Ooooooh hi! Love your channel👋🏼
😊
Please compare water filtration methods (filter, RO, distill). Also, make a less confusing b12 guide.
why not filter then distill. up front cost ~200 USD ongoing cost ~10 per month
I wish I could get my mother to watch this. She is 💯% on the JuicePlus smoke and mirrors show 😢
Just play it for her…
Let’s assume you eat a normal (poor) diet and want to do something good for your health, then a few capsules containing 2 g each won’t do the trick. Rather, a smoothie or sprouts would do more for your health. Or microgreens.
Maybe, but the pills are much easier and practical. Besides, they’re supposed to be highly concentrated.
Back in the olden days the FDA would shut down that type of business.
Will there even be an FDA after the oligarchs now in power and project 2025 dismantle our government? How about CDC, EPA, FTC and any other regulatory body that impedes the further wealth of corporate America? After all why shouldn’t billionaire Dr Oz be allowed to sell his “magic weight loss bean?” <- not joke, he actually had hundreds of snake oil products promoted on his popular show.
how would encapsulated fruits/vegetables cause liver damage?
Could happen with heavy metals if the veggies are produced using herbicides and pesticides I guess.
Yup, another one is the Prevagen scam.
I deeply regret ever giving this company any money. But I look at it now as a step forward to eventually adopting a plant-based diet. For health and for the animals.
👍 Whole food plant based for the environment and health; vegan for the victims!
*Ask your city government to sign the Plant Based Treaty!* 🖖
I used to be an independent distributor for NSA, and we introduced juice+ in Paris and Europe back in 1994. Great products and great marketing plan.
