My Story About Juice Plus +©
How a scientific test proved the value of
Juice Plus in my body.

I was at a cross roads in my life in 1997.
My father had prostate cancer and Alzheimer’s disease before he
was 55 years old. My mother in-law had a two strokes and
dementia before she was 75. I didn’t want early onset of these
diseases to plague my wife Janay and I. I found medical
journals on the internet and started doing research to find out
how to prevent these devastating health problems. I didn't even
have to go the the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences
Library.
I consistently
found in the medical research journals that consuming high
amounts of fruits and vegetables, lowering oxidative
damage, improving diet and lifestyle and targeted
supplements decreased the risk of cancers, Alzheimer’s and
dementia. The evidence was so convincing that I sold my
pharmacy and opened up Health Nut Rx
– Natural Care Solution in 1998. My goal was to
continue my research and to provide Natural Care
assistance to others in the Oklahoma City Metro Area.
After a few years of taking high doses of
multiple vitamins, vitamin C and vitamin E I found a test that
could measure oxidative damage in my body. I was
ecstatic! I could prove that I was
helping prevent our family health tendencies and that others
could benefit from my supplements and this test.
I ordered 10 of the Free Radical Oxidative Damage urine
tests. I did the urine test on Janay, myself and my
assistant Kris. I was
shocked! We all had Severe High
amounts of oxidative damage! I was confused and
disenchanted. What was I going to do? What other changes
could I make to prevent these terrible diseases?
Within the month Ellen Mercer came by, once
again, and gave me information and research abstracts about
Juice Plus. She was persistent! Trying to
be nice, I took the information, thanked her for coming by,
again, threw the information into my mail box and moved onto
my next Natural Care Consultation. Later that afternoon,
between appointments, I glanced through the Juice Plus
research information and noticed a study that measured
oxidative damage. I was
excited! I can do the same kind of
study with Juice Plus capsules!
I called Ellen and purchased one month’s supply of Juice
Plus for all three of us. We all took the 2 red fruit Juice
Plus capsules in the morning and 2 green vegetable Juice Plus
capsules in the evening. In 30 days we repeated the Free
Radical Oxidative Damage urine test.
All three of us had decreased our oxidative
damage from Severe High, down two steps, to High. Janay and
Kris continued the Juice Plus. Being a chemist and pharmacist I
went another step. I stopped the capsules and repeated the
Oxidative Damage Test after another 30 days. I
was not surprised! My oxidative damage
test was back up to Severe High. I was back on the Juice Plus
and became a Distributor. I’ve been taking and recommending
Juice Plus since.
"Juice Plus +© is one of only a few
products that has research showing and supporting it's benefit
in our body. Most dietary supplement companies
do
not do
actual human research with thier
products." Keith

The oxidative damage story continues. I
wanted to know why we were still in the High range of oxidative
damage. In 2008 I came across medical research showing high
levels of Toxic Heavy
Metals can
cause oxidative metals. You guessed it. We were very high in
several toxic metals including copper, lead and mercury. We
are now doing an oral chelation program along with our Juice
Plus.
