I've just been doing this for 9 nights, and haven't had even one sleepless night--so I felt compelled to share this...even though it's early in my sleep trial...as it's also working for others this quickly (even the first night) as well. One of the gals said it's taking the anxiety out of her days, too! I've used Stress Relief Complex for years during the day and have appreciated the results from that, but didn't think I needed it at night".If you've had a real difficult time getting to sleep, we recommend giving this remedy of two Stress Relief Complex and three Gentle Sleep Complex a try.

Nutrition for the Skin

Nutrition is important for maintaining healthy, younger looking skin. Neglecting it may make your skin age considerably faster. Deficiencies of certain nutrients, such as vitamins A, B-Complex, and essential fatty acids can impair the skin's ability to renew itself. In today's world, your skin is at risk from the accelerating number of free radicals in the environment. Harsh winters and too much sunlight in the summer add to the acceleration of aging.

Fortunately there are "superhero" nutrients-vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients-that come to the rescue and limit the amount of harm to skin cells caused by oxidative damage. The following Shaklee nutrition products will provide the nutrients to build healthy skin cells from the inside. Approaching skin from the inside through nutrition, and then outside by using products like our skin care system and our natural cosmetics will yield significantly younger, healthier TOTALLY BEAUTIFUL skin!!

Our Nutrition Program for Healthier, Younger Looking Skin:

a) Our Complete Supplements:

This revolutionary daily strip of vitamins doesn't just provide the clinically proven foundation for a longer, healthier life; the nutrients also do wonders for your skin. The multivitamin provides the proper balance of all nutrients, including important trace minerals. Your body cannot produce minerals, they must be provided in your diet. The B-COMPLEX in reduces stress reactions in the skin, like canker sores and shingles. Lip problems, especially cracks at the corners of lips, indicate B-complex deficiency. Is your skin too oily or to dry? B-Complex will help balance your skin. The VITAMIN C will help with collagen construction and tissue integrity. It helps your body resist infection. Sufficient vitamin C will help with skin resiliency. Environmental pollution and stress destroys vitamin C and a deficiency in vitamin C can increase allergies, contribute to wrinkles and sagginess and other skin problems The VITAMIN E delays the aging process, and de-activates free radicals. It tones muscles, improves elasticity, increases circulation-protects cell membranes, assists body in utilizing oils, and relieves itchiness. Leathery skin may also be improved by Vitamin E.The CAROTOMAX provides a complex of carotenoids, including Beta Carotene, which is the precursor for Vitamin A production---no one has healthy skin without sufficient Vitamin A. Beta Carotene is the best way to get Vitamin A because it is stored in all the cells in the body, not just in the liver.The OMEGA 3's help provide essential fatty acids. Your skin needs these oils to stay soft and supple, especially if you are on a low fat diet. Omega 3's have also been found to be very helpful with psoriasis and other skin inflammations. (with Psoriasis considering supplementing with our omega 3 supplement in addition to the complete vitamin strip). For more information on these products or to order it online go HERE

Why Supplement?

There are so many reasons why supplementing your diet with critical nutrients is essential to your health today. For starters, we live in a high-stress, high-toxic, highly-processed, fast-food, over-medicated, over-farmed, nutrient depleted modern world.

Today's refined high-fat, high-sugar diet alone contributes to major nutrient deficiencies that leads to irritability, stress, lethargy and sleep disorders. In addition, more than 80 million pounds of antibiotics are consumed each year in the U.S. and not just from prescription drugs! Residues of antibiotics are detected in livestock, farm-fed fish and commercial eggs. Antibiotics kill friendly bacteria in our intestines. We need these friendly bacteria help our bodies to absorb nutrients - especially B-vitamins. Such deficiencies can result in a variety of nervous and digestive conditions.

Our nation's soil is often nutrient depleted from over-farming and poor crop rotation. In one U.S. government survey, levels of essential nutrients in crops have declined up to 68% over a four-year period. And when you consider that over 90% of the population doesn't eat the way the Food Pyramid Guide suggests, the need to supplement one's diet with high-quality whole food supplements becomes obvious.

In determining a good nutrition program you'll want to factor in unique lifestyles and different age groups as everyone faces their own dietary and nutritional challenges. For instance...

Are you indoors most of the day? Invalids, shift workers and computer "nerds" often need more Vitamin-D. Most fair skinned people need at least 20 minutes of direct sunlight at noon on 25% of your total body surface each day to maintain adequate blood levels of Vitamin D. If you're mostly indoors, then our Vita-lea multivitamin which contains 100% of the RDA for Vitamin D, as well as 22 other essential vitamins and minerals at clinically proven levels, would be a good choice for you. For more information on the world's most complete multivitamin/multimineral go HERE

Are you an athlete or do you do physical labor? Athletes and those with highly physical jobs perspire more, leading to a loss of key minerals and nutrients. Plus, because of their activity levels, some folks need to consume larger amounts of nutrient-rich foods. Additional nutritional supplementation is usually required. For more information on Sports Nutrition and our sports nutrition products go HERE

Are you a teenager? Teenagers experience rapid growth spurts that place high demands on nutritional resources. And the teenage diet, which often consists of fast foods and high-sugar sodas, doesn't offer the proper nutritional support. Data shows between 30% and 50% of adolescents aged 12 to 16 have dietary intakes below 2/3 of the recommend daily averages for Vitamins A, C, calcium and iron. For more information on teen health, including recommend supplementation programs for children of different ages, go HERE

Are you a woman of child-bearing age? Women who are pregnant have significantly higher demand for nutrients to ensure the healthy growth of their baby. And in non-pregnant women, research has shown that up to 60% of women suffering from symptoms of PMS such as headaches, bloating, irritability and lethargy can benefit from supplementing with B-Complex, GLA, Alfalfa, Soy Protein, Calcium and Magnesium. For more information on Women's Health and the supplements needed go HERE

Are you over fifty years old? As you age, your body loses its ability to fully absorb nutrients, particularly iron, calcium and zinc. Fiber intake is often lower and chances are, the older you get the more prescription drugs you are taking - all of which highlight the need for additional nutritional supplementation. We provide Vita-Lea Gold a specially formulated version of Vita-Lea that takes into consideration the nutritional needs of people over 50. For more information go HERE

Do you smoke? Chew tobacco? Drink Alcoholic beverages? Take Oral Contraceptives? Eat meals of microwaved food? All of these lifestyle factors dramatically increases your need for nutrients that diet alone just can't provide including a greater need for antioxidants. For a powerful anti-oxidant solution go HERE

Finally, there is simply YOU and your genetics, your unique lifestyle and environment. Who you are genetically, how you live your life and where you live your life can greatly impact the nutrients your body needs to maintain good health. Wide and significant fluctuations in individual nutrient requirements from the "official" Recommended Daily Allowances are common with each individual.

Why Us?There's a reason why we are the largest natural nutrition company in the United States. Our nutrition is bioavailable, which means that the products break down so that the nutrients can be absorbed in your body. And the products work, because no other company adheres to the same level of scientific and ethical standards as those that we demand of our self. Our products are guaranteed to contain the ingredients as stated on its labels, so you know what you are getting, each and every time!

There are other companies that manufacture good supplements. Few however, begin to approach the level of scientific proof of performance for their products or are as meticulous about quality control from the farm to the consumer as we do.

The result of such self-scrutiny can be seen in the groundbreaking Landmark Study, published in the peer-reviewed Nutrition Journal.

Over 300 long-time users (all using our prodicts for over 20 years) were randomly selected and thoroughly tested. Their results were then compared with national published data of studies done on those who take no supplements or who take other brands of multivitamins. Our users were healthier in 20 different categories. Benefits ranged from improved energy, enhanced immune function, better muscle function, better bone and nervous system health. Our users not only had a better overall perception of their health, they had higher blood nutrient levels and HDL cholesterol (the good cholesterol), as well as lower C-reactive protein, homosysteines and triglycerides. Also of note was the fact that Our users over the age of 65 on average used less than one prescription drug, while the average 65 year old person is on ten prescriptions or more!

This Landmark Study is the first independent, clinical, peer-reviewed study of its kind to conclude that our users are healthier than any other identifiable group! No other company has put their products to this type of scrutiny - which clearly answers why choosing our vitamins, herbs and whole food supplements is the wisest choice you can make for the health of your future.

Why Now?Besides the fact that it's a new year and an ideal time to get started on developing healthier habits, now is a great time because we are living in a new golden era of nutrition. A new era that brings a shift to where specific functional foods, also called "nutraceuticals", are being proven for the prevention of chronic diseases and for providing health benefits beyond the traditional nutrients it contains.

From Our Alfalfa Complex as a diuretic, to CoQHeart as a cardiac function enhancer, Nutriferon for immune modulation, OmegaGuard for lowering cholesterol, and Glucose Regulation Complex (to name just a few) for hyperglycemia and as a regulator for Type 2 Diabetes, our functional food formulas have been designed to deliver health benefits that approach those of patented medications-without the side effects of medications.

This new golden age of nutrition is not in competition with traditional medical approaches, as they are in two separate fields of endeavor. The traditional medical establishment is trained to treat disease. Our company’s nutraceuticals, herbs and whole food supplements are all about building health.

Finally, new scientific discoveries are happening every year that advance the field of nutritional supplementation. Discoveries resulting from the human genome project are leading to greater individualized nutrition supplemental choices. And breakthrough scientific advances, like the development of our new Vitalizer with its multi-patented S.M.A.R.T delivery system that produces 200% better absorption of ingredients compared to any previous formulas, are completely redefining the power of nutritional supplementation.

So there's never been a better time to get started building optimum health and there's never been a better daily nutrition program than our Vitalizer, with 80 bio-optimized nutrients clinically proven to create a foundation for a longer, healthier life.

Vitalizer comes in a convenient daily nutrition strip you take once a day and provides a full month of energy and vitality, and just as important, the building blocks for good, lifelong health. For more information on Vitalizer or to order it online go HERE
