Monavie is the premier company in the health and wellness industry.

A potable called Mona Vie supplies a healthy drink product. The ingredients of this beverage are acai berry pulp powder, puree and fruit concentrates that are blended in it. Bilberries, black chokeberries, wolfberries and acerola cherry and other fruits are used in its preparation. Some fruits that act as antioxidants are also used, thus this drink serves the purpose of antioxidants, and it’s also useful for diabetic patients and works as dietary supplements.

This drink is marketed by the strategies of MLM or multilevel marketing for its distribution or promotion. Lists of family and contacts are promoted for marketing purpose. The packaging of the product is done in attractive color bottles to draw the customer’s attention. Mona Vie also has varieties of beverages that are MonaVie Original, MonaVie Active Blend, MonaVie Kosher Blend and MonaVie Pulse Blend. Gel based product comprises of Mona Vie active gel pack and Mona Vie gel packs.

Acai pulp and powder that are the promoted by the beverage unit are dried in the freezer so as to retain its nutrition. This potable is made up if white grape, apple, acerola, aronia, purple grape, cranberry, wolfberry, pomergranate, lychee, camu camu, pear, banana, bilberry, passion fruit, apricot, prune, kiwifruit, blueberry, citric acid, sodium benzoate, esterfied fatty acids and finally d-glucosamine hydrochloride.

Although this product is marketed strategically by many frauds have been found. The complains of manufacturing are summarized as follows: Acai berries are not fetched from Sambazon where the best berries grow, Acai is not dried by freezing to 100%, a mixture of acai powder and acai puree is used as an ingredient. There have also been complains of marketing and distribution strategy but still the juice has received good reviews from its customers thereby attaining success. The reviews about Mona Vie are all concerned with its sincerity as it’s a unique product. The benefits offered by the product makes it popular among juices. People should include this beverage in their daily diet for good results.

A proper training is given to the low level distributors for effective marketing. One should be careful of Mona Vie online training as they are not that useful and also charge money. Earlier brochures were used as marketing strategy that contained information about the product and different means to get it.  Although the drink has many benefits not all confirmed with this, Brag Hart was one of them. He was a great spokesperson and was quite against by the product being tagged as super drink.

The benefits offered by the drink have not been able to cover the dissatisfaction of the consumers which have been rising for quite some time. The main complain is, the fight against the cost of the bottle and the quantity available against this cost. For good results 2 ounces should be consumed in the day and 1 ounce in the night but the bottle is of 25 ounce thus it gets over within a week. The bottle costs around $30 to $40 and people feel that the quantity given is not adequate at this price.

Ever since the antioxidant anti aging boom there have been a number of great products pop up on the market to fill our anti-aging and health desires. But what is really in these products and which one is best for us and our budget. I am going to review a few of the antioxidant drink leaders and let you decide what is right for you. I will include ingredients, ORAC value, price, and real testimonials. You can decide what fits you best.

We may not be sure what antioxidant drink is right for us but no one can argue that an antioxidant supplement is an absolute MUST in our day and time. What with our food being chalked full of pesticides, hormones, and ever declining nutritional value. There is no denying if we want to live long and look good we have to make an effort and take advantage of these scientific discoveries.

I am sure you have all seen Dr.Oz on Oprah and Barbara Walters and Dr. Sinclair talking about the benefits and necessity of anti-oxidants in our diet. They have also gone on and on about the miracle discovery of resveratrol. So we know we need these miracle berries and ingredients in our daily routine but with everyone taking advantage of the media hype which product is right for us?

Ok, lets start with listing a number of antioxidant drinks now available and their main ingredient. I will start with highest ORAC value to lowest.

Vital Fruits-contains the premium antioxidant, Resveratrol and acai, as one of its key components as well as extracts of Acai, Noni, Mangosteen and 20 more antioxidant super foods.The TOTAL ORAC value of this product is 4000 (Brunswick Lab Tested)One bottle of Vital Fruits lasts one month taking one or two shots a day.

Resvinatrol Complete-this product contains a 6000 ORAC value but only for the anti oxidant Resveratrol. So if you are a resveratrol believer. This one is for you. This drink also contains an antioxidant blend, CO Q10, Omega 3 fatty acids to support heart health. It is one of the only drinks certified to lower cholesterol due to added plant sterols.

Mona vie-this products main ingredient is acai, it contains 13 servings of fruits and vegetables in a bottle. It contains a 1027 ORAC value and it comes in a lovely wine bottle, one bottle lasts two weeks. Although a quality product you may have to find a rep to buy it as it is a multi-level company who produces it.

Purple- Contains 7 antioxident berries. The TOTAL ORAC value is 2800. It comes in individual bottles and can be somewhat pricey when you add it up to one drink a day. It requires a whole bottle(individual size) a day rather then a shot. This can result in you needing a whole pack to last a week.

Brazillian Body Shot- although this products does not claim to be an antioxidant supplement. It was, however, one of the first ones on the market to actually contain acai. It combines acai and green tea. It comes in little individual shots and is one of the more economical choices. Warning, it does have taurine and will act as an “upper”. Do not drink this one at night! There have been high levels of weight loss reported with this product. Although not one of your stronger antioxidant drinks. It contains only acai where others contain multi.

Beware of products boasting ORAC values of “21,000″ or millions (as this is not possible). When in doubt call and find out what lab they are tested in.
