Juice Lady Cherie Calbom
HEALTHSPAN & NUTRITION
An interview with Cherie Calbom, adapted from a conversation with Vince Ferguson on Six Weeks to Fitness Podcast
How Juicing Changed Her Life
Millions of people know Cherie Calbom as The Juice Lady, but the woman behind the nickname found her way to nutrition through a health crisis, not a career plan. In her twenties, she was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia so severe she had to quit her job and move back home, sleeping twelve hours a day and waking up feeling, in her words, like she had the flu all the time. “No doctor knew how to help me,” she says. “But I was determined to get well. I knew there had to be a way out of where I was.”
Cherie Calbom healed herself from chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia with a five-day vegetable juice fast in her twenties. Thirty-six books later, “The Juice Lady” is still telling anyone who'll listen: one glass a day can change your life.
