During the retreat, guests drink four juices daily rather than eating solid meals, while taking part in yoga, fitness, meditation, games and walks. The retreat is designed to change the way attendees feel, both mentally and physically, with Carol having the time of her life.

Juicing splits opinion - some people are avid believers in the practice as a reset, while others believe juicing is a form of restrictive eating which can lead to disordered eating. Others feel juicing removes the goodness from fruit and vegetables.

Carol Vorderman is enjoying her juicing retreat

"I love it here so much," she wrote, revealing that after all the activity, she had her first juice. "So so happy," she said, sharing that her next plan was to have a session in a cryo tank.

Carol has shared her love of cryotherapy in the past, with benefits of cryotherapy including injury recovery and metabolism support, as well as decreased inflammation and improved circulation.

A session in a cryotherapy chamber can also help to reduce toxins, support collagen production to maintain a youthful look and aid weight loss – making the chilly few minutes more than worth it!
