Oh my goodness yes - the hurricane. It was so crazy around here for about 4 days. Weren't sure where it was going to hit until about Wednesday. At that time, the projected that the eye was going to go right over my city. YIKES. It was a mas exodus to get out of the city. Luckily, my husband was leaving for Austin for work that day and already had a hotel with a kitchenette booked. I was so thankful because all I kept thinking about was the fact that I could not lose electricity. With my IBS, there is no eating out. I have to cook everything. I was scared to death. Visions of stomach cramps dancing in my head. We packed up our 2 dogs and our 2 year old and headed to Austin that Wednesday. The rest of the city waited until Thursday and so many weren't able to get out becuase the traffic was so bad. Everyone was headed for Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio mostly. THe hotels booked FAST so a lot of people had to camp out in their cars. What should have taken these people 3-6 hours to get to one of these cities was taking 13-18 hours in the traffic. I heard some real horror stories. People were inevitably running out of gas and water all over the place as the gas stations were depleted. People actually died on the side of the road from heat exhaustion. As bad luck would have it, we were experiencing record high temps that weekend. It got up to 100 degrees. Can you imagine being stuck in your car, with no AC, in 100 degree weather. Anyway, on Friday, the storm took a very slight curve to the north east and missed houston almost completely. We got a lot of wind and rain, but nothing devastating. We lucked out big time.
Thank you so much for your concern.

I'm asking because if I'm doing my math right:
Garden Blend is providing 7000 IU of Vitamin A
Orchard Blend is providing 5500 IU of Vitamin A
Combined, that's 12,500 IU of Vitamin A, so I'm hoping that's per daily dose.

I will check the label and see if it is per cap or per dose. I think's it's per dose but I want to make sure.

The labels indicates the information listed in the previous post (the Nutrition Facts) is per Serving and a Serving is 2 caps. This for Orchard and Garden blends.

Thanks for the info. I ended up making my points in this thread. I think it's great this worked for you, but do truly believe that actually eating the fruits and vegetables is the best way to go - there's just too much we don't yet know about how all the pieces of nature work together.
And Poochibelly has a post asking that you post the ingredients - I guess you missed it. If you would do that, I think it would be very helpful to anyone considering JuicePlus.

Sorry if this doesn't display correct on the post. I'm not sure how to format it. I have it in a Microsoft Word document if anyone wants it like that (it is easier to read).
Thanks
Terry :)
