(Before It's News)

According to an article published in the South Bend Tribune on October 21, 2012, a student from John Adams High School (where I graduated) has completed a study on fruit and vegetable juice powders and will be presenting the findings to the IU Medical School.

From the Tribune,

“Junior Lauren Strzelecki, whose project, “A Study of the Possible Role of Long Term Ingestion of Supplemental Antioxidants on Cognitive Processes,” involved four groups of mice, with three who received supplements Vitamin A, Vitamin C or Juice Plus.

Ten different cognitive tests conducted on the mice showed that those who received supplements performed better than the control group, and the ones who received the array of supplements in Juice Plus performed best. “

I have no idea what the cognitive tests were or how the study was conducted but it sounds like a fascinating science project and I’m hoping that there will someday be gold standard double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized studies on fruit and vegetable juice powder supplements in the area of cognitive performance.
