 When I was getting my MS in Holistic Nutrition, from 2003 to 2004, I was already aware that whole foods trump isolated vitamin supplements. I knew that there were literally thousands of micronutrients called phytochemicals in plants. Nevertheless, I had to slog through a (literally!) 4 inch thick book called Staying Healthy with Nutrition, by Elson M. Haas, MD. It was published in 1992, the year before JuicePlus+ was introduced. At the time, science was just discovering the sheer numbers of phytochemicals in various plants--literally tens of thousands in each plant! I had also discovered that there have only been 13 "vitamins" discovered that have been isolated and produced in laboratories to make "multivitamin" pills. The last "vitamin" was discovered in the 1940s, around the time that penicillin was discovered. Thus began the mad rush to create "wonder drugs". Nutrition was abandoned until the early 1990s when technology finally caught up enough so scientists could see these microscopic phytochemicals. The only way to get all of the phytochemicals is to eat the plants in their whole form. Enter JuicePlus+ which is made by partnering with small to midsized family farms who grow their entire crops for us without using chemicals and allowing the produce to ripen all the way before harvesting. It's then pulverized, seeds, skin and all, and then the water is removed at low temperatures. All of the phytochemicals are left intact, in the amounts that Nature created.
Most vitamin pills are not absorbed by the body and literally go into the toilet the next time you pee. JuicePlus+ is completely absorbed into the bloodstream right away as shown in numerous clinical studies. The research is why I take and recommend JuicePlus+ products. If I ever find another product brave enough to allow it to be thoroughly studied, I will let you know!

Wow! If you have or know of a child with learning, cognitive behavioral and movement disorders, please check this out! In the Oxford-Durham Study in 2005, researchers at Oxford University supplemented kids with learning, cognitive, behavioral and movement disorders. The kids were 5-12 years old. They gave the kids high potency EPA/DHA (omega fatty acids) in the form of capsules for 3-6 months. All children improved. In 3-6 months, kids made 13.5 months of reading progress/gained skill set, gained 6.5 months of progression in spelling ability. The researchers at Oxford found that in kids with ADHD, the omegas fatty acids improved symptom BETTER than Ritalin....with no side effects. Wow! What Omegas do you use for your family? We chose these plant-based Omegas because there are no fish--so no yucky taste or smell and no contaminants. Fish oil come from the fish fat, which is where all their toxins are stored. I'm happy to chat with anyone who would like more information about these plant-based omega blend capsules. They are way smaller than fish oil capsules. These plant based omegas have been shown to reach optimal omega levels in human subjects TWICE AS FAST as fish oil capsules. You won't be disappointed, whether you are struggling with arthritic joint pain, anxiety, depression, heart disease, brain fog, learning and cognitive issues or want to focus on prevention and cardiovascular health, the Omegas are a KEY part of your routine!  |
