“PROTEIN… is the basic food of all animals. Of course, protein is found in the cells of all vegetables, too. However, as 95% of your cell structure is protein, it requires a goodly supply to make repair and build new cells. Without protein, there would be no cells. Without protein, there would be no body.
I think every human being should be vitally interested in his supply of protein, for there are many ways to weaken and alter the protein content of your food. For this reason, you must not only consider the QUANTITY of protein you eat… you must give careful consideration to its QUALITY. Protein that does not provide all of the amino acids may weaken your body structure by failing to do the complete job.“
~ A Study Course in Nutrition by Forrest Shaklee Sr., DC, DD
WOW… 40 grams of protein!
Protein is much more than a nutrient… it’s your body’s primary repair system. Every movement, thought, and heartbeat depends on it. This powerhouse nutrient fuels muscle growth, hormone balance, enzyme activity, and even detoxification. Unlike fats and carbohydrates, protein can’t be stored for later use. That’s why daily intake is crucial to maintain muscle tone, metabolic rate, and healthy aging. Research shows that adequate protein supports lean muscle retention, especially during weight loss and as we get older. It keeps you energized, curbs cravings, and promotes steady blood sugar… key factors for long-term vitality.
For the best results, choose a complete protein source backed by science and purity… such as Shaklee’s newest introduction… Sparkling Protein… with an impressive 40 grams of whey protein designed specifically for muscle maintenance and building. And… if you’re watching your weight, you’ll also love the appetite-suppressing power of this delicious, fizzy, refreshing lemon-lime beverage!
Sparkling Protein: 40g of Whey Power, 0g Sugar
Sparkling Protein highlights…
⇒⇒ Builds and maintains lean muscle for longevity with 40 g of protein + leucine. Fuels muscle repair, recovery, and growth.
⇒⇒ Naturally boosts GLP-1 (the key hormone for curbing cravings) to help you feel fuller longer, with just 160 calories and zero sugar.
⇒⇒ Over 199 quality tests performed and made with clean, grass-fed whey that’s ultra-filtered for easy digestion… it’s pure protein you can trust.
Every bubble has a purpose…
What if your afternoon energy drink actually did something good for you? Meet Shaklee Sparkling Protein™… a drink designed to refresh, restore, and redefine how you think about protein.
Inside the science
Each can starts with beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) whey protein, nature’s most efficient amino acid source. Unlike ordinary whey, BLG is rich in leucine… the amino acid that triggers the body’s muscle-building process. Shaklee adds even more leucine to strengthen this effect, supporting muscle repair, collagen health, and metabolism. Fast-absorbing and clean-tasting, BLG whey delivers lasting nourishment without heaviness.
The sparkle factor
Shaklee made it sparkling for a reason. Carbonation makes the drink light, refreshing, and… according to research… may help you feel full longer. Combined with malic acid (the same tang you taste in apples), Sparkling Protein offers brightness and balance with every sip.
Transparency you can trust
Shaklee whey protein comes from grass-fed cows raised on responsible farms, with 199 rigorous quality tests ensuring safety and purity. You won’t find artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives here… only clean, natural ingredients. Sweetened with monk fruit and stevia Reb M, it satisfies your taste buds without sugar. Even the Sparkling Protein preservative, Nagardo®, is naturally derived from edible mushroom fungi.
A functional lifestyle upgrade
Use Sparkling Protein post-workout to rebuild muscle, or enjoy it in place of your usual energy drink, coffee or snack. Instead of empty calories, you’ll get clean protein that fuels recovery and keeps you satisfied. Over time, those small daily choices… more protein, less sugar… add up to a stronger, more vibrant you.
Refreshment with a mission
Protein supports not just strength but also longevity, metabolism, and overall vitality. Shaklee Sparkling Protein makes it easy to turn hydration into a wellness habit… refreshing, purposeful, and backed by science.
Because every bubble should do something good for you!

How safe are chemical laxatives?
A laxative is defined as a substance that is used to promote a bowel movement when you are constipated.
Laxatives work by starting and stimulating peristaltic action… a wave like motion that occurs throughout your gastrointestinal tract that moves food into your stomach, through your intestines, into your colon, and out your rectum.
Chemical laxatives are habit-forming and work by desensitizing your colon. Their use can irritate nerves and muscles along the intestinal lining, interfere with digestion and adsorption, cause cramps, deplete fluids, and create other physical internal problems.
These laxatives can enlarge and seriously damage your colon when used for a long time. Eventually, after continual use, you will not be able to have a bowel movement without using them. 
Herb-Lax was one of the very first products introduced by Dr. Shaklee. Then, as now, he knew the value of gentle, natural herbs in relieving irregularity and constipation. The herbs in Herb-Lax have been used for centuries for their healing properties.
