<<‘Tis the season to be shopping online…

It’s been brought to our attention that an adware virus downloaded to some computers is affecting the shopping experience of Shaklee Family Members on MyShaklee.com, Shaklee.com, and the PWS shopping environments.

Our first and most important advice is to purchase, install and keep your anti-virus software up-to-date.

What has been reported by individuals whose computers are infected with this adware is that when a visitor to any of the Shaklee shopping platforms clicks a link, types into a form, or simply clicks on the page, a series of windows open containing buying options for companies that are not affiliated with Shaklee Corporation. The adware is sophisticated enough to mimic some or all of the Shaklee branding, including logos.  The window may pop up and offer you a survey to complete, after which you’ll be redirected to another non-Shaklee web site. 

If you experience a series of pop-up windows during your shopping experience, please be aware that none of our shopping areas produce browser pop-ups like the ones shown in this screen shot:  http://images.shaklee.com/shaklee/images/popup.png.

Shaklee Meal in a Bar - AWESOME!

Soooooooo, while in LA I caught up with an old friend. He is definitely healthy and fit so I gave him some Shaklee Meal Bars to try. Yesterday I asked him if he tried them. Here is his response: 

"I did. They were awesome. Filling and they tasted delicious. Not a lot of those type of bars taste good. These were great." 

Thank you, Danny!!!!!!  

This is my favorite, White Chocolate Cinnamon - at the gym after my workout, because I was hungry and because we are supposed to eat our protein within 30 min. of a workout. The other flavors, which I also love, are Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip and Blueberry Almond. You can get yours here.

Celebrating 100 Years of The Shaklee Effect™

Celebrating 100 Years of The Shaklee Effect™

Nearly one hundred years ago in 1915, a young Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee took the initial step in creating what would become one of the first multivitamin supplements in the world. Vitalized Minerals didn't make any headlines; only Dr. Shaklee's chiropractic patients had the good fortune to use the product. Nonetheless, something was set in motion that would eventually change the lives of millions. With that one first step, Dr. Shaklee helped pioneer the natural health movement, which today is growing all over the world. That is Dr. Shaklee's Shaklee Effect, and we are privileged to participate in it each and every day by taking small, simple steps that add up to a very big result.

This year, at our Shaklee Live event in Long Beach, we will kick off a year-long celebration of The Shaklee Effect and 100 Years of Innovation. Together, we will reaffirm our commitment to carry on Dr. Shaklee's legacy of innovation, to share and amplify his Effect, and to continue creating healthier lives for the next 100 years.

You can join us in the Shaklee Effect here. 

There are some things you can only experience LIVE!!

Maria Shriver to speak at Shaklee Live 2014!!! As well as Nobel Prize Winner, Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn, and much more - Dr. Bruce Daggy, Dr. Jamie McManus, CEO Roger Barnett, Sloan Barnett, and more! Entertainer and motivational speaker Jason Hewlett, and, Singer Jewel will entertain us!

Soon, I will tell you all about what I learned, including the introduction of THREE NEW PRODUCTS!!! One for BRAIN HEALTH that Shaklee has been researching and developing for YEARS!! Here's what CEO Roger Barnett has to say about one of the new products: <<These days, I’m experiencing three times more focus and memory…Come to ‪#‎ShakleeLive‬ and find out what I've been taking.>>  

If you can attend, there's still time, and it's the best way to get all the info first hand. I will try, but there is no way I can really share the entire great experience, unless you are there with me!

Hello Shaklee Family!

I am deeply honored and excited to welcome Maria Shriver to Shaklee Live 2014 as our special guest speaker.

Maria is the mother of four, a Peabody® and Emmy®-winning journalist and producer, a six-timeNew York Times® best-selling author, and NBC News Special Anchor reporting on the shifting roles, emerging power and evolving needs of women in modern life.

She is the producer of the groundbreaking and award-winning series of Shriver Reports which explore and chronicle the impact on women of cultural and social changes, most recently A Woman’s Nation Pushes Back from the Brinkand the 2014 documentary Paycheck to Paycheck: The Life and Times of Kristina Gilbertwhich was recently nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special.

During her tenure as California’s First Lady from 2003 to 2010, Maria spearheaded what became the nation’s premier forum for women, The Women’s Conference.

She has also used her influence and journalistic abilities to spotlight the profound impact of Alzheimer’s disease and is one of the nation’s leading advocates for families struggling with this devastating disease. She was instrumental in the 2010 passage of the National Alzheimer’s Project Act and serves on the advisory board of the Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health in Las Vegas.

Maria’s work is informed by her belief that all of us have the ability to be what she calls Architects of Change — people who see a problem in their own life or the community around them, then step out of their comfort zone and do what it takes to create the solution.

We are so excited to have her at Shaklee Live 2014 because we feel her own life’s work beautifully aligns with the spirit of The Shaklee Effect™ – the powerful idea that each of us can take small steps every day that can lead to a transformational impact on our health, our families, and our communities.

Join me at Shaklee Live in Long Beach to hear from this incredible journalist, author, activist and architect for change. I know you will be deeply inspired by her message of empowerment, growth and social change.

	Warm regards,
	Roger Barnett
	Shaklee Chairman and CEO

Understanding Cellular Aging

Cellular Aging 

To answer the age-old question of why humans age, scientists have focused their research on the cells of the body. Chronological age is often not a good measure of a person's health and well-being, with some people looking (and acting) younger than their age, while others are just the opposite. The health of our cells may very well be the key to feeling healthy as we age. 

Aging typically means loss of muscle strength, bone density, lung function, and memory, while our risk for conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, dementia, and cancer all increase. A graph of incidence of disease versus age illustrates this point nicely: many chronic disease conditions are rare when we are young but their incidence begins to increase around age 50. To scientists who study aging, this upsurge around age 50 suggests that there might be a common reason underlying the onset of these age-related diseases and that reason may be cellular aging.  

Driver JA, Djoussé L, Logroscino G, Gaziano JM, Kurth T. Incidence of cardiovascular disease and cancer in advanced age: prospective cohort study. BMJ.2008 Dec 9;337:a2467. PMID: 19066258

When we are born, we start out with healthy cells; damage tends to accumulate as our cells are exposed to ultraviolet radiation, environmental toxins, stress, or a poor diet. The more cells are exposed to these insults, the more potential for damage to those cells. It is this accumulated damage that eventually crosses a threshold that may lead to recognizable disease.¹ It is critical that our cells are able to first defend themselves against these attacks, and then repair any damage should it occur. 

One key to understanding cellular defense is knowing that cells require antioxidants and certain nutrients in the right amounts in order to be able to perform their normal functions and to protect and repair themselves.²

If overall health is really is a reflection of cellular health, then it is important to maximize the nutrition and lifestyle changes that help those cells defend themselves.

Steps to Slow Aging Naturally

Steps to Slow Aging Naturally

The thousands of studies that have been done on aging are beginning to point to one inescapable conclusion: we may be able to modify our aging process by changing what we consume and how we live.

Here are the steps everyone can take to naturally slow the aging process:

Be active
In recent studies regular exercise has been associated with a reduction in risk for breast cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and colorectal cancer. One study even suggested that that regular exercise is associated with a longer lifespan, especially when combined with weight redution.¹

Reduce your stress
Sustained stressors such as emotional trauma, feeling threatened or insecure, and even natural disasters appear to be associated with increased aging biomarkers.² You can work to reduce the stress you feel from those events by practicing relaxation techniques such as meditation, breathing exercises, and biofeedback. Walking or jogging is another great stress reducer—and my personal favorite.

Maintain your ideal weight
Being overweight is associated with a wide variety of age-related diseases, including diabetes, colon cancer, gallstones, hypertension, heart disease, and stroke.³ Achieving your ideal weight can be hard, but there are many tools available that can help you reduce your calories, maintain your lean body mass, and lose body fat. If you have a significant amount of weight to lose, try working towards losing 10 pounds over the next two months—that is doable.

Make time for sleep
Lack of sleep can have devastating effects on our health, impacting our mood,⁴ our memories,⁵ and even cold and flu resistance.⁶ To improve sleep, consider having a consistent sleep schedule. Use your bed only for sleep, try a "white noise generator" such as a fan, avoid caffeine after noon, and limit alcohol intake in the last 2-3 hours before bedtime.

Stay connected
The role of good social relationships is important to our overall health. As we age, having good social ties is linked to less depression, better cognitive skills,⁷ and even a longer life.⁸

Consume the right nutrients:

Eat fruits and vegetables 

Since most Americans don't eat the recommended seven servings of fruits and vegetables per day, the opportunity for improving health (and longevity) by improving diet is great—just by adding some berries to breakfast and an extra vegetable to your dinner plate.⁹

Take a multivitamin 

B₁₂, B₆, C, E, niacin, folic acid, iron, or zinc all seem to mimic damage to DNA from radiation.10 Everyone should consider a good multivitamin to help supplement their base nutritional needs.

Load up on polyphenols

Polyphenols are found in many fruits, vegetables, green tea, black tea, red wine, coffee, chocolate, olives, and extra virgin olive oil. They are plant-based nutrients that have antioxidant benefits and help protect against cellular aging.¹¹

• Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG): A flavanol found in tea, it has been shown to act as an antioxidant and possibly protect against aging.
• Muscadine grapes: The grapes possess one of the highest antioxidant levels among fruits.12 They contain a high concentration of polyphenols, but unlike other grapes they also contain a high amount of ellagitannin and ellagic acid.13 Extracts of muscadine grape have been studied for their ability to help support a normal inflammation response after consumption of after a high-fat, high-carbohydrate meal and act as antioxidants.^14,15
  
• Resveratrol: Studies suggest that resveratrol (a type of polyphenol) may also slow cellular aging.¹⁶ 
  
  
  How fast you age may truly be in your hands. There is a lot you can do starting today to help slow cellular aging.

How Fast are you Aging? Take the quiz!

How Fast are you Aging?

Have you ever noticed that some people seem to age faster than others? Scientists are learning that we may actually be able to slow the aging process by changing some of our unhealthy habits. To find out what might be contributing to faster aging, take our quick quiz: Scientists who study aging have found there are many things that can speed your aging:
 

High Stress
Stress and anxiety are normal parts of life and usually aren't a problem until they become everyday events. Stress raises many hormones, including cortisol, which can impact the way we look and how fast we age.¹ In a recent study, women with a high level of anxiety had biological markers of women who were six years older.²

Smoking
When you look at the faces of people who are long-term smokers, you can see that smoking destroys their skin. Smoking is associated with many chronic diseases, including heart disease and stroke, as well as lung and other cancers.³

Too Much Sun Exposure
While the sun is good for us in small amounts as a great source for vitamin D production in our bodies, ultraviolet radiation is also well known to age skin prematurely.⁴

Poor Sleep
Short-term sleep deprivation (such as having a bad night's sleep) has a variety of adverse effects, including raising blood pressure, impairing blood sugar control, and increasing inflammation, which all can accelerate aging. But when people don't sleep well over a long period of time (less than 7 hours of sleep) they are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and an increase in all-cause mortality.⁵

Eating Poorly
Many foods may even accelerate aging, including trans fats and processed and hydrogenated oils.⁶ Refined sugars produce a chemical reaction called advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) in our bodies and these have been tied to serious health conditions.⁷

Overweight
Obesity has been called a state of chronic inflammation and oxidative stress⁸ and is associated with a variety of diseases, including diabetes, colon cancer, gallstones, hypertension, heart disease, and stroke.^9,10

Not Exercising
Sedentary lifestyles have long been associated with being less healthy. People who don't exercise are more likely to be overweight, have higher risk for diabetes, heart disease, and even certain cancers.¹¹
