Rachel having become pregnant, followed by Edmund Burke having been killed by a bus shortly after Juliet expressed that "Wish" may be evidence that Juliet shares Walt’s wish-fulfilment Gift.
She knows that (prior to Ben’s tumour) that the Island is/was cancer-free.
Male sperm count is five times higher on the Island than elsewhere
Women who become pregnant on the Island die before their third trimester
Jacob is a great and powerful wizard, able to cure (and therefore inflict) cancer and appendicitis - among other wonders.
The Sonic Fence can repel Smokey

The implications of a newly-arrived fertility doctor receiving Martial Arts and Weapons training include the likelihood that there are on-Island pre-crash Bad Guys ... the other Others.
Free Will is only available on the Island. Off the Island, Free Will no longer exists. The lives of off-Islanders (including all the misery suffered off-Island by our Losties) have been scripted for them by Someone - possibly Jacob. On the Island, people have to/can make Choices. If Juliet were to have explained this Fact of Life to Sayid the Former Torturer and Ford the Murderer, her life might indeed be forfeit.
Having suffered her fourth shoulder dislocation during "Left Behind" implies that she’s been through three previous Time Loops - and remembers that fact. She may therefore know (some of) what’s ahead for the Losties. If this is correct, it could be worth her life. If she knows about up-coming Lostie injuries and deaths and doesn’t try to prevent them, it might annoy the uninitiated.
Karma and the wisdom of "banking" Good Deeds
The above nuggets do not include the fact that Claire had been implanted with a sick-making device and that Juliet’s Lostie Beach Mission included testing Sun and Kate for pregnancy.
