Juice plus diet

...

Juice Plus is a brand of supplements made from the juice powder concentrates of over 30 different fruits, vegetables, and grains. The idea behind using Juice Plus for children with autism is to ensure they receive a variety of essential nutrients that might otherwise be lacking in their diet. Some parents and caregivers of persons with autism explore dietary interventions to help manage symptoms, and Juice Plus+ products are sometimes included in these efforts due to their potential nutritional benefits. There are various forms of presentations like capsules or chewables, complete shakes or nutritional bars incorporating fruits, vegetables and grains. Although Juice Plus might have some potential benefits, there is no specific scientific evidence proving that Juice Plus products can directly improve autism symptoms. Furthermore, these supplements can be expensive, and the finantial burden may not be justified without proven benefits.
