Discover MonaVie?
On Saturday, January 8, 2005, MonaVieTM Juice was introduced to the world as a potent fruit juice blend of 19 fruits. It's main ingredient is the legendary Acai Berry from the Amazon, named first on the world's top ten list of 'super foods' by Dr. Nicholas Perricone on the Oprah Winfrey show.
Some Acai Berry facts:
A protein profile similar to an egg.
Contains the leading source of anthocyanins--often reported as 30 times that of
the protective potential of red wine. One of the many attributes of anthocyanins is its anti-inflammatory qualities.
High in fiber.
More than sixteen phytonutrients and anti-oxidants.
Copious amount of trace minerals (Co, Cr, Cu, Mo...) and macrominerals (Ca, Fe).
Generous amount of vitamins including vitamin E.
Excellent source of plant sterols, particularly Beta-Sitosterol which is associated with cholesterol lowering capabilities.
Dr. Ralph Carson and his team of experts have been studying people's health for years. A simple conclusion they made was that the majority of people simply were not enjoying the health enhancing benefits found in some of nature's most wondrous fruits. They concluded that the proper intake of the right variety and balance of exotic fruits could help individuals gain important nutrients that are so illusive in today's polluted environment. Together they made the ultimate discovery - a discovery that they believe can significantly impact the landscape of personal wellness.
Only 17% of the population consumes the recommended two to three servings of a variety of fruits each day. By not getting our recommended intake of fruits, we are missing out on the health benefits of vitamins, antioxidants, phytonutrients, and fiber needed for optimal health and disease prevention. Hence, the development of MonaVieTM, the perfect blend of nineteen rare and lesser-consumed fruits from around the world. One serving of MonaVieTM each day contains a variety of the most nutritionally dense fruits available for families on the go and picky-eating children.
MonaVieTM is an exquisite health drink packed with the power of acai berries, destined to make a profound difference in the lives of countless peoples of the world. The formulators of MonaVieTM, driven by a passion for helping humanity and bringing abundance into the lives of many, have created the consummate blend of health-promoting fruits from the four corners of the earth.
Discover the taste and enjoy the feeling.

Thanks for your time!
Allow me to share this beautiful story with you, it’s about how a young man learned what's most important in life from the guy next door.
It had been some time since Jack had seen the old man. College, girls, career, and life itself got in the way.
In fact, Jack moved clear across the country in pursuit of his dreams. There, in the rush of his busy life, Jack had little time to think about the past and often no time to spend with his wife and son. He was working on his future, and nothing could stop him.
Over the phone, his mother told him, 'Mr. Belser died last night. The funeral is Wednesday.' Memories flashed through his mind like an old newsreel as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days.
'Jack, did you hear me?'
'Oh, sorry, Mom. Yes, I heard you. It's been so long since I thought of him. I'm sorry, but I honestly thought he died years ago,' Jack said.
'Well, he didn't forget you. Every time I saw him he'd ask how you were doing.. He'd reminisce about the many days you spent over 'his side of the fence' as he put it,' Mom told him.
'I loved that old house he lived in,' Jack said.
'You know, Jack, after your father died, Mr. Belser stepped in to make sure you had a man's influence in your life,' she said
'He's the one who taught me carpentry,' he said. 'I wouldn't be in this business if it weren't for him. He spent a lot of time teaching me things he thought were important...Mom, I'll be there for the funeral,' Jack said.
As busy as he was, he kept his word. Jack caught the next flight to his hometown. Mr. Belser's funeral was small and uneventful. He had no children of his own, and most of his relatives had passed away.
The night before he had to return home, Jack and his Mom stopped by to see the old house next door one more time.
Standing in the doorway, Jack paused for a moment. It was like crossing over into another dimension, a leap through space and time The house was exactly as he remembered. Every step held memories. Every picture, every piece of furniture....Jack stopped suddenly.
'What's wrong, Jack?' his Mom asked.
'The box is gone,' he said
'What box?' Mom asked.
'There was a small gold box that he kept locked on top of his desk. I must have asked him a thousand times what was inside. All he'd ever tell me was 'the thing I value most,'' Jack said.
It was gone. Everything about the house was exactly how Jack remembered it, except for the box. He figured someone from the Belser family had taken it.
'Now I'll never know what was so valuable to him,' Jack said. 'I better get some sleep. I have an early flight home, Mom.'
It had been about two weeks since Mr. Belser died Returning home from work one day Jack discovered a note in his mailbox. 'Signature required on a package. No one at home. Please stop by the main post office within the next three days,' the note read.
Early the next day Jack retrieved the package. The small box was old and looked like it had been mailed a hundred years ago. The handwriting was difficult to read, but the return address caught his attention. 'Mr. Harold Belser' it read. Jack took the box out to his car and ripped open the package. There inside was the gold box and an envelope. Jack's hands shook as he read the note inside.
'Upon my death, please forward this box and its contents to Jack Bennett. It's the thing I valued most in my life.' A small key was taped to the letter. His heart racing, as tears filling his eyes, Jack carefully unlocked the box. There inside he found a beautiful gold pocket watch.
Running his fingers slowly over the finely etched casing, he unlatched the cover. Inside he found these words engraved:
'Jack, Thanks for your time! -Harold Belser.'
'The thing he valued most was...my time'
Jack held the watch for a few minutes, then called his office and cleared his appointments for the next two days.
'Why?'
Janet, his assistant asked.
'I need some time to spend with my son,' he said.
'Oh, by the way, Janet, thanks for your time!'
'Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away,'
To everyone that read this far… Thanks for your time!

FAQ about MonaVie
Thansk for stopping by, I know you won't be dissapointed. I'm so excited about the MonaVie juice and I want to make sure you know all about it. Below I listed the most frequently asked questions and I hope yours will be answered. Not only will you find out about the product but I also thaught you should know about the science behind the MonaVie product.
Enjoy your reading and if you don't find the answer to your questions, please, don't hesitate to contact me and it will be my pleasure to inform you.
The Product
What is MonaVie?
MonaVie is a delicious and energizing blend of the Brazilian açai berry—one of nature’s top super-foods—and 18 other nutrient-dense fruits. Developed with the philosophy Balance-Variety-Moderation, MonaVie delivers the phytonutrients and antioxidants you need to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle. MonaVie’s Active formula also contains the added benefits of esterified fatty acids and glucosamine to help maintain healthy joints.
What fruits are contained in MonaVie products?
In addition to the açai berry, MonaVie products contain white grape, pear, acerola, pear puree, aronia, purple grape, cranberry, passion fruit, banana, apricot, prune, kiwi, blueberry, bilberry, camu camu, wolfberry, pomegranate, and lychee fruit.
What is acai?
Acai is a small, round, dark-purple berry with amazing nutritional properties. Its appearance is similar to that of a grape, but it has a smaller amount of pulp and a single large seed. Scientific experts have referred to the acai berry as the most nutritious and powerful food in the world.
Why does the acai berry seem to get more attention than the other healthful fruits in MonaVie?
While all the fruits contained in MonaVie have unique properties that benefit your body, the acai berry has become the “headliner” fruit because it is packed with nutritional value—proteins, healthy fats, fiber, vitamins, minerals, and trace minerals. It also has a low glycemic index. So complete is this berry that the Brazilian people living along the Amazon can survive on it as their sole source of food and demonstrate amazing vitality and energy. More important than this, however, is the impressive amount of phytonutrients and powerful antioxidants that MonaVie is able to capture from the acai berry through its proprietary processing.
Does acai have a high ORAC score?
Yes, with an ORAC score of 1,027 per gram, the acai used in MonaVie boasts the highest ORAC score against the superoxide free radical of any fruit or vegetable tested to date. The superoxide free radical has been implicated in the age-related decline of joint function. The acai fruit is the star among other well-known antioxidants, such as blueberries, grapes, red wine, green tea, cranberries, blackberries, and pomegranates. By comparison, acai has more than 10 times the antioxidant power of cranberries.
Where does acai grow?
The acai berry grows in clusters on the acai palm, a genus of 25–30 species of palms native to tropical Central and South America. These tall, slender, and attractive palms can grow 15–30 meters tall, with leaves up to 3 meters long. The prime commercial source of acai comes from the area where several rivers converge within the Amazon estuary, emptying along the northeastern corner of Brazil into the Atlantic Ocean between the states of Para and Amapa. The people of Brazil refer to acai as the “Milk of the Amazon.”
Does harvesting the acai berry destroy the Amazon rainforest?
No. In fact, MonaVie is helping to preserve the Amazon rainforest by harvesting the acai berry. Each week, poachers illegally chop down 5,000–10,000 palm trees to obtain and sell a 12-inch section of the palm known as the “palmito.” As a result, the entire tree dies. On the other hand, by harvesting the acai berry, the palm tree continues to thrive and the natives have an incentive to preserve the acai-bearing palm tree.
Is MonaVie’s acai certified organic?
Yes. The acai used by MonaVie is certified organic through The Institute for Marketecology (IMO). IMO is one of the first and most renowned international agencies for inspection, certification, and quality assurance of eco-friendly products. IMO’s worldwide activities are accredited by the Swiss Accreditation Service (SAS), according to EN 45011 (ISO 65), which is the international standard for organic certification.
Are all the fruits in MonaVie products certified organic?
Açai, acerola, camu camu, and bilberry are certified organic. However, it is not possible to have all the fruits in MonaVie products be certified organic; for example, MonaVie’s wolfberry is harvested in China, and the Chinese government does not have an organic certification process.
How much acai is contained in MonaVie products?
Because MonaVie product formulas are proprietary, the exact amount of acai or the other fruits contained in our blend is not disclosed.
Does MonaVie use flash pasteurization?
Yes. With flash pasteurization, the product is heated for approximately 15–30 seconds and then immediately cooled. By only briefly subjecting the product to high temperatures, most—if not all—taste and color changes are avoided. Flash pasteurization is preferred to other methods because it kills microbes without destroying beneficial phytonutrients.
Where are MonaVie products manufactured?
To ensure the highest level of quality, MonaVie blends and produces MonaVie products at its manufacturing facility in Salt Lake City, Utah (not far from the corporate office).
What is the shelf life of the MonaVie Original and Active Juices and MonaVie Gel?
If unopened, both the MonaVie Juices and MonaVie Gel have a shelf life of one year. If the MonaVie Juice has been opened, then the shelf life is approximately 30-60 days, as long as the opened bottle is refrigerated. The MonaVie Gel should be consumed in its entirety as soon as it is opened.
Are MonaVie products safe?
Yes, MonaVie products are safe and contain only well-tolerated foods. MonaVie contains fruit juices and purees naturally found in the food supply that have been consumed by various cultures for hundreds of years. However, if you have any health concerns, you should consult a physician before starting any new product or program.
Are MonaVie products FDA approved?
There is no official approval process or certificate issued by the FDA to approve the sale of any food or juice product. The Food and Drug Administration has established stringent regulations, called Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) to ensure the safety and manufacturing of foods sold in the United States. MonaVie is manufactured in a GMP-compliant facility. The ingredients contained in MonaVie products are generally recognized as safe (GRAS), and obtaining prior approval from the FDA is not required.
Do MonaVie products treat, cure, or prevent disease?
Eating a diet rich in a variety of fruits and vegetables is known to aid in the prevention of disease and in living a long, active, and healthy life. It is not the purpose of a natural product like MonaVie to treat, cure, or prevent disease; the FDA only approves drugs to offer these benefits. MonaVie products are made with a specific selection of powerful super-fruits and other natural compounds, such as glucosamine and esterified fatty acids. The fruits and compounds in MonaVie have been shown in some studies to help support the body’s ability to protect itself from various ailments.
The Science
What does ORAC mean?
An acronym for oxygen radical absorption capacity, ORAC is a way to measure the antioxidant capacity of a food. Foods with high ORAC values are desirable for their ability to neutralize free radicals, thus inhibiting the ability of the free radical to cause cell damage. The ORAC measurement was developed by a scientist at the National Institute of Aging in 1992 and has proven to be a valuable tool in quantifying health benefits associated with consuming fruits, vegetables, and other antioxidant-containing foods and supplements.
How many servings of fruits and vegetables does the U.S. National Research Council recommend we eat daily?
The U.S. National Research Council recommends that you consume at least five servings of fruits and vegetables per day to maintain a proper supply of food derived antioxidants for your body. Research indicates that only five percent of the U.S. population consumes five servings of fruits and vegetables per day.
What are phytonutrients?
Phytonutrients are naturally occurring compounds that contribute to the flavor, color, and disease-resistance of plants (i.e., fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes). Phytonutrients are powerful antioxidants, but their value extends much beyond free radical protection. Maximum health benefits are derived from consuming a variety of phytonutrients with a full spectrum of colors and pigments, such as those found in MonaVie products.
What are antioxidants?
Antioxidants are “agents” that inhibit harmful compounds known as free radicals. Free radicals cause damage to your cells through the process of oxidation. By donating an electron to unstable free radicals, antioxidants neutralize their harmful effects. Obtaining a variety of antioxidants through diet or supplementation is essential to maintaining your good health.
What are polyphenols?
Polyphenols are a class of powerful antioxidants that play an important role in preventing cardiovascular diseases (e.g., heart disease, heart failure, and stroke) and that have been shown to reduce harmful LDL cholesterol. Polyphenols are also thought to be responsible for the French Paradox: the French have a diet relatively high in fat, yet have a decreased incidence of heart disease. This is attributed to the amount of polyphenols present in the grapes used to make French wines. MonaVie products contain a powerful variety of polyphenols, including anthocyanins. It is estimated that MonaVie products have 20–30 times the amount of anthocyanins found in red wine.
What are free radicals?
Free radicals are atoms with at least one unpaired electron. In excess, free radicals produce harmful oxidation that can damage cell membranes. Free radicals are analogous to cattle let loose on a field of planted crops. Uncontrolled, the cattle would destroy the crops. Ranch hands are hired to make sure the cattle stay in place and graze. Antioxidants act much the same way. As the ranch hands for our bodies, antioxidants prevent free radicals from potentially damaging millions of healthy, functioning cells.
What is oxidative stress?
Oxidative stress occurs in your body when there are not enough antioxidants to counter the effects of damaging free radicals. Free radicals cause damage to all cellular components, including proteins, lipids, and DNA—the blueprint to cell proliferation. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the aging process and numerous health-related issues.
What causes excess free radicals?
Tobacco smoke, alcohol, pollution, insecticides, radiation, chemicals in the home or at work, and excessive amounts of sunlight are all prolific contributors to the formation of free radicals. Other causes include a high-fat diet, stress, insufficient sleep, and strenuous exercise.
How well does freeze-dried acai scavenge other free radicals such as peroxynitrite (NORAC), hydroxyl (HORAC), and superoxide anion (SORAC)?
The MonaVie Juice blend is a very powerful antioxidant against these additional free radicals; in fact, the SORAC assay score of 1,614 unit/g represents the highest value ever reported for superoxide scavenging activity in vitro of any food.
What is glucosamine hydrochloride?
Glucosamine hydrochloride is a natural compound found in the body that is used to help make and form cartilage. Glucosamine has also been shown to help lubricate, cushion, protect, and rebuild joints.
Is one form of glucosamine more effective than another?
There are three types of glucosamine: glucosamine hydrochloride (HCl), N-acetyl glucosamine, and glucosamine sulfate. Both glucosamine HCl and glucosamine sulfate are rapidly converted into “free” glucosamine in the stomach. So, from a medicinal standpoint, they are equally effective. However, glucosamine HCl is 79 percent glucosamine, while glucosamine sulfate is only between 47 and 52 percent glucosamine. We formulated MonaVie Active Juice with glucosamine HCl because this form of glucosamine contains the highest level of free glucosamine.
What are esterified fatty acids?
Esterified fatty acids are thought to reduce pain-like symptoms and rapidly promote joint health, improving flexibility and mobility. Esterification is the general name for a chemical reaction in which two chemicals (typically an alcohol and an acid) form an ester as the reaction product.
How much potassium is in MonaVie Original and MonaVie Active?
For customers concerned about potassium levels for reasons relating to dialysis, please consult a physician before taking MonaVie products. The potassium level in MonaVie Original and MonaVie Active is approximately 56 mg/oz. MonaVie Original and MonaVie Active contain no potassium additives, grapefruit, or cantaloupe.
Is there any vitamin K in MonaVie Original or MonaVie Active?
For customers concerned about vitamin K levels because of blood thinning medication, please consult a physician before taking any MonaVie products. The vitamin K level in MonaVie Original and MonaVie Active is approximately 12.4 µg/oz.
Why do MonaVie products contain preservatives?
Preservatives help maintain a product’s freshness. Sodium benzoate, an organic chemical preservative, can prevent the growth of almost all microorganisms (e.g., yeast, bacteria, and fungi) and occurs naturally in some fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices, nuts, wines, and teas.
Potassium sorbate is a potassium salt version of sorbic acid, a polyunsaturated fat used to inhibit mold growth. Sorbic acid has been repeatedly tested for safety and efficacy, and today stands as one of the most thoroughly tested food additives in history.
MonaVie Juices contain the preservative sodium benzoate and the antioxidant vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Is it true that sodium benzoate and vitamin C can react to form benzene?
In the presence of trace amounts of certain metals, which act as catalysts, vitamin C can produce free radicals that convert benzoate into benzene. The FDA and World Health Organization have set a standard for benzene levels in water and that level is 5 parts per billion. MonaVie tests its MonaVie Juices for benzene, and we are always well below the FDA’s and World Health Organization’s acceptable levels for benzene.
Do any of MonaVie's products contain MSG?
No.
Is MonaVie Active Juice safe for children and pregnant or nursing women?
The MonaVie Active formula is extremely safe; however, MonaVie Active Juice contains glucosamine hydrochloride and esterified fatty acids, which have not been tested in these types of individuals. It is MonaVie’s recommendation that children under the age of 12, pregnant women, and women who are nursing should not consume MonaVie Active Juice. If further information is required, please consult with your physician.
Are MonaVie products gluten-free?
Yes.
If someone is allergic to shellfish can they consume glucosamine hydrochloride?
Shellfish are a known allergen and glucosamine is derived from shrimp shells. However, people who are allergic to shellfish are actually allergic to the protein troponin, which is found in the muscle (protein) of shrimp. Analyses do not find any protein in the glucosamine hydrochloride used in MonaVie Active Juice. Glucosamine hydrochloride (GHCl), the form of glucosamine used in MonaVie Active Juice, is more than 99 percent pure. Because shellfish is a known allergen, please consult with a physician before taking MonaVie Active Juice.
Why are there natural flavors in MonaVie products?
MonaVie uses natural flavors in its products because a juice concentrate, which contains only the juice from a fruit, does not give you the entire flavor of the fruit. MonaVie’s natural flavors make our products more palatable and balanced by staying true to the natural flavor of the entire fruit. The natural flavor used in MonaVie Original and Active Juices and in MonaVie Gel is a mixed berry natural flavor.
I want to tell the whole world about this great product and I aslo want the whole world to know about the science behind the MonaVie juice.

The acai fruit is the star among other well-known antioxidants, such as blueberries, grapes, red wine, green tea, cranberries, blackberries, and pomegranates. By comparison, acai has more than 10 times the antioxidant power of cranberries.
Where does acai grow?
The acai berry grows in clusters on the acai palm, a genus of 25–30 species of palms native to tropical Central and South America. These tall, slender, and attractive palms can grow 15–30 meters tall, with leaves up to 3 meters long. The prime commercial source of acai comes from the area where several rivers converge within the Amazon estuary, emptying along the northeastern corner of Brazil into the Atlantic Ocean between the states of Para and Amapa. The people of Brazil refer to acai as the “Milk of the Amazon.”
Does harvesting the acai berry destroy the Amazon rainforest?
No. In fact, MonaVie is helping to preserve the Amazon rainforest by harvesting the acai berry. Each week, poachers illegally chop down 5,000–10,000 palm trees to obtain and sell a 12-inch section of the palm known as the “palmito.” As a result, the entire tree dies. On the other hand, by harvesting the acai berry, the palm tree continues to thrive and the natives have an incentive to preserve the acai-bearing palm tree.
Is MonaVie’s acai certified organic?
Yes. The acai used by MonaVie is certified organic through The Institute for Marketecology (IMO). IMO is one of the first and most renowned international agencies for inspection, certification, and quality assurance of eco-friendly products. IMO’s worldwide activities are accredited by the Swiss Accreditation Service (SAS), according to EN 45011 (ISO 65), which is the international standard for organic certification.
Are all the fruits in MonaVie products certified organic?
Açai, acerola, camu camu, and bilberry are certified organic. However, it is not possible to have all the fruits in MonaVie products be certified organic; for example, MonaVie’s wolfberry is harvested in China, and the Chinese government does not have an organic certification process.
How much acai is contained in MonaVie products?
Because MonaVie product formulas are proprietary, the exact amount of acai or the other fruits contained in our blend is not disclosed.
Does MonaVie use flash pasteurization?
Yes. With flash pasteurization, the product is heated for approximately 15–30 seconds and then immediately cooled. By only briefly subjecting the product to high temperatures, most—if not all—taste and color changes are avoided. Flash pasteurization is preferred to other methods because it kills microbes without destroying beneficial phytonutrients.
Where are MonaVie products manufactured?
To ensure the highest level of quality, MonaVie blends and produces MonaVie products at its manufacturing facility in Salt Lake City, Utah (not far from the corporate office).
What is the shelf life of the MonaVie Original and Active Juices and MonaVie Gel?
If unopened, both the MonaVie Juices and MonaVie Gel have a shelf life of one year. If the MonaVie Juice has been opened, then the shelf life is approximately 30-60 days, as long as the opened bottle is refrigerated. The MonaVie Gel should be consumed in its entirety as soon as it is opened.
Are MonaVie products safe?
Yes, MonaVie products are safe and contain only well-tolerated foods. MonaVie contains fruit juices and purees naturally found in the food supply that have been consumed by various cultures for hundreds of years. However, if you have any health concerns, you should consult a physician before starting any new product or program.
Are MonaVie products FDA approved?
There is no official approval process or certificate issued by the FDA to approve the sale of any food or juice product. The Food and Drug Administration has established stringent regulations, called Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) to ensure the safety and manufacturing of foods sold in the United States. MonaVie is manufactured in a GMP-compliant facility. The ingredients contained in MonaVie products are generally recognized as safe (GRAS), and obtaining prior approval from the FDA is not required.
Do MonaVie products treat, cure, or prevent disease?
Eating a diet rich in a variety of fruits and vegetables is known to aid in the prevention of disease and in living a long, active, and healthy life. It is not the purpose of a natural product like MonaVie to treat, cure, or prevent disease; the FDA only approves drugs to offer these benefits. MonaVie products are made with a specific selection of powerful super-fruits and other natural compounds, such as glucosamine and esterified fatty acids. The fruits and compounds in MonaVie have been shown in some studies to help support the body’s ability to protect itself from various ailments.
The Science
What does ORAC mean?
An acronym for oxygen radical absorption capacity, ORAC is a way to measure the antioxidant capacity of a food. Foods with high ORAC values are desirable for their ability to neutralize free radicals, thus inhibiting the ability of the free radical to cause cell damage. The ORAC measurement was developed by a scientist at the National Institute of Aging in 1992 and has proven to be a valuable tool in quantifying health benefits associated with consuming fruits, vegetables, and other antioxidant-containing foods and supplements.
How many servings of fruits and vegetables does the U.S. National Research Council recommend we eat daily?
The U.S. National Research Council recommends that you consume at least five servings of fruits and vegetables per day to maintain a proper supply of food derived antioxidants for your body. Research indicates that only five percent of the U.S. population consumes five servings of fruits and vegetables per day.
What are phytonutrients?
Phytonutrients are naturally occurring compounds that contribute to the flavor, color, and disease-resistance of plants (i.e., fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes). Phytonutrients are powerful antioxidants, but their value extends much beyond free radical protection. Maximum health benefits are derived from consuming a variety of phytonutrients with a full spectrum of colors and pigments, such as those found in MonaVie products.
What are antioxidants?
Antioxidants are “agents” that inhibit harmful compounds known as free radicals. Free radicals cause damage to your cells through the process of oxidation. By donating an electron to unstable free radicals, antioxidants neutralize their harmful effects. Obtaining a variety of antioxidants through diet or supplementation is essential to maintaining your good health.
What are polyphenols?
Polyphenols are a class of powerful antioxidants that play an important role in preventing cardiovascular diseases (e.g., heart disease, heart failure, and stroke) and that have been shown to reduce harmful LDL cholesterol. Polyphenols are also thought to be responsible for the French Paradox: the French have a diet relatively high in fat, yet have a decreased incidence of heart disease. This is attributed to the amount of polyphenols present in the grapes used to make French wines. MonaVie products contain a powerful variety of polyphenols, including anthocyanins. It is estimated that MonaVie products have 20–30 times the amount of anthocyanins found in red wine.
What are free radicals?
Free radicals are atoms with at least one unpaired electron. In excess, free radicals produce harmful oxidation that can damage cell membranes. Free radicals are analogous to cattle let loose on a field of planted crops. Uncontrolled, the cattle would destroy the crops. Ranch hands are hired to make sure the cattle stay in place and graze. Antioxidants act much the same way. As the ranch hands for our bodies, antioxidants prevent free radicals from potentially damaging millions of healthy, functioning cells.
What is oxidative stress?
Oxidative stress occurs in your body when there are not enough antioxidants to counter the effects of damaging free radicals. Free radicals cause damage to all cellular components, including proteins, lipids, and DNA—the blueprint to cell proliferation. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the aging process and numerous health-related issues.
What causes excess free radicals?
Tobacco smoke, alcohol, pollution, insecticides, radiation, chemicals in the home or at work, and excessive amounts of sunlight are all prolific contributors to the formation of free radicals. Other causes include a high-fat diet, stress, insufficient sleep, and strenuous exercise.
How well does freeze-dried acai scavenge other free radicals such as peroxynitrite (NORAC), hydroxyl (HORAC), and superoxide anion (SORAC)?
The MonaVie Juice blend is a very powerful antioxidant against these additional free radicals; in fact, the SORAC assay score of 1,614 unit/g represents the highest value ever reported for superoxide scavenging activity in vitro of any food.
What is glucosamine hydrochloride?
Glucosamine hydrochloride is a natural compound found in the body that is used to help make and form cartilage. Glucosamine has also been shown to help lubricate, cushion, protect, and rebuild joints.
Is one form of glucosamine more effective than another?
There are three types of glucosamine: glucosamine hydrochloride (HCl), N-acetyl glucosamine, and glucosamine sulfate. Both glucosamine HCl and glucosamine sulfate are rapidly converted into “free” glucosamine in the stomach. So, from a medicinal standpoint, they are equally effective. However, glucosamine HCl is 79 percent glucosamine, while glucosamine sulfate is only between 47 and 52 percent glucosamine. We formulated MonaVie Active Juice with glucosamine HCl because this form of glucosamine contains the highest level of free glucosamine.
What are esterified fatty acids?
Esterified fatty acids are thought to reduce pain-like symptoms and rapidly promote joint health, improving flexibility and mobility. Esterification is the general name for a chemical reaction in which two chemicals (typically an alcohol and an acid) form an ester as the reaction product.
How much potassium is in MonaVie Original and MonaVie Active?
For customers concerned about potassium levels for reasons relating to dialysis, please consult a physician before taking MonaVie products. The potassium level in MonaVie Original and MonaVie Active is approximately 56 mg/oz. MonaVie Original and MonaVie Active contain no potassium additives, grapefruit, or cantaloupe.
Is there any vitamin K in MonaVie Original or MonaVie Active?
For customers concerned about vitamin K levels because of blood thinning medication, please consult a physician before taking any MonaVie products. The vitamin K level in MonaVie Original and MonaVie Active is approximately 12.4 µg/oz.
Why do MonaVie products contain preservatives?
Preservatives help maintain a product’s freshness. Sodium benzoate, an organic chemical preservative, can prevent the growth of almost all microorganisms (e.g., yeast, bacteria, and fungi) and occurs naturally in some fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices, nuts, wines, and teas.
Potassium sorbate is a potassium salt version of sorbic acid, a polyunsaturated fat used to inhibit mold growth. Sorbic acid has been repeatedly tested for safety and efficacy, and today stands as one of the most thoroughly tested food additives in history.
MonaVie Juices contain the preservative sodium benzoate and the antioxidant vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Is it true that sodium benzoate and vitamin C can react to form benzene?
In the presence of trace amounts of certain metals, which act as catalysts, vitamin C can produce free radicals that convert benzoate into benzene. The FDA and World Health Organization have set a standard for benzene levels in water and that level is 5 parts per billion. MonaVie tests its MonaVie Juices for benzene, and we are always well below the FDA’s and World Health Organization’s acceptable levels for benzene.
Do any of MonaVie's products contain MSG?
No.
Is MonaVie Active Juice safe for children and pregnant or nursing women?
The MonaVie Active formula is extremely safe; however, MonaVie Active Juice contains glucosamine hydrochloride and esterified fatty acids, which have not been tested in these types of individuals. It is MonaVie’s recommendation that children under the age of 12, pregnant women, and women who are nursing should not consume MonaVie Active Juice. If further information is required, please consult with your physician.
Are MonaVie products gluten-free?
Yes.
If someone is allergic to shellfish can they consume glucosamine hydrochloride?
Shellfish are a known allergen and glucosamine is derived from shrimp shells. However, people who are allergic to shellfish are actually allergic to the protein troponin, which is found in the muscle (protein) of shrimp. Analyses do not find any protein in the glucosamine hydrochloride used in MonaVie Active Juice. Glucosamine hydrochloride (GHCl), the form of glucosamine used in MonaVie Active Juice, is more than 99 percent pure. Because shellfish is a known allergen, please consult with a physician before taking MonaVie Active Juice.
Why are there natural flavors in MonaVie products?
MonaVie uses natural flavors in its products because a juice concentrate, which contains only the juice from a fruit, does not give you the entire flavor of the fruit. MonaVie’s natural flavors make our products more palatable and balanced by staying true to the natural flavor of the entire fruit. The natural flavor used in MonaVie Original and Active Juices and in MonaVie Gel is a mixed berry natural flavor.
I want to tell the whole world about this great product and I aslo want the whole world to know about the science behind the MonaVie juice.

Turn on YOUR Dream Machine,
Today is your day! It's time to turn on your dream machine! Turn your dream into a reality Today!
"Nothing happens until someone gets excited!" Now's the time. It's your future - BE THERE!
Can you remember when you were a child... you probably dreamt about doing all kinds of great things, you were going to live in a great big house, you were going to have the car of your dreams, you maybe even dreamed about traveling all around the world. What happened? Life got a hold of you right?
Like 97% of everyone else, you probably got stuck in a rut and started to "settle for". The true secret to winning is Desire. The secret to building your desire is DREAMS!
DREAMS FUEL DESIRE!
You have to decide that you're no longer going to "settle for" any amount of mediocrity in your life! You can have any amount of success you desire, if you'll believe it to be true. Napoleon Hill,in writing Think and Grow Rich, says that "Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve!" The thing that gives that book credibility is his research. He studied a number of successful people, and the one common cord running through them was that they were dreamers. They were just burning up inside with a dream they had cherished for years.
It's impossible to do anything great without a big dream. If you don't have a big dream, you're dead! Not physically, of course, but your opportunity to "be somebody" is dead. But by the same token, anyone (even you!) can have a big dream.
Anyone (even you!) who is a dreamer can still win. Anyone (yes, you too!) can begin to change in the next 30 days, beginning with the power of a dream. Stop thinking about how hopeless your situation is right now! Start thinking about the power of dreams and go make a wish! This may not be an overnight process for you. In fact your capacity to think big and have big dreams will grow as you grow. Zig Ziglar says it best - "Dream as far as you can see, and when you get there, you can see farther!"
ACTION ITEM: 1. Write down your dreams!
Pull out a blank sheet of paper right now and spend a minimum of 20 minutes writing down your dreams. Figure out what the most you can imagine to be possible and put it on paper. Don't limit yourself and just keep writing
down all the things you want. This step is critical if you want to win!
What are the things that work you into a white heat of passion? Is it:
Sending your kids to college?
Owning your dream car (or cars)?
Paying CASH for your dream home (or homes)?
Providing for your parents?
Helping others with debts?
Supporting charities?
Being financially independent?
Get specific - put as many items down as you can. (Keep the list where you can see it every day. Anytime you feel down or feel like maybe not calling your prospects back, look at this list and imagine what it's going to be like when you have them all!)
ACTION ITEM: 2. Picture your dreams!
Now let's help you crystallize those dreams and have you experience what it's like to have them. Look at the most impactful dreams on your list, close your eyes and picture yourself having them. Create a picture in your mind of already being in possession of what you desire! If it's your dream home - picture yourself waking through the home seeing the furniture, the furnishings, the doors, each room, the back yard - what are you looking at? Maybe a beach? If you have a pool in the back, feel yourself jumping in on a hot afternoon while everyone else is at work. Or, jumping in the hot tub on a cold day and watch the snow fall in your own glass atrium room.
Turn your dreams into a reality in your head. Start training your subconscious mind to believe that you're already in ownership of what you desire. If you remember the key to self-motivation from yesterday, you'll see the importance of doing this exercise.
If you think this is silly, do it anyway! If you keep doing what you're doing now, you're going to keep getting what you've always gotten. These are exercises that the top money earners in the industry agree is a must!
You can believe that to be true and do it, or you can do like the 90% of people who never become successful and lie to yourself saying you'll get to it later. You have the knowledge you need to win, but you MUST apply these principles if you want to make it!
Don't get left behind, turn on your dream machine, be a leader - let's make it happen for you!
Create your PHENOMENAL future,
