The NEW me & some sincere, valid testimonial to JP+

Salam & Greetings to ALL.

It's been a while since I last posted an entry to this blog. Has it been a year? Almost. Oh, I have been very busy juggling between work, family and my personal relationships with friends, colleagues, friends of friends yada yada yadaaa~ If I were to put everthing here, I'm afraid I'll bore you, YES YOU, my lovely readers (as if anyone would read this) with not-so-important things. Anyhoo, I'm a girl, and obviously I have loads to talk about. =D

I just thought of writing this because,

FIRST: I can't sleep (I need to!! I got school tomorrow!!!) and..

SECOND: I just thought, since I can't sleep, why not I write about something that I have been taking for almost 7 months now without fail (Alhamdulillah) and planning to continue taking it for as long as I live (Insha'Allah).

Have any of you heard of Juice Plus+? Well you can click on that URL for more interesting facts about the product.

Well, I must first tell you how did I come across this JP+ thing.

A few years back, I had this female problem: period pain. EVERY MONTH without fail. HOWEVER, the problem was, I got the pain every month, but trust me, I didn't get my menses every month. This irregularity scared me. I'm a woman (whoaaa I feel so old now), and of course I would want to have babies, one day, Insha'Allah. I only got my menses, every 3-4 months. THAT BAD.

And when I got it, I fell sick, feeling bloated, and the doctor almost became my best friend - not to mention the MCs. There was a time when I actually went to see the gynae and did an ultrasound to check if there's anything irregular in my tummy. My dear friends Syuk and Dieylawere there to accompany me, should anything bad happen. Alhamdulillah, everything was okay, just a slight abnormality which the gynae said not to worry about. So, she prescribe me some pills so that I would get my menses. For a few times, I had to take that prescriptions, which is very inadvisable to do so.

So, I started taking PRIMROSE + FISH OIL supplement. It didn't really show any improvement, until I asked for my aunt's opinion on which supplement (over the counter) I should take. Alhamdulillah, I made the right choice. I told her I want a supplement to:

address my menstrual problem

boost my energy

and if possible, address my sinus problem (yeahh, every morning it was like ekzos tersumbat!!)

So, my aunt suggested me to take Juice Plus+ because she had experience good results by taking it and she has been on it for the last 12years. Btw, my aunt is like my foster mum because I've been staying with her for quite some time now. Anyhoo, I knew about her eczema problem - but they're all gone now. I knew about the speckled cyst in her womb - but the doctor was amazed to see her womb was clear from any cyst. I knew my granddad had terrible sneezes (due to sinus) before. I knew my nephews have good immune system -- the last boy to fall sick when everyone in his class fell sick. I knew all this. What I knew, but didn't realize was, my aunt has been feeding them JP+!

So, yeah. For someone to take something for a very long time (12 years, peeps!) -- there must be something really awesome about this product. So I decided to give it a try.

1st Month - I got my menses! Period pain? Still got a little bit, but bearable. Doctor's visit? Nope. Since, it worked, I just carry on taking it.

2nd Month - I guess I don't have to worry about my menses anymore! Oh! No more sneezing like "ekzos tersumbat" every morning!

3rd-6th Month - Well I thought I had hit the plateau (you know when you're improving on something, your line graph will go up and up and up and up until you come to a point where the line will just go horizontally? That's the plateau) -- coming back to what I was saying, when I thought I already hit the plateau, no more health problem to address, I came across an old picture. I looked like this:

17th October 2009

When I told my friends, I used to have breakouts, pimples, especially during menses -- they said "TIPULAH! You mana ada jerawat!"

People, to erase the red dots on a picture is easy. To put it on back? Must be really tricky -- because you need to be able to make it look natural right? And peeps, this is not the only image. I have a lot more, but the pics were all during my dark era (without the hijab). Haha.

Anyhoo, now I look like this:

Taken recently in October 2010

Well, you can see in me real life if you don't believe the image. Real life photoshop. =) No more pimples even during menses. Alhamdulillah.

Some of my friends even asked me what product am I using, (oh well, I've tried SK-II for a year, I guess it's super-freaking expensive to continue with! -- and the result is super freaking SLOW), really peeps, I only use a regular cleanser (cukup syarat cuci muka) and a moisturiser (also cukup syarat to moisten my skin). But if money isn't an issue, you can opt for a more expensive product.

The rest, I dare say, beauty comes from within! HAHAHA! What a cliche! No, what I meant was, you are what you eat. So, this JP+ works by cleansing the toxin in your LIVER (mother of most sickness). Isn't your liver inside your body?? So, yes. BEAUTY DOES come from within (well of course I do believe that with pure hearts, the light will show on the face as well)

I believe I've said so much already. Here's the summary of what I was trying to convey:

• I wanted a supplement to address my menstrual irregularity and,
• to boost my energy level.

But these are the things I've been getting by taking Juice Plus+ everyday since March 2010:

1. Better health - no more doctor's visit
2. Better energy level
3. I get my menses every month - so far (Alhamdulillah)
4. My period pain is bearable, I can go shopping even during the first day!
5. Better skin (no more breakouts even during menses)
6. Pink fingernails
7. My fingernails grow 2x faster (need to clip them at least twice a week) - a good sign that my body cells are regenerating 2x as fast
8. Less hairfall, healthier and stronger hair
9. No more bad sneezes due to sinus in the morning (I do get it sometimes when it's too cold, but hey, it's so much better than EVERYDAY)
10. No more knee pain! Alhamdulillah! (driving a manual car can take a toll on you!) So no more knee pain when climbing stairs
11. Better immune system -- if I was about to fall sick, I double dose it, and insha'Allah, quick recovery!

Besides, Juice Plus+ is also a prevention from CANCER. Why?

It's purely FRUITS & VEGETABLES. Chemical FREE. And it's certified HALAL as it is all plant-based. This product also is backed up with extensive scientific research. Please take your time and visit Juice Plus+.

Great things are supposed to be shared anyways.
