Juice Plus Puts Children First

There is no substitute for eating a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, at least 7-13 servings every day. But if you're like most people, you don't eat enough fruits or vegetables or enough variety.  That's why there's Juice Plus. It's a convenient, affordable, and natural whole food based nutritional product providing nutrition from 17 vegetables, fruits, and grains. Taking Juice Plus capsules or chewables every day provides the nutritional foundation we so desperately need, but is lacking in our diets today.

NSA, the makers of Juice Plus are not only improving the health of families around the world, they take a special interest in improving the quality of life of children through the Juice Plus Children’s Foundation.  The Juice Plus Children’s Foundation provides financial and volunteer assistance to five outstanding non-profit organizations to support programs that help children and their families lead healthier, happier lives. Some of the charities are St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, UNICEF, and Boys and Girls Clubs.

In addition to supporting charities, NSA and Juice Plus Representatives cover the cost of Juice Plus for a period of one to three years for children ages 4-undergraduate college when they participate in the Juice Plus Children’s Health Study (CHS).  The Interim Results state that after one year of taking Juice Plus, parents of children in the CHS have reported a 63% less “sick” visits to the pediatrician and a 51% increase in their child’s academic performance in school.  For more information on Juice Plus, contact Juice Plus Representative, Niki Hitch at 704-301-7473 or visit www.FamiliesEatingSmart.com.
