Dear Sirs:
Re:

We have acted as Canadian counsel to Juva Life Inc., a British Columbia corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the Company's filing of an offering statement on Form 1-A filed on the date hereof (the "Offering Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") pursuant to Regulation A under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").  The Offering Statement contemplates the offering (the "Offering") of up to 40,000,000 units (the "Units") of the Company to raise an aggregate total of US$20,000,000.
Each Unit consists of (i) one common share in the capital of the Company, with no par value per share (each, a "Share"), for an aggregate of up to 40,000,000 Shares, and (ii) one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"), for an aggregate of up to 20,000,000 Warrants.  Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a "Warrant Share") at an exercise price of US$0.75 per Warrant Share, and is exercisable starting from the date of issuance until any time prior to 5:00 pm (Vancouver time) on the date that is 18 months from the date of issuance.
