Reviews

If you’d like me to review your product, feel free to contact me at healingwithjuices at gmail dot com. I don’t agree to review every single product I’m approached about. I prefer to write reviews about products I feel are true to the health theme of my blog. That means foods, books, DVDs, etc., that represent life and health as naturally as possible. It doesn’t have to be 100% Certified Organic and raw for me to be interested. If you aren’t sure, please feel free to ask.

Reviews are listed according to category, following this mention of the Federal Trade Commission’s ruling to regulate bloggers:

Disclaimer: Regarding the FTC ruling that bloggers are required to announce when they’re paid to do a review or receive free samples… I’ve never been paid to write a review (via cash/check/money order/PayPal/etc.). I do receive samples of products, books, DVDs, foods, drink powders, etc. Each and every time I’ve received samples, I’ve openly thanked the company who sponsored the review and/or contest. I see no reason whatsoever to hide the fact I receive samples.

If you come across a review that doesn’t mention a sponsor, it’s because a) I’ve bought the item(s) with my own money or b) because I’ve won the item(s) in a contest somewhere on the Web (probably a blog contest).

On sponsored reviews, you’ll notice that I point out (usually at the top and/or bottom of the post) that it’s a sponsored review. And as I mentioned above, I’ll openly thank the company who sent the product(s).

You can rest assured that I’ll always be honest. I haven’t reviewed anything that was horrific yet so I have posted favorable reviews so far. The reason for that is because I’m passionately in love with the taste of health! I’ve mentioned in posts where I feel the product may not taste delightful to you. I’ve actually grown accustomed to tasting really, really earthy/green/herbal teas, tonics, smoothies, etc. that you may not be used to consuming. So, when I say I absolutely love a certain product, you may have to disguise it until you get used to it. Everyone’s taste buds are different and I share reviews based upon my own taste buds, while trying to keep yours in mind as well. The only other negative I’ve found in things I’ve reviewed is cost. I realize there are things out there that are healthy and do help me feel better that are simply not feasible for everyone’s budget – including my own.

Blogging is a lot of work, especially when the author puts a lot of time, effort, research, knowledge, heart and soul into their design, each blog post, answering emails and responding to comments. I personally don’t feel it’s a sin to receive samples, share an honest review, and at times host a contest for companies I believe in.

I do hope you’ll enjoy reviews and contests I work hard to share with you, and please know that I always do so with honesty and integrity…

This page will be updated and grow as I continue to review various books, DVDs, foods, and other items I feel are relevant to good health. Do check back often for the latest reviews!
