Alert: Juice Plus is a scam. It is now revealed that fruits and vegetables and plant based foods and all the nutrients in them are not of any benefit to your good health and wellness. Therefore, the nutrients in the Juice Plus + fruit, vegetable, and berry blends are of no benefit either. Is this true? Have we reached the point where we no longer need nutrients from the foods grown on the Earth's soil?..... Uh...no. Let's get things straight.
There are plenty of people who would like us to believe that we can get the foods we need to maintain good health and prevent sickness and disease just from the supermarket shelves. You may be able to get calories that can provide energy to stay alive, but most certainly not the type of healthy and optimal energy that can be derived from the consumption of fruits, and some vegetables.
Are we entering an age where all of the foods and beverages we consume are man-made? Think about how many things that you have consumed in the past day that are in some way altered, processed, boxed, canned, or touched by human hands. Probably most of what is being consumed fits into this category. How many of us actually pick our fruits or pull our vegetables? A very small percentage, that's how many.
Assuming you don't have an orchard, a vineyard, or a garden from which to get ripe, raw, fresh nutrient-dense foods, then you probably get them from a local market. That is the method used by most of us. However, when you go to the market, do those foods make up the majority of what's in your cart, basket, or bag? If not, they should. There is no more important consumable for good health and the prevention of sickness and disease than are those plant-based foods...ideally consumed in their ripe and raw form.
There is no other source of nutrients that has as much impact on our health.
So, wouldn't logic dictate that because Juice Plus+ contains nutrients from a variety of fruits, vegetables, grapes, and berries, that it is going to provide positive benefit as well? Maybe. But we cannot rely on just common sense and logic for what needs to be proof of the efficacy of this or any product. That is why there is more research that shows evidence of what Juice Plus+ does.
One thing to be clear about: ripe, raw whole food fruits, vegetables, grapes, berries are the best way to get your nutrition. A supplement is only that - a supplement to what should be an already healthy diet, that can provide some nutrients that may be missing.
So eat a healthy diet, and when you do choose a vitamin supplement, choose one that is made using a variety of whole foods so you can get as many of the nutrients as possible.
