Question 1

Can chronic kidney failure patient take juice plus supplement?

Accepted Answer

There are many brands of supplements, most of them will not have been tested for safety and efficacy. Please review the use of all of your medications and supplements with your physician.

Question 2

Hi can i take orlistat with juice plus ?

Accepted Answer

Orlistat is a lipase inhibitor that reduces caloric intake by preventing the absorption of fats.  Juice has little fat in it, so will not be particularly affected by the medication.  However, juice does have calories in it, and if one is trying to lose weight, there are likely better options for fluid intake.

Question 3

Hi have you heard of juice plus capsules ? apparently it's good for health and you feel good. true?

Accepted Answer

Juice Plus capsules have fruit & veggie extracts containing a variety of phytonutrients that benefit health. It's OK but it's even better to eat whole fruits & vegetables. However, extra amounts don't hurt but I'm not a big fan as it's not from organic produce.I think products like ORAC Energy Greens are far superior and it is organic.1 pack has the antioxidants of 24 servings of fruits & veggies.

Question 4

What about juice plus as a whole food supplement?

Accepted Answer

If you are having a mixed diet of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils, low fat milk products, you do not need supplements like juice plus.

Question 5

Can you tell me is juice plus complete good for weight loss?

Accepted Answer

After looking over the Juice Plus website, I still can't figure out what it is. There's no nutritional information.  How much protein? Fiber? simple/complex carbs?  I guess it is powered vegetables. Lots of hype.  As such, it will not hurt you, and if it fits into an overall good nutritional food plan it may be ok, but why not just eat vegetables and fruits?

Question 6

Hi, i am considering taking juice plus. do you know if there are true benefits or is it a waste of my money?

Accepted Answer

Save money by not buying "supplements" advertised to give health benefits, unless one's doctor specifically recommends the product. Rather than buying juice plus, a person can eat plenty of true vegetables, some fruit (but not too much fruit), and take an inexpensive multivitamin each day. For women, be sure to get enough calcium and vitamin d to keep bones strong.

Question 7

I have juice plus chewables that expired are they still safe to take?

Accepted Answer

In general, recommend against use of expired medications / supplements.

Question 8

Has anyone heard of juice plus? it's supposed 2 be very healthy and i'm thinking of trying it. wanted some info beforehand if possible.

Accepted Answer

Yes, I've heard of it-- and also Dr. Black's Texas Super Food, and Frutein, Spirutein, Ultimate Meal, Ultimate Energy, Mega Food Daily,Vega One-and on and on and on.  Getting a daily hit of dessicated fruits and vegetables will do no harm and maybe help a little, but check out the competition, the ingredients and the pricesThen calculate the "price per" of your favorites (e.g. $$ per gram protein)

Question 9

Is juice plus capsules ok to take with throxine for an under active thyroid?

Accepted Answer

Juice plus+ has several products, and since they are not medications approved by the fda, juice plus+ products are probably not tested for interactions and side effects like real medicines are. So, that means nobody really knows what side effects there are. If a juice plus+ user hears of some interaction or thinks he is getting a side effect, he can visit his primary care doctor.

Question 10

Any feedback regarding juice plus on hypothyroid patients? not looking to cure but to feel better without leaving my medication.

Accepted Answer

I like that juice plus is a concentrate of healthy fruits ; veggies but several of its ingredients are on the ewg's dirty dozen list of most pesticide-laden produce ; there is no indication juice plus is organic. You'd be far better off choosing a product like orac energy greens which is entirely organic or wildcrafted; one serving has the antioxidant power of 24 servings of fruits ; vegetables.
