I had recently injured my back and as a result had been having to take Vicoden and Flexiril for the pain I had been taking it for 2 weeks with not much of a result. A good friend recomendded I try MonaVie for a couple of days. With in 3 days I was pain free and my back was almost completely better, by the fifth day I was completely heeled and had energy levels I had not had for years. I did some research on the MonaVie drink and found out that that it contained 19 different fruits with the Acai (ah-sigh-EE) berry as its primary ingredient. It turns out that the Acai berry is the most potent antioxident of all known and tested vegtables and fruits. Not only that it is a natural anti-inflamatory, a natural metabolic fuel, high in Omega 6 and Omega 9 essential fatty acids (good for naturally reducing bad cholesterol) has as much protein as an egg, contains 16 essential amino acids, and to top it off it is completly organic. Apparently, this secret was really no secret, it has been featured on Oprah some time ago calling it the number 1 superfood for health. All I know is that it tastes great, and makes me feel awesome.

A friend turned me on to this a few weeks ago. She thought it would help my arthritis. I was a bit skeptical at first, that a nutritional beverage could make my arthritis go away. Well I did as she said; I drank 2 ounces in the morning and 2 ouces in the evening. What I noticed at first was that I seemed to have a bit more energy, Nothing crazy, just a slight pep in my step. I at first discounted this, until I skipped a day and noticed immediatly that I had a lack of energy, or at least my new found energy. Something else happened. About a week later i was in the kitchen baking up some cupcakes for my grand daughter, when I noticed that my hands were not hurting after a few minutes whipping up the toppings for my cupcakes. In fact my hands (where my arthritis is worst) didn't hurt at all. Being the skeptic I didn't want to believe my friend when she said it was the MonaVie that was doing it. Something about the Acai berry, Glucosamine, and esterfied fats in the juice. She went into a long schpeal about it. I told her I would check with my doctor to see what he thought about it.

My doctor told me that it not only was possible but highly probable. He explained to me about how the free radicals create inflamation as a part of their process in destroying cells. It was actually a bit scary what he told me about free radicals. Things like premature aging, Parkinsons disease, arthritis...all things attributed to unchecked free radicals. He then explained how Anti-oxidents work to combat free radicals. Quite interesting if you are interested in that sort of stuff. The point was that he had pretty much confirmed what my friend had told me about as my body returns to nutritional balance.

Some people say the drink is too expensive....I say add up the cost of all the fruits and vegtables that you actually do eat, the ones you throw away, and then add in what you are supposed to eat. Next take the cost of any medications you take for inflamatory problems. Lastly take the price of the sleeping pills you are probably taking as a result of your chronic pain. I'think you'll find that the Monavie is quite a bargain in comparison.

Did I forget to mention, I don't need a sleeping pill any more! I sleep great. I actually started playing golf again too, it has been 13 years since my husbband and I could play. Now that he sees what it has done for me, he is consuming it too.

This truly is a great product and one I recomend to all my frieds.

The drink is great. I have been drinking this now for about 3 months. When a friend gave me a bottle I was a bit skeptical about any beverage, pill or other supplement. I've tried the herba-life, the atkins, the Iso-Genix and nothing really did anything worth writing home about for me. Plus I hate to take a pill. I drank the Monavie and I noticed on the first shot of the stuff a sense of energy that I have not had since I was in my 20's. It was wierd, I didn't have a caffine buzz, or that feeling you get after slamming down a couple of red-bulls. I just had energy and I didn't crash like you do after a venti drink at Starbucks. After a week of drinking the MonaVie (active) I just seemed to feel better all the time, wasn't as angry or emo as I usually can get. now that I have been drinking it for 3 months, you'll never take my bottle away. I get about 6 hours of restful sleep now, waking up fully energized and ready to go. I used to have to have 2 glasses of wine just to get to sleep. My knees don't hurt anymore (blew out my knee playing high school football, and have had aches in my knees ever since). Being skeptical, I wanted to know why and how this was possible. so I went to my doctor with a bottle and he told me all about the Monavie or at least what was in it. Quite suprising is that it is a bunch of different fruits and that's all. However it is the particular fruits that are important. the number one fruit in it is Acai. a brazillian berry from the Amazon that is the main secret weapon. It is an anti-inflamatory, it is humongous antioxident, it is high in abaout evey good phytonutrient, amino acid, and omega's. My doctor told me that just one ounce of the stuff was 100% of my daily USRDA recommended allowance for fruits and vegtables. What he told me was pretty interesting. He told me that what was happening was my body was returning to nutritional balance. As a result I was in much better health. Interestingly enough he asked to do a blood test to check my cholesterol levels, he had heard that the Acai was good for cholesterol but had never verified it himself. We had just done this test 6 months ago. When the results came back my LDL levels had dropped 30 points and my HDL levels had increased. We were both pleasently pleased by that. So I know the monavie juice WORKS!. I took a look at the company too, looks like they have a good cause too. they are doing something about deforestation and reaching out to children by setting up schools, small houses and feeding people.

It is not often that you find something that tastes good and is good for youat the same time. This turned out to be really good for me as I never have been one who likes taking pills. This has a kind of rasberry dipped in chocholate flavor (yummy). For me the drink seems to give me an even flow of energy all day with no afternoon crashes. I just take a shot in the morning and one before I go to bed. They have two versions a regular one and one named Active. I like the active better, it has glucosamine added to it, for your joints. The nice thing is that the Active tastes no different than the regular. You know how sometimes you get a boost added to your smoothie at a jamba juice, the drink has a grainy texture to it.
