JuicePlus+

Today, I'm so excited to share with you such an important element of my life - Juice Plus+!

As a mom, one of my biggest worries is how to feed my family with the best food to fuel their energetic activities each and every day. With my husband who works a demanding job, my 10 month old who is busy crawling over every square inch of our house or my two crazy, Shiba Inu who crave their neighborhood walks, getting them to eat a balanced and healthy meal is a daily battle. 

Heck, it's a battle to eat a balanced meal myself! This is why I love Juice Plus+.

Juice Plus+ is a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, and 2 grains in capsule or chewable form.  How big of a variety? 17 – 26 servings, people! I can be honest and tell you that I have NEVER been able to take in 17 servings of fruits and vegetables in a single day of my entire life before taking Juice Plus+. And now, I am reaping the benefits of 26 servings each and every day. And the best part is that it takes no time at all and doesn't feel like a chore. I eat the chewable version of Juice Plus+ and they taste just like Gushers! (Now my sweet tooth can be satisfied while still getting the antioxidants and phytonutrients I need!)

Now, in an ideal world, we would all be devouring fresh fruits and vegetables all day long but do you know anyone who lives in an ideal world? Not me! I live in the real world. The world where I may not eat breakfast until 10:30 a.m., where lunch may consist of whatever is easiest to shove into my mouth with one hand and where dinner is often pulled together in 15 minutes. Of course, I try to eat fresh fruits and vegetables as much as I can but quite honestly, it just doesn't happen nearly enough. Did you know the recommended amount is 7-13 servings a day? How many of us are falling short of that goal every single day? This is why Juice Plus+ is so great - you are getting at least 17 fruits and vegetables every single day!

Now, for the skeptics - I used to be one of you. When I first heard about Juice Plus+ from a friend, I instantly thought it was a gimmick. There's no way they can get a decent amount of fruits and vegetables into a capsule. And even if the variety was expansive, certainly the serving size couldn't be enough to make a difference. Is that what you're thinking right now? Well, I thought the same thing until I fired up my juicer one day. I was piling in all kinds of fruits and you know what I ended up with? A whole lotta liquid. The manufacturers of Juice Plus+ remove the liquid in a drying process that preserves the nutrients so you're left with... the awesome, good for you stuff! 

And what exactly is this awesome good for you stuff? Get a load of this ingredient list:

"Juice Plus+ Orchard Blend contains seven of the most nutritious fruits around: apples, oranges, pineapple, cranberries, peaches, acerola cherries, and papaya.
Juice Plus+ Garden Blend contains ten nutrient-dense vegetables and grains: carrots, parsley, beets, kale, broccoli, cabbage, spinach, tomatoes,  rice bran, and oat bran.
Juice Plus+ Vineyard Blend contains nine nutritious berries - including blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, bilberries, and elderberries among many more." - source

Why do you need fruits and vegetables? They are packed with antioxidants such as beta-carotene (found in orange fruits and vegetables), lutein (found in green, leafy vegetables) and lycopene (most commonly found in tomatoes). And then add the boost in vitamins such as Vitamin C and Vitamin E. These antioxidants and phytonutrients help our bodies to beat heart disease, cancer and stroke. Because I don't know about you, but I want to be around to see my little girl raise her little girl. :-)

So yeah, I know - we all hear that we should be eating more fruits and vegetables. But do you really know how much it can change your life? In the 6 months that I've been taking Juice Plus+, I've seen a spike in my energy that I've never had before (even pre-baby!), more nourished and clearer skin, weight loss (whoohooo!) and a stronger commitment to eating right. I really can't explain the drastic difference I feel as a person, especially a nursing mom. You must try it!

But who really backs up Juice Plus+? Do you know that so many medical professionals actually recommend and stand behind Juice Plus+? Ever heard of Dr. Jim Sears from the television show The Doctors? Or Dr. Bill Sears from AskDrSears.com, a medical consultant for Parenting magazine? You're going to want to watch this video -

Now, I am not saying that you can spend all day eating junk, then take your Juice Plus+ and pat yourself on the back - after all, Juice Plus+ is not a miracle drug. But all of us want the best for our families and sometimes, the daily grind just gets in the way of serving up the best of the best every day. With taking Juice Plus+ every single day, you can be sure that your family is getting the fruits and vegetables they need.

Now that we've got you excited about enjoying Juice Plus+, who else can feel as awesome as you will?

Your Spouse, Your Friends, Your Parents

Juice Plus+ comes in two easy to consume forms. They are so easy to eat that you'll have no excuse! There are capsules that you can take with a meal and a glass of water - Easy Peasy! There are chewables that you can munch on on your way to work with your breakfast - Even Easier Peasier! And for a little cherry on top, there is a Juice Plus+ Complete - a powder drink mix that you can chug as a breakfast replacement drink, or a recovery shake after your workout to help feed those muscles you just tore up - Yummy Chummy! (<~~~ Ignore that Konglish, will ya?)

Your Child or Baby

I started taking Juice Plus+ because I was nursing exclusively and I knew that that I wasn't even close to eating the daily recommended amount of fruits and vegetables. With a newborn relying on me for every ounce of nutrition, Juice Plus+ was my miracle. There is no possible way I could have given her a bigger head start in good nutrition. And there is no possible way I could have stayed awake long enough to take care of the little one without this nutritious boost!

If your children are older than 1 year,  they will gladly eat the chewable forms of Juice Plus+. Before then, you can add the contents of the capsules into their bottles or into their baby food to give them an early start!

And check this out - You can get Juice Plus+ for your children for free for up to 3 years!  The children have to be between the ages of 4-18 or full-time undergraduate college students. Parents, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, etc. simply sponsor the child by buying and taking Juice Plus+ and filling out a few surveys each year.  Its called the “Children’s Health Study” and the findings are astounding!

Your FurryBabies!

This is what I'm most excited about! You all know that I'm a big promoter of good canine nutrition. We choose to feed Ryu and Roxy natural, holistic brands of dog food that incorporate real meat along with a variety of fruits and vegetables. But these little guys deserve even better! You can toss in a capsule of Juice Plus+ into their dog food bowl, (along with a fish oil capsule!) and know that their insides are thanking you! (Just remember that your little furry ones can't have the yummy Vineyard Blend because it contains grapes!)

Are you totally excited to try Juice Plus+? Now that you're ready to get these into your bodies, let me break it down for you:

You can also reap the benefits of 17-26 different servings of fruits and vegetables for just $41.25 – $74.00/month which comes out to $1.50 – $2.50/day. Let's be honest here people. For $2.50 are you able to purchase 26 different fruits and vegetables PER day? There's no way! I drank an Odwalla smoothie this morning that cost $2.50 and it only contained 6 fruits! Juice Plus+ is such a value in this regard. So, kick that Starbucks habit and pick up a Juice Plus+ habit! Because we are about to make it easy for you!

Because we love Juice Plus+ so much, Bark and Giggle has decided to start distributing this amazing product to all of you! You know when you find something so fantastic, you just can't keep it to yourself? That's how I feel about Bark and Giggle products and that's how I feel about Juice Plus+! I never thought I would ever sell something that I didn't make myself but Juice Plus+ is honestly the best wellness product out there. I want you, your kids and your pets to feel as awesome as I do!

You can find even more information on our website at:
www.barkandgiggleforjuiceplus.com

or you can jump right in and start receiving your own Juice Plus+ by ordering online!

My personal recommendation is to start with the Juice Plus+ Chewables - Adult Serving (this includes Garden Blend and Orchard Blend) and the Juice Plus+ Vineyard Chewables. Why do I like the chewables? Because they taste just like candy!

Of course, we also like the capsules because we toss them right into Ryu and Roxy's food bowls!

If you have any questions or issues at all, I want you to email me right away. You will love the way you feel after getting this stuff into your body!
