Juice Plus+ funds most but not all clinical research conducted on its products. In fact, the company has invested more than $10 million to ensure that independent, primary research on Juice Plus+ is conducted by leading researchers in their fields at highly respected hospitals and universities around the world.

Unlike much clinical research on nutritional products, these clinical studies are conducted on the Juice Plus+ product itself and not on individual components and ingredients. Juice Plus+ insists that any and all clinical research conducted on its products conform to the very highest research standards, including the Good Clinical Practice Standards established by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration; and that all studies are performed in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki under the oversight of a Human Ethics Committee or Institutional Review Board.

No. Funding for most all published research in the United States and around the world comes from sponsored projects such as these. In fact, most universities maintain offices dedicated to working with sponsors like Juice Plus+ to ensure that funds are donated transparently and that research results are produced without company bias.

Yes. Some clinical research on Juice Plus+ is funded by outside sources such as federal grants. For example, there is a study involving Juice Plus+ currently underway by a research team affiliated with Wake Forest University and other institutions. That research is funded by a grant from the National Cancer Institute of the U.S. National Institutes of Health.

Yes. Like many companies, Juice Plus+ must provide funding for most clinical research on its products. This helps ensure that top-quality clinical trials are conducted by leading researchers in their fields at highly respected institutions. The company carefully follows established protocols within the academic community to ensure that reported findings are independent and unbiased.

Once investigations regarding Juice Plus+ are complete, independent academic and scientific peers at the scientific and professional journals review the results before they are published to ensure that the science is valid. Juice Plus+ has no influence over what data gets published and where it gets published; this is specifically stipulated in all of our sponsorship agreements with the various universities or research hospitals that oversee these projects.
