Where Are Your Vitamins Sourced From & Why Is It Important?


Do you know where your vitamins are manufactured? Do they do this kind of extensive testing? Is it safe? How do you know?
I know, and this is why I only trust Shaklee.
WHERE ARE SHAKLEE U.S. SUPPLEMENTS MANUFACTURED/INGREDIENTS SOURCED?
Is another question I've received a few times lately.
Here's the official reply:
With the exception of NutriFeron (Japan) and our Shaklee 180 Meal Bars and Shaklee 180 Snack Bars (Canada), all Shaklee food and nutritional products are manufactured in the United States.
We source ingredients worldwide, and whether some come from China, South America, the U.S., Japan, or New Zealand is not necessarily a measure of quality.
The Shaklee approach to raw material sourcing for all nutritional ingredients has actually maximized product safety over our 60+ year history.
In today’s global marketplace, where ingredients are sourced from worldwide raw material suppliers, we are keenly aware of the need for close oversight.
Shaklee R&D here in Pleasanton controls the selection of raw materials for our products, and the testing of all ingredients as well as the testing of the product during manufacture are managed by Shaklee Quality Assurance.
Our quality assurance process includes analysis of each and every batch of raw materials to ensure the absence of potentially harmful microbes and bacteria, pesticides and herbicides, and heavy metals such as lead and mercury.
Additionally, Shaklee food and nutritional supplements are quarantined before they are released for sale to ensure that quality has been maintained throughout the production process and guarantee potency and purity for the end consumer.
Shaklee food and nutritional supplements are manufactured in FDA cGMP facilities, which means they meet specific quality manufacturing guidelines for dietary supplements.

My Note: Here is why I trust Shaklee -
BEYOND ORGANIC
Beyond Organic is our philosophy that Shaklee quality standards go beyond how and where an ingredient is grown. 
We look to confirm the purity and potency of ingredients AFTER harvest to guarantee that the final finished product is free of hundreds of chemical contaminants.

3X U.S. STANDARDS
Screening for over 350 contaminants, pesticides, and impurities on every new botanical, 3 times more than U.S. Pharmacopeia standards.

100K QUALITY TESTS
Over 100,000 quality tests per year to ensure our products are pure.

WHY DOES SHAKLEE GO BEYOND ORGANIC?
While we encourage all consumers to purchase organic produce and ingredients, it is important to remember organic is a means of production; it is not a guarantee that the food is clean and free of chemical contaminants. 
Pesticides and herbicides—even when safely applied—can run off into unintended areas and farmland.
That is why our approach is to work with the finest suppliers and to go above and beyond to verify the safety, purity and potency of the ingredients we use, after harvest.
Your safety and your family's safety is our highest concern. And our Beyond Organic program guarantees the highest standards of safety.
THIS ⬆️ is why trust Shaklee.

The Secret of Basic H® in Your Garden

Summertime is when all of us want to enjoy the beauty and bounty of our gardens – but who wants to spend all their time taking care of them ? Basic-H® has been used for years by farmers and home gardeners alike to reduce the amount of watering time, improve the quality of the soil, and treat for pests. Even in those areas where Basic-H® Soil Conditioner is not available (Pennsylvania, for instance), you can still get great results by using Basic-H®, Basic-G ® and Liqui-Lea ®. The best information we’ve found on using Basic-H in the garden has come from MaryAnn and Mike Mizicko of Vienna, Ohio. Mike is a very successful truck farmer – and Basic-H is his secret! Be careful to note special circumstances, such as whether to spray on foliage, to apply only to the soil around plants, avoid spraying on blooming trees or plants, and other restrictions. Basic-H is a surfactant, not a fertilizer, so don’t use one concentration for all uses, or you will kill the plants you love. Soil P...

Testimony: ADD

I'm an adult with ADD but was never diagnosed. Scanning my old report cards, I see "doesn't concentrate, can't stay on task, has focusing problems". All I knew growing up was that I seemed to be on a different page than everyone else. I'm the mother of 2 girls. Niki is 21 and I'm soooo proud of her. She is in Military Intelligence with the Army and is fluent in Russian and Spanish. With the physical and mental challenges she faces, she grabs a handful of B Complex and knows she can get through anything. Then, there is Kristina, my 13 year old. Diagnosed at 4 with ADHD, I knew from birth she was different. The doctor put her on Ritalin but it didn't work. We tried something else but she was getting worse. I was in nursing school and studying everything on ADD but having no success. At 7, medication kept her from sleeping so we had to put her on more medicine to sleep. She would disappear in the middle of the night. Often we...
