Juice Plus+ was a new product when I first began to recommend it. As an infectious disease specialist, I had seen firsthand the importance of good nutrition in maintaining a healthy immune system. Unfortunately, I had also seen how difficult it was for my patients to eat as well as they should – especially when it came to fruits and vegetables.
I simply saw the common sense of Juice Plus+, as there was no published Juice Plus+ clinical research at the time. Since then, there have been a number of clinical studies conducted and published – more than 15 so far, with numerous others underway.
There’s one in particular I’ll mention here: a study of 59 healthy law school students was conducted at The University of Florida and published in The Journal of Nutrition in October 2006.
Researchers tested students’ blood after 7 weeks of taking Juice Plus+ – about the same amount of time that’s passed since you started taking it. They found a 30% increase in circulating gamma delta-T cells, an important indicator of immune function. They also reported a 40% reduction in DNA strand breaks. (DNA is the basic genetic “building block” of our bodies.)
Both of these findings are indications of how adding good nutrition works at a cellular level to make us healthier. The added good nutrition in this case came from Juice Plus+.
Medical colleagues often ask me why I feel so strongly about recommending Juice Plus+. I tell them I think it would be unethical of me not to recommend it, knowing what I know about the product and the science behind it.
People don’t eat as well as they should, and I’m no exception. That’s why I’ve taken Juice Plus+ every day for more than 15 years.
