Whenever a new product like Zija comes out onto the market; especially products where large numbers of consumers start having amazing results, the age old question seems to pop into everyone's mind... Is this for REAL? Or is it just Fiction? Can a product like Zija REALLY be that good?

Like any other health and wellness product, individuals that have a totally "clean bill of health", that eat right, exercise and get a good night's sleep, may not see a significant difference from using Zija; in fact a few people we talked to said they didn't feel anything significant at all when they tried Zija.

But it was the other individuals that really inspired us. The ones with stiff joints, arthritis, chronic back pain, eczema, skin conditions and other ailments that really gave us some inspiration to at least want to try Zija for ourselves. Since the product is not available in retail stores, I set out on a mission to try and locate it online, so for those of you that are interested in trying it for yourselves, click here and enjoy!

Four days later, I had a few cases of Zija in my hands. I opened up a case, gave a can a shake, cracked open the can and took my first GULP!

Very light! I thought! Tastes a bit like pineapple juice with a hint of green tea. It's best consumed directly out of the can and very tasty.

Personally I would refrain from pouring it into a glass....especially for the first time tasting. Since Zija has ingredients that include the leaves of the tree, it's appearance in a glass is not visually appealing for the first time tester. But from the can? Yum! Two gulps and its down. Very refreshing!

After almost two months of consuming the product, I have to admit, I am pretty impressed. The product not only tastes great, but provides the body with 92 verifiable nutrients, 46 anti-oxidants, 36 naturally occurring anti-inflammatories, 20 amino acids including 9 that the body needs to sustain life, AND Omegas 3, 6 and 9. Almost hard to believe that one product could be packed with so much nutritional PUNCH!

So I got onto Skype with my "Sweden friend", told him about Zija and in no time flat, I had a case of Zija on a plane to the other side of the world, anxious to see his response.

"It NO WORKS!" He tells me.....

Hmmmmmm. Maybe the air is thinner in Sweden or he doesn't have the chronic back pain that I've had for over 25 years of my life.  But all I know is, I feel great! And I have to say...if I had three thumbs, I'd surely give it THREE THUMBS UP!

The story of Zija began with one man viewing a Discovery Channel documentary on a plant grown in far away lands. As he watched, his interest piqued when he observed people literally being sustained by consuming small amounts of this miracle plant.

So he began asking the right questions and the answers arrived from the likes of scientists, biochemists, and pharmacologists the world over. The man asking the questions was Ken Brailsford, a super achiever in the nutritional supplement industry, the founder of Zija and the father of herbal encapsulation.

With two other hugely successful nutrition companies to his credit, he knew this plant was a true nutritional miracle. Mr. Brailsford immediately recognized the potential of the practically unknown Moringa plant.

Fueled by the desire to share this miracle plant with the world, he dug deeper. He enlisted the research skills of medical professionals and found stacks of supporting research. The findings were overwhelming. And, with decades of research and studies, the Zija team knew that it was time for the world to learn about Moringa - the "Miracle Tree".

 Surfing through the company's website, you will find some interesting information on Moringa Oleifera and on Zija.
The company describes Zija as an all-natural beverage blended from a miracle plant called Moringa, considered by many to be the most nutrient-rich plant ever discovered.

They also say that Zija is overflowing with cell-ready nutrients, antioxidants, minerals, omega oils and vital proteins. Zijaapparently is the first, and only, company to channel Moringa's dramatic nutritional properties into a refreshing, nourishing beverage to help you maintain a healthy, active lifestyle. Zija gives you balance and variety as nature intended.

I found it interesting that Zija is a fusion of all natural ingredients, including 30 grams of organically harvested Moringa leaf, fruit and seed. Together, the synergistic effect of Z-atin and the proprietary blend of Moringa create a delicious tasting beverage that is convenient, on-the-go, and easy to sample.

The formulator of the product, Russ Bianchi, who is amongst one of the most renowned formulators in the world, says that "There is no better liquid beverage or supplement for beneficial long-term health currently on the market that gets anywhere near Zija quality."

After drinking it now for a few months, I would have to agree with Russ.

One of the things I found most interesting about this Zija product is the way it has been formulated for bioavailablity and easy absorption in the body. Just one serving of Zija per day provides you with vital antioxidants, minerals, omega oils, and essential amino acids.

Using science, not fiction, Russ Bianchi developed the proprietary Zija beverage to contain efficacious levels of 90 plus cell-ready nutrients. This patent pending formulation delivers multiple anti-aging and anti-inflammatory compounds that vitalize the mind and body.

The science and quality control that goes into making Zija is the reason the company claims they have the premier natural beverage in the wellness industry today. Zija provides you with a balanced, convenient, approach to your nutrition.

Why should people drink Zija anyway? Well according to the company, these are the top 10 reasons to drink Zija:

The natural beverage industry is currently the fastest growing segment of the wellness industry. And, it is the largest portion of the industry to pull talent from the "talent pool".

When I first started following this story, I was more curious about the product and it's benefits than I was about the business.

However, over the past few months I have watched one of my friend's businesses grow from a cold start to almost 1000 affiliates throughout North America.

Although there are no real significant profit margins to made between the wholesale and retail pricing, the demand for the product at wholesale direct on an international scale, I feel, will be enough to take this company into the hundreds of millions of dollars in annual sales.

I am impressed with what I have seen so far and each day I continue to be amazed at the professionalism of this corporation and management team.

After a careful review, I would have to say Zija is definitely more FACT than FICTION!  But YOU BE THE JUDGE! Try it for yourself and then submit your comments below.
