I suggest that you google “price placebo effect.” If you still believe that a poorly formulated fruit punch is responsible for you feeling better, then I have some magic beans to sell you. They’re great for relieving gas.

I already told you that drinking Mona-vie has helped me to sleep better, which I do think is helping to give my body more energy. The reason I’m back with another update is because yesterday, I noticed that a pretty dull, but constant ache that I have had in my elbow (which felt like it does when you throw your arm out in baseball) for about the last 6 months or so, has went away.

What I’m finding as strange is that when I return to give you an update, you have indicated similar things would happen to me when I really had no idea, I have just been noticing different results as days & now weeks have went by just by drinking this juice & when I come back to share them with you, you say you expect I will say something similar. All I know is that the results I’m having are definitely worth drinking the juice to me. I don’t know if anyone, even you guys, could deny that it’s pretty cool to see some good things happening to my body without changing anything except for drinking Mona-vie. It is pretty crazy, even to me, to think about a juice doing these things, but it definitely is working for me and I’m sure if it’s working for me, it’ll work for anyone that’s not allergic to the fruits that are in it, because obviously it’s not going to work for just me.

I’m glad I saw this site and that it urged me to not take anything at face value, but to try the juice for myself. If I was out to be a jerk, I could say that you have no credibility here, because this juice is doing some great things for me and had I listened to your constant negativity about it, I’d have never known what it really could do for me, but instead, I do really thank-you, because this site helped me to look into Mona-vie further & now the juice is helping me, maybe with just little things here & there now, but I’m excited to continue drinking it to see what else it may do for me over the long run.

Let’s get real here. We already know the name of the game you’re playing. It’s the one where you first pretend like you merely have a passing interest in the juice. You take the opportunity to meet the skeptics head on in spite of allegedly having no prior ties to the product, and you share a personal sob-story about someone close to you who could have benefited from the juice if only he or she had been aware of it while they still had a chance. This is a ploy meant to play off of the natural paranoia that most folks have when it comes to their health. Then once you believe that you’ve got people’s trust, you graduate to being a drinker of the juice. This is the point at which you begin to share your anecdotal testimonials, trusting that by this point folks will be so paranoid that they’ll be willing to believe whatever you tell them. Eventually you’ll work some grand miracle into your anecdotes. Some terrible ailment will befall you, but your Doctor will be amazed when it’s revealed to him that you’ve managed to dodge a potentially lethal bullet just by drinking Monavie. And of course your Doctor will tell you to continue doing so. Then once you believe you’ve got everyone hooked, that’s when you’ll reveal the good news. You’ve decided to become a distributor! Now you can help spread the miracles the juice has bestowed upon you with everyone else, and oh, would anyone like to buy some from you now that you’re a distributor?
Look man, there’s just no reason whatsoever why an individual so paranoid about his health should eschew cheaper, more effective alternatives in favor of Monavie, unless of course that person is selling it. I mean…the very idea that someone with such a personal, vested interest in maintaining his health would be so willing to put a stake in a product that’s sold on the back of a multilevel marketing scheme, and do so in spite of the cheaper, scientifically proven alternatives that are available to him, is an idea so ludicrous that it’s beyond unbelievable. And yet that’s what you’d have us believe is going on here. It’s insulting how stupid you people think the rest of us are.

In order for your entire story to-date to be even remotely plausible, we would have to believe that you’re the world’s most unfortunate sucker, and I don’t get that impression from you. I believe that you think you’re more clever than you really are. After all, you expected us to buy this load of blatant clap-trap in spite of how poorly you’re selling it. However, for all your misplaced bravado, I don’t get the impression from you that you’re stupid.

Or maybe I’m giving you too much credit. Either way, you have no credibility here. You’re either a distributor or someone too naive to be trusted to make rational choices, so you’re better off cashing in your chips and moving to other pastures. You’re not going to make any headway here.

Let me guess…tomorrow, you’ll post that you suddenly have more energy, and your aches and pains are gone. We’ve heard this nonsense before. Funny thing, it seems to only happen to people that sell MonaVie. The people that I know who’ve tried it reported “absolutely zero benefits”, other than they’ve lost some wallet weight.

This update is obviously a little more personal, but yesterday & today I noticed that using the restroom has become easier & more regular, almost like clockwork…Very weird that a juice is doing this for me, but I think that being regular is definitely a good thing for anyone’s system. I haven’t changed anything else, so it’s definitely gotten my attention because these changes are definitely interesting to me.

I checked with a known distributor, who told me that a single bottle of MonaVie for a non-distributor is $45 per bottle. So, unless you bought a whole lot of cases, your story doesn’t add up. I expect that you’ll come back with stories of wonderous miracles after drinking MonaVie.

Unless you have some science to back up your claims, we’ll simply file it under unverifiable, made up anecdotes about MonaVie.

I promised I’d give you updates to see what this juice does for me, so it’s day 3 of drinking Mona-vie’s Active juice & I am sleeping a full night instead of my normal restless baloney of getting up every couple of hours, so I’m pretty happy because I do feel more rested & energetic because of that already. I normally eat very well & take vitamins, so this has got me very curious…I’ll let you know if I notice anything else because after originally reading this blog, with the exception of some of the positive things I saw from people who you guys pointed out as being possible distributors, I thought it might be some kind of scam & going on this alone, I would have never even tried it. I agree that if it does something or not, the truth & proof from an unbiased person actually trying the juice should be put out there for everyone’s benefit.

First, V-8 doesn’t make any wild claims. V-8 vegetable juice claims to have two full servings of vegetables per 8 ounce glass. To make this claim, they must submit their recipe to the FDA for verification. MonaVie hasn’t done that. Why? They don’t want the FDA to know anything about their recipes. Why?

V-8 doesn’t make any claims of cure or treatment. MonaVie doesn’t either, but their distributors certainly do, with a wink from corporate.

V-8 doesn’t make any antioxidant claims. MonaVie claims to have the antioxidant capacity of 5 to 13 fruits. This is only true if you compare it to 5 to 13 ORAC anemic fruits, such as watermelon.

V-8 doesn’t cost 10 to 20 times more than a comparable competitor. MonaVie does.

The fact is a days serving of MonaVie has an ORAC score lower than ONE apple. Period.

Now here’s the thing dude. You’re here pouring your heart out about your Uncle’s death and how utterly frightened it has made you that you may die like he did, and yet you’re all too willing to put your life in the hands of a fruit-juice that’s sold on lofty promises by a company that has never provided any proof at all that it’s fruit-juice can actually meet those promises.

I don’t get that. It doesn’t make sense to me. Someone who appears to be as outwardly interested in maintaining his health as you do ought to be more skeptical, especially of a fruit-juice sold by a marketing company. This juice is only a means to an end, and if Monavie came to the conclusion that there was more money to be made selling used tampons, they’d abandon the fruit-juice in a heartbeat. So really guy, you shouldn’t be so eager to trust your health to a company like Monavie. At best the juice will quench your thirst, but it’s not going to keep you from getting cancer if it’s in your family.

It is sad how many gullible people are out there, but I gues these MLM schemes wouldn’t be as profitable as they are if there wasn’t any. So if you can live with yourself and keep spewing these lies about this miracle fruit juice by all means have at it. But when you are broke and are in debt up to your necks, don’t blame us, because we tried to warn you. This company will fail, just like the rest of them in the past.

I’m just glad there are people in this world who do have common sense, and see what this company is all about.

Consider the source. Marketing people are, by nature, unreliable sources of factual information. Their job is to sell as much product for the highest price possible. Facts be damned.

Obviously, you’re already deeply involved with this scam, and maybe a little embarrassed by it all. It may be hard for you to back out now that you’ve told all of your friends and family about your “wonderful” discovery.

But, back out is exactly what you need to do. Eventually the roof is going to fall in. Get out while you still have some honor.

You of all people should be demanding conclusive proof that this fruit-juice is going to deliver on its promises. That you’re so willing to hang your health on anecdotal testimonials and ignore the fact that there is no scientific proof whatsoever that this alleged cure-all is everything Monavie says it is, is disturbing.

Why is that? Well, you’re the sort of person that Monavie loves. You’re so desperate for some sort of magical answer to all life’s problems that you’ll eagerly buy into the hyperbole. You say that you’re not willing to take chances like your uncle did, but that’s exactly what you’re going to be doing if you rely on Monavie to help manage your health. And Monavie will feed you what they think you need to hear to sell this crap.

I feel for you, I really do. You’re scared, and maybe rightfully so, but Monavie isn’t going to do for you what you think it is. Go buy a bottle of V8. It’s cheaper, and potentially healthier than Monavie.

I know that I personally am willing to give Monavie a try because after searching for something for so long to help better my health & finding out that simple vitamins will never help, because they don’t even digest & I do have complete proof of this because I have a friend that works at the sewer district & sees thousands & thousands of them come through daily fully intact, I’m willing to drink juice. Since statistics are showing that 1 in 2 men will get cancer & 1 in 3 women will get cancer & most of the men and women in my life, not just my family, have already been touched by it personally & yes, they have all eaten apples their whole life, I’ll believe what Monavie can possibly do for my body over an apple any day, because obviously apples aren’t working! Cancer is like a freakin epidemic these days, has anybody else noticed this? Who knows…maybe it’s not the ORAC score that holds the proof as to why Monavie will work. I can’t speak for you or anyone else, but I’m not willing to take my chances like my uncles did dying very prematurely by just eating an apple or two every day, I’d rather give this juice a fair chance.
