Children's Health
 As parents, we have our work cut out for us. Its hard enough to get kids to eat healthy
foods like fruits and vegetables when their taste buds are hardwired to prefer donuts, french fries, and pizza. Yet even
if were lucky enough to have kids who dont reject every green thing served to them, many of us find we simply dont
have the time to prepare healthy, nutritious foods every single day. Thats why so many moms, dads, and kids have come
to rely on Juice Plus+ the next best thing to fruits and vegetables.
On his CD/DVD Nine Simple Steps for Healthier
Family Diets, Dr. Bill Sears discusses the importance of eating a rainbow of colorful fruits and vegetables,
consuming good sources of fat like salmon and avocados, starting your day with a 'brainy breakfast', and adding Juice
Plus+ to the family diet.
You can watch a short clip of Dr. Sears below and his DVD in its entirety here.
Dr. Sears is on the Advisory Board of the
Juice Plus+ Children's Health Study. Established in 1999, the Childrens Health Study is a large-scale, multi-year survey
designed to formally document the effects Juice Plus+ has on the health and wellbeing of families
who take it.
The way it works is simple. For every parent, grandparent, or other adult who signs up as
a Juice Plus+ customer, the study provides Juice Plus+ capsules or soft
chewables free to a child (aged 4 and up), teenager, or full-time college student for up to three years.
At various intervals the adult participant is asked to fill out a voluntary survey to
determine whether (and how) their families health habits have changed as a result of taking Juice Plus+.
Based on the responses of more than 100,000 families who have submitted completed surveys, taking Juice Plus+ has far-reaching effects on health and well-being.
