Daily routine - GREEN Juice Day
“The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.”
The philosophy of the MONO cycle takes its roots in the famous quote from Aristotle. We believe that external and internal factors all have a decisive role in our health. Of course, our nutrition is essential, but it is equally important to understand how our behavior influences our psyche and feelings. The MONO Juice Day cycle serves as a guide for an ideal and holistic day. Our goal is simple: with our daily program, we help you achieve the perfect balance of body, mind, and soul. Let go and let in a new breath of energy!
Daily Routine
07:00 a.m.: COLD SHOWER
Strengthen your immune system. You can do it!
Get out of bed and dive into the cool water! A cold shower will refresh and energize the body and the mind. A Dutch study also shows that cold showers strengthen your immune system. The thermal stimuli of cold temperatures stimulate your white blood cells, which fight off invading bacteria and viruses. The cold shower releases the hormone noradrenaline in the brain, a stimulant and a hormone of happiness. If you are not used to cold showers in the morning, start with lukewarm water and slowly lower the temperature to 15°C. You can do it!

In-between:
Mornings: JAMU JUICE (VITALITY + IMMUNE SYSTEM)
The raw take on the traditional Indonesian drink. Ancient wisdom!
For JAMU JUICE, we were inspired by the ancestral drink "Jamu", deeply rooted in Indonesian history. For over a thousand years, it has been credited with revitalizing effects for the body! There is no doubt about its effectiveness.
Traditionally, the ingredients of “Jamu” are boiled in water. For our JAMU JUICE, we decided otherwise. All the juices contained are gently cold pressed and never heated. Why? To preserve vitamins, enzymes, minerals and phytochemicals. The latter, ultra sensitive, would not survive the heat and that would be a shame for your body. Sometimes, changing traditions is a good thing!
Our raw version of the traditional Indonesian drink becomes the new morning ritual. Ancient wisdom!
*Vitamin C contributes to healthy immune and nervous systems, and reduces fatigue. In addition, vitamin C contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system.
Afternoons: KOMBUCHA (IT'S ALIVE!)
Our Kombucha is real. Our kombucha is raw. Our kombucha has never been heated. Yes, like our juices, it is not pasteurized. This is how we get this pure concentrate of life.
The ingredients in our kombucha are 100% vegan, 100% organically grown and entirely fair trade. And it shows: our Kombucha is naturally tangy and slightly sweet. A tasty balance.
The local «nycha» brewmasters in Wettingen know have to create excellent fermentation. Instead of the usual 2 weeks, the natural fermentation process of our Kombucha lasts 6-8 weeks. This is how the living food for your second brain is created. Trust your instincts!
If needed:
GRIPEN (GINGER shot)
A versatile and incredible weapon. To be enjoyed throughout the day, mixed with water or tea.
The potent, organic boost of ginger - experience a unique taste. GRIPEN is our multi-action weapon. The proven effectiveness of the ginger, honey and lemon formula makes this shot the best of resolutions. Fight the fatigue that follows a long day at work and get yourself ready for the next cold snap. Whether you consume it pure, hot or cold, with brandy or water - GRIPEN is the solution to any state of fatigue. As we say here at MONO: One GRIPEN a day...
UMAMI (MICROGREENS-Shot)
The nutrient-rich vegetable sprouts provide new energy.
To create this shot, the Zurich-based UMAMI team jumped on board. Fresh, nutritious, colorful, and rich in taste, their micro-greens are grown in a closed and sustainable ecosystem. The high concentration of essential oils and nutrients gives the vegetable sprouts an even more intense flavor than the vegetable itself. With pineapple, ginger, spirulina, and a little guarana, our creation is deliciously fruity, and has a booster effect. Did you know “umami” means “delicious” in Japanese? Alongside sweet, sour, savory, and bitter, umami becomes the fifth - legendary - taste.
CHAKRA (shot of TURMERIC)
Activate your chakras. Body and soul together in harmony.
In Vedic philosophy, CHAKRA means the circle. It represents the seven vital energy points of the human body, along the spine. The recipe for the CHAKRA shot is inspired by the wisdom of yogis and their ancestral traditions: physical and mental well-being can only be achieved through the harmony of body, mind and soul.
Stop thinking about the stress of everyday life and rest. Experience the delicious spiciness of cayenne pepper and ginger, and savor the spicy-sweet combination of oranges and turmeric. Activate your chakras and let prana - the breath of life - flow through you. The CHAKRA shot is ideal after yoga or meditation and will infuse you with brand new energy. Let it flow!
