Peace Holistica Fam!
Warning: long article post!
Let's talk about it. It's time we really sit down and dissect this topic on Vitamins. Does it work? Is my body absorbing 100% of the contents? How can I tell? Those are excellent questions. Many of you may have been taking a multivitamin for years. Especially when we reach a certain age, we want to make sure things are functioning. So you start taking a multivitamin that may read "40 and over, 50 and over, 30 and over." This makes you feel good about your well-being. "I'm on top of my health! Taking my multi every day!" You feel a sense of responsibility and surety. These are all good feelings to have. It says that you CARE about your health. The only missing key is that you may not be getting the minerals you think you are getting from your multivitamin.
Vitamins-Isolated ingredients and Cellular Degradation
Taking countless vitamins on a daily basis gives the populace the illusion of good health. Most people are unaware that most vitamins that stock the shelves of various health food stores are garbage. I used to work in a health food store and seen tons of different vitamin brands. Most of the brands contained isolated vitamins. Isolated vitamins mean fragmenting the whole into parts. For example, if I need vitamin C, to get the whole part of vitamin C, I will need to consume the fruit or vegetable that offers the WHOLE vitamin. Oranges contain the WHOLE vitamin C. In fact, the peel of an orange contains more vitamin C than the actual flesh of the fruit! When I take a synthetic isolated vitamin, the vitamin C offered may say "Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)".
How does this affect me?
I'm so glad you asked. Consuming synthetic isolated vitamins confuses the cell, eventually degrading the entire cell community. The cell is no fool. It is conscious of real nutrients versus the fake ones. When you take fake isolated vitamins, the cell will respond- "Ayooo what is this? Oh, you trying to play me huh?! I need real nutrients bruh. I need to convert the nutrients into ATP (energy). You ain't getting in here. DENIED!" The constant booting of the synthetic vitamins will eventually lead to destroying the integrity of the cell. Not only that, but you're also not eating REAL FOOD the cell needs to convert it into energy. Lack of real food+ synthetic isolated vitamins= DISEASE.
I didn't know this! How can I get REAL FOOD in my body?
Now you're speaking the language of the cells! I'm proud of you. You have read how synthetic isolated vitamins not only gives you the illusion of good health, but it also destroys your cellular health as well, leading to what we call dis-ease. The key to getting real food DAILY is by consuming WHOLE FOOD NUTRITION. Eating an abundance of fruits and vegetables that the cell recognizes produces the foundation of a stable cell environment. In addition to eating your fruits and berries, you can also take it in a pill or powder form know as JUICE PLUS.
I hear you talk about Juice Plus, but never really knew what it's about. I'm ready to learn more....
Absolutely, and if you made it this far, you are activated to learn more about keeping your body in the best health possible! If anyone knows me and my work, you know I am always mentioning Juice Plus. I rarely promote products unless it's my own (which I create myself with love and intention) or I have taken the products myself. I remember starting Juice Plus 5 years ago to help my clients with a more nutritional approach. Herbs are great, but if you get stuck there, your body will always be dependent on that herb. Herbs are temporary sources. REAL FOOD IS FOREVAAAA!!! I started taking the Juice Plus daily, while also introducing it to my daughter and Mother. I noticed some huge changes. My Mother noticed she was drinking more water (she always preferred juice or something with taste). I had a dental surgery where my wisdom tooth was extracted. The dentist gave me pain pills to take post-surgery; back then, I was the super stubborn and firm on "no drugs" so I just took my Juice Plus Fruits, Vegetables, Berries and Omegas. When I returned to the dentist for my follow up, he couldn't believe how fast my gums had healed! I was opening my mouth within a few days with ease. The only thing I could think of was JUICE PLUS. I started looking into the clinical research heavy and found that Juice Plus had conducted a clinical study on Wisdom Tooth Recovery. In the trial, researchers evaluated 183 subjects, between the age of 18-65. The subjects were divided into groups- one group took 4 juice plus capsules and the other group took 4 placebos every day for 10 weeks prior to surgery as well as after the first week of wisdom tooth surgery. They observed-
1. Ability to open mouth
2. Quality of life
3. Pain Perception.
The results? The group taking Juice Plus had a much better ability to open their mouths and less likely to experience moderate to severe pain, just two days after surgery! This is a clear indication that Juice Plus helped increase antioxidants levels in the body which decreased oxidation stress and inflammation.
I was ALL IN!
From there, I started recommending Juice Plus to my clients and heard similar stories. Better gum health. Improved bowel movements. Blood was improving post lab results. I was amazed! There was no looking back. I knew Juice Plus was going to be the foundation of nutrition that I can help people solve their health problem. That wasn't all. As if Juice Plus couldn't wow me anymore! They offer FREE Juice Plus for children 4 years old and up and adults up to the age of 25 with a paying adult sponsor! This means your investment guarantees you a free product for your child! As if Juice Plus couldn't wow me more! What other company does that?!
So, there you have it family. REAL FOOD is the key to sustainability of cellular function which determines the state of your health. Juice Plus can be consumed on a global level, from children to pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. Matter of fact, expecting mothers can take Juice Plus as their prenatal as its filled with antioxidants to help mama produce the essential vitamins, such as vitamin K baby will need at birth!!!
