No Jillian your current recipe has NOT been tested!!

While credentials are important, what is 
more important is having verifiable and repeatable data to support your claims.  You Jillian, have none.  Personal anecdotes, are not data.  A literature review is not research.

For example, your information is not aligned with what current science states in regard to limb regrowth, or its potential.  You go on a spiel about how blood flow isn't reaching the deepest parts of ones body, or stump in this case. Research has shown that it is a lack of c-Answer not blood flow.
When scientists blocked a newly identified gene that can drive the growth of tadpole tails or limbs, of frogs, they found that the organs could not regrow anymore. From this, researchers hypothesized that losing the ability to regenerate might have been the result when warm-blooded animals lost this gene during their evolution.

Called c-Answer and mentioned in the journal Cell Reports, scientists first explored for similar DNA patterns in warm-blooded species, such as chicks, and recorded what made a gene look different. Next, they selected cold-blooded specific genes and explored it for unknown transmembrane proteins. They named it c-Answer.
You're not even in the same ball-park with your hypothesis!!  “Dealing with the pain process” (ie explosive diarrhea) will not create an environment for limb regrowth, no matter how much you believe it will.  Just because you believe something to be true, does not make it so.

And BTW “the possibility is possible.”  WTF does that even mean?

Your critics are not imbalanced, as you state, because they ask for evidence of your claim.  That is how science works.  You don't get to make your own rules.

Oh and BTW,,, science based medicine has or is exploring the notion of limb regrowth. (One of many.)

But I digress, as my point is this,,,
No Jillian your current recipe has NOT been tested!!

On May 17, 2018 you posted this,
My sample of my juice going to be sent to the lab for probiotic count
Mixture of cabbage and kale




 According to you.

It has been pointed out to you by numerous critics, myself included,
1] This is but one sample from one batch, now 2 years  removed from your current recipe. 

IOWs, your recipe has changed since this test.  The results are no longer valid in demonstration of any claims made by you based on said result.
2]  As you have demonstrated numerous times, there is no standardized recipe.  Every batch will vary.  Therefore every test result will vary.
The fact that you do not speak of having to “burp” your concoction, nor do you tell your minions to do so, demonstrates that your juice is not fermented.  CO2 is a by-product of the fermentation process - no CO2 no ferment.
3]  You tout the 13 million CFUs as something to be proud of.
A colony forming unit (CFU)  is used as a measure of the number of microorganisms present in or on surface of a sample. Colony forming units may be reported as CFU per unit weight, CFU per unit area, or CFU per unit volume depending on the type of sample tested.
Simply put, a CFU only tells you how many critters (good or bad) are in your sample.  It does not delineate what is in your sample.   That would take further testing, such as 16S rDNA sequence analysis to confirm the specificity of the LAB.

One has to keep in mind that although lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are used widely as starter cultures in the production of fermented foods, they are also responsible for food decay and deterioration.  
4] The standard dosage for a probiotic is between 1 billion and 10 billion CFUs daily.  Your slop is not even close!
The standard dosage of probiotic (of which there are over 500 strains) typically ranges between 1 billion and 10 billion CFUs daily for adults.
As a general rule, a probiotic should provide at least 1 billion CFUs (colony forming units, i.e., viable cells), with doses typically ranging between 1 billion and 10 billion CFUs daily for adults. This is explained in the Probiotic Supplements Review, which includes ConsumerLab.com's tests of popular probiotics. There are some exceptions to this: Doses as high as 100 billion CFUs or more are used in some situations, while doses for children and infants are sometimes below 1 billion.

The specific dose will depend on the probiotic strain and the purpose for which it is taken. You can look this up in the "What to Consider When Using" section of the Review, where you will find the dose and strain(s) used in preventing/treating antibiotic-associated diarrhea, IBS, anxiety, depression, allergies, and more. Be aware that probiotic supplements may contain a single type of organism or a combination of many types.

Combinations have been more effective in some situations, but single strain products have also been effective, so it is not clear that one is better than the other. Details about the clinical studies are found in the "What It Does" section of the Review.
5]  Based upon your lab test, you have no idea of exactly what is in your drink.  Contrary to your belief, strain specificity is important.  And it is a belief as you have no evidence stating otherwise.
Third, the probiotic candidate must be a taxonomically defined microbe or combination of microbes (genus, species, and strain level). It is commonly admitted that most effects of probiotics are strain-specific and cannot be extended to other probiotics of the same genus or species. This calls for a precise identification of the strain, i.e. genotypic and phenotypic characterization of the tested microorganism.
6] Current research suggests that utilizing a probiotic is or may be unnecessary in healthy individuals. IOWs people without Crohn's, Celiac, IBS, diarrhea cause by antibiotics, etc.
  • A closer look at the science underlying microbe-based treatments, however, shows that most of the health claims for probiotics are pure hype. The majority of studies to date have failed to reveal any benefits in individuals who are already healthy. The bacteria seem to help only those people suffering from a few specific intestinal disorders. “There is no evidence to suggest that people with normal gastrointestinal tracts can benefit from taking probiotics,” says Matthew Ciorba, a gastroenterologist at Washington University in St. Louis. “If you're not in any distress, I would not recommend them.” Emma Allen-Vercoe, a microbiologist at the University of Guelph in Ontario, agrees. For the most part, she says, “the claims that are made are enormously inflated.”
  • Evidence from clinical trials is mixed and often of low quality, but findings from meta-analyses suggest that probiotics can provide benefits in the treatment of some conditions, such as infectious and antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. As such, taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment is an increasingly common practice. However, two studies recently reported in Cell question whether taking highly concentrated supplements of so-called good bacteria aids the recovery of normal gut flora.

7]  You have not explained the bio-mechanical pathways in which JJ is alleged to work.  IOWs, purging out poop isn't gonna cure or treat squat.  May take care of constipation, but that's it.

According to Metchnikoff, the bacterial community residing in the large bowel of humans was a source of substances toxic to the nervous and vascular systems of the host. These toxic substances, absorbed from the bowel and circulating in the bloodstream, contributed to the ageing process. Gut bacteria were thus identified as the causative agents of “autointoxication.” The offending bacteria were capable of degrading proteins (putrefaction), releasing ammonia, amines, and indole, which, in appropriate concentrations, were toxic to human tissues. Metchnikoff inferred that low concentrations of toxic bacterial products could escape detoxification by the liver and enter the systemic circulation,,,
8]  Last but not least you have no evidence your concoction is a probiotic.  Simply put, it take 3 days for the lactobacillus colonies to form. Bare minimum is 10 days, dependent upon  salinity and temperature. 

FYI, don't blame DrPhil for your failure.  If you were not prepared, then you never should have agreed to do the show.  The onus for a piss-poor presentation is on you; not Phil, not Jeff,,, you.
