Being a tennis athlete is very difficult. Apart from the usual fitness regimen, the necessary vitamins and minerals are also needed to improve the performance and well-being. JuicePlus+ is one of the major players in North America and Europe in providing the right nutrition for tennis athletes. It thrives to stand on the following principles: longevity, authenticity, quality, community, simplicity and being approachable.
To know more about the company, here is an exclusive interview with Dan Holzmann, President and CEO of JuicePlus+ Company Europe
President and CEO, JuicePlus+ Company
TF: When did JuicePlus+ started? How did you become involved in the project?
DH: Juice PLUS+ first came to the European market in 1993. I began working in logistics in Switzerland and worked my way up to CEO of The Juice PLUS+ Company Europe. Along the way I opened a number of European countries and we are now expanding into Africa and the Middle East, in addition to our hugely successful operations outside of EMEA.
TF: You supported Ana Ivanovic’s initial career in tennis. What made you decide to sponsor her?
DH: To be honest I was totally naive! I took a gamble. At the time I had no idea how unlikely it was that Ana would be truly successful – she wasn’t even ranked in the top 20 in juniors when I first met her. But I was so impressed by Ana as a person that I couldn’t say “no” when I was introduced to her and asked to assist with her development. I helped professionalize things, and hired her first top coach. We have had some great times, especially when Ana reached No.1 in the world and won Roland Garros.
TF: What are the benefits of taking JuicePlus+ compared to the existing vitamins and health supplements in the market?
DH: We have the world’s most researched nutritional supplement: 36 peer-reviewed studies, published in leading scientific journals, attest to the many benefits of our capsules. Juice Plus+ capsules are a long-term investment in one’s health and are the next best thing to fruits and vegetables. We have over a million customers worldwide, enjoying the benefits of Juice PLUS+.
TF: What are the current bestsellers in JuicePlus+?
DH: Our three capsule blends – fruit, vegetables and berries – remain our No.1 bestsellers. Our Complete shake mix is also very popular, especially with those who work out and require additional protein. The protein is plant-based and it tastes great.

TF: Health supplements are very popular in Asia. Does JuicePlus+ have any plans to expand in the Asia Pacific region?
DH: Absolutely. This is one of our main goals for the next 3-5 years. Stay tuned!
TF: What are your tips for upcoming tennis athletes especially on the nutrition and wellness?
DH: I see kids starting to take their fitness and nutrition seriously at a younger age these days. That’s a good thing, as long as they are playing tennis for the enjoyment – to become a professional is really tough, and I would not encourage anyone to neglect their studies in order to become a professional unless they are already competing on the world stage. Obviously I would recommend Juice PLUS+ capsules to young athletes: probably the most common benefit I hear from our customers is the boost that the capsules give to your immune system, which is vital for sportspeople, especially those who frequently travel.
Your blog really helps out people who want to balance fitness with nutrition. I am a health buff myself and I workout a lot, but I miss out on the nutrition factor that provides nourishment to the body.
Such a interesting subject to write about. Thank you for sharing.
I’m glad to learn something new about nutrition that is available on the market today. I would love to try this and for my son too.
That would be such a great experience to interview him! I didn’t know about new nutrition thats available now!
It’s always wonderful to read interviews about people with the new the things to introduce in the market! Hope these Juice capsules works best to players
I often read articles about Health. Your blog post today just really made my day! Thanks!:)
I am so envious that you are into Tennis and at the same time you are posting about food. It seems that you are enjoying the best of both worlds. I’m sure that any sports enthusiast would find this post very useful 🙂
ohhh Juice Plus is so interesting. I am thinking of taking my weight loss program more seriously and I am looking at products to try. This might be a good one. Any chance it’s available in Bacolod?
I’ve heard a lot about Juice+ and it was interesting to read thoughts from the CEO of the company. It seems like it is a diet that has worked for a lot of people indeed.
That’s great to hear about both successful situations; Ana Ivanovic and Dan Holzmann. If I were to ever get my hands on one of these, I would probably choose all three of the blends.
It’s always great to know/learn something from a successful person like Dan.
Juice Plus+ is a great supplement. I’ve been taking it for years. It’s like eating bushels of veggies and fruits every day but so much easier.
Heyyyy. How does it feels like interviewing himmm? Also heard a lot from Juice+!
I hope this becomes available to people everywhere. I take them every day, and they make me feel so good.
This is an interesting interview to read. I have heard a lot about Juice+ over recent years.
When masters vouch for it, it must be truly beneficial. Like the interview.
This interview with Dannwas very informative. This seems like a great product.
I am glad you got the chance to meet with him! He has a lot of great stuff to share with us!
Juice+ sounds like some good stuff. I would really like to look more into too!
I realy enjoy reading this interview, which gives so much insights about JuicePlus+ . I wish it will expand to North America too.
Love that you had an interview straight from the pro! Great information, I’ve never heard about Juice+ but might have to check it out!
What a great interview. I’m always interested in learning more about the people behind the products.
I have never heard of Juice+, but it definitely is something I would consider in my diet.
i have heard a lot about juice plus. thanks for interviewing the ceo to make us more clear about the concept!
These sound like awesome supplements. That’s such an easy way to get in those extra nutrients.
That was a great interview with lots of good information about JuicePlus+. Glad to see they have plans to expand into the Asia market as well.
IT is interesting to learn about all the different companies and the people that run them. Thanks for sharing the info.
I think that’s a great health product. Juices are great for delivering health-giving nutrients.
Sounds like a brilliant range to boost your health and performance in a quick and easy format.
Nnniiiiccceeee…it is so good to know of people like Dan that literally had a heavy brick on the success of stars like Ana and the game of tennis, as a whole! Thanks for sharing about them.
This is such a great interview! I’m going to have to check out JuicePlus.
It was cool to hear about his story and some insights from his perspective. Thanks for sharing!
I’m always looking for ways to boost my immune system (especially these days). I hadn’t heard of Juice Plus+, but now I’m excited to give it a try!
I love tennis and am always looking for solutions to boost my immunity. Happy to learn about nutrition from you. I would love to try this for myself.
Tennis is one of the tough sports and I respect many athletes’ dedication and passion. Dan Holzmann is part of Ivanovic’s success, and without his initial help, maybe her success went sideways.
What a great interview. You must have been so excited to talk to Dan Holzmann. Juice Plus really is amazing.
This is a very interesting product, especially nowadays when we need something to boost up our immune system. I gotta share and try this!
What a great interview! I always love learning peoples stories!
