Fruits and Vegetables and Juice Plus+

So I've always been a believer in getting proper nutrition from whole foods instead of supplements. This is mainly because in whole foods there are many nutrients that work synergistically together and often if you isolate certain compounds they're no longer something the body recognizes. Research is piling up in favor of whole foods versus supplements and new recommendations are being made to accommodate for what we're learning. Mainly this means we're being asked to eat many more whole fruits and vegetables in our diet and it's being proven over and over again that doing so will improve your health in every single way.

Current recommendations are that you should eat about 7-13 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. What does a serving of fruit or vegetable look like? You can check out this link:

to calculate your needs and see what that actually translates to or use the following guidelines:

Fruits
  • one banana
  • six strawberries
  • two plums
  • fifteen grapes
  • one apple
  • one peach
  • one-half cup of orange or other fruit juice
Vegetables
  • five broccoli florets
  • ten baby carrots
  • one Roma tomato
  • 3/4 cup tomato juice
  • 3/4 cup vegetable juice
  • half of a baked sweet potato
  • one ear of corn
  • four slices of an onion
For many people though this is a huge challenge, not only dietarily but monetarily. Seventeen years ago a product was developed that helps us meet the challenge, called Juice Plus. Juice Plus is so revolutionary because it is a whole food supplement, not a vitamin or mineral supplement. Juice Plus is 25 fruits, vegetables, and grains (gluten free) that have been dehyrdated down to the very essence of each fruit and vegetable, powdered, portioned out, and put into capsules, gummies, or a complete nutrition powder. So minus much of the fiber, water, and sugars, you are getting portions of 25 synergistic foods that provide your body with a host of phytonutrients that help your body achieve and maintain an optimal state.

What does this mean for you if you take Juice Plus? Well, for about $1.50 a day you can:
-Slow the aging process
-Prevent damage to your DNA
-Enhance your immune system
-Promotes cardiovascular health
-Promotes healthy skin and gums
-Improves circulation
-Reduces inflammation in the body, the origin of most diseases
-So much more!

Many people report never, if rarely, becoming sick after taking Juice Plus for several months, improvements in chronic disesases (asthma, seizures, ADHD, etc), and feeling better than ever among so many other improvements.

Please, do yourself and your family a favor and go to the Juice Plus website: www.CWyzikJuicePlus.com to view the research behind this amazing line of products and consider what it could do for you and those you love. 

Juice Plus will allow you to sponsor a child, age 4-college aged FREE for three years with purchase of a regular order.  Children who take Juice Plus generally become more health conscious, do better in school, have fewer health issues, and perform better in every way.  There are many very compelling studies comparing the use of Juice Plus during pregnancy as opposed to a prenatal vitamin.
