( There is a video on his link. It's pretty scary, folks. But the good news is that Shaklee has always been there. Always safe. Always green. Always works!!)

30% of Multivitamins Don't Provide What They Say

More than 30 percent of a medicine chest of multivitamins failed to contain what they said they did, or were contaminated with lead, according to a report by the private company ConsumerLab.com     Among the 46 multivitamins analyzed, those that failed the test had far more or less of an ingredient than stated on the label. And several, including three supplements for children, contained more than the upper limit recognized as healthy by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). Unhealthily excessive dosages were found for ingredients such as vitamin A, folic acid, niacin and zinc, according to the report by ConsumerLab.com, a White Plains, N.Y., firm that provides consumer information and independent evaluations of health and nutrition products.

Brands included in the report are All One, Carlson, Centrum, CVS, Eniva, Equate (Wal-Mart), Flintstones, Garden of Life, Glaceau Vitamin Water, GNC, Halo Purely for Pets, Jamieson, Juice Plus, Kirkland (Costco), Life Extension, Li’l Critters Gummy Vites, Member’s Mark (Sam’s Club), Metagenics, Multi-betic, Natrol, Nature Made, Nature’s Bounty, Nature’s Plus, NOW, NSI (Vitacost), One-A-Day,  Opti-Men, Pet Tabs, Pregnancy Plus, Propel, Pure Encapsulations, Puritan’s Pride, Purity Products, Rainbow Light, Rite Aid, Sobe Life Water, Solgar, Swanson, Target, Trader Darwin’s (Trader Joe’s), TwinLab, USANA, Vitamin World, Weil, and Yummi Bears (Hero Nutritionals), 21st Century Pet Nutrition.
That's why we have been sharing the Shaklee difference for over 30 years. But check it out for yourself. The people, the products and the science behind it. There is a consistent ongoing commitment, 75 employed qualified scientists, scientifically proven-- we can show you the clinical studies. .
 We have the www.landmarkstudy.com.  Shaklee is the only company in the world that has a study done on people who have used the vitamins for 20 years!!!   It actually showed in some cases it was better to take none at all rather than the wrong multivitamin.  WOW!  This study above confirms that.

If you have not tried Shaklee nutritional supplements, we invite you to do it for 3 months and see what we mean.
There is no risk....only side benefits, that's for sure!!
Where to start?
