Dorris Wedding mother of the bride wears in coral

I want to share a story:

As you know, I have 4 kids. But even before I had Zach I felt permanently exhausted (I'm sure many of you can relate!). I also suffer from depression. A year and a half ago I was struggling to keep on top of everything. On top of that my health wasn't great; I've never been very good at eating fruit and vegetables.

My friend Sarah, a biomedical scientist, had been posting a lot about something called Juice Plus+, which are capsules made entirely from fruit and veg. She shared how they had helped with her energy and her health. I got curious and decided to try them myself.

I've now been taking them for over a year and I won't go back. They have improved my life in so many ways:

- Energy! Though having 4 kids, including a baby, is tiring, I can really tell the difference in my energy levels when I forget to take my Juice Plus +; I have so much more energy to get through the day when I'm taking it. James has recently started taking it, too, and has also noticed the difference (we're talking a farmer with long hours here!) Dorris Wedding mother of the bride wears in coral

- Depression. This surprised me, but after I started Juice Plus+ my motivation levels went up and my depressive thoughts lessened. I haven't been on medication in ages.

- Health. (Warning: Tmi) I've suffered from constipation my whole life. I've noticed when I take Juice Plus+ consistently it really eases the problem. This is a big thing for me as a chronic sufferer!

- Kids' concentration! Their concentration at school seems to have improved since they started on the Juice Plus+ jubes (which I get free with my Juice Plus+). My kids are diagnosed with ASD, so as an ASD parent it has been really positive to hear from their teachers that they aren't having the issues with focus anymore.

- My fussy eater! Kate is very limited in her eating, particularly vegetables, so knowing she'll have the fruit and vegetable jubes every day gives me peace of mind that she's getting the nutrients she needs.

- In pregnancy. I had terrible morning sickness this pregnancy and couldn't keep down any food. I was thankful I was taking Juice Plus+ and knowing I was still getting good nutrients for both me and baby.

Why am I sharing this?

Because I love how Juice Plus+ has helped me and my family and I want to share in case it might help someone else. So let me know if you want more info on it!

(And if anyone else who takes Juice Plus+ wants to share how it has helped them, feel free to comment.)
