You’re busy, stressed, tired, and overworked. I get it. With a busy work and family schedule, taking care of your own health can be tricky to impossible. That is why we need to supplement with whole food supplements that work and have studies to back them up.
Women’s Starter Program:
Shaklee Vitalizer Women or Shaklee Vitalizer Gold (for women over 50)
80 bio-optimized nutrients clinically proven to create a foundation for a longer, healthier life
Vitalizer contains:
Vita Lea – Because most of us do not get all the nutrients we need from diet alone – AND- the American Medical association recommends that every adult take a multivitamin/multimineral supplement daily to prevent chronic diseases.
Sustained Release B – C Complex:
Vitamin C – Because vitamin C helps protect us from the dangerous free radicals which increase our risk of cancer and other degenerative diseases -AND- many women do not get enough vitamin C from their diet.
B Complex – Because recent research has shown that inadequate intake of B vitamins can lead to a buildup of homocysteine in the blood which may increase the risk of dementia, heart disease and stroke -AND- most women do not get enough B vitamins in their diet
Caroto–E-Omega:
Carotenoids – Because Caroto-E-Omega contains all 6 of the essential carotenoids found in those fresh fruits and vegetable that we are not eating on a regular basis – AND – the carotenoids in Caroto-E-Omega have been shown to reduce risk factors associated with cancer, heart disease, and eye disease.
Vitamin E – Because Caroto-E-Omega contains all 8 naturally occurring forms of vitamin E in optimum balance. Clinical studies have shown that supplementation with vitamin E reduces the risk factors associated with heart disease and boosts the immune system -AND- we cannot get the amount of vitamin E used in the clinical studies from our diet alone.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids – Because Caroto-E-Omega contains all 7 naturally occurring omega-3 fatty acids in an ultra-high purity form. Clinical studies have shown that populations who consume diets rich in omega-3 fatty acids have a very low risk of heart attack and stroke -AND- cold water fish, which are the best dietary sources of omega-3 fatty acids are often contaminated with heavy metals, dioxin and/or pesticides.
Optiflora Probiotic – When harmful bacteria and yeast take up residence in our intestine, they metabolize the food that we eat into cancer causing substances and other toxins that harm our body and weaken our immune system – AND – Optiflora pearls contain Acidophilus and Bifidus, essential friendly bacteria that crowd the harmful bacteria & yeast out of our intestines.
Optiflora guarantees delivery of 500 million live beneficial microflora to the intestines, due to its unique triple encapsulation which protects these essential bacteria from the acidity of the stomach.
Women’s Wellness Program
For Better Results Add:
Vivix Cellular Anti-Aging Tonic – Because scientific research has finally discovered why we age -AND- Shaklee has utilized the latest research advances to produce an exclusive polyphenol blend that positively impacts the four key mechanisms of cellular aging. Laboratory studies have shown that the polyphenols in Vivix have the potential to increase your lifespan and your health span (your quality of life as you age).
Shaklee Life Energizing Protein and Nutriferon
Shaklee Life Energizing Shake – Because we need protein for building healthy cells and a strong immune system -AND- the American Heart Association recommends soy protein as part of a heart healthy diet. [Note: we do have a Whey 180 Smoothee Mix and a non-soy options for those who are soy-sensitive].
Nutriferon – Because a healthy immune system protects us from deadly diseases and cancer AND allergies are becoming an increasing problem for millions of Americans -AND- Shaklee’s revolutionary Nutriferon formulation both strengthens and normalizes the immune system – providing us with increased protection against disease and cancer while it reduces allergy symptoms.
The Optimal Health for Women Program
For Best Results Add:
GLA – Because it contains omega-6 fatty acid, sunflower seed oil, and vitamin E to help promote a sense of well-being throughout a woman’s monthly cycle.
Menopause Balance Complex – Because it contains black cohosh which has been widely studied, for its effects on reducing the frequency and severity of hot flashes, promoting restful sleep and reducing mild mood swings.
Stress Relief Complex – Because stress can elevate your body’s levels of cortisol, and continuously high levels have been linked to longterm health impacts – AND – Stress Relief Complex contains a blend of clinically tested ingredients and has been designed to support a calm, more relaxed state without causing drowsiness.
DO YOU NEED THE WOMEN’S STARTER SYSTEM?
Here are some questions to ask yourself:
1. Do you often use convenience foods or eat at fast food restaurants because of cost, convenience, or lack of time?
2. Do you often use “artificial” or “imitation” food products because they are low in cholesterol or fat?
…If your answer to either of these questions was YES, you would likely benefit from the nutrition insurance of Shaklee’s Vitalizer.
3. Are you able to consistently maintain adequate protein intake AND keep your cholesterol consumption below 400 mg per day?
…if not, you may wish to consider Shaklee’s Life Energizing Protein in place of some of the animal protein in your diet.
4. Do you consume at least 2 – 4 servings of fruits every day?
…If not, you’re probably not getting the carotenoids and vitamin C you need, Shaklee’s Vitalizer provides both.
5. Are you consuming 3-5 servings of fresh vegetables and 6-11 servings
of whole grains each day?
…If not, you may wish to consider the added insurance of the carotenoids & B vitamins in Vitalizer
6. Do you eat cold-pressed vegetable oils, raw seeds and nuts, and whole grain
products on a daily basis?
…If not, you’re probably not getting the vitamin E you need. Again, Vitalizer is the answer.
7. Do you eat cold water fish 2-3 times per week?
…If not, you’re probably not getting the omega-3 fatty acids you need to reduce the risk of heart disease. You will also find those in Vitalizer.
8. Do you have hot flashes or feel overwhelmed often?
…If so, you would probably benefit from Menopause Balance Complex or Stress Relief Complex.
If you are like me, you love working out when you can. At this point in my life, I mostly enjoy walking and yoga. Shaklee products are also used by the top Olympic Athletes. I’m no Olympian but I try my best and want to use products that are good for me.
What health products I take daily:
Life Strip (I take these multivitamin/minerals every morning.)
Life Energizing Shake (This protein powder is filled with quality protein, omegas, pre – & probiotics and I mix it with unsweetened almond milk as my breakfast Monday-Friday)
Pomegranate Energizing Tea (I take this around lunch time to get me through the afternoon)
Stress Relief Complex (I take this in the morning and at night)
Nutriferon (I take this immune booster every day)

2. Always works.
We guarantee utmost effectiveness.
Plenty of companies claim their products work. But at Shaklee, we have proof. You see it in the over 100 scientific papers, 125 of them published in peer-reviewed journals, that prove the effectiveness of Shaklee products. You see it in the over $250 million invested in clinical testing, research, and development. And you see it in the 2007 Landmark Study conducted in collaboration with researchers from the U.C. Berkeley School of Public Health that showed that people who took Shaklee supplements had markedly better health than those who took a single multivitamin or no supplements at all.
And the most enlightening proof of all is in the millions of real people who have lived healthier, more productive lives because of Shaklee. Before any Shaklee product reaches your hand, we’ve done the hard work to make sure it does what we say it does.
3. Always green.
We lead the environmental movement by example.
Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee founded our company on the principle of Living in Harmony with Nature®. That was over half a century ago, and we continue to lead by example. We were the first company in the world to be Climate Neutral™ certified to totally offset our carbon emissions resulting in a net-zero impact on the environment. Our corporate world headquarters is award-winning for its environmental design.
Through the sale of Shaklee Get Clean® Basic H2® in the last year alone, Shaklee has eliminated 2.7 billion bottles of conventional, ready-to-use 26-ounce window cleaner — if placed end-to-end, these bottles would wrap around the earth more than 18 times!
Shaklee also joins forces with others who care enough to create movements of change, like Jacques Cousteau, and 2004 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Dr. Wangari Maathai, the founder of The Green Belt Movement and the first person to win a Nobel Peace Prize for the environment.
So grateful to have partnered with this company!
Cheers to your health,
Andrea
