Somone just wrote me about juiceplus.  Here is my response:

 

 Hi Rhonda,

I was wondering if Juice Plus might help my brother - he's unable to eat 
most fruits and veges because of his GERD.  I think he's now suffering 
from a deficiency - his gums have been swollen for a month now.

Can you e-mail me (or mail me?) some basic info? 

Thank you,

 JS

 

Answer:

Here is one article I pulled up for him. I highly recommend he get on 

juiceplus ASAP.  You can let him know that my friend's who's mother passed 
away from cancer and went to cedar sinai hospital and spoke with the top dr 
there.  She asked him, "what can I do to prevent cancer?" and he told her, 
"Take juiceplus!"
 
It is recommended that we should be eating 10 servings of raw veggies a day 
to prevent cancer.  If he is not eating any, he is on his way to be getting
cancer. Juiceplus has 17 servings of fruits and veggies.  It is 
scientifically proven to change your DNA!  The top drs in the country are 
all recommending juiceplus and in Germany, almost all the people 
distributing it are doctors!
 
If your brother cares about his health, he should try it for 4 months and 
see if he sees improvement. One lady gave it to her grandchild and it 
actually changed the coloring of his skin.  He was very pale before that!
 
One friend was sick all the time because she flies a lot but hasn't got sick 
as much.
 
It takes 4 months for the blood cells to change so that is why it's 
recommended to take it for at least 4 months.
 
Here is some info and then see my website below:
 a.. Results of Juice Plus+® Clinical Research
Clinical studies published in peer-reviewed scientific journals have 
demonstrated that:
 
a.. Juice Plus+ delivers key phytonutrients that are absorbed by the body.
 Investigators at the Tokyo Women's Medical University and the Medical 
University of Vienna studied the bioavailability (absorption by the body) of 
select nutrients found in Juice Plus+ and concluded that Juice Plus+ 
effectively increases antioxidant nutrients and folate. Other published 
studies have also shown various phytonutrients in Juice Plus+ are
bioavailable. These studies were conducted by independent researchers at the 
University of Sydney in Australia, King's College in London, Brigham Young 
University, the University of Arizona, and the University of Texas Health 
Science Center.
 
a.. Juice Plus+ reduces oxidative stress.
 Several of these bioavailability studies also reported improved antioxidant 
capacity and reduced lipid peroxides, a key indicator of oxidative stress. 
In addition, researchers at the Medical University of Graz, Austria and the 
University of North Carolina, Greensboro found that Juice Plus+ Orchard, 
Garden and Vineyard Blends together were effective in reducing a marker for 
oxidative stress associated with aerobic exercise.

> a.. Juice Plus+ helps support a healthy immune system.
 A healthy immune system protects the body, and good nutrition is important 
for a healthy immune system. Published clinical research indicated that 
Juice Plus+ supports several measures of immune function - in law school 
students at the University of Florida and in elderly people in a study 
conducted at the University of Arizona.
 
a.. Juice Plus+ helps protect DNA.
 A diet rich in nutrition from fruits and vegetables is also important to 
protect DNA from oxidative damage, which can weaken the structural integrity 
of DNA. DNA becomes damaged and fragile when exposed to oxidative stress; 
antioxidants from fruits and vegetables can help protect DNA from this 
damage. Studies conducted have shown a reduction in DNA damage after taking 
Juice Plus+ in young adults at the University of Florida and in an elderly 
population at Brigham Young University.
 
a.. Juice Plus+ positively impacts several key indicators of cardiovascular 
wellness.
 Homocysteine is an amino acid that is found in the blood. Maintaining 
healthy homocysteine levels is important for the heart and cardiovascular 
system. A clinical study at the University of Sydney in Australia reported a 
reduction in homocysteine levels - even though the levels of the Australian 
subjects were already within an acceptable range. Researchers in Foggia, 
Italy also found a reduction of homocysteine levels in subjects with 
elevated levels of homocysteine.
 
Researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine found that 
subjects who consumed Juice Plus+ were better able to maintain the 
elasticity of arteries, even after a high-fat meal.
 
Investigators at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine monitored several 
measures of vascular health in a low risk population who took Juice Plus+ 
for two years and noted various improvements with no adverse side effects
