Shaklee Cinch Success:Matt


My last post was from an article talking about obesity affecting one's income in different ways.  Since I am an Independent Shaklee Distributor, I thought I would follow up that post with something about Shaklee's CINCH product.  Cinch has helped many many people lose weight, and INCHES.  I dropped a size in the top and the bottom by using this program.  I found that using this keeps your blood sugar levels more stable and can positively affect cholesterol levels (as it did for me). 

It is tasty, science based, fills you up, has variety, is very comparably priced and very easy to follow.  I lost inches but retained muscle and I have continued to use Cinch to keep the weight off.  The money I would normally spend on meals is redirected to the Cinch product and my tastes have changes - we rarely eat breakfast out any more because I have a Cinch shake. 

Some diets get the weight off of you, and many times that includes losing muscle; people also tend to gain it back after stopping the diet and it comes back as more fat. CINCH has scientific proof that muscle is retained, that is why this program is so fabulous.  Muscle helps to burn fat.  We watch the inches melt away with Cinch, and retain muscle.  This translates into:  changed body shape, some weight loss, possible improved blood chemistry, more energy.  You can view more about it at my Shaklee website. 

To Your Health,
Andrea

Gulf of Mexico oil spill

Gulf of Mexico oil spill: How bad is it? - CSMonitor.com

We have people saying 'Drill Baby Drill' and here is a huge catastrophe hitting our Gulf coast. It can be seen from space and is currently about 600 miles around. The oil spill in Valdez, AK still has consequences after 20+ years. At first the oil company didn't there was a leak and then discovered it was indeed leaking. There is a valve that is supposed to activate to shut off the leak and it didn't activate. Now remotely operated vehicles (ROV) have been deployed to try and get that shutoff valve to work and stop the flow. Burning off the oil is being considered. This appears to be a very strange leak that is not reacting as the oil company is used to, like a rebelling child. Murphy's Law is in effect here.

Does this mean there should be more maintenance, more oversight, more testing, more emergency response test runs, old wells replaced with newer equipment, or....??

In any case, consequences for birds and marine life could be huge even though right now this oil slick is not as large as Valdez. If BP and all the agencies assisting them can't get it shut off, it could continue to grow. The currents will carry the oil slick toward land - then shorebirds will become covered in the oil - then they will die. Even with numerous ecology groups cleaning the birds and the gooey mess from the shore, it will be a disaster.

Of course some will say the ocean will cleanse itself, there are ups and downs in nature.........but when man interferes, the consequences are always larger and skewed. 

How about exploration for alternative fuels instead of more oil exploration?  We need creativity, thinking outside the box: electricity, microwave technology, microchips, lasers, satellites, etc. were innovations - we need that "100th Monkey" awareness and breakthrough with the oil and energy companies.

Perseid Meteor Shower

The Perseid Meteor Shower is this time of year, well, to brag, it actually falls right on my birthday give or take a few hours between 2 days. When I was small we could see so many stars and one satellite (Sputnik), but now with all the lights that the cities have and in neighborhoods, one has to go a long way out to find a dark enough place to view the sky. We used to go to Sunrise at Mt Rainier, about 6100 foot elevation - the meteors shoot through the parking lot. There are some towns in the U.S. that ban light pollution, as it is called, and keep the towns dark at night. It's a good idea to save energy also; maybe just have motion detector lights instead of ones that stay on all night. I've read that light pollution has health consequences such as the thought that excess light may induce loss in visual acuity. Over-illumination of buildings is a waste of energy sources.
OK, back to the meteor shower - I found this on You Tube and it's very good, about 5 minutes long: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJ_B0d1pr6I&NR=1
Take a nap and set your alarm clock to watch the Perseids. If you need energy the next day try Shaklee CorEnergy and the Cinch Tea!

More Energy

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.*
