Just wondering if anyone has tried juice plus and if so we're there any noticeable benefits? A friend of mine has become a rep for the company and has been putting up a lot of testimonials from people with fibro saying it has worked really well with helping reduce pain levels and increase energy. Just wanted to do some of my own research before giving it a try.

Ponzi scheme! If you follow decent, balanced diet you don't need this. It's expensive and you will be subject to auto ship. That means you get charged for product automatically at regular intervals. Good luck returning it. And, if this product actually had any merit, don't you think we'd all be using it? Take care.

Ah, a neighbor gave me the spiel on that, and another one, and another one, and.... Yeah, no. I have been a vegetarian. I own a juicer. Despite 25 years on epilepsy meds? Sterling clear bloodwork, and my fibro was in remission for eight years for no reason other than combo of baseline good health-living habits, luck, and my rheumy had FM, so he could give *real* good advice about exercise, stress management, etc..

Nerd alert! Usually, if your ailment is "cured" by vitamins? You didn't have fibro. You had a nutrition insufficiency----as people with celiac will have fibro-like symptoms, b/c of the issues that disease causes with nutrient absorption.

However, meds can affect nutrient absorption, so can stress, and so forth. So if you can *afford* a trial run? Give it a trial run.

Most such things I'v efound are snake oil, buyer beware, and run it past a doctor before you do anything, maybe? You can get sick from *hyper* vitaminosis (too much vitamin or mineral), too.

Luck and blessing.
