Update 3/2/20. One of my favorite documentaries of all time is Fat Sick and Nearly Dead. It's the story of Joe Cross, who travels the US, getting healthy by juicing and along the way, helping others do the same. It's truly an inspiring documentary that, in my opinion, bolstered a rebirth of juicing in America. Since the documentary, Joe has gone on to write a variety of books and has become an international celebrity. Recently, I became aware of Reboot With Joe Plant Protein, a pow dered supplement that can be added to the juices you make. In this review, let's look at this Reboot Protein and along the way hopefully help you decide if it's right for you. Also see the Breville Juicer Review.
What Does Reboot Mean?
As most know rebooting is the process of turning your computer (phone, tablet, etc.) off and back on again. It's meant to clear the short term memory and hopefully remove anything- applications, etc – that might be making your computer slow or causing problems.
Joe Cross was the first person I ever heard use the word reboot with respect to nutrition. As I understand it, to reboot – nutritional speaking –
is to refresh and re-train the body to get accustomed again to consuming more healthy foods. In the documentary, Joe's reboot was accomplished by juicing.

Hi Joe, I am new to your products and documentary, I am really impressed.
I am looking forward to doing the juicing however my budget right now is not allowing me this new and exiting venture.
I have done so many things to loose the weight and it still on me. I stopped eating red meat, pork, chicken a while back and have not lost a pound. I work, mother of three my husband has not had luck these days of finding work so he is at home. I still cook for them my older children are out of the home and I have one more child, down syndrome that will never leave.
I have a problem keeping her from not eating so much junk, and it’s been a struggle I am not with her 24/7 and that is where the problem lies. I would love to start juicing at least 15 days however I will have to wait until I am able. you truly are an inspiration to me thank you for doing the documentary fat,sick and dying.

Hi Yolanda, I thank you for writing but I must tell you that I am Joe Cannon – not Joe Cross, of the documentary. This is my website and I have no relationship to that Joe or his company. I simply reviewed his protein supplement, which I hope you found useful.
While I also found the Fat Sick and Nearly Dead documentary inspiring, I dont think you need to start juicing to lose weight. Remember it really is all about reducing calories. What have you been eating? chicken, meat etc, is not necessarily bad from a calorie stand point and you do need some protein as you try to lose weight. If you are still eating things like pasta, rice, cookies, cakes, muffins and things like that, Id cut back on those and focus more on eating vegetables fruits and lean protein like chicken.
Juicing can be expensive, depending on where you buy your fruits/veggies and given that your husband is out of work, Id rather you buy those foods and eat them, for now, rather than juicing them. The fiber in the foods will help you stay full, and there is lots of research on fiber helping weight loss.
I hope some of this helps Yolanda. if you have any other questions, just ask and Ill try to help.
