    I can show you how the Monavie business works and you can order the juice wholesale from our site. I'm a Bronze executive making 450 a week residually, (passive income) working daily with a Ruby and Blue Diamond that makes over 10g's a week. Anyone that applies themselves to this as a business can succeed because Monavie speaks for itself. All you have to do is pour the juice. I've seen people enroll under me that are already making far more money weekly than I make.

    My brother sells MonaVie and he talked me into trying it. I honestly drank it for about 4 or 5 months and had no noticable improvements in my health. He swears by the stuff and says that it helps his type I diabeties. Of course he can't stop taking his shots of insulin but he claims that it helps regulate his blood sugars. Personally, I think it is nothing more than very EPENSIVE fruit juice. You want to be healthy? Eat right, exercise and get plenty of sleep. That doesn't cost you and extra $130 + S/H a month. The multi-level marketing is what it is. I have seen other marketing scheemes and this is no different. I do find it funny that any time people start pointing out that an MLM is nothing more than a pyramid scheeme the "sales people" just start attacking. I wouldn't sell the stuff and I won't buy it any more. If you really need acai berries, there are a lot of products in your local grocery store that now contains them and they are not $40 a bottle.

      Wow...bad mouthing YOUR OWN BROTHER! I dont think I'd spend one waking moment even listening to what you have to say. The integrity level here is questionable. And, lets see..you said it YOURSELF...."You want to be healthy? 'EAT' right, exercise & get plenty of sleep". Well, MonaVie is considered a FOOD....its 19 FRUITS in a bottle.....so we aren't eating right????

      • Posted By: dsqard @ 08/04/2008 9:54:26 AM

        So JuiceForLife, just how many people have you signed up to sell the "food in a bottle"? I am not "bad mouthing" my brother for heavens sake. I just won't push a product on people that I don't believe is worth $40 a bottle just so that I can make money off of them. I don't have a problem with the juice, I have a problem with the MLM "way of life". If you think the juice is worth that much and makes that much of a difference in your life, by all means drink it. My brother swears by it as well and I don't try to talk him out of drinking it or selling it. Again, it it FRUIT JUICE not a magical miracle cure. There are just too many scams out there trying to fleece anyone who is gullible enough to try to sell it. If the product was that good, why not sell it in stores at the price that it is selling now? Why does it have to only be sold in a MLM scheeme?

        • Posted By: Drinking&SharingTheJuiceForLife @ 08/04/2008 11:33:47 AM

          As for your brother..I do want to apologize if I insulted you in any way, its perhaps the way you came across and I understand typing, texting, emails and such sometimes can easily be misunderstood and misinterpreted...so again...my sincere apologies if that wasn't your intentions. I just personally would not undermine my own brother if he was telling me something made him feel better and he had done research on it. Just sounded like you were not trusting your brothers judgment and questioning his intelligence....but again...thats just how it came across. Hope theres no hard feelings....just pay attention to what your brother is saying and AT LEAST RESEARCH it throughly...I know through personal experience he simply has your best interest at heart as far as wellness & preventative. You may not want to close your eyes to relational marketing (MLM) either... research what the Worlds 'financial forecasters are saying...this IS the wave of the future. home based, internet based, relational marketing. more and more companies will be turning to this...its NOT A SCAM. The facts are out there. I tell you this with sincerity because I too thought like you once about MLM's due to 'lack of knowledge', until one day I decided to go out and research for myself.

            Drinking & sharing the jucie for life, I have been reading some of the blogs about "Mona Vie" and was wondering if you could e-mail me some sites to look into Mona Vie specifically, and also if after I look into the available information how do I go about ordering some....as I do not have a computer at home can you please call me with the information at 520-512-5118. Thanks

        • Posted By: Drinking&SharingTheJuiceForLife @ 08/04/2008 11:24:39 AM

          Well, first of all its NOT selling...its SHARING the knowledge of a FOOD wellness & preventative product with others & letting them decide for themselves if its something they want for themselves and their family. Second of all lets just say I am in a very high Executive position now and have shared the juice with so many people that it truly excites me to know I have helped add nutrition and wellness to many lives out there, like your brother, my own father, aunt & many more. As for the MLM scam...dont take it from me...a total stranger on a blog that could be making up stuff...consult with educated successful individuals & read their PUBLISHED articles and books, such as, Robert Kiyosaki, Donald trump, Paul Zane Pilzer, Maria Ramirez and more. As for the miracle cure...noones making any drug claims just simply stating good nutrition is crucial for good health.....in fact, The 'USDA' clearly is recommending eating 5-9 servings of fruits and vegetables a day (per person), along with physical activity, to promote good health! 'Oh', & the CDC ( Center for Disease Control ) is saying 'Fruit' intake is 'CRITICAL' to good health. Its also proven that just 4 ounces of MonaVie daily is equivalent to 9-13 servings of FRUITS & VEGETABLES a day! YUP..You heard right! Compared with people who consume a diet with only small amounts of fruits and vegetables, those who eat more generous amounts as part of a healthful diet are likely to have REDUCED risk of chronic diseases. Theres no claims there! How ignorant can you be when all the facts are there in black & white. MonaVie also has the World leading Acai researcher on their board of directors along with 1 of the Worlds top 3 financial analysts & economists, as noted by the Wall Street Journal! CULT? PLEASE! I could go on & on but we'll keep this short & sweet because we simply don't have time for people like this nor the bitter broken person writing this article with no FACTS backing their accusations against this incredible nutritional wellness product & company. To those of you educated individuals with any ounce of intellect, you know that old saying, an opinion is like an _-_ _ _ _ (fill in the gaps)...everyone has one....just go out and do your research and get FACTS. Dont listen to ignorant people like this. The bottom line is EVERYONE SHOULD if all else, BE drinking this product if they value their health & their families in any way at all!! Simple as that...WHY? Go do your research...No one will need to convince you of anything....just make sure you are getting your information

          • Posted By: dsqard @ 08/04/2008 12:09:15 PM

            I did try the product out of respect for my brother's opinion and intellect. I tried it with an open mind as well since he was so excited about it. I even continued to use it after a couple of months because I understand that some things can take a while to take effect. It did absolutely NOTHING for me. Again, if it does something for you, use it. I did not make up my mind out of ignorance. Stop assuming that anyone who opposes your opinion is an idiot. I made an informed decision that the product was expensive FRUIT JUICE. If my brother wants to continue to use it and sell it, that is fine by me. Again, I am not trying to talk him out of doing what he is doing but I do know that he has been "sharing" MonaVie to literally hundreds of people over the last year and a half and makes only enough money to cover the cost of his juice for a month. I don't know if he is doing the "sharing" right or wrong but I know that he has been pretty agressive about "getting the word out" about MonaVie and he really does believe in the product. I would think that even Donald Trump would suggest going into another line of buisness if he was only making about $130 a month on a product that he had spent hundreds of hours promoting. By the way, if it walks like a duck, looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it is a DUCK. It is SELLING a product. That is why it is called multi-level MARKETING not multi-level SHARING.

              Hello, I just want to say that the benefits of MonaVie are not always felt and miraculous, but there are benefits non the less. Our bodies were created to heal themselves with the use of things found it nature. The acai berry is a supper food with many nutritional benefits and has a centergy with the other fruits in the blend. The acai berry is getting good press and many "stream line" companies are picking up on it. It is not available in Tropicana and V8 blends, however they are loaded with other ingredients that are not so healthy for you, just pick up the bottles and compare. MonaVie acai berries are process within 24 hours and do not lose any nutritional value. MonaVie is also giving back to the country where they are grown, please research The MORE project. The benefits of MonaVie are long lasting, not always fast acting. How can you go wrong with a product loaded with God given nutrients. I am blessed to be part of such a company

              • Posted By: dsqard @ 08/04/2008 1:20:42 PM

                Thank you for an unemotional reply to my comments. I did read up on the MonaVie company when I was drinking their product. I am not saying they are a terrible company I am just saying that I can buy nutritious food at my nearest supermarket. I can not believe that a berry that only grows in South America is the only healthy, rejuvinating fruit in the entire world. We have evolved as a species not eating these fruit and I believe that we will continue to live without them as well. I believe that the berries are healthful and nutritious but I also believe that I can get the same benefits from other fruit juices that are not so costly. Again, if it is such a different and wonderful product, why not sell it in the local grocery store? I do not believe in the "rhetoric" that the "story must be told" for people to understand how different and wonderful this product is. I think the only reason that it is not sold in local stores is because it would not sell for $40 a bottle next to other 100% fruit juices that sell for a lot less. If the juice is a wonder for you, then drink it. I am just trying to give another opinion that is based on my personal experience.

    A bios opinion of a reporter is not "all the data", obviously the reporter who wrote this story came in to the assignment with a negative theory of network marketing. I love how people are experts on a subject they no nothing about, based on a opinion of someone else. I would recommend that everybody do there due diligence and research Network marketing, Monavie and the Acai. What is wrong with a business model that spreads the wealth and gives opportunity to everybody. Compare that to Pepsi or Mcdonalds. Read the New York Times #1 seller The Pericone Promise, research the individuals who take Monavie. Sumner Redstone, Bill Clinton, Jonathan Papelbon, Jeff Bodine and see what they are saying. Do you know that the Acai is considered to be the #1 Superfood on earth? Or that it has more Antioxidants than any other fruit or vegetable! That it has killed leukemia cells in lab test performed by the University of Florida. Before you make a judgement do your own research. God Bless!

    I personally drink Monavie, and so does my wife. I give it to my in-laws and my mom and dad as well. The truth is that I feel better when I'm drinking it regularly which by the way I have been since May of 2007. I haven't stopped and don't intend too. For me it's more about the drink than the money.

    • Posted By: Nascar @ 08/06/2008 1:24:40 PM

      I'll stick with buying my smoothies at Jumba Juice. Much cheaper they have an Acai berry smoothie with other fruits added. Just as healthy if you ask me. Better yet buy some berries and make smoothies with plain yogurt and get health benefits that way too. Much, much cheaper.

        hello im not going to get in to details but when my mother came from the hospital the doctor told me that she would only get worst and started giveing her the mona vie a few months later the doctor himself could not belive the she was still around and walking and talking thefore i belive in this juice dont listen to negative stories tryit for a few months if you dont see results stop drinking it but please give it a chance thank you god bless .

    I live next to a guy who sells this stuff right here in Utah. It's so frustrating because we can't have a conversaton without him trying to get me to buy it. So finally I caved in and bought two bottles. The taste is alright, but I didnt wake up in the morning with super human powers or anything spectacular, I woke up with diharrea. It's cleans you out that's for sure. Just go to a health store and buy their fruit juice and you'll save money and a trip to the toilet.

  • Posted By: deaners @ 08/06/2008 4:12:19 PM

    I work for a Natural and Organic Juice company and we spend millions of dollars every year reseaching new fruits and their health benefits. Everything on the ingredients of this product seem to be very good fruits that have mulitple health benefits. As for being Organic, most "Natural" fruits barely have traces of any harmful chemicals in them. It is more harmful to breath the air we live in than to drink a non-organic drink. The most important thing here is not to believe the company as to what they say, but research the ingredients yourself that are in the bottle and don't make assumptions based on the companies strategic architecture.

      This is an intelligent individual .....excellent opinion!

  • Posted By: catsmeow @ 08/06/2008 4:16:53 PM

    I have a friend that swears by the stuff. I tried it and got the runs. I am not saying it is BAD for you but I don't believe it is the "magic elixer" that cures anything that ails you. You can get all the health benefits you need by general healthy-eating and exercise. So, I guess it that sense, it IS a scam.

    Thanks Tony for trying the juice! I have worn glasses for 36 yrs and when I have switched prescriptions, received new glasses - have experienced headaches too. Depending upon your daily diet and exercise routines, you may not 'FEEL' anything from consuming the Mona Vie. It's not necessarily about 'feeling' anything, it's about consuming natural extreme nutrients that your body needs to maintain optimal health. Too many people are consuming 'fast foods', processed foods that are simply not supplying their bodies with proper nutrients. In the June 23, 2008 Newsweek article titled " Your Lifestyle, Your Genes, and Cancer", the article quotes in the first paragraph "If we grew thinner, exercised regularly, avoided diets rich in red meat (substituting poultry, fish or vegetable sources of protein) and ate diets rich in fruits and vegetables, and stopped using tobacco, we would prevent 70 percent of all cancers." So what Mona Vie is offering is a cheaper better faster solution ($2-4 a day) for people who are NOT consuming adequate nutrients. Food is medicine. There is no one single prescription drug that has ever cured a disease. Thanks for the article, it just goes to show you that people who care about their health (over a million) are being rewarded - financially and by improving the health & lives of others. www.mymonavie.com/angelab - A Silver Executive Mona Vie Representative who believes in healthy lifestyle.

    SAMBAZON acai is organic, Monavie can't claim that and if they did it wouldn't be true.

    • Posted By: Drinking&SharingTheJuiceForLife @ 08/06/2008 4:09:11 PM

      Are you kidding me Goody2 ?? Are you for real??? Did you know MonaVie has the WORLD LEADING 'ACAI' RESEARCHER on their board of directors, Dr Alex Schauss??? HELLO-do your research first ...

  • Posted By: the superjuice source @ 08/06/2008 4:08:34 PM

    If you do the research, Monavie will tell you that acai makes up about 60 percent of the blend. The other 18 fruits have been selected due to the synergistic effect they create when combined, giving a lot more nutrition than one form of antioxidant alone.

    The company has been wonderful. They operate with the highest quality controls, with a patented process of preserving the nutrients in the juice no one else has. Monavie is also very clear that we can't make excessive health claims, although they have recently said that we can speak about several cancer studies that have been published with Monavie, as Monavie in a double blind study killed cancer cells in a laboratory setting. These are scientific studies not the words of unscrupulous snake oil salesmen.

    Day after day I see what Monavie is doing to people's lives, both in terms of health and wealth. Its made a tremendous difference to our lives personally. We're living with more vitality and financial freedom. We wouldn't have imagined 450 dollars a week in extra residual income could be so helpful, but it is.

    Not to mention how happy it makes us to see other people do well with this. Its so joyous to see other people do well and get excited as their health improves and so does their financial outlook.

    If you want to know more, go to mymonavie.com/thesuperjuicesource or email us at thesuperjuicesource@yahoo.com

    Bottom line, there's a lot of things you can do to help your health naturally, and eating an apple a day is one of them. Monavie simply takes proven principles and puts it in a bottle for you to pour.

    Whomever pours the most juice wins in our business, both health and wealth wise.

    I thought this article was of some scientific use... but ver little "Is Acai good for you or just hype?" Tell us... this is far too much of a comercial for Mona Vie and nothing of value about Acai. There are other people selling Acai in various forms including better quality than Mona Vie but there is no substance to this article.
    Is Acai good for human beings ? Is it good for lab rats ? Tell us.

Didnt your company ONCE have a beginning too?? DUH...Seems to me like too many individuals promoting other products are extremely frustrated with MonaVies growth. Just let it go and be professional and stop bashing what already is, and will be a very strong powerful company. theres room for them all in this World. Why is everyone so bitter??? SCARED perhaps??

    Since drinking MonaVie my family's health conditions and well being has improved DRAMATICALLY. Some conditions have disappeared completely. We have put away the pills and medication in lieu of incredible nutrition. We feel better, look better, and have a better quality of life thanks to MonaVie. We can't put a price tag on that. We don't care what naysayers want to say about MonaVie, it works for our family and the families of lots of our friends. And that's enough for us. As for this business of a scam, that's ridiculous. Thousands of people are being paid fairly to just SHARE the gift of health and wealth. The company has never done nothing wrong to misrepresent anything. The results from the product sells itself. There's nothing is the product that is bad or a drug. There's nothing in the compensation plan that is wrong, illegal, or strange. Quite the contrary. Everything works in favor of helping people be successful. That's not the definition of a scam.

    Wold sure like to know, since you state it as a fact, what company did Dallin Lasen cause to fail and what was the juice product name that has been removed from sales?

    Mona-Vie is a BLEND of juice that the ACAI berry is its CROWN JEWEL....what information did you give about the benefits of this incredible little berry? The ACAI has too little pulp and skin to make a juice.....it is either blended with other fruits, as Mona-Vie is or water, which makes it a diluted product of water with some ACAI pulp mixed in.
