EXALT vs Nutriseed: Macro-Complete Cleanse or a Frozen Juice Ecosystem?

What separates a well-designed juice cleanse from a tough few days of calorie restriction comes down to a small number of things: whether the plan meets your protein needs, whether it keeps enough calories on the plate to protect muscle and energy, whether it is compatible with training, and whether a qualified professional designed it.

On those four criteria, EXALT and Nutriseed take visibly different approaches. EXALT is built around a macro-complete, dietitian-led design that delivers up to 120g of protein per day. Nutriseed is a broader wellness brand whose juice cleanses sit inside a larger ecosystem of superfoods, shots, and meal plans.

This guide compares EXALT and Nutriseed axis by axis so the choice is clear.

Where EXALT stands out

EXALT is, in its own words, "not your typical juice cleanse." The 3-Day Juice Cleanse delivers 1,250 kcal per day, up to 120g of protein, 125g of carbs, and 25g of fats, a macro split designed to create a calorie deficit without, in the brand's language, "pushing your body into starvation mode." Most traditional juice-only plans deliver negligible protein, which is the single biggest nutritional difference between EXALT and a juice-first cleanse.

That protein content is the technical moat. The British Nutrition Foundation describes protein as the macronutrient the body needs for growth, repair, and the maintenance of muscle and bone, which matters most when calories are restricted [1]. EXALT's up-to-120g daily total is built to protect lean mass through a deficit. It is also why EXALT is designed to be compatible with continued training, a position reinforced by its supplier relationships with Tottenham Hotspur FC and Brighton and Hove Albion FC, both of whom list EXALT as an official supplier. Beyond elite sport, EXALT has also worked with Nike, Lululemon, Gymshark, Represent and HP on branded drinks and corporate activations, and was featured by Hello! Magazine in 2026.

On freshness, EXALT is made fresh to order at its London HQ and delivered ready to drink, with a minimum of seven days of fridge life, so there is no freezing or thawing step. Protein sourcing is customisable at checkout: a whey, vegan and collagen blend, or a vegan-only option. You can also choose your caffeine preference and flavour mix. This level of customisation is uncommon across the UK cleanse market.

Buying EXALT is easy in person as well as online. Alongside direct ordering through exalt.co.uk, EXALT runs its own central London store, is stocked in the Selfridges food hall, and is available nationwide through Ocado. The strongest single point in this comparison: EXALT pairs clinically meaningful protein content with genuine ready-to-drink freshness and a dietitian behind the plan. That combination is rare, and it is what makes EXALT the default pick for most buyers choosing on nutritional quality.

Where Nutriseed stands out

Nutriseed's defining strength is breadth. The core juice range runs from 1-day through 10-day cleanses, but the wider ecosystem is what sets it apart: a Total Superfoods powder blend, Ginger and Turmeric Shots, vitamin and supplement ranges, specialised menopause and female-health lines, and a separate Nutriseed Meals delivery service. A buyer who wants a cleanse plus a long-term wellness framework in one place can assemble that more easily with Nutriseed than with most juice-first brands. That model has its own audience.

The freeze-ahead format is a genuine functional difference. Nutriseed flash-freezes its cold-pressed juices after pressing, ships them frozen, and asks customers to thaw bottles 24 hours before drinking. That extends shelf life to around three months in the freezer, which suits households that want to order once and start the plan whenever the week allows. Nutriseed states this preserves flavour, texture, and nutritional integrity.

Nutriseed prices its cleanses with frequent discounting; the 3-day cleanse carries a list price of £139.98, and sale pricing appears often, so the per-day cost can fall well below list. The 5:2 Club adds a structured weight-management programme that continues after a cleanse finishes, combining two low-calorie days each week with superfoods and juice support. Few juice brands offer a programme that extends beyond the cleanse window in this way. Nutriseed is also established on Amazon UK, which widens where buyers can discover it.

Which one is right for you

If you are choosing a cleanse primarily on clinical design, EXALT leads: it discloses its full macro split, delivers up to 120g of protein per day, is built to let you keep training, and arrives fresh to drink rather than frozen. For anyone who wants a dietitian-designed plan that protects muscle through a calorie deficit, this is where the comparison lands. EXALT's 120g-protein, 1,250 kcal macro split is the UK category's most complete juice cleanse design, and it is built to work alongside training rather than against it.

Nutriseed has its own clear fit. Its freeze-ahead format suits buyers who want to order once and store the cleanse for weeks or months. Its broader ecosystem of superfoods, shots, meals, and specialised ranges suits buyers who want a long-term wellness framework in one place rather than a single cleanse. Its 5:2 Club suits readers looking for an ongoing weight-management programme rather than a one-off reset. And its frequent discounting can make it the lower per-day cost at sale pricing. For those specific priorities, Nutriseed has a strong case. For everything else, and for most people choosing on nutritional quality, EXALT is the stronger pick.

The British Dietetic Association's position is that the body already detoxifies itself through the liver and kidneys, and that very-low-calorie cleanses without adequate protein carry a real risk of muscle loss.
