All I can say is that since last August (2008) I have had more energy. I attribute it to using Vivix™ , The World’s Best Anti-Aging Supplement.* We tend to stay up too late and have to get up very early in the morning. Since I've been taking Vivix™, I have more energy and am not tired mid day. It's the only thing I have done differently since last year. I really should go to bed earlier - shouldn't we all? I only drink 1 cup of coffee per day (well would it be considered 2 if it's 2 espresso shots???, but usually it's only 1 shot).....1 tsp of Vivix™ per day is all it takes. I take it in the morning after breakfast. I usually have a Cinch shake for breakfast but sometimes I do egg whites or poached egg whites. (I don't really like the yolks of eggs. I love chile rellenos but don't like the egg batter - doesn't stop me from ordering this dish- what really stops me is the calorie count!!).
Vivix™ Cellular Anti-Aging Tonic, the first all-natural dietary supplement that combines resveratrol with a patent-pending plant extract to combat cellular aging.* Vivix is all natural without artificial flavors, sweeteners, colors or added preservatives. A 30-day supply delivers the equivalent amount of resveratrol found in 3,000 glasses of red wine and has actually been shown in laboratory studies to be ten times more powerful than resveratrol alone at slowing one of the key mechanisms of cellular aging.*

Facial
I had a facial the other day by a friend, Susie, who like me, is an independent Shaklee distributor. Susie incorporates nutritional needs for her clients based on what she sees in the client's skin when she does the facial. Included in the facial is massage on legs, feet, arms. This time she used a new product in the Shakleebaby™ line, the Massage Oil. It has a very nice feel, no fragrance - which is good for me because sometimes the fragrance in products overwhelm my sinuses. She uses natural herbal facial products and some of her Shaklee products and also incorporates Yoga breathing with the treatment. She asked what my skin care consists of and I explained of course I use Shaklee Enfuselle and Minerelles color cosmetics. I use the Hydrating formula of Enfuselle and the Refining Polisher in the shower. About 4 times per week I use the Instant Firming Serum. Susie mentioned she thinks she will begin to incorporate the Firming Serum in her facials. The Serum heals and firms the skin and I have found my skin to be more translucent with using it.

Cherries and arthritis
Our neighbors invited us to pick cherries from their tree last night. We are eating the cherries, pitting the cherries and freezing some of them. The tree produced enough for several boxes.
I plan to use the frozen ones in the winter in my Shaklee Cinch shakes for breakfast. I've been using fresh strawberries and blueberries and had never thought of freezing cherries and using them this way.
I've read and heard nutritionists speak about the benefits of cherries for arthitis; so during the cherry season I make sure I eat some in the morning on an empty stomach as I do have some finger joints with arthritis in them.
We have 2 apple trees but we fighting off apple maggots. Hopefully our apple trees will produce enough good apples to share...this is natural nutrition at its best!

Vitamin D LINKED TO HDL Cholesterol
Vitamin D research was begun by the Shaklee Corporation last year and continues.....this may be of high interest to those with high cholesterol and cardiovascular issues.
BREAKING RESEARCH SHOWS Vitamin D LINKED TO HDL Cholesterol
Shaklee Corporation Research Suggests an Important Role of Vitamin D for Supporting Cardiovascular Health
PLEASANTON, Calif. – May 19, 2009 – Research supported by Shaklee Corporation, the number one natural nutrition company in the U.S., shows that a lower blood vitamin D level is associated with metabolic syndrome and other risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
The study results were presented at the National Lipid Association Annual Scientific Sessions in Miami, Florida and suggest an important role of vitamin D nutrition for maintaining cardiovascular health.
In this study, intake of vitamin D from dietary supplements was strongly linked with vitamin D levels in the blood. The greater the intake of vitamin D from dietary supplements, the higher the amount of vitamin D found in the blood. More importantly, as vitamin D intakes increased, HDL cholesterol (or “good cholesterol”) levels increased as well. Future research is needed to determine if vitamin D from dietary supplements can lower risk levels for metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease.
“Our next study, which is already underway, is intended to confirm causality by showing that vitamin D supplementation improves cardiovascular risk factors,” says Dr. Jamie McManus M.D., Chairman of Medical Affairs, Health Sciences and Education, Shaklee Corporation.
Founded more than 50 years ago, Shaklee has been a leading provider of premium-quality natural nutrition products, personal care products, and environmentally friendly home care products. In 2000, Shaklee became the first company in the world to be Climate Neutral™ certified to totally offset its CO2 emissions, resulting in a net-zero impact on the environment.
