The Landmark Dietary Supplement Study:
Usage patterns, health, and nutritional status of long-term multiple dietary supplement users: a cross-sectional study

Published 24 October 2007

Abstract (provisional)

Background

Dietary supplement use in the United States is prevalent and represents an important source of nutrition. However, little is known about individuals who routinely consume multiple dietary supplements. This study describes the dietary supplement usage patterns, health, and nutritional status of long-term multiple dietary supplement users, and where possible makes comparisons to non-users and multivitamin/mineral supplement users.

Methods

Using a cross-sectional study design, information was obtained by online questionnaires and physical examination (fasting blood, blood pressure, body weight) from a convenience sample of long-term users of multiple dietary supplements manufactured by Shaklee Corporation (Multiple Supp users, n=278). Data for non-users (No Supp users, n=602) and multivitamin/mineral supplement users (Single Supp users, n=176) were obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2001-2002 and NHANES III 1988-1994. Logistic regression methods were used to estimate odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals.

Results

Dietary supplements consumed on a daily basis by more than 50% of Multiple Supp users included a multivitamin/mineral, B-complex, vitamin C, carotenoids, vitamin E, calcium with vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, flavonoids, lecithin, alfalfa, coenzyme Q10 with resveratrol, glucosamine, and a herbal immune supplement. The majority of women also consumed gamma linolenic acid and a probiotic supplement, whereas men also consumed zinc, garlic, saw palmetto, and a soy protein supplement. Serum nutrient concentrations generally increased with increasing dietary supplement use. After adjustment for age, gender, income, education and body mass index, greater degree of supplement use was associated with more favorable concentrations of serum homocysteine, C-reactive protein, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides, as well as lower risk of prevalent elevated blood pressure and diabetes.

Conclusions

This group of long-term multiple dietary supplement users consumed a broad array of vitamin/mineral, herbal, and condition-specific dietary supplements on a daily basis. They were more likely to have optimal concentrations of chronic disease-related biomarkers, and less likely to have suboptimal blood nutrient concentrations, elevated blood pressure, and diabetes compared to non-users and multivitamin/mineral users. These findings should be confirmed by studying the dietary supplement usage patterns, health, and nutritional status of other groups of heavy users of dietary supplements.

How You Make Money in Shaklee— Your Nine Income Streams*
Download How The Dream Plan Works pdf file

I. GOLD Bonuses**
This is one of the first ways you can earn money in Shaklee. For each SUPER GOLD PAK or GOLD PLUS PAK you personally sell, you earn a $100 GOLD Bonus. For each GOLD PAK you personally sell, you earn a $50 GOLD Bonus. This bonus is paid for your sale of the products included in the selected GOLD PAK.
Power Bonuses
Next, you are eligible to earn points toward Power Bonuses each time you personally sponsor someone into your Shaklee group with a specified product purchase level in the month you sponsor and in your first three full months that follow. Each and every time you accrue 15 sponsoring points during your eligibility period, you earn a $150 Power Bonus. You also get a new three-month eligibility period for Power Bonuses EACH time you increase in Business Leader rank.
Price Differential
This is the retail profit that you make on product sales. You buy the product at one price and you sell it at another and you make the difference.
Personal Group Bonuses
When you and all the people in your Personal Group, including customers, generate a certain volume of product sales each month, you earn a monthly bonus on the sale of these products.
*For information on global sponsoring, visit MyShaklee.com, select MyShaklee tab, and click on “Shaklee Global.”
**You must be a Gold Ambassador to earn, GOLD, FastTRACK, and International Bonuses. You become a Gold Ambassador by purchasing one of the GOLD PAKs.

FastTRACK Bonuses*
Next, you can earn extra bonuses and rewards by reaching certain Business Leader ranks in a specified FastTRACK time frame, starting with Director. This is a lucrative program that can help you earn up to $34,000 in a 15-month period. Factoring in other income sources, those who achieve all FastTRACK bonuses can earn in total up to $100,000 in a 15-month period, plus qualify to attend four trips!
Incentives
Similar to the Power Bonus point system, you can earn points in our Simple Points Program toward exotic luxury trips and fabulous rewards sponsored by Shaklee each year.
Car Bonuses
Reach 3000 Personal Group Volume and personally promote a new First Generation Director, and you can begin to qualify to earn a monthly car bonus toward a new car for up to three years. The monthly car bonus payment you can earn increases when you climb the ranks in Shaklee.
Leadership Bonuses
Once you reach the level of Director and you begin to develop other Directors in
your organization, you earn a monthly bonus on the volume of each Business Leader up to six generations under you, depending on your rank.
Infinity Bonuses
Infinity Bonuses are earned monthly up to 8% on ALL Leaders in your organization to infinity, based on your rank and the rank of your Leaders—beginning with the rank of Senior Coordinator. There are no limits to the number
of Leaders you can be paid on!
*You must be a Gold Ambassador to earn GOLD, FastTRACK, and International Bonuses.

The Shaklee Dream Plan: HOW IT WORKS3
Price Differential
n Profit you earn from the sale of products. You buy at one price and sell at another.
n Each Shaklee product has three prices:
• Suggested Retail Price for retail customers
• Member Price* for Members (preferred customers)
• Distributor Price* for Business Leaders.
n Each Shaklee product has a stable Point Value (PV) on which bonuses are calculated. Each time a product is sold, you get PV on the sale of the product.
n How Differential earns you money
• When your customer orders products and pays the Member Price, you earn an average of 16% Price Differential. (This is the difference between Distributor Price and Member Price.)
• When your customer buys products at the Suggested Retail Price (SRP), you make an average
of 36% Price Differential. (This is the difference between Distributor Price and Suggested
Retail Price.)
n Point Value (PV) is very valuable because most of the ways you make money in Shaklee
are based on Point Value.
*Member Price (MP) has also been referred to as Member Net (MN). Distributor Price has also been referred to as
Distributor Net (DN).
* *A non-monetary point value on which Shaklee pays bonuses.

n Your Personal Group = YOU and all the customers and Distributors in your personal team. The Business Leaders in your organization each have their own Personal Group.
n Personal Group Bonuses = Bonuses paid each month on Personal Group Volume total for YOU and for each Distributor/ Gold Ambassador in your Personal Group who generates volume.
n Your Bonus percentage grows as your Personal Group Volume (PGV) grows
n Qualify for the rank of Director at 2000 Personal Group Volume with a bonus rate of up to 20%

The Shaklee Dream Plan: HOW IT WORKS3 The Importance of Personal Group Bonuses
n You make more money as you grow your Personal Group
Activity breeds more activity. The more people you have buying and sharing products in your Personal Group, the better. Successful Business Leaders recommend that you always have 40 to 50 consumers in your Personal Group, and also always have at least three active builders growing and earning bonuses each month. Having builders in your Personal Group helps you reach Director and gives you a larger bonus on the purchases of Members and customers you bring into your Personal Group.
n See what happens:
If YOU are an Associate
If YOU HAVE an Associate in your group and YOU become a Director
YOU EARN
12% - 14%
YOU EARN
20%
On YOUR Members’ volume!
On YOUR Members’ Volume
n You put yourself on track to get a new car and earn fabulous trips
Every one of your builders is an investment in your future. You want them to be successful and grow. And when they do, you are rewarded. As they grow, so does your volume. Climb to 3000 Personal Group Volume and promote one of your Business Builders to Director, and you are on your way to driving a new car, thanks to the Shaklee Car Bonus Program. Get 18,000 Car Volume for six months, and you are on your way to an expense-paid trip to the Shaklee Global Headquarters in the San Francisco Bay area.
And that’s just the beginning!

n Get to Director with 2000 Personal Group Volume (PGV)
The graphic below shows how you could get to 2000 Personal Group Volume in your first month if you sponsored as a Gold Ambassador and subsequently sponsored three Gold Ambassadors and 10 Members within your first month in Shaklee. This also assumes your Member orders average 100 Point Value each.
n See what your earnings could look like in this example:
3 GOLD Bonuses—$299 PAK ($50 X 3) = $150
1 Power Bonus (5 points X 3 = 15 points) = $150
Personal Group Bonus = $370
(Your 250 PV X 20% = $50, 1000 PV X 20% = $200,
250 PV X 3 = 750 PV X 16% = $120)
Price Differential on 1000 PV on AutoShip = $202.25
($20.25 differential X 10 for Vitalizer and Vivix Together Pack)
Total: $872.25
n Reach Director in your first three months in Shaklee and you will set yourself on the FastTRACK by earning free registration for two to the Global Conference!
n Continue to build a solid Point Value base
Your Personal Group Volume and your earnings will continue to grow as you continue to sponsor new Gold Ambassadors/Distributors and new Members into your business and help your Gold Ambassadors/Distributors sponsor using the “3 & 10—Do It Again” model. Successful Leaders recommend that you set a goal each month to reach 3000 Personal Group Volume or more. That allows you to account for varying purchase levels of your preferred customers and the growth and movement of your Distributors as they advance to Director. It also sets you on the path to earn a trip to the New Directors Conference in the San Francisco Bay Area and a new car bonus when you reach the rank of Senior Director.
n IMPORTANT: To maintain Director rank, you must have a minimum of
2000 Personal Group Volume EACH MONTH.*
*Also required to maintain ALL leadership ranks above Director. (See the Shaklee P&R on MyShaklee.com for special volume allowances when you develop a new Director.)

2 Your Growth Strategy: Develop Leaders
Your growth strategy is to develop Business Leaders who will emerge from your Personal Group
and who, in turn, will develop Leaders downline in your organization.
n Position yourself for FastTRACK, Leadership and Infinity bonuses:
• Work to get to Director in three months or less.
Use the Action Plan at the end of this guide to help you. Try for FastTRACK. It’s an extra incentive that can add to your income. You’ll want to encourage your business builders to do the same.
• Target the rank of Executive Coordinator in 12 to 15 months or less
Successful Leaders recommend you should always articulate your next stretch goal so you know where you are going and why. Target Executive Coordinator in a 15-month time frame—you can earn up to $34,000 in FastTRACK bonuses. Should it take a little longer, that’s OK too—so long as you get there and enjoy the income you earn at that rank.
• Visualize Master Coordinator
Now this is your BIG S-T-R-E-T-C-H goal, but every successful Leader who made it to Master will tell you that you need to visualize what you will do to make it happen. Put it out there. It can happen faster than you think!

***Organizational Volume is the Personal Volume of a Shaklee Independent Distributor plus the Personal Volume of each Shaklee Family Member (Members, Distributors, Gold Ambassadors) in their entire organization, including Business Leaders. A Business Leader leg is a 1st Generation Business Leader and his entire organization.
Take this example: Ben has achieved the rank qualifications for Executive Coordinator within 15 months after the first month in which he joined Shaklee. Ben has 4000 Personal Group Volume. One of his First Generation Leaders, Joan, is a Senior Coordinator with 10,000 Organizational Volume. His other two First Generation Leaders each have 3000 OV. Therefore, Joan is considered Ben’s strongest leg. Ben’s Personal Group Volume of 4000 plus the 3000 Organizational Volume from each of his other two First Generation Leaders totals 10,000, so he meets the requirement to have 10,000 Organizational Volume outside his strongest leg.
WHAT YOU DO
Promote to Senior Coordinator in your first 12 months in Shaklee and hold the Senior Coordinator paid-as rank for three consecutive months*, including the month of promotion.
Promote to Executive Coordinator in

Leadership Bonuses
n These are monthly bonuses you earn on the Personal Group Volume (PGV) of
each Business Leader in your organization—up to six generations.
The higher their PGV, the more income you generate from your Leadership Bonuses.
n See how that works.
As a Senor Director, you get a 6% bonus based on the
Personal Group Volume of the 1st Generation Leaders
you develop. Also, you get 3% on your 2nd Generation
Leaders.
n Leadership Bonus percentages increase as you grow in rank.
The more Business Leaders you have in your organization, the greater your income will be. Look to the Drive the Dream brochure for the full range of Leadership Bonus percentages and requirements for the upper ranks in Shaklee. Just know: You can be paid from four generations deep for Key Coordinator to up to six generations deep for Senior Master Coordinator and Presidential Master Coordinator. That can amount to a lot of money. In fact, top Business Leaders make the lion’s share
of their income from Leadership and Infinity Bonuses, as you will see.
n Take a look at how your Leadership Bonuses increase as you grow to
Executive Coordinator.
In addition to having a required number of 1st Generation Leaders, the ranks beginning with
Senior Coordinator and above also have an Organizational Volume (OV) requirement.* Organizational Volume is your Personal Volume plus the Personal Volume of each Shaklee Family Member in your ENTIRE organization, including all Business Leaders.

*As you reach Key Coordinator rank or above, a minimum of 50% of your Organizational Volume must come from outside the strongest leg in your organization. (A Business Leader leg is a 1st Generation Leader and his entire organization.) For complete information on rank requirements and leadership bonuses, look to the Shaklee P&R available on MyShaklee.com.

Infinity Bonuses
n These are monthly bonuses you earn on the Personal Group Volume (PGV)
of each Business Leader in your organization—with NO limits to the number
of generations you can have—PAID TO INFINITY.*
n Infinity Bonuses begin to be paid at the rank of Senior Coordinator and above and are in addition to Leadership Bonuses as follows:
up to 2% Senior Coordinator up to 6% Senior Key Coordinator
up to 3% Executive Coordinator up to 7% Master Coordinator
up to 4% Senior Executive Coordinator up to 7.5% Senior Master Coordinator
up to 5% Key Coordinator up to 8% Presidential Master Coordinator
n How Infinity Bonuses are calculated and paid: In the example below, the Executive Coordinator gets 3% on his first two legs, and because the Senior Coordinator qualifies for an Infinity Bonus, the Executive Coordinator gets 1% on all Leaders in the Senior Coordinator leg, and the Senior Coordinator gets 2% on the Leaders below him.
n Add the Infinity Bonus percentages you qualify for to your Leadership Bonuses and watch your income GROW!
For example, at Executive Coordinator, you earn an increase of 50% or MORE on your Leaders.* Instead of 6% (Leadership Bonuses), you get 9% (additional 3% Infinity Bonuses) on 1st and 2nd Generation Leaders—and a total of 7% (4% Leadership + 3% Infinity Bonuses) on your 3rd Generation Leaders, and that doesn’t count the ongoing 3% to infinity you get on developing Leaders in your 4th Generation and beyond. The key is growing your organization of Leaders much like a grass-roots organization. It can grow exponentially as many of our top Leaders have discovered! And you can be paid Infinity Bonuses on your entire organization with no generation limitations!
*For complete information on Infinity Bonuses, look to the Shaklee P&R available on MyShaklee.com

$6 Billion in Commissions Paid

2011-07-07T13:55:00.000-07:00

Our Track Record Speaks for Itself

For more than 50 years, Shaklee has been issuing checks to its independent distributors.

Over that time period, more than $6 billion has been paid in commissions. That's billion with a 'b'. Piles of money. Enough said. Think of the difference this has made in the lives of families all around the world.

Now, expand your thinking and try to imagine the difference Shaklee has made as a whole. Not just in pocketbooks ... in health, in the environment, in dreams reached, in dreams lived -- over generations.

What other company literally has generations of loyal independent distributors and customers? There are some, but not many.

Shaklee has actually managed to thrive in past recessions, and today our product line and earning opportunity are better than ever. It's about meeting needs and wants. We're doing something right.

Today, there are 4th generation Shaklee families taking advantage of the Shaklee earning opportunity. Unlike some competitive companies, Shaklee businesses can be handed down from one generation to the next. That's right. You have something to pass on. Many have done it and are doing it, and so can you.

These Shaklee businesses often start out when people either jump into the earning opportunity with full intention of building a business, while others start after people were using the products only, but then found that there was an earning opportunity there, right in front of them.

It all amounts to Creating Healthier Lives, physically, financially, emotionally and in so many other countless ways.

Shaklee Corporation Social Web Guidelines

2011-07-07T13:52:00.001-07:00

Overview

Shaklee Social MediaThis document is intended for Shaklee Distributors as a mechanism to guide the appropriate, ethical, and best use of social Web tools to provide and share information about Shaklee, its products and the Shaklee opportunity. The following guidelines outline best practices for operating knowledgably and respectfully with people on the Internet. They also protect the privacy, confidentiality, and interests of Shaklee.

These guidelines are not a substitute for the rules for doing business on the Internet and/or rules relating to ethical business practices, set forth in the Statement of Privileges and Responsibilities of Shaklee Family Members (“P&R”). To the extent there is any conflict between the P&R and this Policy, the P&R governs.
Guidelines for Interaction about Shaklee on Social Media Platforms

1. Be Responsible

You are responsible for your posts:
* Be truthful, not deceptive or misleading
* Respect the privacy of others
* Avoid content that may be considered inappropriate

2. Be Authentic and Transparent

Always include your name, your company name and identify yourself as a Shaklee Distributor when engaging online as a representative for your Shaklee business.

When providing a testimonial for Shaklee within a forum or other online community, identify yourself as a Shaklee distributor. Your testimonial may not contain any product or compensation claims other than those authorized in the P&R, Shaklee publications, product literature, labels, and/or the Shaklee Compensation Plan and related materials.

When allowing others to provide endorsements on your Web properties, such as a Facebook page, a blog, or your Web site, disclose if the person providing the endorsement was paid or is a Shaklee Distributor.

You may not use Shaklee Corporation’s trademarks for any domain name, email address, social networking profile or page, online alias, handle, or group name.
3. Consider the Audience

As you operate in online communities and share content about yourself and your business, this information, depending on the venue, may be viewable by anyone using the Internet. That said, it’s important to think about the content you are considering sharing on your social network page, your blog, and even your website and whether it could be perceived as offensive, inappropriate or misleading.

While you may participate in a number of communities, the audience you are speaking to may not be the same in each location. Know the audience you are interacting with and be considerate of their privacy and their online properties.

For example, do not use another person’s website to promote your business, unless you are adding value to the website. See more about adding value below.
4. Respect Terms of Service and Community Guidelines

Always review the Terms of Service of a social platform to ensure you are operating appropriately within the channel.

In addition, review any other guidelines that may be associated with the location on which you are participating. For instance, The Shaklee Corporation Facebook page has community guidelines specific to the page. Potential and existing fans should review these guidelines to understand what consists of appropriate and inappropriate engagement on the page.
5. Managing Negative Comments

Every interaction you have on social media sites may be public. Avoid posting negative comments about Shaklee, other Shaklee Distributors, and other direct selling companies on external blogs and websites, including the Shaklee Corporation social media channels.

Additionally, do not share any personal information that you would not want the public to have (e.g., social security number, personal phone number, or email address).

Unless otherwise noted within the community guidelines, customer service issues should not be addressed through public-facing social media channels, but rather through approved channels of communication (e.g., fieldsupport@shaklee.com)
6. Add Value to Communities
Social networking sites can be used to share information about the company, products and opportunity and to generate interest in your business.

Share content that provides value to the audience and that goes beyond promoting your business, such as relevant articles that your audience and you are interested in (e.g. health and wellness). If the content helps people improve knowledge or skills, build their business, solve problems, or understand Shaklee better, then it’s adding value.

Do not “spam link” on blogs or external websites
* E.g., don’t comment on external websites or blogs with just a link to your PWS or other Web properties to try to sell products.
o Example of appropriate linking: say why you liked the article that you are commenting on. Does it relate to something personal about you? If so, add a personal comment and then link to your website as a way for others to learn more about YOU and not just your business. People need to trust you as a person first before they are going to be interested in your business.
o Example of inappropriate/spam linking: Posting a link to your Shaklee business website, Facebook page, or other websites without a personal comment that adds value to the article, blog post, or conversation thread.

Multi-level marketer Shaklee loses endorsement of Harvard professor

2011-07-07T05:17:00.000-07:00

The Wall Street Journal reports (subscription required) that Harvard Medical School professor David Sinclair has resigned from the board of Shaklee, a company that markets Vivix Cellular Anti-Aging Tonic, "the world's best anti-aging supplement", through a multi-level marketing system.

The Wall Street Journal has video footage (see below) of Dr. Sinclair speaking at the company's sales convention, describing the company's chairman and CEO Roger Barnett as the "greatest visionary of the 21st century."

That was in August and now he's gone. What prompted the change of heart? According to the Journal, "Following questions by The Wall Street Journal about his seeming endorsement of the product, Dr. Sinclair resigned from the board last week and now says his name has been misused in connection with Vivix, which contains the antioxidant resveratrol."

In an email to the Journal, he wrote that "To my dismay I have found numerous uses of my name and reputation on the Web and in other media that implies endorsement by me of Shaklee's Vivix product. I have engaged counsel to deal with this matter and have demanded that Shaklee cease using my name."

Methinks the good doctor doth protest too much. A cynical person might say that Sinclair endorsed a dubious network marketing product enthusiastically in exchange for his paid position on the company's advisory board and is now crying foul after the media raised questions about it.

Harvard Medical School is looking into the matter.

Vita-D3: Add Some Sunshine to Your Day

2010-08-27T22:28:00.000-07:00

We stand behind each and every one of our products.
The ingredients, purity, safety,and performance of all our
Nutrition, Healthy Home, and Personal Care products are
100% guaranteed.
Americans aren’t getting enough vitamin D. In fact, recent
research studies suggests that up to 80% of people in the U.S.
have insufficient levels of this essential nutrient, which offers
a multitude of health benefits. Why? Lack of sun exposure.
Vitamin D is considered the “sunshine vitamin” because it’s produced
as sunlight touches your skin. Our busy workdays keep
us indoors most of the time, preventing us from seeing much
of the sun. And protective covering such as sunscreens and
clothing inhibit vitamin D synthesis. While modifying your diet is
another way to up your vitamin D intake, most people don’t get
enough vitamin D from diet alone. Are you getting enough?
Add some sunshine to your day—and your health! Vitamin D
plays a major role in protecting your health and is vital for overall
well-being. Boost your level of vitamin D with Shaklee Vita-D3.
Our vitamin D supplement contains 1,000 IU of high potency
vitamin D3, the most potent form of vitamin D.
Studies show this essential nutrient helps:
• Support healthy heart function
• Promote immune system health
• Facilitate healthy cell development
• Maintain strong bones and teeth by increasing calcium
absorption
Shaklee Vita-D3 is the culmination of recent scientific research,
including two Shaklee industry-leading vitamin D studies.
Supplemental vitamin D is clinically supported and proven to
significantly raise blood levels of vitamin D.

• Vitamin D is present in certain fish and fortified foods such as
cow’s milk, orange juice, and breakfast cereals. However, it
is difficult to get adequate amounts of vitamin D through diet
alone.
• Due to insufficient exposure to sunlight, people who live
farther from the equator have a greater risk of having insufficient
vitamin D levels than those who live near it.
• E ven weak sunscreens (SPF 8) can inhibit vitamin D production
by up to 95%.
• The older you are, the more vitamin D you need. With age,
your body becomes less efficient in converting vitamin D to
a form it can use.
• People with darker skin are more susceptible to having
insufficient vitamin D levels.
Did You Know? Who Should Consider Vita-D3?
Men, women, and adolescents ages 16
and older who:
• May not get adequate sun exposure
• May not get enough vitamin D from
the diet
• Live farther from the equator
• Are overweight or obese
• Don’t exercise regularly
• Have darker skin pigmentation

Shaklee Cholesterol Reduction Complex

2010-08-20T20:31:00.000-07:00

Are you one of the 80 million American adults with high cholesterol? People with high cholesterol have a greater risk of developing heart disease compared to those who have optimal levels. Now you can lower your cholesterol naturally. Shaklee Cholesterol Reduction Complex is made with a powerful blend of plant sterols and stanols—clinically proven ingredients that help prevent the absorption of cholesterol and lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol. • Made with a powerful blend of sterols and stanols, which are naturally found in plants, fruits, vegetables, and grains
• Delivers 2,000 mg of plant sterols and stanols daily
• Plant sterols and stanols have been clinically proven by more than 80 studies to lower
LDL cholesterol
• Delivers daily 100% of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) recommendation for sterols
and stanols**

Outsmart Your Cholesterol Naturally

Found naturally in plants, fruits, vegetables, and grains, plant sterols and stanols have been shown in numerous studies to lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol. Because plant sterols and stanols have a structure similar to cholesterol, they compete for absorption in the intestines. Therefore, less cholesterol gets absorbed into the bloodstream, and the better your chances for lowering your LDL cholesterol.
†Products providing 800 mg of plant sterols and stanols daily, consumed with two different meals as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease. Cholesterol Reduction Complex provides 1,000 mg of plant sterols and stanols per serving, and 2,000 mg daily when used as directed.

*First-time customers will get a special introductory discount of 10% off. This offer is valid for 90 days starting from your first purchase of Cholesterol Reduction Complex. PV for discounted product is reduced by 10%. Offer cannot be combined with any other offer, including AutoShip. Price, special offers, and product availability subject to change without notice.

**NIH recommendation for lowering cholesterol: eat less saturated fat and cholesterol, exercise, lose weight, eat more soluble fiber, and consume 2,000 mg of plant sterols and stanols daily.

We’ve just returned from Anaheim and what might have been the most EXCITING Shaklee Global Conference EVER! The new Dream Plan separates Shaklee from the competition by offering the opportunity to earn cash, payments for cars, and travel to unbelievable destinations. We also unveiled four new products at Conference AND 4 new research studies---and for me, nothing represents the Shaklee Difference™ more than our commitment to rigorous scientific integrity and the highest quality standards.

Our four new products:

Vita-D3™ (vitamin D dietary supplement)
Cholesterol Reduction Complex†
Fiber Advantage bar
Get Clean® Water pitcher
Our four new studies:

Vitamin D/ Vitalizer study
VIVIX® polyhenols and oxidative stress study
VIVX polyphenols and cellular energy study
Cinch® + Vitalizer + exercise study.
Our four new products embody Shaklee’s heritage of innovative products that target critical health issues and this year’s clinical research continues to cement our leadership role in advancing the state of scientific knowledge in relevant health and nutrition topics. You’ll hear more about these studies and products in the coming weeks.

But there’s another huge piece of the Shaklee Difference that I want you to know about. It’s about the potentially dangerous ingredients that you simply won’t find in Shaklee products. The feature story in the September, 2010 issue of Consumer Reports® is “The 12 Most Dangerous Supplements, Which ones to avoid, Why they’re on the market,” published by Consumers Union® (CU), the expert, independent, nonprofit organization working for a fair, just, and safe marketplace for all consumers. http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/magazine-archive/2010/september/september-2010-toc.htm.

Consumer Reports singled out the following “dirty dozen” dietary supplement ingredients due to potential health risks ranging from cardiovascular to liver and kidney problems: aconite, bitter orange, chaparral, colloidal silver, coltsfoot, comfrey, country mallow, germanium, greater celandine, kava, lobelia, and yohimbe. And the FDA has warned about at least eight of them, some as long ago as 1993.

It came as no surprise to Shaklee that there are not any ingredients on this list that are in our products. In fact, these ingredients are not and have never been used in any Shaklee dietary supplement. In addition to researching the ingredients that we use in our Shaklee formulas for their efficacy, we take equal care in determining the safety of each and every ingredient used in our Shaklee products. Over the years we’ve evaluated many of the ingredients on the CU list and have rejected them for the same safety reasons CU now uses to identify them on their “hit” list.

The “dirty dozen” list is the first update of the original CU list published in 2004. And now it should come as no surprise to you that no Shaklee dietary supplement has ever contained any of the offending ingredients from either the 2004 or the new 2010 Consumer Reports “Most Dangerous Supplements” lists.

Always Safe is more than just a catchphrase at Shaklee, it’s a guiding principle. Safety is paramount at Shaklee and our safety standards are unsurpassed in our industry. We conduct hundreds of tests on new ingredients and tens of thousands of quality tests annually to ensure product safety and efficacy. But more importantly, we design safety into each and every one of our products so you can be confident that dangerous ingredients will never find their way into any Shaklee dietary supplement.

Sending warmest regards,

Dr. Jamie McManus M.D.
Chairman, Medical Affairs and Health Sciences
