Information copied from the following web site: http://www.nutritionaloutlook.com/article.php?ArticleID=2186
Ron Prior, PhD, a researcher at the USDA???s Arkansas Children???s Nutrition Center (Little Rock, AR) who has conducted a significant body of research correlating the relationship between the composition of agricultural produce and the effects on health, noted in his findings that ???among all common fruits and vegetables in the diet, berries, especially those with dark blue and red colors, have the highest antioxidant capacities.???1 This mention of color is important because anthocyanins, a class of flavonoids, are also responsible for the red to dark blue pigmentation in many plants. These anthocyanins, along with proanthocyanidins, are among the major phytochemicals common across berries and are known to be effective antioxidants.
A current practice is to measure antioxidant capacity using methods such as oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), troloxequivaent antioxidant capacity (TEAC), and ferric-reducing ability of plasma (FRAP). These tools improved upon the quantification of the compounds in natural products by giving us the added dimension of measuring antioxidant activity, but they are insufficient for what we really need, which is identification of the actual effects on body function or a disease state. For this we need to progress to better physiological assays and clinical trials.
Arguably the ORAC method is the most commonly used for measuring antioxidant capacity; for this reason it is important to be aware of the pitfalls and misuses of the method. For instance, there are significant variations in the assay itself. We have seen as much as 25% variation in values coming from the same independent lab on the same lot, completed in the same lab run. The researchers themselves have cautioned against overreliance on published studies for comparative purposes, noting that changes in methods, limited sample sizes, variations in growing conditions of the produce, and wide variations in antioxidant activity between cultivars (varieties of the species) make it difficult to form a valid comparison. An example of the latter is blueberries, which have high ORAC values on the average, but some cultivars have very little antioxidant activity. Who knows what cultivar is on their plate?
More troubling is how values of antioxidant activity are used in advertising. Too often, ads proclaiming a particular fruit to have ???the highest antioxidant activity??? are sponsored by a manufacturer or grower???s association that may change the unit of measure or serving size, ignore the difference between fresh and dry weight, and/or ignore more recent analyses therefore casting their fruit or product in the most flattering light.
They are, after all, chemical assays that give us a benchmark of an ingredient???s radical scavenging potential, appropriately used for this purpose. But they do not tell us what happens physiol

Health benefits of the acai berry include its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant and antimutagenic properties, and its benefits for the cardiovascular system.
Acai fruit contains Omega-3 and Omega-6 as well as Omega-9 which help lower "bad" cholesterol.
The following information on acai is from wikipedia
The Acai Fruit
Acai berries are harvested as food. In a study of three traditional Caboclo populations in the Amazon region of Brazil, acai palm was described as the most important plant species because the acai fruit makes up such a major component of diet (up to 42% of the total food intake by weight) and is economically valuable in the region (Murrieta et al., 1999).
The juice and pulp of acai fruits (Euterpe oleracea) are frequently used in various juice blends, smoothies, sodas, and other beverages. In northern Brazil, açaí is traditionally served in gourds called "cuias" with tapioca and sometimes sugar. Acai has become a fad in southern Brazil where it is consumed cold as açaí na tigela ("açaí in the bowl"), mostly mixed with granola - a fad where acai is considered as an energizer. Acai is also widely consumed in Brazil as an ice cream flavor or juice.
As acai deteriorates rapidly after harvest, its raw material is generally only available outside the immediate growing region as acai juice or acai fruit pulp that has been frozen, dried acai, or freeze-dried. However, several companies now manufacture acai juices, other health drinks, and sorbets made from acai berries, often in combination with other fruits.
The above information is from wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acai
Acai fruit is sold in various different forms. Pure dried acai, organic acai, acai juice, acai supplements, acai pulp and so on.

Well, I guess we've flogged this puppy to death, time to turn out the lights and call it a day. Many tThanks to everyone posting here, especially the negatory whiners, for increasing MonaVie product awareness. Many of those people that have been contacting me through my website over the past several days had never heard about MonaVie until they saw this mad flurry of instanity haha. Best of luck on your water 'SPINNING IONS' and your yerba 'CANCER' mate and everyone else that's trying to schlock their crap on the coat tails of a great nutritional company, namely MonaVie. See everyone at Convention in September, seating is limited and from what I hear they are starting to really go fast, so make sure you register NOW at On The Move, before there are no seats left.

Hey WATERBOY, if it's on YouTube it HAS TO BE TRUE!!! I am sooo glad you shared the link with us. It's always refreshing to have world class credible sources you can count on hahaha. From the website that brought us 'Lighting Farts Gone Wrong', now brings you ALKLINE WATER, the TRUE STORY!!! At least water isn't a scam ha, and it's very rare stuff too. Oh God, it's the negative ions scam all over again, what took you so long, it was almost 10 years ago when the last one was shut down. ooOOOOOoo E2 and everything. Is E3 coming out soon? I hope so, and I think I'll wait for E3, just give me a call when it does, I hate having to upgrade all the time. haha Here's the thing. Water is H2O, if you change anything oh like removing an electron, well then you get something else, it's called an EXPLOSION. You can't damage or change the molecular structure of H2O, if you do then it's no long water or liquid, it's a gas or some strange slimy thing. Water DOES pick up crap in its' travels, you simply filter it through reverse osmosis or distillation and the contaminants are gone and once again you have PURE WATER, H20, all electrons intact, all electrons spinning in the right direction. Your Water Club is REAL, and your E2 water is just frikkin H20.. water.

According to the USDA, antioxidants remove free radicals from the body which can run rampant and actually damage cells, causing serious illness. Many health professionals use them for treatments of stroke and neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. They have also been helpful in treating brain injury and may slow and even prevent development of cancers.
There are numerous choices for antioxidant-rich foods, but which ones are really the best? The USDA tested over 100 foods from all categories and developed an authoritative list of the top 20:
The Top 20 Foods Highest In Antioxidants
small red beans
wild blueberries
red kidney beans
pinto beans
cultivated blueberries
cranberries
artichokes
blackberries
prunes
raspberries
strawberries
red delicious apples
Granny Smith apples
pecans
sweet cherries
black plums
russet potatoes
black beans
plums
gala apples
I think I can buy all of these things at the grocery store.-
Posted By: GetYourFactsRight @ 08/12/2008 12:42:06 PM
Yup, you can buy all those great fruits and vegetables at the grocery store or farmers market, but you probably won't. Just like 78% of everyone posting here won't. I would bet that there are even smokers posting here about health and what to do about getting healthier, but are they going to quit smoking... NOPE, probably not, but they know it???s going to eventually kill them. We live in a society that knows absolutely everything about health and nutrition but does virtually nothing about it. Yes, we join health clubs, we go twice and then that???s a bust. Anyone have a treadmill or stair master or stationary cycle in the basement or garage collecting dust? Any nice fruit & veggies turning into science experiments in the bottom of your fridge? We???re just a lazy society. MonaVie is a solution for that EASY state of mind. And it is easy to do, nothing to peel or cook or cut up, just pour and drink. At least MonaVie people are doing SOMETHING to improve our society???s health, one person at a time.

"Having the largest number doesn't necessarily mean the best," according to Ron Prior, PhD, who helped develop the procedure at the USDA Human Nutrition Research Center in 1995. "It depends on the foods and what phytochemicals are in there and what happens during the absorption and metabolism process. We're finding some of these compounds are metabolized extensively or not absorbed effectively and so not much gets into the blood or absorbed into the tissue."
Even if an antioxidant is effectively metabolized, each has its own strengths in terms of which free radicals it most effectively scavenges. So, in striving to meet the USDA's recommended level of 3,000 to 5,000 ORAC units daily, people probably need to consume a variety of types of antioxidants.
In other cases, the critical factor appears to be which antioxidant is present in a food and which free radical it's fighting. "Some of those that are highest ??? particularly berries ??? the compounds primarily responsible for their antioxidant activity are anthocyanins," said Prior. "Those are rather unstable and not that much gets absorbed." -

There is a lot we know about Monavie that makes it a SCAM. Too many crooks involved with the company and the study that was done on the juice. If people prefer the pour in a bottle solution to their health they are know they can get their juice at a fraction of the cost of what Monavie cost elsewhere. It seems when your company does not have a unique product, your only choice is to build your business on hype, false claims and other deceptive tactics. Building a business based on a juice that can be copied so easily along with hype filled testimonies that many times cross the legal line into medical claims will catch up MonaVie. The hype only lasts so long. Too many "juice" deals without any kind of composition patent is going to kill off many of these companies unless they come up with something unique and protected with a patent. Very unethical company!!!

I go to an Organic Farmers Market by my house to buy my veggies and some fruits. Very cheap and fresh. You can't beat that, unless you have your own garden. Tomatos are best right when you pluck them, so they are great in a garden. Tomatos are high in Vitamin C, which fights cancer cells.

Posted By: Lillydee @ 08/12/2008 2:31:07 PM
Jaime-d,
You wrote this in an earlier post to me: ???How foolish are you? No one making claims you say. It appears after reading through this article and everyones post on this article, that the Monavie sales force are making a miraculous amount of claims that it cure some kind of disease. They are making it out to be more than what it is to make a sale and it appears the FDA has already issued a Warning against MonaVie. It is a very interesting article by the FDA. Once you make those kind of hideous claims then I know for certain the FDA will come crashing down on MonaVie. Once you start referring to curing diseases like a doctor, then that juice, you so call it, will be considered a DRUG.....??? These were your words so, I guess the same thing goes for these tomatoes you speak so highly of. You should probably be careful about making hideous medical claims. Your tomatoes may soon be considered a drug, and your Organic Farmers Market might get shut down by the FDA. I believe fruits , vegetables, and Juice are healthy, and can help us with medical issues. Eat healthy, Live healthy, Be healthy. -

Dietary antioxidants such as vitamins C and E can limit cellular damage from free radicals, which are damaging molecular fragments produced by the body. However, warns Norman I. Krinsky of Tufts University School of Medicine in Boston, studies in people have never "adequately" established a direct connection between antioxidant consumption and prevention of chronic disease. Overconsumption may even prove harmful.

Posted By: kharv @ 08/12/2008 12:45:14 PM
I just wonder how much of those products listed you would have to consume in order to equal the amount of antioxidants contained in MonaVie.
Not to mention the cost factor, and storage space needed for a months supply of those products.-
Posted By: dsqard @ 08/12/2008 1:23:09 PM
Answer to your question: 3.5 oz of prunes will give you over the RDA ORAC points of 4000. Yes the acai has much more than prunes or anything else on the list. Unprocessed cocoa actually has a higher ORAC score than the acai berry. By the way, I can go to the grocery store (no requirements for auto-ship there) once a week. I do not have to store a month's worth of prunes or any other fresh produce in my fridge. I am not saying that the acai berry is not good for you I am saying that you can get antioxidants in many other fruits and vegetables for less money.

There are so many discrepancies in this article, I am surprised it was allowed to be published.
1. There is not one person involved in MonaVie that says you are responsible to "sell" 8 bottles a month.
2. Who are the critics calling this a "legalized scam"? Do they have names, and medical backgrounds?
3. Who is going to pay "Around $40 a pop" (MonaVie Active retails for $45) when you can get it between free and $35?
Am I on Newsweek or www.theonion.com ? Because this read like an article from theonion.
Funny stuff, thanks for the laugh.

Purchasing organically grown fruits and veggies does not mean they are more nutritious or even safer for that matter. Here is a good article on AFIC.org regarding going organic.
http://www.afic.org/Going%20Organic.htm-
Posted By: Jamie-d @ 08/12/2008 12:20:27 PM
That article or website would be in reference to a grocery store that sells organic foods. I would suggest an Organic farmers market, the best source of vegetables and fruits without the synthetic fertilisers and pesticides.
-
Posted By: dsqard @ 08/12/2008 12:56:31 PM
As you can see below, the smaller the outfit (i.e. farmer's markets) the more likely that something marked "organic" has not gone through "organic certification" by the USDA. I am not badmouthing small farmers, just showing that the "organic" stuff bought in a grocery store is just as good if not quite as fresh.
-
Posted By: dsqard @ 08/12/2008 12:51:29 PM
The organic crop production standards require that:
??? Land must have no prohibited substances
applied to it for at least 3 years before the
harvest of an organic crop.
??? Soil fertility and crop nutrients will be managed
through tillage and cultivation practices, crop
rotations, and cover crops, supplemented with
animal and crop waste materials and allowed
synthetic materials.
??? Crop pests, weeds, and diseases will be
controlled primarily through management
practices including physical, mechanical,
and biological controls. When these practices
are not suffi cient, a biological, botanical, or
synthetic substance approved for use on the
National List may be used.
??? Preference will be given to the use of organic
seeds and other planting stock, but a farmer
may use non-organic seeds and planting stock
under specifi ed conditions.
??? The use of genetic engineering (included in
excluded methods), ionizing radiation and
sewage sludge is prohibited.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has established an organic certification program that requires all organic foods to meet strict government standards. These standards regulate how such foods are grown, handled and processed. Any farmer or food manufacturer who labels and sells a product as organic must be USDA certified as meeting these standards. Only producers who sell less than $5,000 a year in organic foods are exempt from this certification.

Interesting article. I had a neighbor bugging me into buying this juice. Now I know why he kept bugging me. lol
Even though this article is a very informative article on Monavie why does THE-REAL-DEAL-RIGHT-HERE spam on here with his business? I would think that Newsweek can send him a bill for solicitation that is described in the service discussion guidelines for non-commercial purposes that a user agrees upon. His information is exposed to were Newsweek can bill him. It appears THE_REAL-DEAL-HERE is violating his user agreement as well as earlier post from Monavie Reps.. I just hate how people waste blog space with their spam material when your tring to read a blog.

One benefit for me was my cholesterol dropped 167 points!!! The product portion of this business is only one component of what makes this the best opportunity going. Other key parts include the support of a proven business building system, a solid leadership team, and a compensation plan that is simple to take advantage of.

Is monavie reps selling out? Is the MonaVie company market about to crash? Just from surfing Newsweek and reading this article about the company being a SCAM, I checked to see if anyone is selling their juice on EBay. Last week 220 monavie juice was for sale on EBay, this week 445 people are getting rid of their inventory. That is a lot of product being sold.
That tells me,
1. The product is not very consumable and is pilling up in homes
2. Reps are Inventory Loading to qualify for bonuses.... A huge No No in the MLM Industry and I know for a fact reps are doing that.
3. 445 people getting out of this pyramid scheme
4. A lot of people loosing money and trying to recoup their cost.
I'm sure it is a combination of all 4. Either way, it shows how much the reps do not want their product. Can you explain that one monavie reps? Why do the reps not want their product if it is that effective. Why would they go that route to put it on EBay? The majority of these 445 people selling their monavie juice are selling it by the case, that is 4 bottles or more. Now that is a lot of juice that reps do not want.
Something else that caught my attention on other auction sites; reps are selling their monavie business. What is up with monavie? Did the ball come crashing down on that company or what?-
Posted By: Lillydee @ 08/10/2008 3:06:16 AM
Mona Vie is sky rocketing right now! Nationwide!! Check it out , You seriously need to do a little more research. Bad or good publicity, it doesn't matter, people that didn't know about the product have become curious about it , and are checking it out. Human nature is a wonderful thing ! People want to know for themselves.

Posted By: JDW08 @ 08/10/2008 5:56:49 PM

-
Posted By: Lillydee @ 08/10/2008 9:44:36 PM
I personally don't sell, or distribute this product, Nor would i join an MLM. Therefore this is not my company. i could care less how much money they make. I am just stating that you have your facts wrong. i have a friend that ships, and warehouses this product around the world. They have a 10,000 square foot space for this product, and they can't even keep it in stock. And your talking about 500 bottles on E-Bay. That's just another way for distributers to get their products out there. Do your research!
-
Posted By: JDW08 @ 08/11/2008 11:02:45 AM
Facts wrong? Hardly???. Research; already done it and it appears many other people on this blog has done their research as well. Very interesting facts on the websites posted on this blog about MonaVie. For you to say monavie warehouse can???t keep the product in stock is a lie! Unless the reps are doing ((((( Inventory Loading ))))) to qualify for bonuses, which they have to order 2 case a month to qualify. That is a big No, No and illegal.
I never said 500 bottles, that is 500 cases X 4 bottles = 20,000 bottles. That doesn???t account for about 10% of that being 2 case sold. That is a lot of MonaVie juice that reps or customers do not want. It is a SELL OUT!!!!! You are too quick to answer and do not take the time comprehend.-
Posted By: Lillydee @ 08/11/2008 1:09:23 PM
I read your post wrong I apologize for that. Research and Math they must not be your strongest area of expertise.500 cases 4 bottles in each case is 2,000 bottles not 20,000 bottles. You would need to see 4,500 more cases on E-bay to amount to 20,000 bottles. That's a huge difference. Not even a drop in the bucket. Maybe you need not be so quick to answer, take some time to comprehend things a little better. I can not predict the future, this company could go down. I am just stating as it appears at the moment they are doing very well.

Ok, "The Real Deal Right Here" dude - you are effectively ruining this site as a resource page! You're overpimping your Tri-unity mega-church AcaiCRAP so that the rest of us are not looking at this blog site with any more added value. Stop with your repeated posting of the same o'l stuff. If you want to add something meaningful, then post it! Otherwise _ S_T_F_U!
