If your routine has drifted, snacking has crept back in, and you want a short, structured plan to follow instead of guessing, the Clean 9 program from Forever Living is built for exactly that. Often called C9, it is a nine-day, booklet-guided program that combines aloe vera drinking gel, protein shakes, and nutritional supplements with a simple daily schedule, portion guidance, and light to moderate exercise.
This guide walks through what is in the pack, what each phase looks like, and tips that help people finish all nine days.
What Is the Clean 9 Program?
Clean 9 is a nine-day weight management program in our Weight Management collection. Rather than a long, open-ended plan, it gives you a fixed daily timetable for nine days: what to take in the morning, at lunch, and in the evening, which foods you can enjoy freely, and when to add a regular meal back in.
The program is split into two parts. Days 1 and 2 are the most structured, built around aloe gel, shakes, and supplements. From day 3 onward you add a balanced meal of around 600 calories each day (men can add roughly 200 more), which makes the second week far easier to stick with.
What Is in the C9 Pack?
Contents can vary slightly by flavour combination, but a typical C9 pack includes:
- Two 1-litre bottles of Forever Aloe Vera Gel, the program's foundation drink
- Forever Lite Ultra shake mix in vanilla or chocolate, with 24 grams of protein per serving plus vitamins and minerals
- Forever Garcinia Plus softgels, which contain garcinia and the mineral chromium
- Forever Fiber stick packs, an easy way to add fibre to your daily routine
- Forever Therm tablets, formulated with botanical ingredients and B vitamins
- A shaker, a tape measure, and the C9 booklet with the day-by-day schedule, recipes, and a progress tracker
Always follow the booklet in your own pack, since serving schedules are printed there step by step.
Days 1 and 2: The Structured Start
The first two days follow the tightest schedule. Your day is built around servings of aloe vera gel with water, Garcinia Plus softgels, a Forever Fiber stick as a snack, a Lite Ultra shake at lunch, and a Therm tablet. There is no regular meal on these two days, although the booklet's free foods list, mostly fresh vegetables and selected fruits, is there if you need something to crunch on.
Keep exercise gentle here: a 30-minute walk or light stretching fits better than an intense workout. Most people find day 2 the hardest, simply because the routine is new. Plenty of water and a quiet couple of days help a lot.
Days 3 to 9: Adding a Daily Meal
From day 3 the rhythm changes. You keep the morning aloe gel, softgels, and shake, add a second shake or keep one at lunch depending on the booklet schedule, and enjoy one balanced meal a day of about 600 calories. Think lean protein, vegetables, and whole grains, the kind of plate you can keep making after the program ends.
A typical day in the second phase
- Breakfast: Garcinia Plus, a serving of aloe vera gel with water, a Therm tablet, and a Lite Ultra shake
- After breakfast: about 30 minutes of moderate exercise, such as a brisk walk
- Snack: a Forever Fiber stick with a full glass of water
- Lunch: Garcinia Plus, a Therm tablet, and a Lite Ultra shake
- Dinner: Garcinia Plus and your balanced 600-calorie meal
- Evening: a full glass of water before bed
On day 9, lunch becomes a lighter, low-sugar meal of around 300 calories instead of a shake, a small sign that you are transitioning back to regular eating.
Tips to Finish All Nine Days
Prep before day 1. Stock up on free foods, skim or plant-based milk for your shakes, and ingredients for your day 3 to 9 meals so nothing is left to chance.
Use the tracker. Weigh and measure on days 1, 3, 6, and 9 as the booklet suggests, and write down your water, food, and exercise. Seeing the boxes checked off is motivating.
Stay hydrated. Aim for at least eight glasses of water a day. An Aloe Blossom Herbal Tea in the evening is a comforting, calorie-free way to round out the day once you are back to regular routines.
Plan your next step. C9 works best as a starting point, not a finish line. Many people move on to the follow-up F15 program, and our F15 Vanilla pack is designed for exactly that next stage. Individual experiences vary, and nine days of structure is most valuable for the habits it helps you build.
Is Clean 9 Right for You?
If you like clear instructions, a short timeline, and having everything in one box, Clean 9 is a practical way to refocus on portion sizes, hydration, protein, and daily movement. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, take medication, or have a medical condition, talk to your doctor before starting any structured nutrition program.
