Love, peace and elbow grease….

I stumbled upon an amazing product that fits in with my training so well…and I thought that I should share it with everyone here.  It is called Youth Juice. It’s an excellent way to fill the gaps in your diet. As someone who was skeptical about the benefits of Youth Juice^TM, I can walk you through any doubts you may have. I think you'’ll find that after a little investigation, it’s something you don’t want to miss out on.

One of the most popular questions I get is “are there any products you recommend to achieve a healthy body?” Every time I would answer, “no there are not.” Well the time has arrived that I have come across something that is pretty good. It is called “YJ” or “Youth Juice.” The popularity of juice has gone crazy. Many companies that sell them are now billion dollar organizations. Why are people spending so much money on juice? Most bottles sell for $30 to $60. I can tell you why. The companies that sell the juice are marketing their product to the public claiming “incredible” actually, “magical” weight loss, health and energy benefits. Why wouldn’t anyone want these improvements if they were as easy as drinking a juice?

My stance has always been that your body will take care of itself as long as you provide the right environment for that to happen. No product will change how you look or feel. The right amount of sleep, exercise and proper nutrition is the key. The belief that you can trash your body throughout your life and then drink a juice to make it all better would make you very naïve. Actually it would make you stupid. We all want the easy way out. We all want to believe that there is a product to delay aging, give us more energy, help us lose weight, and remove pain from our bodies. Sorry to say folks, it does not exist. So why am I endorsing a product when I don’t believe in anything that really works?

Let me tell you why I like Youth Juice:

1. It is an organic whole food product. There are ten ingredients, seven different types of berries and three sea vegetables, one being seaweed. These foods have an extremely high dose of nutrients.

2. It contains 100% of the Recommended Dietary Allowance of the vitamins and minerals you need daily to support a strong immune system and healthy cells.

3. Youth Juice was made in conjunction with a government research grant. The findings of the research on the product can be found at www.checkthescience.com.

4. It has the highest anti-oxidant content of any product on the market. Anti-oxidants are well know for fighting free radical cell damage caused by such things like sun damage, pollution, bad foods we ingest, and stress.

5. The first ingredient is raspberries. Most juice products list filtered water as their first ingredient. Why pay so much for a product where the number one ingredient is water?

6. You can justify the cost of the juice by the contents in it. If you were to buy the organic berries and vitamins YJ Juice contains separately you would be spending much more.

7. It tastes really good.

When you go to the YJ web site, there are testimonials that YJ has helped with joint pain by acting as an anti-inflammatory, increase your daily energy levels, and slow down the aging process. I cannot say for sure you will experience any of these things. Let me tell you what I do know. Every day cells in your body die and new ones are created. In six months the cells you have today will be replaced by a completely new set. Having healthy cells is vital to achieving the weight loss and fitness level you desire. When your brain, nervous system, organs, circulatory system, and muscles are functioning efficiently and without illness, you are more likely to achieve the body you have been striving for your whole life. To get to this position I recommend three things:

1. Get an eating plan set up for you specific for your metabolic rate. You need to know how many calories your body needs daily for it to perform intense exercise, get the nutrients to keep your cells healthy, but no extra that will be stored as body fat.

2. Get a proper exercise plan that you can maintain long term. The plan has to be specific to your current fitness level but also progressive to make sure you are constantly forcing change. The plan should contain a minimum of two to three resistance training workouts, plus five sessions of cardiovascular activity weekly.

3. Try YJ juice to supplement any nutrients you may not be getting from your eating plan. Even if you eat perfect, you may not be getting all the nutrients you need from our food supply. Poor soil nutrient content, transportation delay of getting foods to you, plus the quality of foods available to you all affect nutrient content.

If you would like to buy the juice by single bottle to try it out it is $55.

If anyone wants info about this fantastic product please don’t hesitate to ask!
