Dr. Shaklee pioneered the Wellness Movement. In 1915, at the tender age of 21, he created the first multivitamin (called Vitalized Minerals) for his patients. Almost 40 years later, in 1956, he founded Shaklee Corporation, the nation’s first natural nutrition company.
For the last 50 years, Shaklee has been the trailblazer in the world of wellness. Shaklee created the first soy isolate in the development of its revolutionary Instant and Energizing Soy Protein. Shaklee was also the first to offer clinically proven soluble fiber. Created the first fish oil supplement. The first natural sustained release vitamin C. The first patented nutritional skin care line.
Along the way, Shaklee also pioneered practices to ensure the safety, purity and efficacy of its products. Each year approximately 83,000 laboratory and quality assurance tests are performed on nutritional products and their ingredients alone!
Each Shaklee product must start with the finest raw materials and be formulated to deliver consistently. Each Shaklee product must deliver the correct dosage of key ingredients, based on clinical research. With Shaklee, you can rest assured that what’s on the label is in the bottle. With Shaklee, you never get too little or too much of the active ingredient. Or the wrong ingredient.
In its 50 years, Shaklee has never had to recall a product, and has never been warned or cited by the FDA. So you can be confident that dangerous or illegal ingredients won’t be making their way into Shaklee products.
Because every batch of raw ingredients used in Shaklee products are tested for authenticity, potency, contaminants, and heavy metals, you never have to worry about:
- contamination from solvents or chemicals
- contamination from bacteria, mold, pesticides or herbcidies that can be found in plants used to make herbs
- rancid oils in oil-based capsules
Don’t think this attention to safety is a standard practice. Many other manufacturers do no verification testing of raw materials or on their finished products. Furthermore, there are a lot of inferior ingredients coming in from unmonitored suppliers from around the world that sometimes exercise substandard quality control.
Some supplement producers seek out the cheapest raw materials to make cheap vitamins. Samples of nutrients received from “cheap” manufacturers are often badly contaminated with organic solvents used in the manufacturing process. Current quality control and quality assurance standards are not followed by most manufacturers, nor are they enforced by the Food and Drug Administration. So, cheap vitamins aren’t only questionable in terms of how good they work, but also in terms of safety. And, the bottom line is that if a product is inexpensive and ineffective, it can be more expensive overall.
When it comes to bioavailability. Nobody does the clinical research to prove that their nutritional products get into your bloodstream like Shaklee does. This means with Shaklee you never have to be concerned about product disinegration, bioavailibility or misleading or unsupported health claims on the bottle.
Dr. Shaklee also pioneered the Environmental Movement. Shaklee was one of the first biodegradable cleaners and Shaklee’s famous Basic-H was the first official Earth Day Product. Shaklee created one of the first laundry detergents to use no phosphates at a time when phosphates were all the rage for cleaning clothes. Shaklee Corporation was also the first U.S. company to be certified Climate Neutral, meaning its operations created a net zero impact on the environment.
Shaklee products are the best they can be - and the best you can buy. And the proof of their effectiveness is that people have been using the products faithfully for 50 years. If people didn’t feel better or look better, or experience better health using Shaklee’s nutritional and personal care products. Or if people didn’t get cleaner clothes, dishes or floors from using Shaklee’s environmental cleaning products, compared to what they get in stores, then the company would have gone out of business a long time ago.
The final reason for “Why Shaklee?” is in the 100% Shaklee Satisfaction Guarantee. If you don’t experience the desired results from a Shaklee nutritional, personal care, or household product, you may return the unused portion for a 100% refund. In addition to a money-back guarantee, Shaklee offers:
- 100% guarantee that the ingredients listed on the label are in the product
- 100% guarantee of quality-controlled product formulations that ensure product safety, purity, reliability, and product performance
- 100% guarantee that we use the finest quality ingredients available
Later this year, Shaklee will release a major clinical study on the health of people who have been taking Shaklee products for 20 years versus the general population. We think you’ll be quite surprised and pleased by the results.
We wish you and yours a Happy New Year!
