I’m going to ask a question, and I want a honest answer….How many servings of fruits and vegetables have you consumed today?
The sad fact is that most of you reading this maybe had 2 or 3 servings….Does anyone know what the daily recommended amount is? Its 7 – 14 servings….I had a decent amount today…Spinach, romaine lettuce, basil (fresh), asparagus, cucumbers, tomatos, carrots, leeks, edamame, and beets. Bam! Thats 10 just for lunch! To me, you should strive to eat more than 14 servings/day – my motto is “whoever eats the most fruits and vegetables wins”.
Fruits and vegetables are SO powerful…I’m sure you’ve heard by now that they prevent cancer as well as a slew of other diseases. How about this….
“The news isn’t that fruits and vegetables are good for you.
It’s that they are so good for you they could save your life.”
– David Bjerkle TIME October 2003
So here is another question…WHY AREN’T WE EATING MORE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES?
Time…thats the main answer – people today are busier than they ever have been. But somehow biting into a ripe red apple doesn’t fit into the majority of the population’s schedule. We have to make time…our bodies are the vehicles that take us through the journey of life….I don’t know about you, but I’d like a LONG road trip. I have this amazing husband that I want to wake up next to for as long as possible. So, I eat right, drink plenty of water, exercise, and I never miss a day of taking Juice Plus+.
First let me clear one thing up….Juice Plus+ is NOT a vitamin…Its a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, and 2 grains in capsule or chewable form. And when I say wide variety, I’m talking 17 – 26 different servings…So unlike a vitamin that you swallow and pee out a bit later, Juice Plus+ is absorbed into your body…the antioxidants and phytonutrients from the 26 fruits and vegetables gets into your blood stream and then begin to do what fruits and vegetables do…reduce oxidative stress, support a healthy immune system, help to protect DNA, and positively impact several key indicators of cardiovascular wellness. How do I know this….well its backed by SCIENCE! There are 18 clinical, double blind, peer reviewed studies by very well known medical universities and institutions all around the world! Check it out!
But, wouldn’t you rather hear this from a more reputable source? If nothing else….I encourage you to take a few minutes and CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO!!!!
I feel like the Juice Plus+ videos speak for themselves, but know this….I’ve been taking Juice Plus+ since 2006. For over 3 years now, a month hasn’t gone by when I haven’t been on an airplane and I’ve been sick…drum roll please…. 2 times! There are studies showing that Juice Plus+ helps with immunity – and the longer you take it, the better it helps.
For other people, like the men in my life :
My husband, who is always deployed and away from fruits and vegetables – Juice Plus+ in most cases should never be a replacement for fruits and vegetables, but in this case it truly is the next best thing.
My dad, who can’t eat leafy greens because he has to take coumadin (a blood thinner to help prevent blood clots). But with Juice Plus+, he can still get broccoli, parsley, cabbage, spinach, and Kale safely into his body. Within a very short period of time of taking Juice Plus+, my dad’s coumadin levels went from a very high levels to now the lowest dosage you can take…the next step being completely rid of coumadin, and he’s almost there!
My brother, who as long as I’ve known him has despised fruits and vegetables and with Juice Plus+ I know he’s finally getting some health into his system.
Juice Plus+ isn’t a miracle drug. But its a miracle for me. The people I care most about are taking Juice Plus+ and will be taking it for the rest of their lives. Yes, it costs money every month. Its an investment of $41.25 – $74.00/month or $1.50 – $2.50/day….Many of you spend at least that at Starbucks everyday! For $2.50/day are you able to purchase 26 different fruits and vegetables/day?
Juice Plus+ is so good, that they are even willing to give Juice Plus+ to children for free for up to 3 years! The children have to be between the ages of 4-18 or full-time undergraduate college students. Parents, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, etc. simply sponsor the child by buying and taking Juice Plus+ and filling out a few OPTIONAL surveys each year. Its called the “Children’s Health Study” and the findings are astounding!
If you don’t have kids, but still want in on the deals, there is a study called the “Juice Plus+ Effect” where after 90 days you answer 14 questions regarding Juice Plus+ and its effects on YOU….and you in return get $50 (a 2 month supply) of the Vineyard Blend or Juice Plus+ Complete. The vineyard blend is a great addition to the garden and orchard blend. The Juice Plus+ Complete is a great on-the-go breakfast/snack or pre/post workout drink.
So, why not give it a whirl? Give it 4 months…I promise, you won’t be disappointed! By the way, the chewables are so tasty! Message me and we can get you started!

Oh, and stay tuned….I’ve got some celeb pics coming up taken by yours truly…they were at the Juice Plus+ Leadership Convention in March, and it was AWESOME!
SO well put my friend!! I’m trying to figure out how to “share” this on FB and on my blog. You have so much great info here!!!
My family has been so blessed by JP+–and my husband Dave being a doctor believes in Juice Plus with all of his heart.

I have been so impressed by Juice Plus+!
I used to have bad skin and since using Juice Plus+, I’ve been getting compliments on my complexion. I’m not as self conscious about how I look and I feel good about my skin even without makeup. Not only does my skin look better, but I have more energy and have been getting fewer colds. I’m in my second trimester of my second pregnancy and I feel much better this time around!
Thanks!
Missy! I LOVE this :) So happy JP+ is helping you….Just wait until you get that vineyard blend next month :)
Christie this is a great article. Thank you for inviting me to try Juice Plus. I love it, it is so easy to take and include in my daily walk of wellness. As you know I am a Co Founder of our wellness clinic and we see lots of products out there but Juice Plus is one of the best I have tried. I look forward to sharing more about Juice Plus in the near future.
