What is acai

Acai is a small, round, dark-purple berry with amazing nutritional properties. Its appearance is similar to that of a grape, but it has a smaller amount of pulp and a single large seed. Scientific experts have referred to the acai berry as the most nutritious and powerful food in the world.

Why does the acai berry seem to get more attention than the other healthful fruits in MonaVie

While all the fruits contained in MonaVie have unique properties that benefit your body, the acai berry has become the “headliner” fruit because it is packed with nutritional value—proteins, healthy fats, fiber, vitamins, minerals,and trace minerals. It also has a low glycemic index. So complete is this berry that the Brazilian people living along the Amazon can survive on it as their sole source of food and demonstrate amazing vitality and energy. More important than this, however, is the impressive amount of phytonutrients that MonaVie is able to capture from the acai berry.

Does acai have a high ORAC score

Yes, with an ORAC score of 1,027 per gram, the acai used in MonaVie boasts the highest ORAC score of any fruit or vegetable tested to date. The acai fruit is the star among other well-known antioxidants, such as blueberries, grapes, red wine, green tea, cranberries, blackberries, and pomegranates. By comparison, acai has more than 10 times the antioxidant power of cranberries.

Where does acai grow

The acai berry grows in clusters on the acai palm, a genus of 25–30 species of palms native to tropical Central and South America. These tall, slender, and attractive palms can grow 15–30 meters tall, with leaves up to 3 meters long. The prime commercial source of acai comes from the area where several rivers converge within the Amazon estuary, emptying along the northeastern corner of Brazil into the Atlantic Ocean between the states of Para and Amapa. The people of Brazil refer to acai as the “Milk of the Amazon.”

Does harvesting the acai berry destroy the Amazon rainforest

No. In fact, MonaVie is helping to preserve the Amazon rainforest by harvesting the acai berry. Each week, poachers illegally chop down 5,000–10,000 palm trees to obtain and sell a 12-inch section of the palm known as the “palmito.” As a result, the entire tree dies. On the other hand, by harvesting the acai berry, the palm tree continues to thrive and the natives have an incentive to preserve the acai-bearing palm tree.

Is MonaVie’s acai certified organic

Yes. The acai used by MonaVie is certified organic through The Institute for Marketecology (IMO). IMO is one of the first and most renowned international agencies for inspection, certification, and quality assurance of eco-friendly products. IMO’s worldwide activities are accredited by the Swiss Accreditation Service (SAS), according to EN 45011 (ISO 65), which is the international standard for organic certification.

Are all the fruits in MonaVie products certified organic

Açai, acerola, camu camu, and bilberry are certified organic. However, it is not possible to have all the fruits in MonaVie products be certified organic; for example, MonaVie’s wolfberry is harvested in China, and the Chinese government does not have an organic certification process.

How much acai is contained in MonaVie products

Because MonaVie product formulas are proprietary, the exact amount of acai or the other fruits contained in the blend is not disclosed. However, it is the first and primary ingredient and taste alone will tell you that the majority of the product is organic acai.

Does MonaVie use flash pasteurization

Yes. With flash pasteurization, the product is heated for approximately 15–30 seconds and then immediately cooled. By only briefly subjecting the product to high temperatures, most—if not all—taste and color changes are avoided. Flash pasteurization is preferred to other methods because it kills microbes without destroying beneficial phytonutrients.

Where are MonaVie products manufactured

To ensure the highest level of quality, MonaVie blends and produces MonaVie products at its manufacturing facility in Salt Lake City, Utah (not far from the corporate office).

What is the shelf life of the MonaVie Original and Active Juices and MonaVie Gel

If unopened, both the MonaVie Juices and MonaVie Gel have a shelf life of one year. If the MonaVie Juice has been opened, then the shelf life is approximately 30-60 days, as long as the opened bottle is refrigerated. The MonaVie Gel should be consumed in its entirety as soon as it is opened.

Are MonaVie products safe

Yes, MonaVie products are safe and contain only well-tolerated foods. MonaVie contains fruit juices and purees naturally found in the food supply that have been consumed by various cultures for hundreds of years. However, if you have any health concerns, you should consult a physician before starting any new product or program.

Are MonaVie products FDA approved

There is no special approval or certificate needed from the FDA to approve the sale of a juice product. As long as the ingredients contained in MonaVie products are generally recognized as safe, which they are, FDA approval is not necessary.

Do MonaVie products treat, cure, or prevent disease

It is not the purpose of a natural product like MonaVie to treat, cure, or prevent disease; the FDA approves drugs to treat, cure, and prevent disease. MonaVie’s products are made with a specific selection of fruits and other natural compounds such as glucosamine hydrochloride and esterified fatty acids. These fruits and compounds have been shown in some studies to protect from various ailments.

What's wrong with eating fruits and multi-vitamins

Nothing. However, the fruits we eat today severely lack the nutrition they once had a long time ago. The farming industry has become very competitive and the fruit gets plucked from the tree way too early these days. Besides all the pesticides and chemicals used to treat them, the fruit do not get the time (on the vine or tree) to absorb the sun's rays and build up a natural defense against outside invaders (bacteria, viruses, mold, etc.) Fruits and berries grown in the wild always have a much higher level of antioxidants and phytonutrients than those grown in the "not-so-fertile" soil on the farms. It's the phytonutrients (phyto=light) that give the fruit their color and act as a natural self defense against bad cells. When you eat these berries rich in nutrients, you will gain their ability to fight off disease and promote healthy cells in your body. This is what happens when you drink MonaVie, and you're also getting the variety of 19 different fruits. Most people don't eat the daily recommended 10+ fruits per day to keep optimal health levels.

What about all the other Acai drinks out there

All the other drinks out there are inferior to MonaVie for a few reasons. Acai spoils very quickly, within hours after harvesting. Monavie uses a patented procuring procces where they flash freeze dry the fruit as soon as it's harvested off the tree and sent to the plant in the Brazillian Amazon. The berries are then shipped to the bottling plant in the US, where the juice is produced. This is the only way to preserve the high antioxidant levels in the acai berry. Other acai drinks do not use this technique, and by the time the berries are brought back to this country and bottled, all you have left is a sugary pop drink that tastes like acai. Little or no health benefits there. Coca Cola and Pepsi are devising their own acai flavored drinks, but there is nothing scientific or healthy with their blend. These other drinks don't contain Glucosomine, either. They will certainly be cheaper in price, and everyone knows you get what you pay for. To get the same amount of antioxiant levels in a competitor's product, you would have to drink much more to get the same amount as an ounce serving of MonaVie. Also, Monavie adds 18 other exotic fruits that benefit the body in different ways that acai alone.

Can I get MonaVie cheaper if I buy in bulk

Yes, you can sign up with the company to get bulk order pricing. The cost of membership is $39 (one-time fee). This allows you to purchase at wholesale prices and gives you Independent Distributor status and placement in the company. There is no contract and you can order as much or as little as you want. It's similar to Costco: you purchase a membership ($50) so you can shop in their store at their "wholesale" prices. There is an added bonus to membership in MonaVie's company. This is a rare product that's so unique and beneficial to people's lives. The company will pay you to share it with anybody in your life who would like to look and feel younger, and earn a residual income part-time on the side. MonaVie has an exciting compensation plan that can be seen in the "share it" section of this website.

Why isn't this sold in stores

MonaVie is something special. The company made a decision to take this product to market in a network. Would you spend the money on a bottle of Acai juice in the supermarket without knowing anything about it? Probably not. This product demands that a story be told about it, it's that good! If you have ever recommended a restaurant to a friend, then you have participated in network marketing (you just didn't get paid for it). Companies that sell products in stores pay huge amounts of money on shelf space and advertising. Where does MonaVie spend that saved overhead money? The company pays out 50% of their profit every week to their independent distributors. It's like recommending your friend to get a Costco membership and actually having Costco pay you a commission for every dollar they spend at the store.

How long will a bottle last

You should drink four ounces a day, two in the morning and two at night. A bottle typically lasts a week to a week and a half for one person, longer if you only drink two ounces a day. A single person should order a case (4 bottles) for a month. Couples who both drink it should get two cases for a month.

How long before I start to feel the effects

Studies have shown that the Acai berry is a natural anti-inflammatory. Many people have reported great relief from everyday aches and pains that they weren't getting from other sources (including medicine). Many people feel the effects on their joints and pain after only a few days. The biggest benefit of drinking Monavie cannot even be felt. In lab tests, raw Acai has also shown to kill cancer cells!! This isn't saying that MonaVie can cure cancer, leukemia or diseases, but based on what scientists and doctors are seeing in lab tests, you may expect similar results inside the body.

Why are we promoting MonaVie

Since it's not sold in stores, word of mouth advertising is the only way to tell people about this incredible product. People have been looking for something like this to be discovered and made available, and now it's here. It's no doubt this product is extraordinary and with MonaVie's patented process of procuring the Acai, competitor products can't claim the same results. What's also amazing is the company's compensation plan. MonaVie pays you to share the product and the plan with those who have an interest in their health and financial wellbeing. On a business standpoint, you have a unique, consumable product backed by a first class company and entering the market at a time where a huge segment of our population will regularly spend money on their health and wellness (the baby-boomers). That's a recipe for success, and we're lucky to have this opportunity to cash in on an emerging trend before it explodes worldwide.

Who is MonaVie

MonaVie is a company where the very best of nature and science have come together to unlock the power of the world’s most nutrient-dense fruits. Our health and nutritional products center on a proprietary blend of the acai berry (pronounced “ah-sigh-ee”)—found only in remote regions of the Amazon—and other unique fruits, each selected for its specific nutritional properties. MonaVie brand products are designed to provide you with the antioxidant protection and phytonutrients you need to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle.

Why did you select network marketing to distribute your products

That’s simple; it’s about people. The entire purpose of our company, our products, and our business opportunity is to improve and enrich the lives of people around the world. And what better way is there to accomplish this than through personal relationships and the power of network marketing.

When was MonaVie founded

MonaVie was introduced in January of 2005 and has quickly become one of the fastest growing and most talked about network marketing companies in the world. We feel that the growth and excitement surrounding MonaVie can be attributed to the benefits that individuals have experienced with our unique products and the success that they have found with our rewarding business model.

How does MonaVie help to protect the Amazon rainforest

Each week, poachers illegally chop down between 5,000 and 10,000 acai palm trees simply to harvest a 12-inch section of the tree known as the heart of the palm (or “palmito”). Once these trees are destroyed, they never return. By creating a demand for the acai berry, MonaVie has given locals an economic incentive to harvest only the berries and not the heart of the palm. This not only preserves the trees and the Amazon rainforest, but it also provides a continual source of income for the locals.

In what countries is MonaVie sold

MonaVie currently operates in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and Japan. We are rapidly expanding to other markets around the world as we build a truly global brand.

Does MonaVie use recycled glass in its glass bottles

Is there a fee to become a distributor?

As a retail customer, you may purchase MonaVie products at the retail price from an existing distributor.

How much can I earn as a distributor

One of the most rewarding aspects of the MonaVie business opportunity is that there is no limit to your potential success. By personally building a strong business organization and working with those in your business organization to do the same, you will not only be leveraging the efforts of many, but you may also begin earning income from the efforts of many. With MonaVie, you are in control of your success.

What is the definition of “Active”

To be considered “Active,” you must purchase a minimum of 100 PV every four weeks. For example, purchasing one case of MonaVie Juice (worth 100 PV) every four weeks will keep you Active. You must be Active at 200 PV to participate in the FOB (First Order Bonus) and BOB (Bulk Order Bonus) programs.

What is the definition of “Qualified”

To be Qualified, you must have at least one personally enrolled and Active distributor on both your left and right legs. You must be Qualified to earn commissions, except retail and BOB.

If I go “inactive” by not ordering product, what happens to my volume and my organization

All accumulated Group Volume will be reset to zero; however, once you reactivate with a product purchase of at least 100 PV, you will once again begin to accumulate Group Volume as products are purchased in your downline organization. You will not lose your organization by going inactive.

Why am I considered Active for a four-week period rather than for an entire month

Because we pay commissions weekly (as opposed to monthly), our definition of “Active” is a four-week rolling period (instead of an entire month).

If I'm an Active and Qualified distributor, what commissions am I eligible to earn

You are eligible to earn the First Order Bonus and Bulk Order Bonus (if Active with 200 PV), Team Commissions, Executive Check Match, and you can participate in the STAR Makers bonus.

If I enroll a distributor who places his or her first order before I place my 200 PV activation order, can I still earn a First Order Bonus

Yes, as long as you become Active in the same weekly pay period in which your new sign-up places his or her order, and become Qualified within the following three weeks.

Are all commissions and bonuses paid on a weekly basis

Yes. However, they are paid 10 days after the commission period ends.

For commission and volume purposes, when does the week begin and when does the week end

Our commission week starts on Saturday at 12:01 a.m. (MST) and ends on the following Friday night at exactly 12:00 midnight (MST).

Once I've earned commissions, when can I expect to be paid

The commission week ends on Friday night at exactly midnight (MST). Any earned commissions will be paid 10 days later, on the second Monday after the end of your commission week, by approximately 6 p.m. (MST), to your personalized MonaVie cash card. However, the first time commissions are earned, we must process your personalized MonaVie cash card; it takes approximately 7–10 business days after the end of the commission period to receive your card in the mail.

When an order is placed that generates a First Order Bonus, what percentage of the volume rolls to the upline

100 percent of the Sales Volume (SV) rolls up.

When Team Commissions are paid, what volume is deleted from my Business Center?

Any volume on both your left and right leg that was used to earn Team Commissions will then be deleted. Any unpaid volume will continue accumulating as long as you remain Active.

What is a retail customer

A retail customer is someone who purchases MonaVie products at the retail price from an existing distributor. A retail customer is not a distributor.

What is a preferred customer

A preferred customer receives a 15% discount on the retail price of MonaVie products. Preferred customers are not distributors but have enrolled in and participate in the AutoShip program.
