Journal of the American College of Cardiology
I have some exciting news about the most recent addition to the Juice Plus whole food nutritional
support program! For quite some time, the benefits of the original fruits and vegetables have been
studied and documented as highly effective in promoting health.
Juice Plus+ Vineyard Blend provides the nutritional essence of 8 different varieties of berries
and grapes in convenient capsule form. Vineyard Blend contains juice powders from highest quality
blueberries, blackberries, red and black currents, bilberries, raspberries, elderberries and concord
grapes. These foods have been shown to provide some of nature’s most powerful antioxidants,
anthocyanins and polyphenols.
In addition to providing many general nutritional benefits, Juice Plus+ Vineyard Blend has been
specially formulated with cardiovascular (heart and circulatory) health in mind. The Vineyard
Blend also contains a proprietary mixture of other natural powders and extracts that are derived
from green tea, ginger root, grape skin, grape seed, and bilberry leaves and include arginine, Lcarnitine, coenzyme Q10, and vitamins C and E. All Juice Plus+ products
provide added whole food based nutrition not usually found in sufficient
quantity in the average North American diet.
And the best part….there is already a very significant proven benefit to your
cardiovascular system: helping to keep arteries open and flowing!!! A
wonderful study, published in May 2003, research, detailed below, revealed
the vast improvement in blood flow capacity AND the sustained ability to
maintain normal dilation of blood vessels as needed by the body, in times of
stress. I thought you would be glad to see yet another solid piece of peerreviewed research that proves the efficacy of these fruit and vegetables AND
berry capsules.
ON May 21 the JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF CARDIOLOGY (JACC) published the long awaited results of the
study completed last year at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
Study Objectives
Our objective was to determine if long-term daily administration of phytonutrient supplements can prevent the immediate adverse
impact of a high-fat meal and increase the production of nitric oxide.
Background
Ingestion of a high-fat meal impairs flow-mediated vasodilation of the brachial artery for at least 4 h; however, co-ingestion of vitamin
antioxidants or a green salad has been shown to prevent this effect.
The results were wonderful! The Juice Plus alone (Fruits and Vegetables) reduces the blood flow
restriction due to the stress of the dietary fat by 63%. When the berries were added, the blood flow
remained virtually normal at 98.5%! Said another way, the arteries keep pumping blood normally at
a time when someone not taking the JP and Vineyard blend, might incur a 40 to 50% reduction in
their arterial blood flow
Technically these were the result: Four weeks of the JP-V combination blunted the detrimental effect of the high-fat meal (47.5 ± 23.4% at baseline vs. -1.7 ± 9.7% at four weeks [p < 0.05]). Four weeks of JP alone had a similar beneficial effect (-45.1

± 19.7% at baseline vs. -16.6 ± 10.3% at four weeks [p < 0.05]), whereas there was no substantial effect of the placebo. In the
subjects treated with supplements, concentrations of serum nitrate/nitrite increased from 78 ± 39 to 114 ± 62 µm/l (p < 0.02
JP+ and Vineyard not only help prevent against arterial constriction, but they help restore the
health and integrity of the endothelial inner lining of your blood vessels. Your endothelium needs
to be flexible and quickly responsive to changes in body position, changes in blood pressure and
resist the effects of diet and exercise. However, over time with exposure to free radical damage,
bad food, pollution, smoke etc. it becomes like an old Teflon pan – stiff, inflexible, corroded,
unhealthy and vulnerable to plaque deposits which can become inflamed and can burst leading to
heart attack.
The research and anecdotal results really are impressive. If you aren’t already, please consider
adding all 3 of the whole food produce concentrates. For only $68.50 per month, the vast number
of proven disease preventing benefits will be yours. The Vineyard blend is available in capsule or
Soft Chewable form.
AND don’t forget the powerful anti-illness (including many forms of cancer) benefits that research
shows berries and grapes provide. They are the source of powerful antioxidants and other
phytonutrients that thwart cancer and other degenerative diseases
Eat All the colors of the rainbow every day, in raw, organic, vineripened produce to help reduce your risk of all forms of
cardiovascular illnesses. Add the latest product from Juice Plus to
get all the purples, deep blues, and dark reds so that your blood
stream is full of all the anthocyanins and polyphenols! ADD THE
BERRIES FOR ONLY 89 cents per day, or $26.75 per month.
This is a good time
to
order Juice Plus+ berries to complete the color circle of antioxidants.

Please let me know if you would like to add the Berries. They are a wonderful, life saving choice! There are
many organs that depend on completely free-flowing arteries and veins. I feel really strongly that adding the
Juice Plus Vineyard to the Fruit and Vegetable Blends can make a great deal of
difference!
