I've completely out of character just signed up and paid for this without doing any research and now I'm starting to re-think wether this was a good idea! Have any of you used this to lose weight and if so did it work?

I love juice plus I use it for training as I'm a keen runner and it's really helped me also I've dropped loads of body fat and am even getting abs now !
Even after my kids , I joined the business too lady year and have been able to leave my job and do this full time .
The capsules have helped with my hair too as it was falling out I think it's a great product !

What are you supposed to mix the juiceplus powder with ? water? skimmed milk? almond milk?

MumOf2Amber · 26/11/2014 11:07

I love juiceplus!! I have the shakes and capsules and my kids have the chewables. We have never been eating so healthy. The chewables have made a huge difference to my daughter who has special needs. She has ADHD, global development delay and learning difficulties. She obviously struggles with attention span and concentration. She has behavioural issues and her sleep is very disturbed. She was previously on medication for her sleep - she no longer needs it. Having the chewables is bridging the gap between what she eats and what she should be eating - they contain the nutrients of 27 different fruit and veg which is more than she would ever eat from food alone but also her body is now craving the healthier foods. We all have juiceplus recipes for our main meal as a family and the kids love them. Her concentration has improved and she is calmer. I am using the shakes for weight loss and getting great results but also keeping the weight off. I've tried other plans such as Cambridge diet - I lost weight and piled it straight back on, I felt awful and ill on the plan. With juiceplus I'm eating more than I ate before but I'm eating clean & I'm learning which foods are good! I have the capsules for added nutrients, my hairs growing and in great condition and my skin has cleared right up. Nutrition is such a powerful medicine :)

10forresto - you mix the shake powder with 250ml of milk alternative - so almond/hazelnut milk, rice milk, coconut milk, soya etc xx

Midwifefealicia - that really is serious bollocks.

Hakluyt · 26/11/2014 11:13

Oops-zombie thread. But it was still bollocks. As is Juice Plus- it's a pyramid selling scheme,.

If you stop and think for more than a minute, the 27 fruit and vegetable claim is clearly insane.

And of course you're going to feel and look better if you eat more healthily- juice plus or no juice plus.

Worra load of tripe. Next they'll say it cures cancer Hmm

Found this thread after looking for Juice Plus review's
I cam across this months ago and signed up to Juice Plus. I have tried lots of diets and had some success but always stopped as was'nt get the results I wanted. My friend started the plan and had great results. I was very ob the fence about it but took the thought why not.
5 weeks in and Ive lost 1 stone and inches. I would say don't be put off by the plan. Everyone is always going to have there thoughts on the diet.

gamerchick · 01/12/2014 15:49

Why were you looking for reviews if you're already doing it? You're not going to sign any reps up here.

selmiller · 04/12/2014 06:26

We live in world of growing obesity. In my point of view, exercise is the very important part of any healthy lifestyle. And some healthy food you have to add in your diet and sugar should be eliminated from your diet.

yarwood01 · 08/12/2014 08:48

gamerchick what has it got to do with you. I was asking people that are doing the diet. Why are you on this thread is you don't agree with the diet

gamerchick · 08/12/2014 09:24

You're still not going to find people to sign up Wink

yarwood01 · 10/12/2014 14:06

like i said i'm not here to do that I'm not even a rep. I was asking what people think. If yo don't like the product why are you looking for juice plus pages!!!!

gamerchick · 10/12/2014 14:57

Big site this, amazing what crops up Wink

yarwood01 · 22/12/2014 14:27

you have to search on here of this so that is a load of rubbish.
If people are using it and it works for them. Who are you to say that it rubbish

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 22/12/2014 14:36

It is a load of bollocks, and you don't need to search for it - because you two keep arguing it stays in Active Convos...

yarwood01 · 23/12/2014 08:24

thats your thoughts

EhricJinglingHisBallsOnHigh · 30/12/2014 10:26

Detox is a bollocks concept anyway and how could you possibly have 17 portions of fruit and veg in a capsule?
Of course you will lose weight if you go on a juice fast whether with added supplements or not.

yarwood01 · 31/12/2014 12:10

how is eating clean none processed food rubbish
That is what we all should eat. There is indeed 17 portions on fruit and veg in each cap and in so in the shakes. There has been studies done on Juice plus also

EhricJinglingHisBallsOnHigh · 31/12/2014 12:36

Non processed?
What are these capsules if not processed?
