Go Green to Stop Diabetes

From the January 2010 Prevention Magazine:

People who eat a little more than 1 serving daily of leafy green vegetables have a 14 % lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Greens like spinach, and kale contain a triple whammy: antioxidants, magnesium, alpha linoleic acid. University of Leicester, England

Just think what your body is going to feel like when you get the benefit of these leafy greens every day plus 24 other veggies, fruits and berries combined?

The nutritional bridge

Juice Plus+ is the whole food extracts of 26 fruits, vegetables and berries. Packed with phyto-nutrients, vitamins, enzymes and the life giving goodness of raw fresh produce. Juice Plus+ cannot replace eating your apple or banana or carrot everyday, but it can be the Nutritional Bridge that gets you from 1 to 2 servings of fruits and vegetables to 7 to 13 servings.

So Juice Plus+ gets you from a good start(1-2 servings) a day to a good finish (7-10 servings) by bridging the gap between what we do and what we need to do.

Multivitamins most likely myth, not magic (Pioneer Press, 12-15-10)

For those who don't eat their veggies, a multivitamin isn't going to do a darn thing, Sorry.

"It's a myth that if you have poor diet and take a multivitamin it will somehow make up for it," says Marion Neuhouser, lead author and associate member in the Public Health Sciences Division at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. "Multivitamins don't contain all of the benefits of plant foods and whole grains."

Juice Plus + is whole food based nutrition. Juice Plus+ does provide the benefits of plant nutrients and some whole grains, allowing us to "bridge the gap" between what we do eat, and what we should eat.

What Juice Plus+ is not.

Juice Plus+® is not:
 
Juice Plus+® is not a substitute for eating fruits and vegetables.
Everyone should eat a wide variety of fruits and vegetables every day, at least 7-13 servings according to the USDA food pyramid at www.MyPyramid.gov. Juice Plus+ provides whole food based nutrition from 17 fruits, vegetables, and grains, because we often do not get nearly enough of the real thing every day.
 
Juice Plus+® is not a medicine, treatment, or cure for any disease or condition.
Many of the healthful benefits of taking Juice Plus+ have been demonstrated in clinical research conducted by investigators at leading hospitals and universities around the world, and published in peer-reviewed scientific journals.
 
Juice Plus+® is not a multivitamin.
Juice Plus+ contains a much wider variety of naturally occurring vitamins - along with other antioxidants and phytonutrients - than traditional vitamin supplements.
 
Juice Plus+® is not a multi-level marketing (MLM) program.
Juice Plus+ is a product offered directly from the manufacturer to the consumer through a network of independent representatives. While anyone is welcome to become a Juice Plus+ representative, the vast majority of the people who buy and use Juice Plus+ are simply customers.
