I have no heard of nor researched most of the things on the list, however 2 things stand out and bothered me. Xango (Mangoseen) Juice and MonaVie. How dare a MLM person send out an ignorant email for Randy Pausch to try a simple sugary berry antioxidant drink and if that would do any good at all! Scientific studies show that cancer thrives on sugar! Shame on those people for their ignorance and their greed to make money!
here is the oprah video on Randy.

It also is misleading for diabetics, as even too many natural sugars from fruits can wreak havoc.
There are no actual health studies on monavie, though there are studies on the efficacy of the acai berry and other anti-oxidents.
Where is the data on monavie? Be careful what you wish for.
If fruit sugar is so bad when why do so many people claim to go on juice fasts when dealing with cancer? Maybe Watermelon isn't high in fructose but other fruits such as apples are used in these fasts also. I don't buy the argument that natural fructose is bad for diabetics. When studies show that cancer cells thrive on sugars they're talking about acidic sugars, not ones that come from highly alkaline fruits such as watermelons. Cancer cells cannot thrive on alkaline foods.
