Juice PLUS+: The Keys Towards Better Functioning Bowels!

Juice Plus+: Education and Support:
Wendy Campbell R.N.

I start people with any irritable bowel symptoms/Crohn’s/Ulcerative Colitis etc with Gummies first as they don’t have a lot of fiber. The antioxidant value in them starts to heal the bowel and then I gradually introduce the capsules with that fabulous thing – FIBER.

The American/Australian diet of processed food, too little fibre, erratic eating habits, medications, stress and disease slow down the peristaltic action of the GASTROINTESTINAL (GI) musculature resulting in 95% of our population leaning towards constipation and other GI conditions. And, it’s not just a problem with FEELING BAD since most of the nutrients consumed to FUEL OUR BODIES are absorbed in the small intestine.

When the intestine is “FULL”, it is difficult for the nutrients to climb through the “SLUDGE” to the side of the intestinal wall, connect to the blood stream then be whisked away and utilized by every cell in the body! Picture the intestinal track as a long tube stuffed with this “SLUDGE”. Then picture adding some FIBER, kind of like a “STEAM ENGINE”, to this blocked system. All of a sudden you may have PUFF, PUFF “SMOKE” coming up; puff, puff “smoke going down” and possibly a little cramping here and there.


Most people have little trouble adapting to Juice Plus+ and find that whether they tend towards “constipation” or “irritable bowel syndrome” (2 opposite sides of the spectrum of GI health) they enjoy “BETTER REGULARITY” quite soon. For some, however, this initial discomfort may lead to their wanting to just give up before the “engine” (fiber) has had a chance to do it’s job!

With education on the importance of bowel motility for proper absorption of nutrients and a sympathetic and knowledgeable ear, people will follow through on the steps to good health if you help them understand the “WHY” and the “RATIONALE” and SHARE a little guidance. Since it took a LONG time to get this intestinal system INTO this poor shape, it sometimes can take a few weeks or more to get the motility of the intestine back on track. The very FIBER IN THE “Juice Plus+” that appears to "cause” the problem of cramps, gas, etc. WILL EVENTUALLY BE THE CURE! However, “BOWEL TRAINING” is required to get the intestine moving properly.

When helping people with specific disease or long-term constipation we sometimes have to work harder at getting the system going! Most people would suggest going DOWN from 2 & 2 JuicePlus+ capsules to only 1 fruit & 1 vegetable capsule a day…but that is NOT going to solve the problem! SOLUTION: According to a number of experienced HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS, the best solution is to initially “DOSE” Juice Plus+ at intervals with “BOWEL TRAINING” the objective. Phenomenal results are achieved when accompanied by encouragement, guidance and compliance to this program for 2-3 weeks.

THE BOWEL TRAINING SYSTEM: Take 1 Juice Plus+ Fruit Capsule at breakfast, 1 Vegetable Capsule at lunch, 1 Vegetable Capsule at dinner and 1 Fruit Capsule before retiring for the evening. This gives a little "UMPH" of fiber bolus to the intestine at regular intervals and helps return proper peristaltic motion. Taken at regular time intervals with a little food and a lot of water, success is achieved 9.9 times out of 10!

Hope this Helps!

Do You Remember Being Made To Write 100 Lines in School?

I was thinking about this subject while on a very relaxing train journey just the other day. From all the learning and personal development I have been doing over the last couple of years, I am very aware of how powerful positive affirmations are. My main 'inspire-res' are Wayne Dyer & Louise hay when it comes to affirmation stuff, and I am so grateful to them for sharing their knowledge with me & the rest of the World.

Affirmations are powerful even if you just keep thinking them, but if you write them down they become even more powerful, it reiterates the thought, because you have focused enough to write the words down, and now you can see the words as well, read them out loud, and then you can hear them too, can you see why it is more powerful?

While I was thinking about the affirmations my mind wandered off to my school days, which were certainly not the best days of my life (another story there!!) going back to  junior school, I can remember on several occasions have to write 'lines' do you remeber them? If we were 'naughty' we had to write out 100 times, something along the lines of " I must not daydream" (as if that was naughty!!!!)(Ask Steven Spielberg lol)      "I must not speak unless spoken too"    A very old fashioned thing, BUT, it is what we got taught as kids in those days (Im only 50 by the way). The teacher probably meant for us not to speak  in the class room, but the words would always be remebered by the child, and they would have written it down (which means they have thought it & seen it) ONE HUNDRED times, can you just imagine how powerful that is? and the effect it would have on the child every time he or she wanted to say something or ask for something, those words would their in the subconsious.... stopping them speaking out (anyone with thyroid problems!!!!).

I started to think then, that if some kids had been given 100 lines, something like....

"I don't deserve....................... OMG How damaging would be!  When we say/see/hear something over and over like that, it becomes a belief, and that is the 'truth' that we live by forever, unless we become aware of it and begin to consciously change it.  Your conscious mind may not be aware these old negative affirmations any more , but your sub-conscious mind sure as hell is! And that is what led me to write this blog post..

Can you remember what '100 lines' you ever wrote at school?  Let me know, im very interested in any feedback here.

Thank heavens for therapies like EFT that we can use to reverse these limiting beliefs!

I hope this post inspires some of you to reflect on any limiting believes, or false premises you may have, and start to clear them away.... moving forwards

Don't forget to let me know what your '100 lines' where (if you have any of course!)

Bye for now ((((Smiles)))))
