We're post-holidays, and everyone is joining gyms... and some people are doing "juice cleansing."

  • Dr. Vicky Hsiao, UR Medicine endocrinologist
  • Rachel Reeves, UR Medicine dieticians
  • Damaris Pinedo, owner of Just Juice 4 Life
  • Dr. Ted Barnett, co-coordinator of the Rochester Area Vegan Society
