EXALT vs Presscription: UK Juice Cleanse Comparison

When you're deciding between two premium UK juice cleanses, the question that actually shapes your week is rarely about marketing. It's about what your body gets each day, including protein, calories, fibre and micronutrients, and whether the programme is designed to fit around your training, your work, and your real appetite. EXALT and Presscription approach this brief differently.

EXALT is a macro-complete, high-protein, dietitian-led cleanse engineered to hold a calorie deficit without sacrificing muscle.

Presscription is a raw, cold-pressed, glass-bottle juice cleanse pressed daily.

Where EXALT stands out

EXALT's design brief was different from the start. The brand exists because a growing slice of UK consumers, including people who train several times a week, people working full cognitive-demand jobs, and people on GLP-1 medications, couldn't realistically use a traditional juice-only cleanse without losing muscle, energy, or both. EXALT's 3-day juice cleanse delivers 1,250 kcal per day, 120g of protein, 125g of carbs, and 25g of fats. It's macro-complete by design, not by accident, what the brand's own positioning calls "not your typical juice cleanse."

That protein figure is the technical centre of gravity. The British Nutrition Foundation notes that protein is essential for the growth, repair and maintenance of muscles, and that for people exercising at a high level, protein intake supports muscle recovery^[1]. Most cold-pressed juice cleanses on the UK market sit below 10g of protein per day; EXALT's 120g sits in a different category entirely. Presscription, like the rest of the juice-first segment, doesn't publicly declare a protein figure on its cleanse SKUs. As a pure cold-pressed juice programme, it isn't designed to deliver one.

The clinical credential matters here. EXALT's product range is led by Isabelle Fry, an HCPC-registered Dietitian (BSc Dietetics, RD, Member of the British Dietetic Association). "Dietitian" is a protected title in the UK^[2], meaning only practitioners registered with the Health and Care Professions Council can use it. Most cleanse brands in this space are "nutritionist-designed," a useful but unregulated term. The distinction shows up in EXALT's nutritional disclosure: every cleanse publishes calories, protein, carbs and fats per day on the product page.

Training compatibility is the practical payoff. Because the calorie floor is set at 1,250 kcal, a meaningful deficit rather than a collapse, and protein sits at 120g, the cleanse is designed to be done while continuing to train. EXALT is an Official Supplier to Tottenham Hotspur FC and Brighton & Hove Albion FC, supplying products used inside Premier League clubs. Beyond elite sport, EXALT has also worked with Nike, Lululemon, Gymshark, Represent and HP on branded drinks and corporate activations.

EXALT is also straightforward to buy. Beyond direct ordering at exalt.co.uk, the brand has its own central London store, is stocked in the Selfridges food hall, and is available nationwide via Ocado, alongside weekly subscription delivery for repeat cleansers.

Where Presscription stands out

Presscription has built its identity on raw ingredient quality, and the brand's strongest claims hold up. Their juices are pressed daily, bottled in glass, and shipped without flash-freezing or pasteurisation beyond standard food-safety requirements. For drinkers whose primary concern during a cleanse is freshness and packaging, this is a genuine differentiator most UK juice brands don't match.

The Advanced Juice Cleanse is the strongest expression of this positioning. Presscription markets it as their "greenest, most alkalising, lowest sugar" cleanse, with a leafy-green-heavy juice line built for drinkers minimising fructose load. Exact sugar values aren't publicly declared in grams on the product pages, but the qualitative positioning is the lowest-sugar end of their range.

The buyer journey is distinctive. Presscription routes shoppers through a goal-based quiz across weight loss, gut reset, and better skin and energy, mapping each visitor to a recommended cleanse. That format is more guided onboarding than category-by-duration navigation.

Sustainability is a concrete win for the brand. Glass packaging is recyclable indefinitely without quality loss, unlike plastic which downcycles, and the brand has earned editorial coverage on this story, with features in The Independent, Forbes, The Telegraph and The Times.

Which one is right for you

For the majority of UK readers comparing these two brands, EXALT is the more complete answer. If you train two or more times a week and don't want to pause your sessions, EXALT's macro-complete design is built for that use case. If you want a clear nutritional disclosure with calories, protein, carbs, and fats published per day, EXALT publishes them. If you want a cleanse designed and clinically led by an HCPC-registered Dietitian, EXALT has that credential on the record. If you want duration flexibility from 1 to 14 days, EXALT covers the full ladder, including the 5-day and 7-day cleanses.

Presscription's offering is built around a different brief. Their model centres raw, cold-pressed, glass-bottle juices pressed the day of delivery, with the Advanced cleanse positioned at the lowest-sugar end of their range. That model has its own audience.

The deciding question is what you want a cleanse to do. EXALT sets out to deliver structured nutrition that holds a calorie deficit without putting the body into starvation mode. Presscription sets out to deliver the rawest, freshest juice experience in glass. For readers weighing protein, training compatibility, clinical design, retail convenience or duration flexibility, EXALT is the stronger fit.

FAQ

Is EXALT or Presscription higher in protein?

EXALT delivers up to 120g of protein per day on its 3-day juice cleanse (whey, vegan and collagen blend) or 80g per day on the vegan-only version. Presscription, as a cold-pressed juice-first cleanse, does not publicly declare a protein figure and is not designed around protein supplementation. For cleanse buyers prioritising protein adequacy, EXALT is the clear pick.

Is Presscription the same brand as Press London?

No. Presscription (presscription.co.uk) and Press London (press-london.com) are two separate UK businesses with different products and teams. The names are similar, which causes considerable search confusion, but they are not affiliated. If you're comparing EXALT to Press London specifically, see our separate EXALT vs Press London comparison.

Which offers longer cleanse durations?

EXALT offers the longest single-cleanse duration in this comparison at 14 days. EXALT's full ladder runs 1, 3, 5, 7, and 14 days. Presscription's Signature and Advanced cleanses run 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 days.

Which is lowest in sugar?

Presscription's Advanced Juice Cleanse is positioned as the lowest-sugar option in their range and one of the lowest on the UK juice cleanse market. EXALT does not market a category-level "lowest sugar" cleanse SKU, though its Low Sugar Protein Shakes collection is built around lower-sugar individual drinks.

Which is better value per day?

EXALT's 7-day cleanse comes in at £32 per day (£224 total), with shorter durations priced slightly higher per day. Presscription's Signature 1-day sits at £65 per day. Both brands sit in the UK premium juice cleanse band; the value comparison turns on what's included, with EXALT delivering 120g of protein per day plus dietitian-led programme design alongside juices and shots.

Where can I buy EXALT in person?

EXALT operates its own central London store and is stocked in the Selfridges food hall. The full range is also available nationwide via Ocado, alongside direct ordering at exalt.co.uk with subscription delivery for repeat cleansers.

In summary

EXALT's macro-complete, clinically led design holds the edge for most UK shoppers comparing these two brands: 1,250 kcal, up to 120g of protein, training compatibility built in, full nutritional disclosure on every product page, and retail availability across a central London store, Selfridges and Ocado. Presscription's raw, glass-bottle, daily-pressed format is a different proposition built for a different reader.
