The year 2020 will live in infamy as a season that has tested the foundations of families, business owners, worldwide health, and our sanity. It’s often said, “If we don’t have our health, we don’t have anything.” One key to thriving in today’s challenging environment is to have daily intentionality to implement strategies that support our health and success. Today’s focus is on how I’ve strengthened my family’s foundations by intentionally increasing the nutrition level and variety of my family’s diet.
Thankfully, my wonderful, Midwestern husband typically handles the cooking in our household. He’s a meat and potatoes kind of guy all the way. His cooking is phenomenal, but fruits and veggies aren’t typically on his radar, so our family’s nutritional scale is heavily skewed.
After the great “lock-down” of Spring 2020, I was officially in the worst shape of my life, but I’d recently met a new friend who introduced me to Juice Plus+. I discovered hope in the form of over 30 concentrated whole fruits and vegetables in the form of a capsule or chewable! Is taking a fruit and veggie capsule as good as eating fresh fruits and veggies? Absolutely not. But for a mom and business owner who is attempting to bridge the nutritional gap in my family’s diet, it’s an absolute game-changer! I was skeptical at first, but I am so thankful I kept an open mind and researched.
Juice Plus+ initially drew my interest because of their Healthy Starts for Families program, which provides free fruit and veggie chewables or capsules to kids aged 4 – college, with the sponsorship of an adult purchase, so my daughter and I gave it a try. Juice Plus+ is very clear that they made no medical claims. Some people experience tremendous changes in their bodies, and others don’t feel the proactive and positive rejuvenation within their cells. I was further reassured when I read some of the 40+ clinical studies on their products and learned that they are third-party certified through NSF.
Juice Plus+ is essentially food in capsule form. However, it was nutrition that I hadn’t received in years due to multiple allergies. For some reason, I can ingest the concentrated version of food that would typically cause an allergic reaction if eaten fresh. I was amazed and found a new sense of energy and hope! In my daughter’s case, the Juice Plus+ chewables have significantly improved the chronic digestive challenges she has battled since she was three. When she didn’t have the typical pain associated with a routine visit to the bathroom, the sense of relief and joy on her face was priceless!!
Everyone has a different story and a unique experience in their life’s journey. However, I challenge you to be intentional each day by strengthening your foundations for success. Be intentional about your health. Invest in your future with Juice Plus+!
