Readers Respond (June 22, 2007): Letter of the Week
From Anonymous (June 20, 2007)
Thank you for this website! I was duped into trying Juice Plus by an annoying cousin about 8 years ago. She has infected our church, family, and even more recently a great organization called Relay for Life. She is constantly holding "health fairs" in my home town.
My aunt recently died of colon cancer. My cousin had her on Juice Plus as "the cure". It sickens me to fill people with false hope and to seperate them from hard-earned money. Worse, I am horrified that this company is encouraging people (and their children) NOT to eat a healthy diet of fruits and vegetables.
Over the years, I sank over $500 into this for myself and my children. The irony of this is that I used to be a farmer of fruits and vegetables. I started doing research, and found Dr. Barrett and "Quack Watch". Then I noticed that the Juice Plus-Nazi's are doing their best to smear him--or anyone that will get in the way of scamming unholy profits from honest people.
I would love to hear any stories about how to best counter this tide of misinformation. I am now doing my best of "word of mouth", but I would like to hear other's ideas for how to rid our families and churches of this desease.
Again, thank you for the site. It is good to know that I am not the only one who is fed up with this bunk.
