Guest guest Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I am trying to decide between Juice Plus and Fruit-eze as a supplement to my daughter's diet to help her with regularity. I have seen them both recommended through this forum, but was wondering if you had to pick one, which would you pick and why? (My daughter was diagnosed with Celiac's disease a year ago May; we've been gluten free since then, but spent the previous three years struggling with what we thought was encopresis, and spent at least two and a half years on Miralax. Her diet is great (also avoiding dairy, eggs, sugar cane, beef), and being fully supplemented in other ways, although we still struggle to have regular bowel movements, probably due to functional mega-colon...)

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I have only used the Fruit _eze product. It worked very well for my daughter who is now 5, but she got tired of taking it. It is a thick Jelly like product, and after awhile, she did not want it any more. We switched to Psyllium husks, and that has also been working well for us. You will get lots of answers.... Good luck.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I have been using Fruiteze for my 2.5 year old for the past 3-4 months and it has been working very well for her. It gave her poop the right consistency and shape. You would see the results after a week of daily dosage. Although right now, we are having lil' trouble keeping her regular, it might be because of her decreased water intake. I am currently looking for other options. Good Luck!

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I can't comment on Fruit-eze as we've never taken it. Juice Plus+ chewables are a vegan product, made from a variety of 17 fruits and veggies. I am partial to Juice Plus+ for various reasons. Introduced to Juice Plus+ by our pediatrician 10 years ago, it has helped to resolve many of our health problems including irregularity, ear infections (my daughter at age 4), allergies, sinus infections, and bronchitis (the last three were my personal ailments for 12 long years, but I have been free of these ailments and no meds for the past 9 years). Our family took Juice Plus+ for 5 years before I decided to represent the products. I was hoping to go back to my corporate life of computer consultation after being a stay-at-home mom for 10 years, but because of the effects of healthy choices on our family, I decided to make a difference in the lives of others. I have been sharing Juice Plus+ and nutritional options to others for the past 5 years and I am very pleased to have helped to benefit the health of hundreds of people. That is my greatest reward.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 We picked Juice Plus because it's not a spread...it's a gummi and my ds took it like candy. EVERYONE enjoyed them...his friends would even ask for them when they came over. They worked, too.
