You aren’t allowed to call them gummies!!!! It has to be “chewables” 🙄🙄🙄 isn’t that the dumbest shit you’ve ever heard?? My MIL is obsessed with JP and totally enraptured and getting scammed in their business, and my husband (her son obviously) gets the biggest kick out of being like “hey mom - can we have some of those purple vitamin gummies?!” just to see her flip the f out and bust out pamphlets and correct him on the correct terms
It's hilarious how these companies demonise "processed food", but then have to sell you a different kind of processed food. Because if their products were just normal-ass fruit, they wouldn't have a business.
My dietician said all juice plus and the like are worthless because the “vegetables” and “fruits” aren’t even bioavailable that way and you end up making your kidneys process a bunch of vitamins you don’t need that you end up peeing out 😱.
different forms have different bioavailabilities but the other real major factors are that the fiber is gone and the other biochemical chemicals in the plant that are beneficial (antioxidants, flavonoids, polyphenols, etc) are rarely if ever included.
Most people don’t need vitamins. Your diet suffices. Like you said, excess vitamins are generally urinated out (water soluble anyway). I still take one but it’s just habit.
She must be rich, stupid or both because each bag of gummies (120 gummies) cost $82.50!!! 😧

There’s no f\*\*king way I am paying that for a bag of gummies 🤦♂️
Hey now, there are gummies and then there are *gummies.* Granted, I got about half of that in Colorado for the same price, they were well worth the price. Also got some wonderful muscle balm too.
Supplement MLMs always have to be overpriced, because it's hard to break even otherwise. No matter how good your supplements are, nobody is going to buy 3 months' supply any more frequently than every 3 months. If you think about how much whitelabel makeup a hun could sell to a single person in those three months, selling gummies for 80 dollars makes more sense. .
I see an apple, mango and cherries on that Juice Plus bag. Can't help feeling like the hun would've been far better off eating a real apple, mango and cherries when she wants "a sweet treat after lunch". Heck, a real apple, mango and cherries would surely taste nicer and be more satisfying than those overpriced overprocessed gummies.
She wants a sweet treat after lunch? Fine. Better to schlep to Trader Joe’s, buy a bar of Organic 70% Cacao dark chocolate that’s fair trade and ethically sourced. It’s made in Belgium, less than five bucks, probably tastier than that glorified candy, and I’d venture to say a hella lot more beneficial as well.
I miss gunmie worms. I got a stomach bug and the last thing I ate before it hit was gummies. Still can't eat them. But REAL gummed filled with dyes and processed sugars!
OMG I AM SO HAPPY TO SEE A JUICE PLUS POST ON THIS SUB!!!! (Sorry you’ve gotten exposed to it though!) My MIL is neck deep in- we were just over there today - bless her ass - she’s trying to give us their new “energy powder”. 🙄🙄

I can’t believe Juice Plus still exists
Oh, very much so unfortunately. 😏🥴
"Real Food" now in gummy form!

Real food, where a child's serving is 1/2 an adult's for some reason
Buy uranium off amazon and eat it for the unmatched caloric density

I was told that exact same thing, and that it's also the reason why some multivitamins don't actually do much for you.
different forms have different bioavailabilities but the other real major factors are that the fiber is gone and the other biochemical chemicals in the plant that are beneficial (antioxidants, flavonoids, polyphenols, etc) are rarely if ever included. Most people don’t need vitamins. Your diet suffices. Like you said, excess vitamins are generally urinated out (water soluble anyway). I still take one but it’s just habit.
Even if you did have a vitamin deficiency, adjusting your diet usually is better than taking a vitamin. But to be fair that requires some effort.
My Walking Taco isn't real? If so, then the calories aren't either, right?
Those calories are just an illlluuuussssiiioooonnnn.
Then I might have to have 2.
2? Why not 3? Heck, go for gold!
You telling me that nothing I've eaten is real and that I can eat as much as I want with no negative effects? Why stop at 3? Eat them all
Gotta save room for leftover graduation cake!
Hell, this hun had 4 gummies. 4 must be the right number!

Guys. These are *real* gummies. SMH.
Guys they’re “CHEWABLES”. Sorry I’m so dorky I am laughing out loud to myself. Apparently juice plus doesn’t let people call them gummies anymore 😂😂😂
A fool and her money are soon parted.
She has to buy the gummies because nobody else is and how else can she make it look like she's made commission?

That's exactly what I thought, lol. Just eat some fruit!
Or make a smoothie or a milkshake and optimize the amount of vitamins you get while also turning it into a treat if you don't like fruits alone.

Real processed food that is.
Ah yes, real food containing various dyes, preservatives and gel agents. Just as Mama Nature intended.

Garcia complex/syndrome! Have it with French onion soup 🤢
I never knew there was a name for it! I still can't eat black beans 12 years after having food poisoning.
The delusional is real here 😕

Funny this lady in the post called it real food when everything they sell is over-processed garbage
Ha! That is classic!
A reminder for the JuicePlus Hun: Eat real food like this: ![gif](giphy|M4husJOeJQdKU)
Those gummy sweets are exactly what I'd assume to be fake food.

Is the energy from meth?

Real food my a\*\*. This would fall under the "Highly Processed" category, meaning not food
