The Stress of my Studies...and Juice Plus!

I am currently studying Retail Marketing at the University of Brighton, and I love it. I have honestly had an amazing two years so far and now am in my final year. 

As much as I loved it...I also hated it at times. I would struggle with stress of my work load, not really organising myself efficiently and not getting things done with time to spare. I went from assignment to assignment always worrying about something and never believing in myself that I could do it. Well this year is going to be totally different. 

Juice Plus has already helped me in the last few weeks, and it is only the beginning of term. Being in the final year has a lot of pressure, you have your dissertation to write as well as about 50 million other assignments and commitments that you have to juggle. I currently have all my module assignments, one of which is a PR module where I actually have a live client that I have to be in contact with 24/7, my dissertation to research and start, I am now running my own Juice Plus franchise to help support myself, I am part of the Universities hockey team, I have a flat that needs cleaning and looking after, plus all my friends and family too see. So at the moment I honestly feel all over the place and my brain is a sieve. 

However I made a promise to myself at the beginning of term that I wasn't going to let things get on top of me and I was going to organise myself accordingly and stay positive! 

Well I am in my third week of Uni and already I have had one melt down! It was to do with my dissertation, I felt like I didn't have a clue what I was doing, how to figure it all out and felt like I had no one to turn too. After a good chat with my boyfriend, a meeting with my tutor and some sitting down and concentrating I am actually in a really good place now. I have my dissertation topic and am comfortable about what I have to do. 

Since starting Juice Plus in the summer I have seen incredible results and not just physical ones but mental results too. Whether it is the Juice Plus or the fact I have learnt the importance of Fruit and Vegetables in our diet, who knows but since understanding what stress can do to the body I also now know how to handle it better. So many people have complimented me on the way I am, people think I am confident and out going, trust me I am not! I hate talking to strangers and I hate putting myself in new situations but the more people comment on it and the more I start to believe it, the more I am pushing myself to do new things. It's an incredible feeling not being held back by your own insecurities. 

I have started to change my view on the way I deal with things and now I feel I am able to keep calm in difficult situations and even if I am feeling over whelmed I just remember that getting stressed and panicking does not achieve anything, it will only make your body ill and cause more damage in the long run. Take a look...
If anything, sit down, make a list and work your way through it, and remember there is always someone out there that can help you what ever the problem, you just need to look for it. Also I do not recommend reaching for the chocolate or crisps...comfort food is not the way forward, again this will only make it worst! Reach for a herbal tea and an apple...

Let Your Food Be Your Medicine

During some research for a friend of mine about the difference between juicing fruit and taking juice plus I discovered something very disturbing and yet interesting. So here goes from the beginning... 
OR            

After a few hours of research there is not much difference between juicing your own fruit and vegetables to the available Juice Plus products and programme. However in order to get enough nutrients in to your body means you must drink the "fresh" juice morning, noon and night. This is a problem in itself. People often start off with great enthusiasm but soon become disheartened and fall off the wagon. This is mainly due to every day issues; travel, time constraints, cost and getting quality products. The last issue is possible the most inconvenient, in order to have this lovely juice morning, noon and night you must pay out a fortune to get the perfect, high quality and fresh produce. In this day and age, prices seem to be going up and up, making it almost impossible for us to get the products which will do us the most good. Instead the government and food corporations have made it so the nation want, crave and need fast, fatty foods. Frozen food is most popular as it is convenient, cheap and easy to make. So that is where Juice Plus steps in, making it much easier to obtain, maintain and get above and beyond the recommend daily allowance of fruit and vegetables. 

"Juice Plus was compared to juicing early on, the study showed it took over a pint of fresh juice made from the same 7 fruits and another pint of juice from the same 8 veggies to get the nutrient equivalent to Juice Plus." (http://www.drmitraray.com/q-a/q-and-a-juice-plus/#juicingdestroy)

However Juice Plus has moved away from this type of research to one that concentrates on the effects  Juice Plus has on the body. 

Juice Plus is made from juicing different fruit and vegetables together. The juice is then dried in an extremely temperature sensitive proprietary process, during which the water is removed. This is so that when you add in water to Juice Plus, you reconstitute real food with active, bio-available nutrients. Bio-available means that it absorbed by the body instantly suggesting you are then benefiting from the huge amounts of nutrition immediately. The same as you would from juice but it is the amount of nutrients that is key. There have been numerous healthy studies that show how the body and various systems, such as immune system, respond to Juice Plus, showing that it can potentially heal or at least improve bodily functions and help fight disease. 

This is where I read something that shocked me. 

In the question and answer section, someone had asked "Will Juice Plus interact with my blood thinner?" Now people take blood thinner for problems such as blood clots, but by eating a whole plant-based diet is the best way to prevent your chances of getting thrombosis and blood clots. The marketed name for this medicine, that doctors will provide you, for such a problem is Warfarin, Jantoven and Waran. Like most pharmaceuticals, it is a synthetic form of courmarin which is naturally found in plants. So now why would you take a synthetic form of something that you can find already in foods that you can eat daily. As well as this, the synthetic courmarin was developed as a way to kill, yes kill, rats and mice. It is still used today for this purpose. The reason why, if on these drugs, you need frequent blood testing is to make sure that the dosage you are taking is within a "safe" limit. How unbelievable is that!! 

After reading this I was absolutely shocked that doctors, people who are here to help us get better, are simply giving us poison instead of educating us on the benefits of healthy eating and changing your lifestyle to suit your bodies needs more efficiently. They are only interested in profit and the pharmaceutical industry is one of the largest. Is it not true they are trying to put a ban on growing heirloom seeds to produce your own food? Soon you will only be able to get genetically modified seeds. 

"Let thy food be thy medicine", you can find that quote in the bible! 

Once you think about it and start to doing some research, it is so obvious that all we need to survive  is provided for us by the planet, and that most of the common illnesses today are down to poor diet, malnutrition and consuming man-made synthetic food. 

Therefore I feel my choice to consume Juice Plus seems so clear to me and makes sense. It's not easy to eat the right foods and give your body the key ingredients it needs to support our busy lives, but Juice Plus allows me to achieve this.  I urge each and everyone of us to find alternative methods to treating illness and diseases because we have the means on this planet to cure ourselves. Obviously I understand that not everything can be cured by eating the right food, but that is because those types of illnesses are man made to keep our population numbers down and more likely need man made medicine to combat it. 
I chose Juice Plus, you may chose something else similar, but if you can't find what your after then please get in contact with me today and I can help you change your life for the better.

Life is worth living to the PLUS+

Many of you will know Bear Grylls, for those who don't know him, he was part of the British Special Forces where he unfortunately suffered a life changing injury. He is now mostly know for his TV adventures, which leave him stranded in the middle of nowhere and he has to find his way back to civilisation.  Since starting my own Juice Plus journey, I have discovered various other "celebrities" who use it to. Bear Grylls being one of them but also many sporting athletes as well.
The reason I have chosen to speak about Bear Grylls is that he has a very active and dangerous lifestyle and therefore he must take incredible care of his body to ensure that he survives all his trips. Whilst being part of the British Special Forces, Bear Grylls unfortunately had a very terrible accident and was only a teensy bit away from being paralysed. It was then his mission to get back to health and climb Mount Everest. Do you know what got him back to health quickly after his accident? Yes, Juice Plus along side physical therapy. Do you know what he took with him on this trip to the top of a mountain where people can die, and even a couple did lose their life whilst travelling with him? Yes, Juice Plus again!!! 

"Everest is all about surviving and running on limited reserves for many weeks at a time," he explains. "Juice Plus+® was like liquid gold to me up there." 

Bear Grylls understands the importance of fruit and vegetables to maintain a healthy diet but realises that getting what we need to carry out the day is hard and that's where Juice Plus comes in. 

 "It’s just a simple, natural way to help our whole family work towards the daily nutrition from fruits and vegetables that we all need."

So he has been taking it since he was a teenager and now he shares it with his whole family and claims that they have never been healthier or happier, even his wife who was skeptical thinks its amazing. 

All I can say is you have to try it to believe it. I can talk until I'm blue in the face about this amazing product but you may still be waiting on the fence.  I personally have lost two stone without even trying, and now I look and feel amazing. I can honestly say that I will continue to use this product due to the incredible health benefits it has and know that I will be better for it in the long run. 
 
If you want to know more then please get in touch. If you don't believe me then please do some research and see the hundreds of other users who have experienced amazing results too.

Lastly, the world is a not a safe place, new illnesses are being discovered every day and the general health of the population is often under the microscope. According a BBC News report (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-21654536) many deaths are happening because the NHS is not good enough at preventing illness or the treatment provided is not as good as in other countries. A few of the leading causes of death were heart disease, cancers and chronic lung disease, which can all be linked to smoking, high blood pressure and obesity. 

I'll let the pictures do the talking....

 
Plus many more benefits.... Just ask! Stop waiting and thinking and start doing.

The wonders of Juice Plus


I have spent many years struggling with my weight, fluctuating all over the place yet never happy with the image in the mirror. 


I'm not exactly big, ranging from a size 10-14, (yes I said ranging) however I am only 5'3 in height and therefore find myself thinking I look a lot bigger for my size. I have also spent the majority of my life being heavily involved in sport, particularly Hockey. Which means I have quite large thighs and struggle to find jeans to fit my legs and bum. It has always got me upset on many occasion especially if there is a big do coming up or a special event as I can never find anything nice to wear that suits my shape.
However its not all doom and gloom for me. Once I met my current boyfriend Scott and he filled me with incredible body confidence and I was happy but for only a little while. Every now and then those nasty thoughts would creep back in and we would argue. He would be frustrated and I would be annoyed he didn't understand. Plus he would order take-away upon take-away or do a late night run to the shop for chocolate and sweets. Being human I couldn't resist.
 After many of my friends and family had seen great results whilst combining Juice Plus with healthy eating and exercise, I too decided to join and I have never looked back.

Only after being on juice plus for 4/5 months I have lost 2 stone.
 
Now I haven't been particularly strict and often fell off the wagon a lot but once I started and notice my progress I was so happy! My mood swings stopped. I felt better in my clothes. People noticed how great I looked and that made me even more confident and determined. My skin cleared up, I often suffered with eczema and I haven't seen any the whole summer. I also suffered with IBS, always being uncomfortable and bloated, but now that has cleared up and I feel fantastic. I still have naughty days but I know my body can handle breaking it down and therefore don't feel so sluggish and tired. 
I am so pleased with my results and want to encourage people to try this! If your not interested in loosing weight then that's ok. Juice Plus is not only for weight loss but can be used to bulk up, tone up or just give you a healthier lifestyle. There is nothing more healthy than eating 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day, in this day & age who actually gets the chance to do that? This is where Juice+ steps in and helps to bridge that gap between what we should be eating and what we are eating.  Juice Plus provides your body with 26 different fruit, vegetables and berries which are absorbed into your blood stream straight away and therefore starts working from the very first sip! However it is much more than just a product containing vitamins and minerals from nutrient rich fruit, vegetables and berries. The various nutrients provided by Juice Plus products work together to complement one another helping the body in a much more efficient way. 
I am now even more determine this autumn/winter to keep up my weight loss up and reach my goal weight of 9 stone. However I have been told I may look ill at 9 stone, and I may loose my curvy figure so am aiming for 9.5stone but if I go lower I won't complain! I am also looking forward to enjoying this winter without getting a cold or illness. Which means no more sick days at work so more money for me!!! Usually throughout summer I struggle with hay fever and summer colds but this time around I have not suffered once so therefore I know this winter I will be illness free, meaning I am able to enjoy the holidays and the food and the parties! 
I have also saved a lot. My food bills have decreased as I buy less junk food and more fruit and vegetables. I don't really eat bread anymore and to be honest I don't miss it, I may have it on the odd occasion with a yummy fry up on a Sunday morning, but when I do have it I notice how bloated I get and sluggish I feel, so I can see how bad it is for me! My weekly shop has also decreased because I have two shakes a day and one main meal, I have no need for a lot of food in the house. Your allowed two snacks a day as well which can consist of just a couple rice cakes with peanut butter to a whole omelette filled with mushroom and spinach (if you like that). This programme also ensures you drink a lot of water, helping to flush out all the toxins.  So you can see I am not starving myself nor am I running around like a headless chicken doing unnecessary amounts of exercise. I used to ride my bicycle to and from work which is only about 20 mins three times a week and if I wanted to do more I would some times do a little work out in living room. 

I have now taken the plunge and have become a Juice Plus representative because I am so happy with my results and progress that I want to share it with everyone! I now have my own franchise and am building my own company the way I want with all the help I could possible need. Juice Plus products are cheaper than other similar brands, for example Slim Fast, plus it works better and has longer lasting results. It is a world wide product and has been around for over 20 years.
