Juven Nutrition Support for Wound Healing, Orange, 48ct

Purchased to drink after surgery. Taste great. A little pricey but work well. Helps healing times.

Really does help with healing

Good price

Used this before and after mommy makeover. Recovery was a breeze and I contribute that tobthe nutrients of these.

The product is very good. It does what it says. I was first told to use it by the dietitian at the hospital I was in for cancer surgery. Due to the nature of my cancer, the amount of radiation and chemo left my skin very damaged. Healing was and still is difficult. Basically, any surgery is 2 steps forward, 1 back since the wounds take forever to heal. That would include hyperbaric treatments, 2 to 3 months of weekly visits to the wound care clinic, wound vacs.. you name it. Juven has definitely increased the overall improvement of my healing, for that, I have no complaints. What really bothers me is that when I ordered the product on Nov 11, the price was 113.00 per box. I order 2 at a time since I require 2 packs per day. 2 boxes lasts just a tad over a month. I ordered again on December 11th. The price increased by $20. Really??? This isn't a protein pack or an item that can be replaced with a thousand of different items just like it. It's not for body building or gym use, it is not a food supplement like Boost, it is not designed for weight loss like slimfast. No, it is specifically designed for people who have difficulty with wound healing. If you read the label, that is what it states. Since it is sold over the counter, it cannot be prescribed as my g-tube feeding product is, hence insurance will not cover it. It angers me to no end that Abbott (the pharmaceutical company) once again is taking advantage of what people require in order to heal and try to live a normal life. Then to add insult, hand the item over to individual vendors to price it at whatever amount they wish. Yet you have to have it, so you beg, borrow and plead with friends, strangers, or pay other bills late or not at all, just to make sure you are able to afford something that will help keep you alive. Yes, it is that critical when you specific cancers and other diseases that cause massive open wounds. So.. here I am, buying it from this company because I have to have it and the product does work. Yet angry that they would take advantage of me and anyone else in my situation. I guess you, the reader and potential customer, will have to make up your own mind if you want to purchase it.

If you do the research, less expensive brands do not have same concentration of nutrients. This product , although $ , offers more nutrients needed for healing. As a hospital nurse, I recommend this product for all surgical procedures , and of course, wounds. I follow my own advice. I also add protein ,selenium and quercetin , all of which support the immune system and wound healing.

Do not hesitate to buy this product. If you're planning to have any type of surgery that involves stitches that could lead to scarring this product is for you! I started drinking the product 2 weeks before my surgery and oh my goodness what a difference it made. Within 4 weeks of my surgery my stitches Appear to still they have been healing for over 2 months the months. My swelling had subsided so much & my recovery process was more comfortable. Yes the product is pricey but the benefit far outweighed the cost. I wish I had this product years ago for my beautiful grandma who struggled so much with diabetes and healing. I have my mom drinking it now and I even drink 1 packet per-day For ongoing health benefits. I prefer the orange flavor and mix it with 4oz H2O/4oz Pineapple juice and it's yummy! Juven 4 life!!!

I recently had surgery to correct my scoliosis, despite the fact I have lived with it since age 11, and I am now 54, I could no longer tolerate the pain it was causing. The results were nothing short of amazing, but my healing was not progressing the way my surgeon wanted, and I required a second surgery. The nutritionist suggested I try this to speed up my wound healing, and boy, did it ever make a huge difference!! My incision, from my neck to my pelvis, has healed beautifully, and there is virtually no pain during my recovery period. Best of all, the orange flavor actually tastes delicious. I add 8 oz of cold bottled water to one package of the mix, stir well with a few small ice-cubes, and it makes a thirst quenching drink that tastes fantastic especially on a warm summer day. I admit the price was a bit shocking, but you simply can't put a price on having a healthy, successful recovery period. I will continue to use it for a few more months to insure my body completely heals correctly. I highly recommend this tasty supplement which continues to create a positive outcome , it is extremely worth the cost. Give it a try, you'll love the results!!
