Landmark Study

RESULTS OF THE LANDMARK STUDY

Three groups of people:

  1. Those who took no supplements
  2. Those who took a multi-vitamin/mineral supplement (Brand-X uses)
  3. Those who took generous amounts of Shaklee for 20-42 years

C Reactive protein may be the most important value. Measures inflammation in the body. Predictive of future cardiovascular disease risk, strongly linked with the risk of developing certain cancers, diabetes and Altzheimer’s disease.

Heart disease is the number one cause of death in the U.S. In all three conditions those who used Shaklee supplements had markedly better heart health.

The study showed a 4-5 times higher incidence of diabetes in the non-user and multi-user group. Diabetes is epidemic in the U.S. but those taking Shaklee had remarkably less incidence despite many of them being over weight.

Perhaps one of the most telling results. Think of the side effects- liver and kidney damage, brain fog, poverty vs. living medication free.

The Shaklee members were on average 10 years older than their counterparts. They also retained normal levels of blood pressure, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and homocysteine. These are markers of inflammation and are warning signals. The other groups did not retain normal levels of these markers.

The study title is “Usage patterns, health and nutritional status of long –term multiple dietary supplement users: a cross- sectional study.”

The Study proved that taking generous amounts of high quality (Shaklee) supplements provides substantial health benefits over the long term.
