About Us

The Clean Movement

When Clean founder, Dr. Alejandro Junger, M.D., was undergoing medical training, he went through what too many people experience: multiple, seemingly unrelated, and compounding health issues. He found himself in an over-medicated state, lacking improvement, and out-of-balance with his body's natural rhythms. Experiencing elevated stress and anxiety, poor sleep, digestive issues, and low energy – he was determined to feel better.


Driven by an intuition that the root cause had yet to be identified, he embarked on a journey to find a better solution. He embraced a holistic approach, transcending conventional distinctions between Eastern and Western medicine, as well as ancient wisdom and modern science.


What did Dr. Junger discover? He began to understand that his issues were all connected to one vital system — the gut. He started with healing the gut, supporting the body’s natural detoxification system, and restoring the body with the essential nutrients and rest it needs for optimal function. The protocol he created proved to be the most powerful and effective method to systematically reclaim his health and that of his patients. He experienced a greater sense of vitality than he had ever felt before. This transformative experience inspired him to share this with others by founding what has evolved into the Clean movement.

Clean Program Founder

Dr. Alejandro Junger is a Cardiologist and New York Times best-selling author. After graduating from Medical School in Uruguay, he moved to New York City to begin postgraduate training in Internal Medicine at NYU and Lenox Hill Hospital. The significant shift in diet and lifestyle soon manifested as symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, allergies, and depression. Becoming a patient within the healthcare system incentivised to treat symptoms vs root cause emerged as a startling experience that catalyzed his quest for an alternative solution. Following his postgraduate training, Dr. Junger studied Eastern medicine in India and completed additional training in Functional Medicine.

His findings helped him regain his health and formed the basis of his best-selling books "Clean," "Clean Gut," and "Clean Eats," guiding readers on how to heal their guts, reset their own detoxification systems, and restore and maintain optimal vitality. Recognized as “The Father of Detox,” Dr. Junger has been featured on major national shows including Martha Stewart, PBS News, and ABC News, and his programs are embraced globally by dignitaries, A-list celebrities, and wellness practitioners.

His mission is to share what he has learned with as many people as possible, to help them maintain maximum vitality, energy, and joy.
