“Disease-consciousness and health-consciousness are exact opposites. Health consciousness is the positive approach to body care, while disease consciousness is the negative. It is utterly impossible to think of two separate conditions at one and the same time, so, while you are disease conscious, you cannot think about health-building. Healthconsciousness, on the other hand, guides your thoughts to consider ways and means of building health.”

~ A Study Course in Nutrition by Forrest Shaklee Sr., DC, DD





New to supplements? Start here…

According to the Council for Responsible Nutrition, 77% of Americans regularly take supple-ments (up 12% from 2010). And with more people focused on improving their health and fitness, vitamin and supplement use has risen dramatically. In fact, the nutritional supplement industry observed its highest growth in over 2 decades, with a 12.1% increase in 2020.Why?

While the medical and scientific communities used to say that taking supplements was a waste of money, overwhelming research now indicates that, in fact, supplementation provides
vast health benefits for nearly everyone.

Still, many people are not only confused about which supplements they should take, they worry about safety concerns surrounding of a lot of them. In fact, a landmark research
study published in the Journal of the American Neutraceutical Association reported that 97.5% of nutritional supplements are labeled with incorrect information and/or filled with toxic ingredients. No wonder people are confused!



How do I begin?

Good question! Most people start slow… with just a few supplements like…

____  Vitalizer and Energizing Soy Protein or Life Shake. Vitalizer provides a great foundation of over 80 bioavailable nutrients to feed your cells into health.

Then add…

____  NutriFeron and Triple Defense Boost… for immune health
____  Vivix… for a long, healthy life
____  Herb-Lax and Optiflora DI… for digestive health
____  Any other targeted supplements you need

Why Supplement?



How was your supplement made?

Contrary to what you may have heard, dietary supplements are not all the same. And over the years, this fact has surfaced in startling news stories about mislabeling, contamination, and deception:

⇒⇒  In February 2015 the New York Attorney General said popular store brands labeled as medicinal herbs were checked for DNA genetic fingerprinting from GNC, Walmart, Target and Walgreens… and they flunked. Ginseng was found to be little more than ground garlic and rice; Ginko biloba was powdered radish and wheat; St. John’s wort was cheap houseplant fillers, and; Valerian root was powdered peas and beans.

⇒⇒  In January 2015, a federal court in California issued an injunction shutting down a manufacturer of dietary supplements for failing to verify the identity of every dietary ingredient prior to using the ingredient and that their dietary supplements were misbranded.

⇒⇒  In December 2019, a New York federal district court permanently enjoined several New York companies from “distributing dietary supplements because the supplements were adulterated and misbranded.”

⇒⇒  In February 2020, a study published in the JAMA Network Journal suggested that an alarmingly high percentage of bodybuilding products sold online are mislabeled and contain unapproved drugs.

Scary, isn’t it? So how do you make sure that the nutritional products you put in your body are not only safe, but contain what they’re supposed to, and… are effective? First, consider…

Raw Materials

Supplement ingredients can be derived from plant or animal products, or produced synthetically in a laboratory. Most commercial supplements are made from synthetic vitamins, which are cheaper and easier to produce than natural derivatives. So vitamin A may be synthesized from acetone, and vitamin C from keto acid. While there may be no chemical difference between the purified vitamins derived from plant or animal sources and those produced synthetically, there is a definite metabolic difference in the way cells recognize and utilize them. Since the body was designed to metabolize food, which do you think will work better to produce health… a naturally-sourced supplement from food or a synthetic vitamin?

Quality Control

The standards under which a vitamin or mineral is manufactured vary greatly from one company to another. Quality standards affect how and whether a supplement is absorbed and utilized by the body. In fact, a manufacturer does not have to prove the safety and effectiveness of a dietary supplement before it is sold.

Clinical Trials

Because it’s an exhaustive and expensive process, most supplement companies do not conduct clinical trials to prove their products work and… most have never had a single scientific paper accepted for publication.

So… wouldn’t you rather take safe, pure, clinically tested, natural, bioavailable, 100% guaranteed food supplements from the number one nutritional company in the world? Wouldn’t you rather take Shaklee?

Life-changing products from Shaklee!

Once in awhile, you come upon a product that is so unique… so superior… that it actually changes your life!

This happens all of the time to people who try Shaklee products! While not every Shaklee product has “life-changing” properties, here are a few that do…

Herb-Lax

Herb-Lax is a gentle, natural laxative formulated with 9 herbs that can give relief to those troubled by constipation and gastric distress. Herb-Lax can help to cleanse the entire body of toxins… without being harsh or creating a dependency like chemical laxatives can. In fact, it is said that Dr. Shaklee sometimes advised people to take Herb-Lax every day for 30 days before beginning any other supplement to clean out the digestive tract first.

NutriFeron

The only supplement on the market that stimulates the body’s natural production of interferon, NutriFeron could possibly be the best immune system booster available today! NutriFeron can help protect you from developing many debilitating disease processes including chronic fatigue syndrome, herpes, hepatitis, influenza, multiple sclerosis, cancer and even HIV and AIDS.

Alfalfa Complex

Known as The Father of All Foods and King of the Plant World, alfalfa has the greatest variety and largest amount of nutrients of any known plant! Packed with vitamins, minerals, protein, enzymes and microminerals, alfalfa is also nature’s richest source of chlorophyll, a powerful body cleanser, detoxifier and deodorizer.

While there are many alfalfa products on the market, none compare to Shaklee Alfalfa Complex. Using the very best alfalfa harvested at the peak of nutrient potency and enzymic activity, Alfalfa Complex is processed at very low heat to maximize it’s bioavailability.

Vivix

If you want a supplement that can help you feel years younger and live years longer, Vivix is it! Formulated after years of scientific research, Vivix

♦♦  Prevents and repairs DNA damage
♦♦  Is the purest resveratrol product on the market
♦♦  In laboratory studies, Vivix ingredients have been shown to positively impact the four key mechanisms of cellular aging and in fact, is 13X more powerful in slowing AGE protein
