Why Shaklee? The Landmark Study

Why you should choose Shaklee: 

Shaklee products are well-researched.

There’s 129 journals published by Shaklee, of which 80% of the journals are peer-reviewed. This means that scientists who has no stake in Shaklee at all reviewed the journals. No other nutrition companies have done the same. Or even if they do, it is mostly on general benefits of supplements rather than journals on their own products. 

Shaklee has published a Landmark Study.       

The Landmark Study (LS) is a study that measures two things: safety and effectiveness of supplements.

The short history on this is that, Roger Barnet, CEO of Shaklee was looking for ways to determine whether or not Shaklee is really effective. 

At the same time, Dr. Gladys Block was looking for sponsors to conduct a study on effectiveness of supplements in general, not product specific. She approached Dr. Jamie McManus, who at the time was the lead scientist at Shaklee to request for sponsors. 

Mr. Barnet and Dr. McManus agree to sponsor the study with a condition that Dr. Block must include a third category of participants in her study: those who consumes Shaklee for at least 20 years. 

Dr. Block agrees and thus came in the study that looks into the health of three different groups of people.

1. Those who do not take any supplements at all;
2. Those who takes various brands of supplements; and
3. Those who has been consuming Shaklee for at least 20 years.

But Dr. Block also has her own conditions that Mr. Barnet and Dr. McManus has to agree to. 

1. She has full control of the research, not Mr. Barnet, not Dr. McManus;
2. She decides how the study will be conducted;
3. Only herself and her team are involved in analysing the participants; and
4. Regardless of the result, it will be published, no matter what. 

Mr. Barnet agrees with the condition knowing that he is risking his own company should the findings came out to be against him. But he was confident and so the study was conducted. 

Just an additional note, to ensuring the result of the study, Dr. Block did not just ask the participants to answer some questionnaires. Their blood was also taken to be analysed. 

Result was surprising.

Those who consume Shaklee shows better health and stronger resistance towards diseases.
