Juice Plus+® Clinical Research
Juice Plus+ is the most thoroughly researched brand name nutritional product in the world.
The healthful benefits of Juice Plus+ have been studied and demonstrated time and again. In fact, independent clinical research studies have been (or are being) conducted by investigators in leading hospitals and universities in the United States, England, Australia, Germany, Austria, Italy, and Japan.
Clinical studies published in peer-reviewed scientific journals have demonstrated that:
Juice Plus+ delivers key phytonutrients that are absorbed by the body.

There are numerous examples of published, peer-reviewed clinical research
Read More There are numerous examples of published, peer-reviewed clinical research showing the bioavailabity of select nutrients found in Juice Plus+. Recently, for example, in a study conducted at UCLA Medical Center/Georgetown University Medical Center Juice Plus+ was shown to increase the bioavailabity of various nutrients in an overweight population. The bioavialabity of Juice Plus+ has also been shown across the age spectrum-including in young adults (University of Florida) and in the elderly (University of Arizona, Brigham Young University). Internationally, the bioavailabity of Juice Plus+ has been demonstrated in research subjects in Australia (University of Sydney), Europe (Medical University of Vienna and King’s College) and Tokyo (Tokyo Women's Medical University).
Juice Plus+ reduces oxidative stress.

Several investigations have reported that Juice Plus+ reduced specific indicators of oxidative stress.
Read More Several investigations have reported that Juice Plus+ reduced specific indicators of oxidative stress. For example, studies conducted at both the Medical University of Graz, Austria, and the University of North Carolina-Greensboro showed that Juice Plus+ Orchard, Garden, and Vineyard Blends together were effective in reducing a marker of oxidative stress associated with aerobic exercise. Improvements in other markers of oxidative stress have been noted in studies of more sedentary people in both the United States (University of Texas Health Science Center) and England (King’s College London).
Juice Plus+ helps support a healthy immune system.

A healthy immune system protects the body
Read More A healthy immune system protects the body, and good nutrition is important for a healthy immune system. Published clinical research indicates that Juice Plus+ supports several measures of immune function – in law school students at the University of Florida, in elderly people in a study conducted at the University of Arizona, and in an elite special forces group in a study conducted at the Medical University of Graz, Austria.
Juice Plus+ helps protect DNA.

A diet rich in nutrition from fruits and vegetables is also important
Read More A diet rich in nutrition from fruits and vegetables is also important to protect DNA from oxidative damage, which can weaken the structural integrity of DNA. DNA becomes damaged and fragile when exposed to oxidative stress; antioxidants from fruits and vegetables can help protect DNA from this damage. Studies conducted have shown a reduction in DNA damage after taking Juice Plus+ in young adults at the University of Florida and in an elderly population at Brigham Young University.
Juice Plus+ positively impacts several key indicators of cardiovascular wellness.

Several investigations have found that Juice Plus+ positively impacts various indicators associated with cardiovascular health.
Read More Several investigations have found that Juice Plus+ positively impacts various indicators associated with cardiovascular health. A clinical study at the University of Sydney reported that subjects taking Juice Plus+ showed a reduction of homocysteine levels – even though their levels on average were already within an acceptable range. Researchers in Foggia, Italy also found a reduction of homocysteine levels, this time in subjects with elevated levels of homocysteine. Researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine have found that subjects who consumed Juice Plus+ were better able to maintain the elasticity of the arteries, even after a high-fat meal. Investigators at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine monitored several measures of vascular health in a low risk population who took Juice Plus+ Orchard, Garden, and Vineyard Blends for two years. They noted various improvements with no adverse side effects.
NSA is dedicated to advancing the body of peer-reviewed and published scientific research on Juice Plus+, and has been for well over a decade. Toward this end, the company reinvests a portion of its profits each year to awarding competitive grants for sponsored research projects at leading institutions around the world. Much of the work featured on this page was funded in this manner.
