Shaklee products on Amazon.com January 22, 2013

Let me say at the start that I am a BIG fan of Amazon and buy many products through this amazing service, BUT having said that I am having trouble figuring out why anyone would purchase Shaklee products through Amazon when they could go through Authorized Shaklee distributors and in most cases get the product at a better price, with no mark up, NEW product and not expired etc.Keep in mind that not everything you buy on Amazon.com is actually sold by Amazon. Read the fine print to see if an item ships from an external vendor (it’s noted on the item description). If an item doesn’t come directly from the Internet giant, you’ll be subject to the policies of that other company — which might have longer shipping times and less helpful service,Third party sellers also set their own prices,  and so what they charge may not be as competitive as items Amazon sells itself. In the following few paragraphs I will outline why I think most people would be better off using an authorized Shaklee Distributor to buy Shaklee products versus going through Amazon. First in the interest of full disclosure it’s important to point out that I am a Shaklee Independent Distributor:So to get to the point, below are the reasons that I think most people would be better off buying Shaklee products directly through an Authorized Shaklee Distributor. 1.     Shaklee does NOT allow it’s distributors to sell through Amazon or any other online auction service, So if you buy product on one of these services you are NOT buying from an authorized Shaklee Distributor. At least not one in good standing. 2.     Since the product can not come directly from Shaklee as it would if you bought it through an authorized Shaklee distributor, it is almost certainly an older product than it would be if you purchased through an authorized Distributor. To be clear the way Shaklee works is that when you place an order through an authorized distributor, the product that you receive comes directly from Shaklee to you with no stop in between.  When buying through Amazon that is not possible.  The product is shipped to a customer of Shaklee from there ??? and then listed on Amazon and sold again.  The product can NOT be shipped from Shaklee as they would quickly shut that down so the product you receive comes from (Anyones guess) and you can’t even be sure it’s actually a Shaklee product. 3.     Assuming that the product is actually a Genuine Shaklee product and not expired or tampered with, it would still be impossible for a seller on Amazon to offer the product at the same price that you could buy it from an Authorized Shaklee distributor since the fees that Amazon Charges must come out of the price that the Amazon Seller charges as well as Two shipping charges.  One from Shaklee to the seller and one from the seller to you. 4.     Amazon has a great guarantee but not everyone is aware that Shaklee has a 100% satisfaction guarantee for products purchased through authorized distributors as well. Conclusion: So to clarify you could buy directly through an authorized Shaklee distributor with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, Get the products in a sealed box, directly from Shaklee or take your chances with possibly counterfeit or tampered with product possibly outdated, almost certainly old product and at a higher price.  And if the price is not higher the big question has to be WHY?  Most sellers are in business to make money and with the Shipping, amazon fees packaging etc.  If the product is real it MUST be more expensive.

Cheap Vitamins | You get what you pay for… December 17, 2012

Cheap Vitamins | You get what you pay for… Find a company and Distributor that you can trust. It’s very important to use only Top rated vitamins for your health and that of your family.  Why are some Vitamins rated higherthan others?  If you want to pick the best multi vitamins and supplements this information will help you to find the best products and the best company to go with. Common issues with Multi Vitamins: • The nutritional supplement industry is essentially unregulated – there are no serious government approved vitamins ratings • This produces standards varying from unacceptable to outstanding – and everything in between • A safe rule to follow is Caveat Emptor – Let the Buyer Beware • Many companies do not have qualified PhD health researchers and little or no published studies to back up their claims. • Many formulations are not based on good medical and scientific research – this results in incorrect ingredients and/or incorrect ratios of ingredients • Independent test has shown that 7 out of 10 prenatal vitamins did not even dissolve properly – if they don’t your body can’t absorb them properly • A study at University of Maryland showed that 2/3rd of prenatal multivitamins tested didn’t release their folic acid to USP standards J Pharm Assoc (Wash) 1997 • Un-dissolved vitamins and minerals pass through the body and have been found plugging drains, some with the brand name still legible – these are not top rated vitamins • Independent test have shown that the majority of Gingko Biloba and Saw Palmetto products tested do not meet industry standards for the active ingredient and several contained no trace of the active ingredient – clearly these are not top rated vitamins because they are not pharmaceutical grade vitamins • Most multivitamins and minerals don’t contain the essential ingredients for optimal health • Most don’t have the most beneficial ratio of ingredients • Most products are not tested for potency and purity – why is that? • Most companies have minimal or very low quality control processes and standards • Many manufacturers produce products only to the RDA (far too low for optimal health) • Most manufacturers use less expensive and less bioavailable forms of specific ingredients • Many manufacturers do not provide an expiration date Product Quality Control: Quality control consists of a series of labs, detailed written instructions of all practices to be followed at every stage of production, control measures, testing measures for raw materials and for product at various stages of production, immediately after production and near the expiration date for each batch of each product. If there is not good, serious quality control, you don’t get top rated vitamins. Products that lead in vitamin ratings need serious care and attention to each of these stages of formulation and manufacture. • Strict procedures developed and tested  to ensure that each tablet of the new product line will be identical in potency and purity to each other tablet of that line These are the main points of a superior quality control process for top rated vitamins Vitamin ratings will be high for such products, provided of course that they do contain all the needed ingredients (in their most bioavailable form) in the correct ratios. You will find much more on this topic in Multi-Vitamin Comparison (opens new window). • Buy only the top rated vitamins and minerals that have optimal levels of all the essential nutrients. RDA levels don’t cut it, but those are the levels which at least 95% of manufacturers use. The RDA levels were developed to prevent diseases like scurvy and rickets. Guess what, they worked. But they are far too low levels to prevent today’s degenerative diseases; heart, cancer, stroke, osteoporosis, arthritis, diabetes, asthma, Alzheimer’s and many others. REMEMBER CAVEAT EMPTOR BUYER BEWARE Make sure that you and your children eat well.  Only take only top rated vitamins  – nutritional supplements with a full cascade of antioxidants – a symphony of antioxidants. If you’re interested you can see a product line of top rated vitamins and minerals that meets these standards by Clicking Here (opens new window). Now that you know all this, shouldn’t you choose top rated vitamins and minerals like these? (Opens new window.)  Contact Us

Shaklee product review | B-Complex (Kosher, Gluten Free) December 11, 2012

Shaklee product review | B-Complex (Kosher, Gluten Free): The stress reliever vitamin I like to call it.  We burn our B vitamins off when under stress, drink alcohol, eat sugar and processed foods. And it’s tough to replace them with our diet so addingShaklee B complex is essential.Stress needs no introduction. Its causes are numerous, (worry, rushing, poor diet, etc.) but its effects are nearly always the same: exhaustion, weak immune system, heart trouble and anxiety. When the body is under constant stress, the body releases adrenaline, to prepare for the “flight or flee” action. This constant state of “preparedness” leaves the body exhausted and scatter brained. In which case we turn to stimulants like caffeine to keep our energy and focus up, but what stimulants do is just produce more adrenaline, that makes us more exhausted and scatter brained: a vicious cycle. The more stress you are under, the more B vitamins you use up in your body. Are you properly replacing your B vitimins?Exhaustion and Stress are something we all deal with. Being tired and stressed out comes with work, studying, watching kids, playing…basically it’s called life. But fatigue is something different. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome effects 100,000 in 250,000 people. Can you imagine being so exhausted, that not only do you not have the energy for the things you have to do, but also no energy for the things you use to love doing? Age doesn’t matter. It doesn’t get better with rest. It just goes on and on, day after day, month after month, year after year for some… Shaklee B-Complex is a “must have product”.  The B vitamins are vital for the formation of red blood cells that help the blood absorb iron and help other nutrients to the muscles. Otherwise, you become anemic, weak, scatter brained, stressed… With Shaklee B complex you’ll experience: More energy for your daily tasks without putting much though into it Better circulation Better and deeper sleeps The body is supposed to rejuvenate and if you are tired all the time, there could be a serious problem. Shaklee B-Complex provides all eight essential B vitamins necessary for converting the food we eat into energy. B vitamins are essential in the synthesis of DNA and new cells. The B vitamins (folic acid, B6, and B12) promote a healthy cardiovascular system by helping to lower homocysteine levels in the blood. When the B vitamins are taken together, like they are naturally found in food, they help the brain’s cognitive thinking to work properly and the nervous system to take it easy. I pay extra attention to supplementing B vitamins and I can always tell when I’m low: I crave caffeine and sweets. B vitamins play an important role thoughout the body contributing to heart, lung, brain, and cell functioning, DNA regulation, and fortifying the body. Shaklee B Complex offers a perfectly balanced blend of all 8 B vitamins and 100% or more of the daily requirement. Shaklee’s unique patented folic acid coating assures maximum aborption and bio-availability. B-Complex and Hair Loss:This isn’t just for you men!  Yeah it might happen to us more often but anyone can experience hair loss. In the case of men, it could be a result of age or genetics. However, many women experience hair loss as well. Young women and men that don’t even have it in their family tree. With a society that has poor health, due to poor diets, it’s no small wonder that their hair should suffer from it too. Fried and processed foods leave hair dull, brittle, and susceptible to falling out.We have done a thorough review on the B-Complex. All of the b vitamins are vital for good health and taking the Shaklee B-Complex, in its natural, balanced, and complete form is a powerhouse to be reckoned with. In the case of hair health, Folic Acid and Biotin give amazing strength to the hair follicles and shaft. With this product you will experience: Fuller hair where it started thinning* Healthier, less frizzy hair* Stronger Hair* Hair loss really doesn’t have to be a bad problem. Not when you are giving what your body (and hair) needs. How would you like to stop the hair loss you are experiencing? How would you like to thicken the hair you do have? The downside of using a lot of vitamins and protein is that your hair icould get really thick and grow so fast that you need haircuts often. Now there’s a problem so many men (and women) would love to have! We give Shaklee B Complex two thumbs up!

Shaklee product review |Vita-C (Sustained Release Vitamin C 500Mg) December 7, 2012

Shaklee product review | Vita-C  (Sustained Release Vitamin C 500Mg) Shaklee has manufactured vitamins for over 55 years. I have found Shaklee’s Vita-C to be great for anybody who has a sensitivity to regular full line daily vitamins or just wants a little extra boost of Vitamin C. I’ve tried other vitamins (Great Earth etc…) but I always felt nauseous and like I was going to throw up (sorry) when I took them , after a meal or not. And yet, at certain times, I want the benefits and insurance protection that extra vitamin C and other vitamins can give without the problems. I’ve never had a problem with Shaklee Vitamins. Read More Below… Shaklee Vita-C & The Common Cold: Labeling a cold as “common” doesn’t take the nastiness out of it. If people had a better understanding about their health, perhaps it wouldn’t be common at all. A cold can be as mild as a simple nose drip, to being a full fledged body and mind experience that puts you in bed for days. It should be known as the “inconvenient” cold. The symptoms are numerous (cough, sore throat, congestion, aches) but the cause is a weak immune system of our own making when we don’t sleep, don’t eat right, and take on more than we can handle. Vita-C Is great for colds because of its potency and the long term benefits of taking it regularly. We’ve all heard that taking vitamin C can help with colds, but has anyone ever explained why? It fights infections yes but there are so many more benefits of taking vitamin C. With this product you will experience: Shorter and less severe colds due to its immune boosting and antihistamine properties* Slowing of the inflammatory response* Less severe allergic responses* As humans, we cannot produce Vitamin C in our bodies and must constantly replenish it. Skin and Teeth Problems: Everybody wants healthy, nice looking skin and teeth. That’s why millions of dollars are spent annually on skin care and oral surgery to achieve this. Whether it is to get rid of wrinkles, acne, scars, sagging skin or weak, rotting teeth, everybody wants skin that glows and teeth that shine. But nothing beats the natural beauty of healthy skin and teeth that are nourished from within, below the surface. Shaklee Vita-C also rejuvenates the entire body, including skin and teeth. It combats bacteria helping diminish acne and balances hormones which restores the right amount of moisture to the skin. With this product you will experience: Clearer, more supple skin with the right amount of moisture* Helps restore gum tissue and tooth decay* Helps with an overall youthful appearance* Do NOT underestimate the power Vitamin C!  “What are you waiting for?” Click Here to order or read more about this amazing product from Shaklee: http://homebizcentral.org/healthy-nutrition.html http://guidetogreen.com/Products/Healthy_Nutrition.aspx Related Articles Shaklee product review | Cinch  (Weight-Loss Program) Shaklee product review | Energizing Soy Protein (Low-Fat, Non-GMO) Shaklee product review | Vitalizer Shaklee product review | Vita-Lea  (Multivitamin & Multimineral) Shaklee product review | Vivix (Resveratrol) Shaklee product review | Nutriferon  (Immune Booster) Our Favorite Shaklee Products Multi-Vitamin Comparison Top Ten Reasons To Take Shaklee Vitamin Supplements 100% Unconditional Satisfaction Guarantee How do I find a Shaklee  Distributor?

Shaklee product review | Energizing Soy Protein (Low-Fat, Non-GMO) December 6, 2012

Shaklee product review | Energizing Soy Protein 
(Low-Fat, Non-GMO)Need an energy boost during the day?  Forget about caffeine which will give you a boost but then leave you feeling sluggish.  Try Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein instead.  Soy protein is a biologically complete protein that is plant based.  It’s low in fat, cholesterol free, and full of essential amino acids.  It helps build muscle and supports the immune system.  Soy protein can even help you maintain normal cholesterol levels and promote heart health.  Energizing Soy Protein also contains soy isoflavones which can help reduce hot flashes and promote breast health. 

The powdered formula can be mixed with milk, juice, water or any one of your favorite beverages.  Three tablespoons provides 14 grams of protein, enough to give you a sustained energy lift that won’t leave you feeling like you’re riding a roller coaster.  

For more than 55 years, Shaklee Corporation has manufactured nutrition and wellness products that boast guaranteed efficacy, safety and environmental responsibility. One of the company’s popular products is its soy protein shake line, which is currently offered in four formulations for a variety of purposes. Many people drink these protein shakes for increased energy, fitness or as convenient meal replacements. Soy may affect some people negatively. In these cases, Shaklee offers a whey protein shake mix as an alternative.

Shaklee’s Energizing Soy Protein shake mix is a complete protein source containing 14 g of all nine essential amino acids. These amino acids are important because your body is unable to make them and must get them from food in order to build and repair itself. If your body does not get the essential amino acids it will begin to take protein from itself, which leads to a breakdown in muscle and other tissues. For energy, Shaklee has added five essential B vitamins, calcium and soy isoflavones to this protein mix. It is non-genetically modified, gluten-, lactose- and cholesterol-free and contains no artificial flavors, sweeteners, colors or preservatives. Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein is offered in Creamy Cocoa and Natural Vanilla flavors.  Read more below…

If you’re concerned about the nutritional content of your food, Try Shaklee, Energizing Soy Protein.A 1999 survey indicated that 87% of consumers reported changing their eating habits due to specific health concerns. Among the greatestworries were heart health and dietary cholesterol intake. The major dietary concern (reported by almost half of those surveyed) was reducing fat.  Animal protein is a major contributor to the fat in the average American diet. Americans eat plenty of protein,  but it is mostly from meat, eggs, and dairy sources, which are usually high in saturated fat and cholesterol. In contrast, Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein is high in protein, that is naturally low in fat, and naturally lactose and cholesterol free. It also provides all the amino acids, including the nine essential ones your body needs but cannot manufacture itself. Using the newest methods for assessing the quality of protein, soy protein that given the score of 1.0 — the highest rating possible and equal to that given animal proteins such as those from eggs and milk. Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein products are also good sources of calcium and iron. In addition, Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein provides naturally occurring beneficial plant compounds that are being extensively studied. Soy contains isoflavones, especially genistein and daidzein. These are intriguing to researchers because they are phytoestrogens and may be related to soy’s ability to regulate hormonal balance and deliver long-term health benefits. Some soy protein products are alcohol-processed which removes isoflavones. Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein is waterwashed to retain naturally occurring isoflavones such as genistein and daidzein. Shakleeuses only non-genetically modified (GMO) soy protein certified through an Identity preservation program (IPP). This program assures that the soy we use is tightly monitored and controlled from planting and harvesting to processing. Choose Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein: The tremendous benefits of soy protein include sustained energy, vitality, and stamina — plus the benefits of naturally occurring isoflavones compounds not present in meat or dairy foods.

Who might benefit from Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein?
• 58 million people who are concerned about heart health
• People interested in reducing their intake of the typically high-fat, high-cholesterol   animal sources of protein and supplementing their diet with a plant-based protein source that is naturally low in fat and lactose and cholesterol free
• Vegetarians or vegans looking for a high-quality protein source that contains no animal products
• People interested in the health benefits associated with consuming soy
• Anyone interested in supporting the body’s natural ability to ward off hunger and maintain energy for hoursHow Does Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein work to sustain energy?
The key to Shaklee Soy Protein’s amazing ability to help people feel energized for hours is something scientists refer to as glycemic response. Glycemic response describes the effect a food has on blood sugar. Foods like a hot-fudge sundae can cause your blood sugar to spike and then plummet rapidly. A short time after you’ve finished the last spoonful, you feel tired, irritable, and surprisingly hungry considering the number of calories you’ve just consumed. This is exactly the opposite of how you feel after a serving of Shaklee Soy Protein.

In a clinical study, subjects consumed 110 calories from carbohydrates alone and their blood sugar was measured every half hour. As expected, blood sugar shot up immediately and then quickly crashed. It’s this “rollercoaster” response that can lead to feelings of jitteriness, irritability, and hunger.

However, when subjects consumed 110 calories of Shaklee Soy Protein, the results were significantly different. Blood sugar didn’t spike, nor did it plummet. Instead, it remained essentially level. The body’s natural metabolic balance was undisturbed.

Why Choose Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein?
• 14 grams of protein per serving
• Uses only IPP-certified non-GMO soy protein
• Highest-rated protein quality
• Natural vegetarian protein source
• Naturally cholesterol free
• No saturated fat
• 1 gram of total fat per serving
• Naturally lactose free
• 50% of your daily needs for calcium
• All the amino acids,
• Water-processed to retain naturally occuring isoflavones such as genistein and daidzein
• Choice of Creamy Cocoa or Natural Vanilla flavors
• No artificial flavors, sweeteners, colors, or preservatives added
• Kosher certified

Heart Health Benefits of Soy:
A metaanalysis of 38 studies indicates that consuming protein from soy foods is linked to retaining normal cholesterol levels.

Another study suggests that soy protein may have antioxidant properties that helps protect “bad” (LDL) cholesterol from oxidizing.

Beyond the potential of soy to positively impact the cholesterol that travels through arteries, soy isoflavones may also support the healthy function of the arteries themselves.*

One study showed that menopausal women taking soy protein supplements (rich in isoflavones) experienced a significant improvement in elasticity of their arteries.

This elasticity has been shown to decline with age, a change that is viewed as a risk factor for cardiovascular health. Some scientists are predicting that these isoflavone effects may prove to be as valuable in supporting heart-healthy aging as their potential to retain normal cholesterol levels

The American Cancer Society has created guidelines for a healthy diet:
Choose most of the foods you eat from plant sources.
•Eat five or more servings of fruits and vegetables each day.

What Are Phytoestrogens and How Do They Work?
Soybeans are rich in a class of phytochemical compounds called isoflavones, particularly the phytoestrogens genistein and daidzein. Phytoestrogens are remarkably similar in molecular structure to the female hormone estrogen. They are thought to behave in the body like estrogen but at just a fraction of the strength of the powerful estrogens naturally produced by the body. Scientists suspect that it’s the relative weakness of these phytoestrogens that may actually work to support and protect our health. Body tissues that utilize estrogen for normal, healthy function contain estrogen receptors, which bind to the estrogen that circulates in the blood. Researchers have hypothesized that when a diet is rich in soy foods, phytoestrogens may bind to some of these receptors. Phytoestrogens are currently being studied for heart, bone, and breast health.

Soy and Bone Health
Americans typically think of dairy products as the best source of calcium, but there are many other good sources of calcium. In fact, Energizing Soy Protein is an excellent source of dietary calcium, providing 50% of the daily value of this important nutrient per serving. Protein from soy may also offer bone-health advantages by replacing sources of animal protein in the diet. For long-term bone health, calcium intake is only part of the story. Urinary calcium loss is another factor that contributes to a negative calcium balance. High consumption of animal proteins, which are high in sulfur amino acids, appear to be responsible for this effect.

Soy protein, which has less sulfur amino acids relative to meat and other animal protein sources, may result in less calcium being lost in the urine and help keep calcium in the skeleton. In one study, calcium excretion was found to be 30% lower when dietary protein from soy sources was compared to equal amounts of protein from beef, fish, and chicken in healthy adults consuming a constant amount of calcium.

The isoflavones in soy foods may also help support healthy bones.* A recent study showed that dietary intake of soy products containing isoflavones had a significant positive impact on bone turnover in healthy postmenopausal women.

Soy and Breast and Prostate Health
It has long been known that many soy-consuming Asian populations have better rates of breast and prostate health than do Western populations. There are many factors involved in prostate health, but a recent, large-scale population-health study suggests soy intake as one of those factors. In this study, men who reported frequently consuming soy milk (which contains isoflavones) were 70% more likely to maintain prostate health during a follow-up period, compared to the men who had little or no soy in their diet.

A recent population-health study conducted in China investigated the relationship between soy intake during adolescence and breast health later in life. After adjustments for known risk factors, higher soy food intakes reported during the teen years were associated with significantly better breast health when these women reached their pre- and postmenopausal adult years.

Researchers believe that soy intake starting at a young age and continued throughout life is linked to maintaining breast health.* Another way that soy may promote heart, breast, and prostate health is by providing protection against oxidation damage.* The soy isoflavone genistein has been shown to have antioxidant properties.

Soy and Menopause:
Cross-cultural studies of menopausal women have found that women in Japan experience a smoother transitional period than women in the West.

Soy foods are commonly consumed in Asian countries, providing an estimated 25–45 mg of isoflavones per day for the average person.

For the menopausal woman, soy has particular interest, as it is studied for both its apparent beneficial effect during menopause as well as for bone-building and helping to retain normal cholesterol levels.

Shaklee product review | Vita-Lea (Multivitamin & Multimineral) December 5, 2012

Shaklee product review | Vita-Lea  (Multivitamin & Multimineral) We have been taking Shaklee Vitamins and supplements for over 19 years and couldn’t be happier. We wouldn’t use any other brand in our home. We almost never get sick  We highly recommend Shaklee’s products. The quality is awesome. they are worth their weight in gold. We take the vitamins and eat right I’m 51 and my wife is 47 and  people can’t believe it when we tell them how old we are.  Shaklee Vitamins are a great investment into your health and well being, Read More Below… Before we started taking this product we had heard good reports about this multi-vitamin, but were not honestly expecting to notice any real difference in energy level, alertness, etc. So when we began taking these vitamins, I didn’t hold my breath for special magical physical changes, However, after about a week of taking this vitamin, I realised that I was feeling unusually perky, chipper, and awake. I had more energy and thought to myself, “Wow! I’ve felt great these past few days… what have I been doing differently?” I hadn’t been exercising. I hadn’t been eating differently. I hadn’t been drinking more water. (All of those things are on my list of changes to make… but one thing at a time!) I hadn’t even been getting more sleep. I realised that the main thing I was doing “differenly” from the past, was that I was taking Shaklee’s Vita-Lea with Iron every morning! I am more than satisfied with this multi-vitamin. I’m delighted to have found a good-quality multi-vitamin that doesn’t contain artificial colors or impossible-to-absorb nutrients. I am definitely going to continue taking this product! I recommend trying this multi-vitamin!  Read More Below…           My wife has been been hooked on Shaklee for almost 20 years. The first product she tried, the Vita Lea multivitamin by Shaklee, is a foundation for health like no other. You will be a believer if you add the Vita Lea multivitamin by Shaklee to your health regiment. Why Shaklee? Every person asks that question before they commit to using Shaklee products mainly because the products are more expensive than nutritional supplements seen in retail stores. I was wowed by the company’s higher standards of quality and testing and the fact that even in 1988 the company had spent well over 100 million dollars just on research. Today that number is about 250 million. Being a little skeptical, I started with just the foundational product for health, the multivitamin called Vita Lea. The Vita Lea Multivitamin Is In Balance: Shaklee doesn’t produce a product unless the ingredients have been tested to be free of herbicides, pesticides, and other contaminants. Through the years, I’ve seen Shaklee stop making products when they couldn’t get pure ingredients regardless of the money they would lose. Shaklee also doesn’t leave out the expensive ingredients like Biotin and fill up the tablet with vitamins that are cheaper to produce. Shaklee puts in the 23 vitamins and minerals at levels clinically proven to be in balance. I Take Vita Lea and I’m Never Sick I haven’t had a need for a family doctor for at least 10 years or longer. If I do get sick with a cold, I don’t stay sick as long as other people. I don’t take any medications and haven’t since I’ve taken Shaklee products. I contribute this success to not missing a day taking the multivitamin, Vita Lea. I do take several other Shaklee nutritional products in addition to the Vita Lea multivitamin; plus, my lifestyle and regular exercise also contribute to health. Deciding to begin and continue taking the Vita Lea multivitamin by Shaklee for the rest of your life is the best decision for health you will ever make. You will be hooked once you start enjoying continuous health all year long.   In the interest of full disclosure we are Shaklee Distributors as well  as customers.

Shaklee product review | Cinch (Weight-Loss Program) December 4, 2012

The Shaklee Cinch inch loss program is sold by independent Shaklee distributors and through Shaklee a 55 year old Natural Nutrition company based in Pleasanton California and founded in 1956 by 61-year-old chiropractor / pastor / motivational radio personality Forrest C Shaklee, who had been selling an early kind of nutritional supplement that he called “Vitalized minerals” since the age of 20. (Dr Shaklee invented the modern Multivitamin) The Theory behind Cinch:  Cinch is Shaklee’s entree into the lucrative weight loss market. The centerpiece of the program are products that contain an amino acid called leucine. Leucine cannot be synthesized in the body, but rather is obtained as a component of protein rich foods, including meats, eggs and dairy products. It is used by both fatty tissue and by muscle tissue in the human body, in the case of muscle tissue for the purpose of stimulating muscle protein synthesis. According to Shaklee, the leucine-enhanced Cinch products “help to retain 100 percent of lean muscle mass” during weight loss. For the past 55 years, Shaklee scientists and researchers have been working to bring you the best products from nature that support and improve your health. From creating one of the first non-toxic cleaning products to being the first company to be climate neutral, Shaklee has been trailblazing the way as champions of the environmental movement. At the heart of their motivation is their belief that taking care of the health of families also makes a profound difference in the health of the planet. Shaklee creates products for the home, beauty and health. One of their most notable products is the Cinch Inch Loss Plan, a regimen of protein-packed shakes, meal-replacement bars and energy-boosting teas that help you lose inches and pounds safely and effectively. The concept behind the weight loss plan is that the more muscle you have, the more efficient your metabolism will become, therefore, each of the Cinch products contain a significant dose of protein in order to help you build lean muscle mass. You can lose up to 16 pounds in 12-weeks by following the Shaklee program correctly. The California-based company sells its products through it’s network of independent distributors and online. PRO: Products contain no parabens, triclosan, sulfates, trans-fats, dyes or artificial sweeteners Shaklee is a well-established company with a more than half-century history Offers a variety of health products Packaging of products is done so with non-toxic inks and eco-safe materials Weight loss products include an organized program CON: Cinch Inch Loss Plan may not produce long-term weight loss if you don’t stick with it. Meal-replacement diets may produce feelings of diet deprivation that can lead to weight regain if you don’t stick with them. Consult with your doctor before starting any diet or exercise program.   DIET and NUTRITION: The Cinch Inch Loss Plan is a 12-week weight loss plan that promises to help you lose fat while keeping and building muscle. The magic of the Cinch Inch Loss Plan comes from the specific line of products which contain leucine, an amino acid that helps your body retain muscle mass. On the Cinch Inch Loss Plan, you consume Cinch shakes and meal bars in place of two meals, preferably breakfast and lunch which contain a mega serving of protein. In addition, Cinch energy teas can be consumed throughout the day to offer a natural energy boost. Cinch Snack Bars can be eaten in lieu of your usual afternoon or mid-morning snack and the Cinch 3-in-1-Boot supplement is also taken each day in order to supply your body with the vitamins and minerals it needs and to regulate your blood sugar. A portion and calorie-controlled dinner of your choice is allowed. The Cinch Inch Loss Plan starter kit includes everything you need to begin the weight loss plan. The kit includes shake mixes (chocolate or vanilla), nutrition bars, supplements, daily journals, a CD program guide, shaker cup, pedometer and tape measure. EXERCISE: The CinchCoach software program helps you create a fitness plan that supports your weight loss goals. You can also read articles on fitness and exercise on the Cinch website and the starter kit comes with a pedometer to encourage adding more movement to your day and a measuring tape in order to measure your weight loss progress. CONCLUSION: The Cinch Inch Loss Program created by Shaklee is a 12-week weight loss program that relies on consuming a regimented diet of Cinch shakes, teas, bars and supplements. As a meal-replacement diet, Cinch helps you lose fat while retaining and building lean muscle mass with its inclusion of metabolism-boosting protein in each product. Shaklee is a health and beauty company that has been specializing in developing and selling healthy and sustainable products since 1956. If you are looking for a controlled diet plan, one that provides you with food and tells you when to consume it, then Shaklee’s Cinch Inch Loss Plan might be just the weight loss program you need to lose weight and take control over your health once and for all.
