hour and put a face mask on. Other days I need to wake up at 5.15am and get a spin class in to feel good – even though I hate waking up early.”
And, just when we thought the girl couldn’t get more authentic, she admitted she struggles to stay motivated too.
“I hate working out with a passion. It’s hard to motivate myself, but it’s like medicine and makes me feel mentally better. If I can constantly work out four to five days a week, I feel like the edge is taken off.”
God, we love you Jess.
