Because Food Matters
It is no secret that eating fruit is good for you and has plenty of health benefits – but what are they?
Eat Fruit
A diet involving regular amounts of fruit will provide your body with antioxidants to help prevent free radicals from attacking the body.
Eat More Fruit !
• For the largest part fruit consists of water just like the human body does;
• Fruit is 100% bad-cholesterol free;
• Fruit stimulates the memory;
• The idea that fruit is an expensive nutrition;
• The miraculous healing effects of fruit;
• Fibers;
• Fruit makes you feel better;
• Ethical reasons to eat fruit;
• Fruit is the most natural food;
• The human diet;
• Fruit juices - squeeze those fruits!
What Are Free Radicals ?
The following external factors also trigger the production of free radicals in the body:
• Pollution
• Sunlight
• Smoking
• Alcohol
This means we are exposed to more free radicals than ever before.
What Are Junk Foods ?
Any food that has poor nutritional value is considered unhealthy and may be called a junk food.
A food that is high in fat, sodium, and /or sugar is known as a junk food. Junk food is easy to carry, purchase and consume. Generally, a junk food is given a very attractive appearance by adding food additives and colors to enhance flavor, texture, appearance, and increasing long shelf life.
A junk food has little enzyme producing vitamins & minerals and contains high level of calories. When we eat these empty calorie foods, the body is required to produce its own enzymes to convert these empty calories into usable energy. This is not desired as these enzyme producing functions in our body should be reserved for the performance of vital metabolic reactions. Junk foods drain energy.
What Are Antioxidants ?
Fruit is a great source of antioxidants. Eating them regularly will stop free radicals attacking and mutating our cells.
How Much Fruit Neutralizes Free Radicals?
The fruit can be consumed in a number of ways – in smoothies, on its own as a snack, on pizza or dried on breakfast cereal. There is a very wide variety of fruit for you to chose from, so you needn’t eat the same fruit each day (in fact, it’s better for you if you eat a wider range of fruit as possible, as different fruits have different combinations of minerals and nutrients in them).
Below is a list of the health benefits of eating five portions of fruit or vegetables a day:
• Reduced risk of a stroke and other cardiovascular diseases
• Reduced risk of developing type 2 diabetes
• Reduced risk of developing certain cancers
• Reduced risk of developing coronary heart disease
• Reduced risk of developing kidney stones and osteoporosis
Eating fruit as part of your daily diet will make you feel better, look better, and be more active and healthy. Any fruit will do, dried, frozen, fresh or tinned. Why not eat fruit instead of chocolate or crisps as a snack, or enjoy it dried over your breakfast cereal? It’s easy to enjoy fruit as part of your diet, and much healthier too.
Other Health Benefits of Fruit
Fruit is 100% Cholesterol Free
Fruit Stimulates The Memory
The Healing Effects of Fruit
High In Natural Fibers
The food that contains these healthy (natural) fibers is.... right: fruit! (vegetables as well). The American Heart Association advises to consume 25 to 30 grams of fibers out of fresh fruits and/or vegetables. In practice this means: have five to nine portions of fresh fruits or vegetables a day.
Fruit is the Most Natural Food
A Human Diet
• A good start is to eat and drink more fresh fruits;
• it’s as simple as that. Before you know it you will feel much better;
• Don't forget to eat fruit on an empty stomach, not after other meals and;
• inform yourself about the substances that our 'modern' food contains.
What is Açaí?
What's So Great About Açaí?
• Omega fats (the good kind, unlike the saturated fats found in fast food)
• amino acids
• electrolytes
• antioxidants
• protein
• vitamins A, B1 and E
The people of the Amazon rainforest use açaí in many different dishes - from drinks and shakes to breakfasts and bars. Brazilians use açaí to flavor meat and fish entrees, too, topping dishes with a pulpy, curd-like substance made from the fruit.
Not only does açaí provide a delicious taste to complement food, it is known around the Amazon for amazing health benefits. Açaí is known to be used for treatment of digestive problems, skin irritation, sexual dysfunction, and even insomnia. The açaí berry is naturally low in sugar, too.
Only in recent years have people in North America discovered how açaí makes them feel energetic and healthy. Take a trip to your favorite smoothie place and you might find açaí as one of the add-in ingredients available to you. Not only are consumers finding the benefits of açaí to their interest, but researchers and the media are amazed by the power of this small berry. NBC's Today did a feature story on açaí in 2004, and more recently researchers at the University of Florida tested the attributes of açaí to discover it actually destroyed cultured leukemia cells!
Will açaí cure cancer? We can't say for certain. All we know is that açaí possesses some very strong health properties that may benefit people in the long run.

In 2003, I teamed up with my brother Randy and Henry Marsh, a four-time Olympian, to start a weight-loss company called Monarch Health Sciences. We raised nearly $2 million from angel investors, but we rapidly went through the money. I like to joke that since I'm short and fat, it didn't work. Our program required big lifestyle changes, which people generally don't make. We were close to going out of business. My wife and I had eight kids to raise. I took out a second mortgage, because we weren't taking any money out of the company.
Around that time, a friend told me about the açai berry. I did a search on Google and found all this research about it being packed with nutritional value. So we asked one of our scientists to do some research. We blended it with 19 other fruits. Four months later, in January 2005, we introduced MonaVie.
Our timing was great. A doctor, Nicholas Perricone, had come on The Oprah Winfrey Show and named the açai berry as one of the world's greatest superfoods. We found a few key people who believed in us, and they went out and started sharing MonaVie with others. We gave stock options to people who reached $500,000 in yearly sales by a certain date. Soon our product was spreading like wildfire.
It certainly didn't hurt that Sumner Redstone, the chairman of Viacom, got on the juice. A distributor in Florida knew Redstone's butler and got him to try the product. All of a sudden, we're in Fortune magazine. Boston Red Sox players J.D. Drew and Jonathan Papelbon started drinking the product, and we're an official team juice. This year, we had a MonaVie car racing in the Indy 500 to launch our energy drink. I was there shaking hands with Richard Petty and Mario Andretti.
We've enrolled over a million distributors. When we developed the company, we said, "Let's create a compensation plan where you don't have to be Superman to achieve success." The plans in the 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s forced people to constantly find people to sponsor. In our company, the average person who sponsors just two people can earn some money. They're not knocking door to door or having to stock up on thousands of dollars' worth of product. There are some people making an extra $1,000 a month, some making an extra $1,000 a year.
Because of our success, we've now got people from all over the world calling. This year, we started selling in eight other countries, and we'll be in 15 by the end of the year. About 85 percent of our sales are domestic, so we're just barely beginning our international growth. And we have some pretty productive folks. MonaVie's top earners make over $5 million a year. We started with eight levels of distributors, and people kept hitting the top. We've taken distributors to Hawaii and the Mediterranean to celebrate their successes. Now we have 18 levels.
My goal is not for MonaVie to be the best company in the world, but to be the best company for the world. We founded the MORE Project, which is helping to feed, clothe, and educate over 1,500 children and adults in the slums of Brazil. We want to give back. At our most recent meeting, we raised over $1.1 million from our distributors. But although I'm pleased with what we've accomplished, I'm not satisfied yet.
