Farmville: Meet Shaklee!

The Shaklee Corporation has partnered with FarmVille to make available Shaklee Healthy Homes for all farm owners.

New on Farmville

The Shaklee Healthy Home is a smart addition to every FarmVille farm.  The Shaklee brand is excited to contribute to your health and wellness – for your family, your home, your farm, and your environment.

About Shaklee:

Shaklee represents the brand the very first Earth Day founders chose to be the official Earth Day green cleaner (Basic H).  And Shaklee has made a legacy of leadership in environmental contributions, including earning the designation as the very first Climate Neutral company in the United States.

Just like you do on the farm, the Shaklee family recognizes the importance of hard work, quality products and services, and the value of a dollar.  In all areas, from product research and manufacturing to customer service, we work hard at making a difference in your world.

The Healthy Home Kit

So what’s the buzz about a Healthy Home Kit being offered as part of FarmVille making available a Shaklee Healthy Home for your farm?

It’s something Shaklee wanted to do for you in honor of connecting with FarmVille.  And it’s a very sweet deal.

To introduce you to some high quality, high performance, economical (you WILL save lots of money), safe and green cleaning products – this package that is valued at about $90 retail is available to you for a very limited time for only $30.00*.

Important to note:  To you, the picture below may look like just a few bottles of cleaners.  So what?  How’s it different from anything you currently use?  That’s where we come in.  We will show you the difference.  We will talk to you about the difference if you like.

Farmville Family Benefits

It’s about trusting a brand to bring you safe products for you and your family – and giving you another way to make a contribution to a cleaner, safer planet.

It’s about giving you some real cleaning power – for your easy jobs to your most challenging!

It’s about helping you SAVE MONEY!

And it’s about helping your family be healthier.

Just one of these products, that comes in concentrate form that you mix a tiny bit with your own water, will save you HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS – and you will be so happy with all the things it cleans AND how well it cleans (look below for a link to 30 cleaning uses – and there are many more).

Farmville_shaklee_offer

What’s included:

1. Basic H2 All-Purpose Cleaner (16 oz) – the super concentrated cleaner that lasts a long, long time and saves you A LOT of money!

2. Two Spray Bottles - to mix Basic H (mix very small amounts with water – saves waste & manufacturing energy)

3. Get Clean Super Microfiber Cleaning Cloths – awesome to use

4. Get Clean Dish Wash Liquid Concentrate – (very gentle on your hands as it cleans and concentrated so you only use a little)

5. Get Clean Fresh Laundry Concentrate (32 oz) – (use just a little and it cleans great without fillers, plus a great spot remover)

6. Shaklee Energy™ Chews (tastes like candy and part of the natural nutrition line that helps you get that extra energy you need to Spring Clean!!)

*Shaklee has never had an opportunity for new customers like this, and it is for a very limited time.  Part of the savings mentioned above is that you become a full member of the Shaklee member price club at no extra cost.

To explain more about Shaklee:  we offer health and wellness products, including (in my opinion) the very best green cleaning products on the market.  We sell at retail, but we also have a membership (similar to Sam’s Club or Costco) that helps you save 15% when you buy products + other savings during special sales offered to members.

The normal charge for membership is a one-time (not annual) fee of $19.95.  In honor of connecting with the Farmville Family, Shaklee is waiving that fee when you place a $30.00 order.  So, when you purchase the Healthy Home Kit for $30, that qualifies you for free membership and gives you that $90 value for only $30.00.

Here’s a video to tell you more about Shaklee green cleaners and how they can make a difference on your farm!  You are encouraged to call or email us with any questions or to discuss (contact info is on top right of this page).

Cause Fundraising: Give To Your Cause

DDoxey 12.00 Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4

Something New    Something Exciting    Please Share!!

If you work with or volunteer at a non-profit organization, or support a cause that needs ongoing funds, we want to help!  Shaklee has a new Cause Fundraising program that is being offered to registered non-profits.  And 76% of consumers say that they would re-direct their spending to a brand that will contribute to their cause.

More detailed information is on the website shown below.  In addition, we have a brochure and other literature available. 

Cause Fundraising with Shaklee is similar to programs that Target, Macy’s and other companies offer when they contribute a portion of sales to a charitable organization.  The difference is that not only is the program ongoing, earning funds for the organization month after month – there is opportunity to earn significantly more than the traditional 5 to 10 percent that other brands offer.  

There is no cost for the non-profit organization to participate.  Each non-profit is given an order website where supporters of the group can order and pay for products that are shipped directly to their homes.  No payments or products are handled by the non-profits and the unique order website is provided at no cost.

Shaklee manufactures at least a few products that all people use for themselves, their family or their home – including cleaning your home.  Replacing your window and multi-purpose cleaner with one Shaklee product can not only clean your home as well or better than your present cleaner, it can save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars per year – and rid your home of toxins, chemicals and fumes that aren’t healthy to have there. 

Changing brands, and trying the Shaklee brand, means that your cause can earn funds when you buy products - and continue to earn when you re-order.

Shaklee is a leading manufacturer of green products for the home, including green cleaning and water purification.  Shaklee is the #1 Natural Nutrition company in the United States, offering a complete line of natural nutrition products.  Safe and natural skin care and personal care products are part also part of this brand that enjoys the highest customer retention rate in the industry.  All products are 100% satisfaction, money-back guaranteed. 

As the Cause Fundraising sponsor, I help the non-profit organization by educating supporters on the fundraising opportunity and the products, and provide the support needed for a successful program.  Shaklee provides customer service in regard to orders, payments, and product satisfactio

If you know a group that can benefit, please pass this word along.  I would be happy to discuss our Cause Fundraising program with you or a non-profit group.

Small Business Tax Breaks for High Income Earners

Are you making a good income?

And paying a lot of your money in income taxes?

Would you like to learn about how you can keep more of your money and at the same time build something of your own?

If you are part of corporate America, maybe you would welcome putting some efforts into building or growing ‘your own thing’! It is part of the American Dream to own your own business – something small to help with taxes or buy some extras OR something larger if that is your goal.  Even leave the business to your family, as a legacy, years down the road.

Who knows, you could be like Dan, or Rick, George or many others  who started a small home business part-time and later left corporate America when they started making significantly more by being their own boss than they did through their J-O-B.

To buy a franchise or start a brick and mortar business you will earn tax deductions but you will also need a huge investment and have a lot of headaches such as employees, a ton of your time required, and even customer service issues.

A much better alternative is to start a small home business where you partner with an established brand by becoming an independent distributor – that still gives you small business tax deductions, still offers lucrative money to be made if that is your goal, and has a much lower price point to get started.

Orders are taken and shipped for you and there is a whole customer service system in place.  You focus on marketing an already established brand with the highest customer retention rate in the industry – and you only work your business as much as you choose.

Once you have made the decision to start a home business opportunity, the main thing that is required to enjoy home business tax deductions is that you have the intent to earn income.  Your  whole initial investment is tax deductible your first year, as well as many other expenses that you already pay each month.

Starting to sound good? We have made this very easy for you.  After you purchase your small home business program for a nominal charge, the next thing you do is to start saving receipts that you can deduct from your income.  NOW, things that you were already paying for become tax deductible.

Are you using your computer for your home business?

Your cell phone?

Think about this: you are excited about keeping more of your money instead of paying high taxes.  You are excited about that extra money and what it can do for you.

Hopefully you want to pass the word about this tax saving/income producing opportunity that you found to keep more of your own money and even increase your annual income.  Others will be interested in the same.

So do you talk about your home business – and all of these benefits – when you travel, eat out or go to the gym, etc.?  These are now tax-deductible expenses.

Don’t worry.. you don’t have to keep this to yourself!  There’s enough opportunity to go around – you will want to pay this forward and tell others that can benefit.

Every time you talk about the products your represent or the income/tax savings opportunity, it is a small business tax deduction. Wherever you are (think about your present entertainment expenses and the fact that there are people there that you can ‘talk casually about business with – just like lots of business deals are discussed and closed on the golf course and other entertainment events), and whatever you are spending, it is now a small business tax break.  It is also how you earn more income because when you find others that are interested your business grows.

Books you read about your business, any training you elect to take,  your vehicle, your cable bill, your home and a lot of other expenses may now qualify as deductions.

You are afforded all of these because you own a small home business. Record keeping is not hard and does not take much of your time.  The benefits are far greater than the work involved and this is a FUN business.

You are the boss. You choose how to run your business.  You choose how much you work or how much extra money you want to make.  You choose how much fun to have.  You choose if you would like to earn a new car (yes! we have a car program).  You choose if you want to travel (we are going to San Francisco, Atlantis Resort Bahamas and Bora Bora next year!).  You choose how many dollars you save on your tax bill.

Can You Handle 100 Glasses of Wine Each Day?

Or more specifically, the 'effect' of 100 glasses of wine each day?


Resveratrol, a natural substance found in red wine, has been shown in scientific laboratory testing to impact cellular aging.


Last winter Barbara Walters had a television special about anti-aging research. The world's most famous scientific expert on anti-aging discussed with Barbara Walters the exciting new research that taps into the particular genes that protect us against aging. This very same doctor is now on our brand's Scientific Advisory Board. Since an anti-aging pharmaceutical product is still years away from the market, he found the science and quality this brand represents and joined us.



The number one natural nutrition company in the United States has spent years of scientific research on such a complex resveratrol product. The result is a cellular anti-aging tonic that combines the optimal amount of resveratrol with other unique ingredients, from a super grape, to make a cellular tonic that represents a revolutionary breakthrough in anti-aging research.


Resveratrol from this brand, in a cold-extracted optimal amount, combined with a unique profile of polyphenols from a special grape that is the only one in nature to have an extra chromosome, is unique to any product in the world. That extra chromosome is associated with impacting the aging process the same as resveratrol. However, simply having the beneficial ingredients is not sufficient. The formulation and the purity are key to delivering results that provide benefits.


To learn more about living 25 (quality) years longer and feeling 25 years younger, please visit the home of the world's first cellular anti-aging tonic.

Beijing Olympics Featured Athletes with Healthy Bodies


It was an enjoyable two weeks of watching Olympic athletes competing in their chosen sports. Watching Michael Phelps and the other swimmers, Shawn Johnson and Nastia Liukin with their teammates, and the Men's and Women's Basketball teams were the highlight of my viewing time.


The way these athletes perform so successfully is absolutely amazing. Of course what we see is the glory of the Olympic competition, and what they know is a tremendous amount of hard work, dedication, sacrifice and commitment to their sport and their body.


Taking care of one's body and keeping it in ultimate shape for the pounding it takes is no small matter. Olympic athletes are most probably well versed in optimal nutrition including nutrition supplements.


While we are not all going to be Olympic athletes, it is in our best interest to be active. Physical activity is good for our bodies and gives us all kinds of healthy benefits.


The number one nutrition company in the United States, and the brand used by numerous Olympic athletes, including Jessica Mendoza, USA Softball, and Eli Bremer, Modern Pentathlon, here in the 2008 summer olympics, has announced a four-product nutrition foundation system, including a Vitalized pack, that is unique to any brand in the world.


Another component of the nutrition foundation is the new cellular anti-aging tonic that was just introduced on 8-8-08. This product is a revolutionary breakthrough in anti-aging research and is a natural food supplement. It contains resveratrol as part of a patent-pending formulation that is 10 times more powerful than resveratrol alone.


Healthy bodies require good choices in nutrition and can benefit greatly with the use of quality natural nutrition supplements.


I look forward to 2012 in London (summer games are my favorite) and will focus on my own healthy body until then!

Introducing an Anti-Aging tonic that works at your cellular level


A revolutionary new product has been introduced and this brand is once again at the forefront of scientific research. Shaklee Independent Distributors represent scientists who have designed a way to create a unique blend of ingredients to fight cellular aging.


For a brief, exciting introduction.. watch this video about how to Feel 25 years younger and Live 25 years longer.


What sets this brand's products apart is the unique blends of ingredients and the science behind those formulations. With this new tonic, scientists took the formidable research on resveratrol to a whole new level.


By combining key ingredients with resveratrol, this tonic can impact all four of the mechanisms of aging that occur at the cellular level. No other company or brand has a product like this.


Let's look at how the tonic affects these mechanisms of cellular aging:


Protects and repairs cellular DNA


Positively impacts genetic regulators which help fight cellular aging


Promotes mitochondrial biogenesis, which helps increase the power production within the cells


Reduces the formation of AGE proteins that can gradually clog up your cells


While specific scientific detail may be hard for many of us to understand, that is why we have always enjoyed the benefit of having a team of highly qualified scientists behind this brand. This has resulted in more than 50 years of uniquely effective products based on solid science and research. We continue to use these products because they work!


To learn more and get the breakdown of the science behind this anti-aging tonic, visit www.yourhealthwebsite.net. There is an MD Resource box there for medical professionals as well.


The release of this new tonic is truly a revolutionary breakthrough because it harnesses the power of a unique polyphenol blend to impact the aging process. The special blend of ingredients promote cellular longevity, increase cellular energy, fight free radicals, and promote good health and well being. In addition, the ingredients support heart health, brain health, cardiovascular function, joint health and enhance immunity. That's a powerful punch!


Feel free to request additional printed material, audios, videos and opportunity to discuss the new anti-aging tonic.


I invite you to help spread the word to anyone you know who can benefit.. it really does feel great to help others feel their best. Who knew we could have the opportunity to help someone live 25 years longer and feel 25 years younger?

Ultra Marathon Man Chooses The Best Nutrition Brand


Ultra Marathon Man, Dean Karnazes,is a warrior who chooses products from the #1 Natural Nutrition company to train and compete in endurance running.


Dean's blog at runner's world tells about how he was selected to carry the Olympic torch while it passed through his hometown of San Francisco, CA.


A recent entry announced the nationwide film premiere of the 50 Marathons movie and encouraged those runners who are attending to 'run' to the show! Not sure what theater owners will think about that, but you can see more on the movie website.


Dean's impressive accomplishements have inspired many, from young kids to adults, to become better runners. They include: Winning the Atacama Crossing, a brutal 6-day race across Chile’s most inhospitable desert; winning the Badwater Ultramarathon, 135 miles through the bowels of Death Valley in July; running a hellish minus-40-degree race through the South Pole (in running shoes); running 50 marathons in 50 states in 50 consecutive days and finishing with the NYC Marathon (which he completed in 3 hours flat); swimming across the San Francisco Bay; climbing Yosemite’s Half Dome; mountain-biking for 24 hours straight; and surfing the monstrous waves off Hawaii’s coast.


Karnazes' philosophies fit in well with our #1 Natural Nutrition company's philosophies. Quality of the brand, authenticity of products, and the science and research behind the products stand out to this athlete. For an accomplished top athlete like Dean to believe in and use this clinically-proven brand as part of his regimen is a great example for younger athletes and their parents who are searching for good nutrition for them.


There is a podcast interview with Dean Karnazes where you can learn more about him.

Dementia and Omega 3's

This post will address both how omega 3 fatty acids can help with dementia and why you want to do your homework when you choose a fish oil brand.


When Alzheimer's disease hits a family member, it is quite devastating. When your brain is shutting down it destroys your life.


While we have known that omega-3 fatty acids are important for brain development in the very young, it has only been recently that studies are verifying that omega-3 fatty acids can help keep our minds sharp as we get older.


Just this morning I read an article that reported how "two studies published in the November 2007 issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition show that diets high in omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA and DHA reduce the risk of developing dementia and Alzheimer's disease, as we get older".


One study involved people who ate at least 6 ounces of fish twice a week or more. Those folks had significantly higher scores in all cognitive function tests.


The other study measured blood levels of omega 3 fatty acids which is a good indicator when consumed from both diet and supplements. The group with the highest blood levels of omega-3 fatty acids produced the best results.


An important consideration is to evaluate the source of the omega 3 fatty acids that will be most beneficial to us. What is important is that long chain fatty acids like EPA and DHA, found in fish oil, provide the cognitive benefits for people, and what is found in our diets is mostly the shorter chain fatty acid ALA.


The key here is that our bodies must convert ALA to EPA and DHA, and we have to consume alot of the former to result in enough of the latter to get the benefits. This makes it very hard to get what we need from most food sources, and confirms the importance of getting the EPA and DHA that benefits our bodies so much from cold water fish or fish oil supplements.


In regard to eating fish as part of our diets, the concern with consuming enough to get the benefits we need is that we do not have toxin-free farm raised fish available. Plus many people simply do not eat fish (or enough of it) consistently each week.


There are many benefits of fish oil supplements in the areas of heart disease and conditions involving inflammation such as arthritis and even asthma. With the new research regarding Alzsheimer's disease it is even more desirable to supplement our diets with fish oil.


Now we come to brand choice, and the importance of purity and potency. The video below will share the benefits of the brand we represent here and what sets it apart from other choices:
