Sunday, August 11, 2019 / Labels: 7-Day Cleanse, Days 8-30 Strip & Shake
Have You Heard of the New "Prove It Challenge"?
This is a new program that came out at the recent Shaklee Conference. I hope you will consider the "Prove It Challenge." There's even a special low price that you can have once - $159. You need to order the products for the challenge on line, not through the call center.
What's it for? The goal is to revamp your health, lifting you to a new level of wellness, energy, mental focus and strong nutrition. The promise is that "You can feel amazing in 30 days -- guaranteed!"
How does it work? There are 2 parts: 1) The 7-Day Healthy Cleanse, 2) Days 8-30: A Strip & a Shake a Day. The cleanse uses carefully-selected Shaklee supplements and a supporting food plan. It can also jump-start weight loss and reduce cravings. You take a morning packet and an evening packets of cleanse supplements. They are: Optiflora D1 Probiotic, Liver DTX Complex, Alfalfa Complex, Herb-Lax. Also, each day you graze on fruits and vegetables. It's a good idea to eat about every 2 hours and also drink plenty of water. If you want to add another vitamin or two that you like, that's fine. Just don't duplicate what's in the cleansing packets.
On Day 8 you start the Life Shake and Shaklee Vitalizer Supplement strip. You can choose one of 3 types of Life Shake: plant protein, soy protein and stevia-free soy protein. The plant protein has non-GMO pea protein, L-Leucine, organic chia seed protein and organic pumpkinseed protein. The soy protein is a blend of non-GMO soy. The stevia-free is a blend of non-GMO soy protein , L-Leucine, organic chia seed protein and organic pumpkinseed protein, sweetened with sugar.
The Life Shakes also come in different flavors, so you can choose vanilla or chocolate in the plant protein or more flavors in soy.
In this part of the program (Days 8-30), you are replacing just one meal a day with a glass of Life Shake and the Vitalizer Vita-Strip. The strip contains a wealth of nutrition. It's based on 12 clinical studies and the Landmark Study, one of the largest studies ever done on long-term supplement users. (Dan happened to be one of them.) It showed that Shaklee supplement users had distinctly better health.
The strip has a Vita-Lea Advanced Multivitamin, B+C Complex, Caroto-E-Omega, Optiflora Probiotic. Your body is nourished with 23 essential vitamins and minerals, antioxidants, phytonutrients, omega-3 fatty acids, pre- and probiotics and non-GMO protein every single day. This supports your brain, heart, vision, bones, immune system and general health.
After 30 days? When you prove to yourself that this works, you'll want to keep going with the Strip & Life Shake. I certainly believe Shaklee is an exceptional company with excellent products. It's been 34 years for me and for Dan and we have seen many, many others who feel the same way.

Fasting?? For ME?
"Intermittent Fasting 101" is among the Shaklee blogs. I'd recommend reading it if you find this shorter version interesting. As they say in the blog, fasting has been around for a very long time. It has been used for "health, healing and religious or spiritual reasons." Dr. Forrest Shaklee, founder of this company, used to fast every Monday, just drinking water and watery drinks, such as coffee or tea. After having started out a very sick infant, he lived into his 90's.
Why consider fasting? Lose weight...lower insulin...increase metabolism...simplify live...and also restore balance. That means you reduce calorie intake and allow your body to use stored energy, eating fewer, simpler meals.
Okay, just how does this work? There are just 3 methods described in the Shaklee blog.
1) The 16:8 Method Skip breakfast and restrict your eating period to 8 hours. For instance, you could eat from Noon to 8 PM. "Many people find this method the simplest and most sustainable, so it's good for beginners!" Full disclosure: I don't like this one because I am breakfast-oriented. I feel it fuels you for most of the day. However, another thought might be to do this one from 10 AM to 6 PM with brunch at the start and an early dinner at the end.
2) The 24-Hour Fast Method Pick 1 or 2 days a week when you can fast for 24 hours. For example, eat dinner at 7 PM and don't eat again until 7 PM the next day.
3) The 5:2 Method - Eat regularly for 5 days and fast 2 days, picking the ones that will work well for you. However, during the fast days, you can eat 500 calories each day, either spread out or in a single meal.
Be sure to drink beverages - water, coffee, tea and any beverages you like that have no added sugar. You can also exercise and take your supplements. Another idea is to try out the meal-skipping a few times before you launch into a full program. If you have any medical conditions, consult your doctor before starting a program. Also, see your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive. Also be cautious if you have low blood pressure, are underweight or have a history of eating disorders.

Happy Mother's Day!
 |
Happy Mother's Day!
Some of the Shaklee products you need are: OsteoMatrix and Vitamin D3 for bones, Vitalizer Women and Shaklee Life Shakes for energy and nutrition. Life Shakes come in 4 flavors (Vanilla, Chocolate, Cafe Latte, Strawberry) plus a temporary one, tasty Summer Peach. I've just re-ordered it
Women over 50 might try the other version, Vitalizer Gold. Each daily strip of vitamins has 80 nutrients. Talk about a gold mine! Depending on how active you are, you might also check out Advanced Joint Health Complex. Perhaps Vivix (comes in Liquigels or Liquid) would help you with aging if that's a concern. MindWorks enhances brain performance. If you have family or friends with MCI or Alzheimer's, improving your brain is probably high on your list.
Pro-active? Yep, that's my mantra & I hope it is yours as well.

Update on the Improvement, Simplification of the Life Shake Line
About 7 months ago, CEO Roger Barnett announced the dramatic improvement of the Life Shake line.
1. This includes a 25% increase in protein - from 16 to 20 grams per serving. There is no cost increase. Shaklee continues to use ultra-pure con-GMO protein sources, which contain the perfect ration of all 9 essential amino acids.
2. 24% fewer calories per serving.
3. Contains Omega-3s to support heart & brain health.
4. The 4 delicious flavors of Life Soy Protein formula contain L-leucine and also a new proprietary blend of chia seed protein and organic pumpkin seed protein. The new shake is vegan, diary-and gluten-free. It remains non-GMO and kosher.
5. The 2 flavors of Life Plant Protein Formula contain pea protein, L-leucine and a propietary blend of organic chia seed protein and organic pumpkin seed protein. Not only does it contain 25% more protein, but now it costs 23% less!
6. Both the soy and plant proteins provide all 23 of the essential vitamins and minerals plus 6 grams of fiber. The're both powered by Leucine to preserve lean muscle mass during weight loss and to build new muscle during exercise.
7. Shaklee designed a new probiotic for the Life Shake to improve our digestive health. They also added digestive enzymes to maximize protein consumption.
8. All of the new shakes contain zero-added sugars.
9. Just as before, all versions of the shake are available in a 15-serving cannister or the 30-serving pouch. You even save 27 cents per serving with the pouch

February - A Great Time to Work on Healthy Heart!
I love genealogy, so tend to approach this subject from that direction. If you haven't joined one of the family history organizations - Ancestry.com, 23 & Me, etc. - then that's worth looking into. I have used 3 different ones, starting in 2004. The third one, 23 & Me, was an early Christmas gift. I am blown away by how much information they provide.
On your own, you could start with a list of those in your family who succumbed to heart disease. You might also add a column for "Cancer" or other illnesses you know of in your family.
Person Birth/Death Illness
Paternal Grandfather, Kellogg, Charles H. 1851-2/1913 Heart
Maternal Grandfather, Meredith, James B. 1880-1944 Stroke/heart attack
Father, Kellogg, John W. 1899-1987 Stroke/heart attack
What surprises me is how little I know about the exact cause of death. My mother and grandmother
both lived very long lives (89 and 97) but I'd need to go back into the records to see the actual cause of death. My mother had dementia, which contributed to her death, and my grandmother had it too, but only in the last year of her life after a stroke.
Looks like the heart is very important in my family history - and perhaps in yours as well. Here are some of the Shaklee products you might consider: OmegaGuard, CoQHeart, Blood Pressure, Cholesterol Reduction. I'd also look at Vivix, Vitalizer and the Protein Life Shakes. You can check your catalog or go on line to see a wealth of health information.

Want a More Youthful Look? Try Shaklee's YOUTH !
What is the key to beautiful skin? It's cell renewal and hydration. Last year The YOUTH Advanced Anti-Aging Collection appeared with its 4 simple steps.
They are: 1) Gently polish, purify and prep your skin with Luminous Gel Oil Cleanser, 2) Create a younger healthy glow by exfoliating, hydrating and nourishing your skin with Perfecting Skin Toner, 3) Youth Activating Serum gives you a potent anti-aging treatment with 10x the concentration of hyaluronic acid blend. This is the critical regeneration step, making your skin act younger for superior radiance and rejuvenation. 4 ) AM Protecting your skin from the effects of sun, environmental pollutants and free radicals, Age Defense Mineral Moisturizer improves the overall appearance of skin tone. It provides chemical-free SPF30 Broad Band Spectrum UVA/UVB protection. 4) PM Advanced Renewal Night Cream comes in 2 formulas: Rich and Light. What do you need? If you realize your skin is quite dry, then I'd try the Rich Formula. If not, you might try the Light Formula. Both hydrate, nourish and support your skin's cell renewal as you sleep. You wake up with younger, more luminous skin.
There's also a Starter Set called YOUTH Anti-Aging Regimen. It has all you see above EXCEPT the 3rd product, Youth Activating Serum.
This year some additional YOUTH products were introduced. The 2 new products are: Youth Moisture Activating Serum (Step 3) and Youth Moisture Lock Day Cream (Step 4 - AM). I should also mention that the first time you buy either the Advanced Anti-Aging Regimen or the Advanced
Hydration Regimen and put your order on AutoShip, you can get a free Radiance C&E (60 capsules), which retails for $94.15. Its powerful 20% C & E plus raspberry cells plumps. brightens and visibly reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Other new products this year are the Youth Restoring Eye Treatment, Purifying Clay Mask and Hydrating Gel Mask.. Another thing to consider is the Youth Activating BB Cream, 4 blendable colors to choose from - evens, corrects, hydrates, nourishes, protects.

What? Another Probiotic? Yep - Optiflora DI
As you might have noticed, I fell off of the blogging track last winter. Now that I'm settled in Chicago and Shaklee has announced new products, it's a great time to bring the latest to you once again.
Shaklee's Optiflora DI is a new product for the gut. It's a clinically-proven 10 billion CFU blend for digestive and immune health. It has 4 bacterial strains, including the powerful Bifidobacterium lactis HN019. It is also gluten-free, soy free, dairy free and requires no refrigeration. In addition, it survives the passage through the digestive tract to the large intestine. This delivers maximum benefit to the gut.
Did you know that at least 70% of our immune system is in our gut? Optiflora DI adds good bacteria and helps to restore the balance of intestinal microflora, supporting your immune health. Optiflora DI also helps to maintain digestive health and regularity. It also works on reducing occasional gas and bloating.
What about the original Optiflora products, the prebiotic and the probiotic? Prebiotics are food for the probiotics, so it is still beneficial to the Optiflora DI. It helps the good bacteria grow and multiply. The probiotics are live bacteria that's good for you, especially your digestive system. Probiotics are often called "good" bacteria because they help keep your gut healthy.
Can you take the original Optiflora probiotic with the DI? Many people will be asking that because there is an Optiflora probiotic "pearl" in the Vitalizer strip. The answer is "yes". They're designed to work together to promote comprehensive digestive and immune support.
Wondering if you will have any adjustment issues in switching to the new Optiflora DI? As with other probiotics, you may experience gas and bloating as your body adjusts. Typically this is mild,
temporary and may suggest that the probiotics are working.

Yes, We've Moved!
I thought that everyone knew about our move, but that's not the case. So here's my new information. We live at 2917 Oakwood Avenue, McHenry IL 60051, which is on the Fox River.
My email is the same: dianepellettiere@aol.com.
We have a new landline - 815-679-6224. You can also reach me at my cellphone - 847-373-0820. If that doesn't work, you can try Dan's cell, which is 847-217-0823.
Am I still offering Shaklee products? Absolutely. And speaking of the products, some exciting new ones came out in August. One of new lines is called "YOUTH". It's wonderful to see the more youthful, glowing skin that can come from the 4 simple steps: Cleanse with Luminous Gel Oil, Tone with Perfecting Skin Toner, Regenerate with Youth Activating Serum, Moisturize with (daytime) Age Defense Mineral Moisturizer or (night) Advanced Renewal Night Cream in either the Light or Rich formula.
That set of products is called The Advanced Anti-Aging Regimen. From now through Dec. 31, 2017, you receive a wonderful gift when you buy the regimen. This extra free product is called Radiance C&E, which also includes raspberry cell extract to plump, brighten and visibly reduce the
appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It also reduces the appearance of age spots, smooths skin texture and improves overall skin tone. Normally, Radiance C&E retails for $94.15.
Would you like to know more? If you're in the Chicago area, I can give you a quick demonstration on your hand. Or, if need be, I can send you more information.

A Fractured Tibia Creates a Good Story
The next day we saw the Urgent Care P.A. and 2 days later were able to get into our orthopedic practice. It was, indeed, a fractured tibia up near the knee. The MD said it would most likely be healed between Sept. 3 and Sept. 17. September seemed very far away - and what went through my head was how fast I healed after back surgery in 2004. (That was L4-L5 laminectomy and fusion.) After 4 months, that surgeon had said my body appeared to have healed for 6 months. He was elated. Would the faster recovery happen again?
This time I was to use a walker or crutches, so bought a walker. I also had a long fabric support or brace that had 4 velcro closures and 2 fasteners. Most of the time Dan helped me by wrapping the knee with gauze first, which seemed to cushion it and also keep the brace in place. Each time I saw the doctor, he said to be sure I took both Vita D3 and Calcium every day. In fact, he mentioned it 3 times the first day. I have, of course, been taking Shaklee's Calcium (now OsteoMatrix) for 32 years and Vita D3 since it came on the market, along with protein and many other strong nutritional products.
I stopped using the walker 2 weeks ago. The brace comes off this Friday. So that means it's almost 5 weeks, not 6 or 8, in recovery time. What do you think? Is Shaklee making the difference? I'd say "yes"!

"YOUTH" - Look Younger Longer...
Heather Chastain, Shaklee President, said, "As we worked on the development of our new skin care line, we discovered something fascinating. It wasn't that people minded getting older -- they wouldn't trade that wisdom for anything. They just wanted what what they saw in the mirror each day to reflect how young they felt on the inside."
That inspired the creation of YOUTH -- our revolutionary new skin care collection designed to make sure the world sees you as young as you see yourself. Our promise is you will not only dramatically improve the health of your skin with YOUTH, but it is 100% guaranteed to shift your skin to a younger age. It may seem like magic, but it is science. YOUTH improves skin texture, radiance, firmness and reduces the appearance of wrinkles.
YOUTH has 4 simple steps:
1. Luminous Gel Oil Cleanser
2. Perfecting Skin Toner
3. Youth Activating Serum
4. Age Defense Mineral Moisturizer (SPF 30)
5. Advanced Renewal Night Cream in Light or Rich Formula
Oh - and if you put the Advanced Anti-Aging Regimen on AutoShip before Dec. 31, you get a FREE
YOUTH Radiance C&E. It reduces the appearance of age spots, smooths skin texture and improves overall skin tone. It retails for $94.15.

Think Fast. Stay Sharp. With MindWorks
Beginning to think that you or someone you care about is changing, unable to remember dates, friends, events? It can feel as though the fabric of a person's life is disintegrating.
Help may come in a bottle. It's called "MindWorks" by Shaklee. Introduced 3 years ago, MindWorks was developed by a team of scientists over about 5 years. They began by studying scientific literature about the brain. The team, headed by Dr. Laurel Fisher, PhD, came up with a unique, patented collection of nutrients and herbs. These enhance mental sharpness, focus and reaction time.
Also, with prolonged use, these nutrients have been shown to dramatically reduce brain shrinkage by 30% in aging brains and also to protect against age-related mental decline. MindWorks also increases healthy circulation to the brain. Maintaining brain health depends upon proper nutrition, regular exercise and the healthy circulation just mentioned.
What's in MindWorks? Chardonnay grape seed extract, Blueberry extract, Guarana seed extract, B-Vitamins. Guarana seed extract is not the high-caffeine type found in some energy drinks, but a specific polyphenol blend. It contains less caffeine than would a medium-sized cup of decaf coffee.
MindWorks (#22066) retails for $58.75, but is $49.95 at Member Price. It can also be purchased on
AutoShip for an additional 10% off.

Tuesday, July 4, 2017 / Labels: Life Energizing Shake, Soy & non-Soy, Summer Peach, Vegan formula, Vita Lea
What Are You Going After?
Life Energizing Shake is powered by leucine to help you retain lean muscle. At the same time, it increases your energy with 24 grams of ultra-pure, plant-based, non-GMO protein. You also get those valuable pre-and-pro-biotics that work for healthy digestion. If weight is a concern, it can
help with that as well.
The Life Shake comes in both soy and non-soy. There are 4 flavors in soy plus a seasonal one called "Summer Peach", which I am quite fond of. The others are:chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and cafe latte. In the non-soy, the flavors are chocolate and vanilla. Both the soy and non-soy are available in a 15-serving canister and a 30-serving pouch. In addition there is a Shaklee 180 Smoothee Mix in Vanilla Whey - and a brand-new Vegan formula called "Plain & Simple". It has no sugar, sweeteners or flavors, so you can add what you'd like or mix it with one of the other proteins.
You can use these just as they are or try some recipes Those are at the Naturally blog - http://go.shaklee.com/naturally.
Another healthy move is to add Vita-Lea, the excellent multivitamin/multimineral, or Vitalizer vitamin strips. Vita-Lea also comes in Vita-Lea with Iron and Vita-Lea Gold for seniors (over 50). Vitalizer provides vital nutrition with a comprehensive spectrum of clinically-supported vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, phytonutrients, omega-3 fatty acids, probiotics and more in one convenient Vita-Strip. Sound good? They are - and I can vouch for that.

A Rose To All of You Super Moms...And Maybe Vitamins for a Real Treat!
What's this in the graphic? It shows one of the 30 daily strips in a box of Vitalizer Women. Reformulated last year, it is excellent for women - even those who need a
multivitamin before, during and after pregnancy and while nursing. You can see on the left what some of the nutrients equal in foods, such as 27 servings of almonds for vitamin E and 8 cups of peas for folic acid.
The Vitalizer Women includes the Vita-Lea Advanced Multivitamin with 800 mcg of folic acid, 200 mcg of iodine and 18 mcg of iron. Caroto-E-Omega in it includes 500 mg of omega-3 fatty acids with 280 mg EPA and 180 mg DHA. These support the heart, immune system and fetal development of the brain, eyes and central nervous system. B+C Complex provides energy and immune support. Optiflora Probiotic supports a healthy digestion.
Vitalizer is based on 12 clinical studies and a first-of-its-kind Landmark Study. You are so lucky to have that as a choice. When I had my 3 daughters, I had never heard of Shaklee. By the time a friend mentioned it to me, I was 48. However, the Shaklee vitamins and protein I took made menopause (early 50s) a breeze. I have no sisters to compare myself with, but my mother had a very difficult menopause, including a hysterectomy.
Another option is to take the Vita-Lea Iron and OmegaGuard. The Vita-Lea Iron has also been reformulated to be even better for pregnancy. OmegaGuard has the very valuable omega-3 essential fatty acids. By the way, if you are over 50, you might consider Vita-Lea Gold or Vitalizer Gold instead of the others I've mentioned.
One more suggestion is to consider the Energizing Life Shakes, which come in either soy or non-soy and in different flavors. I have taken Shaklee Shakes of different kinds for many years. What a
difference in energy and immune system support!
That gives you a lot to think about. Have a happy Mother's Day!

How Are The Hearts in Your Family?
What does Shaklee offer to help? Smart Heart Regimens are two ways to meet specific heart health needs. Smart Heart Blood Pressure includes: OmegaGuard to help reduce the risk of heart disease, Blood Pressure to support an already healthy blood pressure and CoQHeart to promote healthy arteries and to support energy production in the heart.
Smart Heart Cholesterol Regimen consists of: Cholesterol Reduction Complex to help lower cholesterol, OmegaGuard to help reduce the risk of heart disease and support energy production in the heart and CoQHeart to promote healthy arteries and to support energy production in the heart.
Because this is an important month for promoting heart health, may of these products may be on sale. Check with me for more information.
Other components of a healthy heart lifestyle would be eating well, exercising regularly, maintaining a healthy weight, eliminating smoking from your life, limiting alcohol consumption, reducing stress.

"What's Your Favorite Product?"
Multivitamin, B+C Complex, Carot-E-Omega and Optiflora - 6 capsules in all.
What do these do? "They deliver the right nutrients to the right place at the right time." There are 3 different types of Vitalizer. The blue box is "Vitalizer", the pink one is "Vitalizer + Iron" and the third is "Vitalizer Gold." It comes with or without vitamin K. That's what I take, the Vitalizer Gold with K. The Gold is for seniors, typically a man or woman over 50.
As it says on the box, the Vitalizer has 80 nutrients. It is formulated for today's healthy, active adult.
It supports healthy aging, heart health, bone and joint health, immune health, brain health and cognition, healthy vision, digestive health and physical energy. Vitalizer features "S.M.A.R.T.", which stands for Shaklee Micronutrient Advanced Release Technology.
Curious? Wondering how it would help you? The best way to find out is to give it a try.

Tuesday, December 20, 2016 / Labels: CorEnergy, Holiday Gift Ideas at 5% savings, new 180 Starter Kit offer thru January, Specials such as Vita-Lea, Stress Relief, Vita-Lea Gold
Wellness Matters Offers Sales Galore This Month!
Vita-Lea and Vita-Lea Gold are both on sale - along with CorEnergy, Stress Relief and others. Over 20 "Holiday Gift Ideas" are listed too - all of those at 5% savings. For those of you who have birthdays in December, you get your 10%
birthday bonus on everything you buy - plus the specials.
Most people got my December email in mid-Nov. with about 50 others getting the "snail mail" version of the newsletter. The list of specials went out separately at the end of November with most people getting them on email and others through the post office.
Just to make this more confusing, the new newsletter I'm sending to you comes through Shaklee. The January issue is arriving this week, though sometimes it's later in the month. Do let me know how you like it. You received it last month for the first time. If I send to you through the post office, you get a little less information than those who see it on email and click the links to extra thoughts.
There's a 180 Starter Kit offer that runs through Jan. 31. If you or someone you know is not a Shaklee member, then this is a great deal. You get a free membership along with the wonderful Shaklee 180 products, powered by leucine to support lean muscle. I will mention it again in another
email.
