JUICE PLUS??? NO THANKS. There is no such thing as a quick fix....Fad diets are not good for you!! TIme and time again I see people jumping onto Juice plus.... as an easy alternative.... they are advised by sellers who have no nutritional background. Well before you take this so called easy option, lets take a look at the facts and then you can decide for yourself: So who decided to package up your “five a day” in a little capsule? Before all you distributers hurl at me – but this is the easy way for the population to get their five a day, let me explain. For a start – our population should be getting 7 or 8 a day, but that’s for another article. Secondly, a company who wishes to blend, dehydrate and force your five a day into a PILL instead of EDUCATING people on how to actually EAT their five a day – should in my honest opinion – be closed down. “Juice Plus+ has not been designed to replace real food because it is real food.” COME ON PEOPLE – let’s get REAL here! *Steam coming out ears* Juice Plus also have a weight loss range (although this is cleverly marketed as their “Shape” range). If I were choosing a shake flavour, I would most likely opt for Chocolate – so here are the ingredients of the chocolate flavoured “Shape” meal replacement shakes: Soy protein, fructose, inulin, rapeseed oil powder (rapeseed oil, maltodextrin), flavours, algae oil powder (glucose syrup, algae oil, modified starch, sodium ascorbate, sodium polyphosphate, sunflower oil, tri-calcium phosphate, emulsifiers: sunflower lecithin and mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids; natural flavouring, antioxidants: tocopherol-rich extracts and ascorbyl palmitate), soybean oil powder (soybean oil, maltodextrin), pea protein, lupin protein, thickener: guar gum; strawberry pieces (1%), beta-glucan yeast concentrate, mineral blend (calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, potassium citrate, sodium chloride, ferric pyrophosphate, zinc sulphate, copper sulphate, manganese chloride, potassium iodide, sodium selenite), anticaking agent: silicon dioxide; beetroot juice powder (beetroot juice concentrate, maltodextrin, acidity regulator: citric acid), acidity regulator: citric acid; glucose syrup, vitamin mix (vitamin C, niacin, vitamin E, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, vitamin B1, vitamin A, vitamin B2, biotin, folic acid, vitamin D, vitamin B12). Holy actual shitballs on fire – 1% Strawberry pieces. That’s it. I’m SOLD! People – I give you – the most toxic meal on the planet. No wonder you’re losing weight – your body is literally crying out for food! How many of those ingredients do you recognise or can pronounce? This makes me so angry that I could go on forever but I think I have made my point. The meal replacement diet cycle (let’s see how many of you can resonate with this). Replace meals —> Feel hungry —> Over Eat —> Feel Guilty —> Start diet again —> feel hungry —> over eat —> Feel Guilty… There is the word that makes me feel really sad. “GUILT”. Losing weight and getting your health back should be GUILT FREE. Long term dieting creates a negative mindset and this is NOT WHAT I STAND FOR......Healthy diet and exercise is the ONLY way to go ..
