Shaklee Videos: Shaklee 180 Find Your Why

Sunday, February 17, 2013

We're Shaklee Corporation

As the number one natural nutrition company in the U.S., we've been making people healthier for over 50 years. And we've made it part of our job to make the planet healthier along the way. We were doing it back when green was just a color and biodegradable was barely a word. In fact, as early as 1960, we made one of the first biodegradable household cleaners ever. And we were the first company in the world to obtain Climate Neutral™ certification and totally offset our CO2 emissions, resulting in a net zero impact on the environment. We do what we do because we think it's essential to do our small part as part of the movement to make people and the planet healthier. In doing so, we believe each of our contributions put together will create the major change we wish to see in the world. I want to invite you to join this wonderful company and be a part of changing the world! Join Now Click Here

Shaklee We're about shared success

Thanks to great vision and smart business practices, we're a very profitable company. But that's not the only way we measure our success. We also measure it by how many people's lives we help make better off than before. While most businesses thrive on competition, we ask the question, "Why can't success depend on sharing?" It works like this. You're rewarded for sharing healthy, earth-friendly Shaklee products with others. You're rewarded even more by helping others to do the same. So that the more successful those people become, the more you benefit. And sure, the more we benefit. Because sharing makes everyone's share more valuable. In fact, we've paid out over $3 billion in commissions. Billion with a "b." What are you waiting for? Join Now Click here But there's more to it than sharing financial reward. We're sharing products and a way of life that truly make people and the planet healthier. We believe this is the start of a revolutionary business and social model. One that will demonstrate how businesses can help solve many of the world's most pressing problems.

Shaklee is the number one natural nutrition company in the U.S. Why?

Shaklee is the number one natural nutrition company in the U.S. Why? The logical reasons are many: Over $250 million invested in clinical testing, research, and development Over 83,000 tests annually for product quality Over 100 scientific papers, 90 of them published in peer-reviewed journals Quality far beyond industry standards But the real reason is much less quantifiable. It's passion. We think health is the most important thing in the whole world. Without it, you have nothing else. So everything that goes into every Shaklee bottle is designed to make you healthy. And to do it so well you tell your friends about it. Dr. Shaklee's vision was to give people the wealth of health. We still think that's the best idea to build a company on.

My Business Is Exploding with Shaklee 180™!

Get Started Here with your Shaklee Business When I found myself a single mom with no job, no money and no direction, I was terrified. I had to move in with my parents to put a roof over my children’s heads but Shaklee 180™ has completely changed my life! In January I shared my story with 11 people and sponsored 7 new members and sold 9 Shaklee 180 Turnaround™ Kits! The most amazing part of this month is how many referrals I’ve received. I have already booked six events just from referrals! Everyone wants to participate in 3 for FREE!* As a single mother of one-year-old twins my schedule does not always allow for 180 events. But I didn’t let that stop me from sharing my own Turnaround story of losing 100 pounds** and inviting others to have their own Turnaround™ with Shaklee 180. With the help of my amazing uplines, Toni Banner (Senior Executive Coordinator, NY) and Linda Giampia-Hicks (Coordinator, NY) I created a Shaklee 180™ webinar that allows me to have 180 events without ever leaving the house! The Shaklee 180 marketing system is brilliant. I don’t have the know-how or time to be making invitations and flyers on my own and I am far from what someone would consider a sales person. But that didn’t have to be an obstacle with Shaklee 180™ because Shaklee took the work out of it. Everything I need is right at my finger tips. Beautiful e-Invitations, short videos and calls that I am able to use in lieu of fielding questions, make organizing parties, webinars and one-on-ones a breeze! And I don’t have to worry when I host a party that I might not say the right things or be able to convey just how awesome the 180 program is because all I have to do is be a gracious host and press play on the awesome Turnaround™ Today DVD! Literally, anyone can do this. And the best thing about the 180 marketing tools is that they have increased my closing rate! That is something to get REALLY excited about! I now have the income I need to provide for my children. We are apartment hunting and I am having a blast doing it! And I now have the freedom to dream about what the future holds, not worry about it. I became a Director on FastTRACK in just one month, my points toward the Dream 2013 Incentive trip are multiplying daily, I’m sponsoring new people and I am musing over which car I am going to buy with the Shaklee car payment I intend to earn in the very near future! There is no doubt in my mind that the Shaklee 180 program will help make my FastTRACK dreams come true!*** Get Started Here with your Shaklee Business

Letter from Dr. McManus: Vitamin D and Calcium

Click here and Order Shaklee and change your life The Institute of Medicine (IOM) just released the report “Dietary Reference Intakes for Calcium and Vitamin D” that establishes higher recommended intake levels for vitamin D. The new Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for children and adults ages 1–70 has been increased to 600 IU per day, and the RDA for those ages 71 and older has been raised to 800 IU per day. The Tolerable Upper Intake Level was raised from 2,000 to 4,000 IU per day for adults. Calcium intake RDAs increased only slightly, with a range of 700–1,300 mg per day, depending on age and sex. The full report can be accessed at http://www.iom.edu/Reports/2010/Dietary-Reference-Intakes-for-Calcium-and-Vitamin-D/Report-Brief.aspx. We recognize that the goals of the IOM are to make broad-based recommendations for the entire population and to develop reference values that serve to guide nutrient guidelines for the U.S. and Canada. We applaud the IOM for updating the vitamin D and calcium nutritional reference values established in 1997 for the potential far-reaching benefits to public health, but we also believe that such modest adjustments in recommended intakes may underserve the many population groups who are at potential risk for low intakes of calcium and/or vitamin D. We also want to take this opportunity to reiterate that the Shaklee mission is to support optimal health for everyone, and in this case, we believe the potential benefits of calcium and vitamin D supplementation go well beyond simple nutritional adequacy and bone health. Scientific research links vitamin D inadequacy to an increased risk for certain cancers, as well as cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and diabetes—and higher intakes of vitamin D may help reduce the risk of developing these diseases. These are precisely the reasons we conducted our own extensive review of the scientific literature and sponsored two independent vitamin D research studies. We also recently adjusted our individual vitamin D intake recommendations based on an individual’s risk factors for vitamin D insufficiency. It has been estimated that as many as 80% of Americans may have “insufficient” blood levels of vitamin D, and there are many reasons why low vitamin D levels seem to be commonplace today. The season or calendar month is a major risk factor for vitamin D insufficiency because sunlight during the winter months is less efficient at triggering vitamin D production in the skin. The risk for vitamin D insufficiency rises as sunscreen use and time spent indoors increase. The geographical latitude of your residence is another determinant of sun exposure, and those with darker skin are less efficient at converting sunlight to vitamin D. Other factors that can increase risks for vitamin D inadequacy include increasing age, increasing body mass index, lack of exercise, and limited intake of fish and other vitamin D-rich foods in the diet. While we support the IOM for the long-awaited adjustments to the calcium RDAs, increases to the vitamin D RDAs, and the increased Safe Upper Levels of Intake (UL) for vitamin D, we also remain committed to individualized and potentially higher vitamin D intake recommendations based on an individual’s unique vitamin D risk-factor profile. For more information about calcium, vitamin D, and your health, talk with your doctor or health care professional to discuss the steps you should take to achieve optimal calcium and vitamin D intakes. To obtain an individual vitamin D intake recommendation from Shaklee Health Sciences based on your own risk-factor profile, take the Vitamin D-Ology questionnaire at http://www.shaklee.net/members/articles/top_news/VitaminD_quiz Click here and Order Shaklee and change your life Sending warmest regards, Dr. Jamie McManus, M.D. Chairman, Medical Affairs & Health Sciences Shaklee Corporation

February is American Heart Month

February is American Heart Month and our nation’s annual reminder to take care of the most important and perhaps most neglected organ in the human body. But of course at Shaklee, we believe that a heart-healthy diet and lifestyle should be a year-round, life-long effort, this month, next month and always. Unfortunately, most of us know someone who has had heart disease or stroke. Heart disease is the number one killer in the United States and it is estimated that a person dies every four minutes from some form of cardiovascular disease. In addition, these conditions are leading causes of disability and decreased quality of life. But, there is good news; up to 80 percent of heart disease is preventable. That means the power to have a healthy heart is in your hands and even small changes in your lifestyle can have a big impact. Although we can’t change some risk factors, such as age and heredity, many factors—including cholesterol, blood pressure and obesity—can be modified, thus significantly lowering the risk of heart disease. To help you learn more about these risk factors, we have three brief articles from Shaklee Health Sciences to help you start taking better care of your heart, or helping someone else do the same.

Why control your weight?

Shaklee 180 is the answer try it and watch the pounds fall off CLICK HERE TO ORDER NOW What is being overweight? Overweight and obesity are both defined by Body Mass Index or BMI (which is a ratio of weight to height). A BMI between 25 and 30 places someone in an overweight category and 30 or higher is considered obese. Why control your weight? The classifications of overweight and obese are not simply labels; there is a dramatic increase in the likelihood of disease as people increase their BMI, such as: •Coronary artery disease (CAD) •Certain cancers •High blood pressure •High cholesterol and triglycerides •Osteoarthritis •Sleep apnea •Stroke •Type 2 diabetes The cost of being overweight Obesity itself is not what causes the harm; it is the diseases that are associated with obesity that cause the harm. The costs of these diseases and syndromes are enormous, and that doesn't even begin to calculate the personal, physical, and emotional problems associated with increased BMI. •Obese people are expected to live 2-4 years less than someone with a healthy weight; the extremely obese (BMI over 40) have 8-10 years taken off their life expectancy. •More than one-third of adults in the U.S. are considered overweight and another one-third are obese. •The medical costs associated with obesity are estimated at over $150 billion dollars. •Obese people cost an average of $1,429 more in medical services per year than someone who is normal weight. What can I do to control my weight? There is much you can do to control your weight. First of all, there are no easy answers. Reducing and maintaining a healthy weight is one of the best tools we have to forestall or avoid many diseases. 1. Lifestyle: Get support, exercise, track your progress, and eat a low-fat and low-calorie diet. 2. Boost Your Metabolism: Maintaining or increasing your lean body mass (muscles) is your best bet for keeping your metabolism going strong. There are a variety of supplements that can help with your metabolism as well. 3. Leucine: The amino acid leucine is great at helping maintain muscle mass, especially in people who are cutting calories and exercising. ii 4. Protein: Not only does protein help you feel full longer, it also helps you keep your lean body mass. Starting the morning with a good protein or protein shake helps you feel full longer. iii 5. Fiber: The benefits of fiber on weight loss are many. Studies have shown that fiber can help you feel full, support blood sugar, and it helps remove cholesterol from the body as part of a healthy diet.iv Shaklee 180 is the answer try it and watch the pounds fall off CLICK HERE TO ORDER NOW
