CorEnergy Part II



WHAT’S IN CORENERGY?
IS THERE SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE FOR THE EFFECTIVES OF THE INGREDIENTS IN CORENERGY?

Cordyceps extract has been extensively tested in China and found to help ward off everyday fatigue.  Studies indicate that it promotes more efficient use of oxygen by the cells of the body.  In one three-month long, double-blind placebo controlled study, 92% of elderly people who used Cordyceps reported a reduction in their feelings of fatigue, compared to only 14% in a placebo group.1

In traditional Asian medicine, dried ginseng is used as a tonic to revitalize and replenish vital energy. (In 1991, the German Commission E approved the use of Panax ginseng “as a tonic for invigoration and fortification in times of fatigue and debility, and for treating declines in capacity for work and concentration.”

Population studies have shown improved health of the mouth, pancreas, colon, skin, lung, prostate, bladder, and digestive tract associated with tea consumption. Tea consumption has also been linked to improved cardiovascular health and retaining normal blood cholesterol levels. Tea is the richest dietary source of the antioxidant phytonutrients known as polyphenols. Green tea is the favorite tea of Asia; black tea is preferred in Europe and the Americas.

WHY CHOOSE SHAKLEE CORENERGY?

■ Unique blend of herbs containing phytonutrients designed to support sustained energy 
■ Formulated with standardized extracts to provide the clinically studied and traditionally used levels of phytonutrients reflected in the scientific literature.


Have a healthy and productive day!

CorEnergy Part I


THE CHALLENGE

Everyday fatigue is a common complaint in our fast-paced society, ranking among the top five health problems reported by all adults in 1998. In fact, four out of 10 adults across all age groups experience it, and the problem affects more women than men. What’s more, lack of energy becomes a vicious cycle, with stress and the inability to relax being among the most common reasons for sleep problems. The problem is further compounded by the fact that the majority of adults who report fatigue and loss of energy admit that they don’t get the RDA of most important vitamins and minerals even one day per week.

Diabetes-Postive Results in 6 Weeks With Shaklee


Here is another awesome testimonial on diabetes and how Shaklee helped naturally to combat this disease.
Enjoy!
When my daughter was born, I developed adult onset diabetes. For 20 years I have been taking medication and trying to watch my diet. I am 61 years old and walk almost every day. My energy levels were low and the skin on my elbows crack and almost bleed. I also had fatty tissue lumps under my skin on my arms. Recently my doctor wanted to start me on insulin shots because she said that my diabetes was not under control and the pills would no longer work. I was taking Rezulin and had to have my liver tested monthly for toxic side effects to the tune of $100.
I decided to sit in on an “I Love Dieting” session and thought that maybe this type of diet was for me. I started the diet the next day and continued to take my blood sugar several times a day. Here are my test results before the diet and 6 weeks after starting on the diet:
  • Cholesterol were 223 now 175
  • HDL (good) were 56 now 58
  • Triglycerides were 305 now 158
  • LDL were 106 now 85



As you can see, I have had great results in just 6 weeks. My vital statistics have improved and my outlook on life is brighter. When my doctor saw these results, she cut my medication from 400 mg to 200 mg. I was so happy. But I want to tell you how my life has changed. In the area where we live, it is quite hilly. I used to dread walking and had to stop because I was out of breath. Now I can walk easily and enjoy looking at the trees and listening to the birds. What a difference! I have more energy and am not always thinking about food. I am not hungry on this diet. My beauty operator even said she noticed a difference for the better on my hair texture and fingernails. The skin on my elbows is now like baby skin and I no longer have lumps on my arms.
I am taking Vita-E Plus, Vita-Lea, Alfalfa, Lecithin, B-Complex, Shaklee 180 Weight Loss Program with Instant Protein and Fiber everyday and it sure is helping. Also, I love the Fiber Crunch for breakfast in the Slim Plan.
It is now 12 weeks into the diet and I have lost 17 1/2 pounds and 10 1/2 inches. I feel wonderful. I have surpassed my goal. I haven’t weighed this little since high school.. This last time I was at the doctor, my doctor looked at the ingredients in the supplements I’m taking and said stay on everything. It’s working for you. The best news of all is this last week my doctor said I no longer have to be on Rezulin and may soon be taken off of the 6 mg. of Prandin. Hooray!

Feeling Fatigued?



Fatigue and lack of energy is one of the more common complaints a doctor hears from patients. If you find you don't have the energy you used to have, there is a lot you can do right now to get back on track to a more energetic you. 


WHAT ARE THE CHALLENGES?

It is no surprise that women are tired; they are busier than ever. Many are juggling work, children, family and endless responsibilities — it is a recipe for fatigue. All of this hustle means that women are not taking care of themselves; not eating right, not getting enough nutrients, nor are they getting enough exercise or sleep.
Our busy lives leave us with low energy, irritability, stress, worn down immune systems, and may even lead more serious conditions like depression.

WHAT CAN I DO?
You might think that drinking coffee or taking other stimulants is a solution, but these are only temporary fixes that often lead to more fatigue in the future. If you are looking for a better way to ensure your long-term energy needs, try these energy boosters:

Exercise is an important part of your fatigue-fighting routine. Research has shown that regular exercise releases endorphins which help us feel good and exercise has been shown to reduce tiredness.

Getting a good night's sleep is one of the best tools in your fatigue-fighting arsenal. Try going to bed at the same time every day, avoiding caffeine late in the day, or read a book instead of watching TV.

Food is the fuel for your body; try eating healthier, avoiding sugar and processed foods, and don't skip meals.

Take care of yourself. A massage, lunch with friends, a walk in the woods can all help. Take time during the day to relax (even 10 minutes alone can help).

Supplementation:


Multivitamin: even if you try to eat healthy, you may be lacking some key nutrients, so a good multivitamin is a great place to start.

B-Vitamins (including B12 and folate) are important in many metabolic processes in the body and have long been used for people looking for energy. In a study, supplementing with extra B vitamins improved energy, stress, mental health, and improve cognitive performance.

Magnesium deficiency is one of the more common deficiencies in America, with close to half of people in the US not getting enough.iii Magnesium is required for over 300 processes in the body, including the breakdown of glucose into energy. The best form of magnesium to take is a time-release formula; to ensure a steady stream of magnesium.

Iron is an important mineral for women who are still menstruating and low iron can lead to lack of energy, especially in young women who have heavy menstrual bleeding. 

Your lack of energy can be turned around with a little effort and good nutritional supplementation. Remember that fatigue can be a sign of an underlying condition. If your fatigue persists, check with your health care provider.

Shaklee has great alternatives to helping you naturally with Shaklee's Core Energy and Shaklee Energy Chews. Here are the links to the products and I hope you have an awesome Thursday!
