Reply to "Nutrition Help Please"

Hi John. I have looked into Juice Plus and it is very much just a scam. There are lots of docs on the internet showing that the "studies" they have to back up their claims were sponsored by their parent company and aren't double-blind studies. In fact, those pills have less nutrition than a multi-vitamin. Do not waste your money! As for fruits and veggies, I have difficulty as well but juice isn't sufficient because it doesn't spend enough time in our gut to absorb fully. The transit time is quick and the surface area of our small intestine to small to realize benefits. Are you most certain it's every fruit and veggie? With some "effort" to digest I have found some that are annoying but tolerable:

well cooked broccoli
butter lettuce / live lettuce
cucumber no skin
bananas
apples no skin
blueberries a couple at a time
baked fruit no berries
cauliflower well cooked

There are more, but each person needs to try a little here and there to find it.

Jennifer
