Polycystic Ovaries (PCOS)

Juice Plus is certainly helping people in many ways. Below are a couple of messages from people whose lives have changed now due to taking the shakes and capsules. If you would like to see other testimonials please click here and join the group.

"I am a customer & a rep, I take the premium capsules and I can honestly say it has helped me so much! I was diagnosed in August 2014. I was always in pain with my right side, missing most days at work. I could never really get out of bed and when I did I would have to lay back down shortly after, my skin was breaking out, I never had any energy and nothing the doctors gave me would work. So in September 2014 my sister introduced me to the juice plus + premium capsules and I have never looked back! They really are magic... I will continue to take them as I don't know how I coped before. For anyone who is looking for help when it comes to your health I personally 100% recommend juice plus+"

"From 5 years ago I had irregular periods and from a child IBS.. I started on juice plus shakes and capsules a week ago, aswell as the business 1 month ago and I am so happy to say that both of them are now solved thanks to juice plus.. So happy.. Thanks for introducing me to the products and business.. Can't thank u enough xxx"

Air Cadet weekend....

Well what a weekend it has been, hence why I haven't managed to post anything here. Time to make up for it now though.

The first special event I would like to share with you is my son's Air Cadet Annual Dinner. He has been in the cadets since June 2014 but this is the first dinner that we have attended. It was chance to get glammed up in our fancy dresses and suits, which isn't normal for us I must say.

 

 Unfortunately my daughter didn't attend with us but Connor did have the company of his grandparents and my partner. We had a thoroughly good evening with lovely food, music and dancing and there was even a photo booth there which was busy constantly with the cadets wearing an assortment of accessories. Formal photos were also done at the beginning of the evening.

Planning wasn't as good though as the dinner fell on the evening before their Remembrance Day parade and church service so there was possibly some bleary eyed people the following morning as it was 9.30am gathering. The first service and laying of wreaths went smoothly, the day was dry with a little bit of sun which was also a bonus. After this service the cadets formed up alongside others and marched along the high street to St Paul's church for another service.

The way the cadets marched was absolutely wonderful, all in time and very smart. They should all be very proud of themselves. After the service they formed up yet again, unlike some other cadets who just walked out of church and scattered in all directions, and again marched back to the other end of the High Street. Lots of lovely comments were made and people certainly looked on with admiration at them all.

Well done to everyone. A wonderful way to finish the weekend. I look forward now to next year's gathering.

See you all soon.

The buzz...

is absolutely amazing when you go to a Juice Plus event.

I was lucky recently to be able to attend the Juice Plus Brighton 2015 event. It ran for 2 days and had many inspirational people giving talks. There were talks about the company, the Child Health Study, lots of testimonials and people were rewarded for achieving goals and levels reached. To actually meet these people and know that its all real and not just stories on the internet gives you such a buzz and sometimes the stories really do pull at the heart strings.

Everyone is just one big happy family who are out to help others become fit and healthy and all become part of a wonderful business. Financial freedom, holidays, more time with the family, no boss, no alarm clock, no commuting for hours before and after work, working wherever and whenever you want and just general job satisfaction are some of the things available to you.

Please click here to see some of the fun its possible to have.

 

Hope you've enjoyed watching all the fun.

Where do you want to be 2yrs from now?

 

See you again soon

Pyramid scheme vs Network Marketing

"Oh yeah, Juice Plus, typical pyramid scheme, you'll never earn anything worthwhile from that!"
How many times have I heard that since I've started in the business. Juice Plus is NOT a pyramid scheme but is Network Marketing.

Lets take your local big name grocery store as an example of a pyramid scheme.
At the top we have one big boss. Under him you will have a few Deputys and then under them several Supervisors, followed by floorworkers/cashiers, and then cleaners.  Only one person is ever in that top position and that is the boss man himself. If and when he leaves it wont be a cashier who takes his place, she may not have even been promoted, but it will be someone of the same level or just underneath. The boss man will then be there for a certain length of time and nobody can progress to his position.

                                                                    

In Juice Plus / Network Marketing everyone gets a chance to be at the top position. There isn't just one position, there are as many as it needs. People work hard, get promoted each step of the way and there is nobody stopping them reaching that top position, only themselves. If we dont want to work hard and be promoted and just want to remain at a lower level then thats our choice, if we want to work hard, be recognised and aim for a better life and way of living then we can progress to higher levels. Whats even better is we get paid bonuses as we progress and our rate of pay changes in line with the level we are on.

Sleep

                                                            
It’s 12 AM and Netflix is calling your name. What’s one more hour…right? Turns out, it could mean the difference between a day of eating right or a day of eating—well—anything in sight. Get your pjamas ready.

According to a recent study, 62% of adults who got an extra 96 minutes of sleep each night reported that their daytime junk food cravings decreased by a whopping 50%. Why? As it turns out, sleep deprivation can wreak havoc on the metabolism—because staying awake at night requires more energy than sleeping, your body overcompensates the next day by releasing “hunger” hormones that send your appetite into overdrive. And if you’ve ever been in a meeting stocked with doughnuts after a late night, you’ve probably learned that your body isn’t hungry for fruits and vegetables.

Okay, so get more sleep. Easier said than done, right? It turns out that focusing on sleep has a profound effect on a healthy lifestyle, providing a 32% increase in productivity and focus, and an energy boost for higher fitness performance.

Sometimes the hardest part of getting enough sleep is being able to wind down from a busy day. But when it comes to bedtime, fruits and vegetables are at the rescue! For a quicker, restful night of Z’s, skip counting sheep and start counting on these 5 fruits and vegetables to help you sleep.

1)      Kale: Dairy products are well-known calcium-rich foods. But green leafy vegetables, such as kale and collards, also boast healthy doses of calcium. And research suggests that being calcium deficient may make it difficult to fall asleep. Load up on this trendy veggie before bed and your body will be thanking you in the morning.

                                                      

2)      Cherries: Cherries are one of the only natural sources of melatonin, a sleep-promoting hormone. Have a handful an hour before bedtime; if fresh ones aren’t in season, go for cherry juice or the dried variety.

                                                   

3)      Bananas: Bananas are chockfull of potassium and magnesium, which both help to relax your muscles to give you a peaceful night’s sleep. Plus, they contain the sleep-inducing amino acid tryptophan, which ultimately turns into serotonin and melatonin in the brain. Both promote relaxation and sleepiness.

                                                     
4)      Tomatoes: Grown on the vine, tomatoes are a natural source of melatonin, a chemical produced by the body during sleep. Although it is recommended to get fresh sources, tomatoes can be found in sauces, paste, and even in ketchup. They are also full of antioxidants!

                                                   

5)      Passion Fruit: If anxiety’s what’s keeping you up, you’ll be passionate about passion fruit. Passion fruit contains several medicinal alkaloids, including the sedative compound Harman, which has traditionally been used to treat anxiety, insomnia and restlessness.

                                                       
Now that you’re armed with healthy sleep aids, what fruits and vegetables will you eat for a better night’s sleep?

Juice Plus capsules contain some of the above items so by taking 2 of each capsule a day you will be getting your daily allowance. There are 30 various fruit, vegetable and berry items in our capsules and chewables.

In the kitchen...

Well I'm not normally one for spending any more time in the kitchen than I have to so today I've done quite well!

To start with I made a watermelon, onion, mint and feta cheese salad. What inspired me for this dish was visiting a wonderful gluten free restaurant called 'Dough' in Manchester during the summer. We tried some lovely dishes and this looked so simple to do. As I'm starting my first nightshift of 4 tonight I've made some extra to take in another day. I'm certainly looking forward to trying it later.

                                                               
The second dish was just a snack I fancied before turning to something bad. Scrambled egg with mushrooms and advocado. I used half an advocado for this and then put the other half in with some coconut milk, nutmeg and vanilla Complete Shake ready for later before going to work. Just love my advocado shakes at the moment, they are so tasty and filling.

Water...

Drinking water is essential and can benefit you in so many ways. Advantages include:

* It keeps the skin clear by pushing toxins out of the body
* Promotes weight loss by boosting your metabolism
* Boosts energy by restoring vital nutrients within your muscles, hence better productivity
* Relieves constipation by improving digestive health
* Its a natural remedy for headaches
* Better exercise
* Less cramps and sprains
* Less likely to get sick
* Relieves fatigue

I have set myself a 7 day challenge of drinking 3 of these #onesimplechange bottles of water a day. It holds 1.5 pints so 4.5 pints equates to roughly 2.5 litres. I also drink peppermint tea at the beginning of the day and occasionally at the end of the day so altogether I should be taking about 3 litres of water. Will weigh at the end of the week to see what the difference is.

Boosters.....

Welcome to the Juice Plus Boosters..

Our JP Boosters are not only a health supplement, they're also a fantastic weight loss aid.  A completely natural product designed to help you lose weight.

* Glucomannan derived from Korjac plant and is 100% natural * Water soluble fibre * FDA approved as completely safe * Contains ZERO calories * Reduces blood sugar levels * Reduces cholesterol * Acts as a weight loss aid * Decreases calorie intake by 25%

The Boosters are designed to reduce your weight by what they do with your food, its not a case of you taking them and then start losing weight. Really it works within your diet itself, so it actually reduces your chloric intake by around 25% as well as all the benefits listed above.

* Eat clean and often alongside our incredible boosters and you will have a body to die for in no time. You can even try them alongside our shakes and capsules or use them as a stand alone product.

All you need to do is add water and drink. You can take a maximum of 3 a day, most people only have one a day because they're so filling. You will receive 90 sachets in your order.

If using 3 a day you can have these before your 3 meals. It is recommended to take them 30-60 minutes before your meal. If using 1 a day its up to you when you take it, but if there is a time you are more susceptible to snacking then I would recommend taking the booster 20-30 minutes before that time.

Take some before and after pictures and your measurements to monitor your progress.

If you have any questions then please message me. As mentioned in the video, there is no obligation to follow the food plan but your results will be heightened if you do.

Bye for now

Angela :)

Welcome...

Hello and welcome to my blog.

I hope you find the posts I publish interesting. If you would like to order any of the items I talk about or have any questions then please feel free to get in touch with me.

I started Juice Plus after trying several diets in the past - Weightwatchers, Slimming World and Herbalife being the main ones. As I am a Coeliac and unable to eat wheat, barley, oats or rye I found Weightwatchers and Slimming World awkward as I had to swap lots of foods and work out all their values and points. With Herbalife the counting of protein every time I wanted to eat was a chore. Had I had enough? What could I eat next? In the end the weight that I had lost just went back on as I totally lost the plot!! When I saw that Juice Plus was all gluten free that interested me even more and I was eager to give it a go. I started taking the Complete Shakes and the Fruit and Veg capsules at the end of June and to date I have lost 14lb and 22.5cms. Even though the weight is coming off slowly I am happy that my shape is changing as I am almost down 2 jeans sizes. I am sleeping soundly at night and wake up in the morning with plenty of energy and enthusiasm for the day ahead. My hair, skin and nails are the best they've been for years.

I joined the business 2 months later as I was so pleased with my progress and wanted to help other people benefit from these amazing products. I have met lots of lovely people (male and female as anyone can do this job) and have enjoyed a weekend away in Brighton at a Juice Plus event. I heard lots of inspirational stories here and got lots of information about the products. I have another event in Birmingham to look forward to next year where I am hoping to take member/s of my own team. Even though I've only been in the business a couple of months, the money I have made so far will be used when myself and my children go to Dominican Republic next year, where they are now going to be able to swim with the dolphins.

I will update regularly with my loss and progress so please come back and visit again soon.
