This month Team RLEI hosted its November Facebook Party. Here’s a recap of the information shared…
Welcome! Tonight I’m going to quickly share 10 of our best tips for natural vitality and longevity. As the saying goes, it’s not just the years in your life, but the life in your years that count. There are definitely ways to take your “health care” to the next level, in mind, body, and spirit. (Western medicine is perfecting “sick care”, but we look to Eastern medicinal practices and traditions for much of our mental, emotional, and spiritual “centering”.) Let’s start with the center of our systems, the brain, and thanks in advance for following along!
I’m going to grab an apple to snack on, just in case they really do keep the doctor away…
TIP #1. The verdict is in about omega fatty acids and brain health. Both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are called “essential” fats for good reason. The human body needs them for many functions, from building healthy cells to maintaining brain and nerve function. Our bodies can’t produce them. The only source is food. Studies suggest these fats may also protect against Alzheimer’s disease and age-related brain decline.
Omega-6 mostly comes as linoleic acid from plant oils such as corn oil, soybean oil, and sunflower oil, as well as from nuts and seeds. The American Heart Association recommends that at least 5% to 10% of food calories come from omega-6 fatty acids. Omega-3s come primarily from fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, and tuna, as well as from walnuts and flaxseed in lesser amounts.
The fish oil found in Shaklee’s “OmegaGuard” comes certified by Friend of the Sea®, an international conservation organization that follows strict criteria for sustainability. Friend of the Sea tracks fish populations and works with fishermen to set catch limits and avoid harvesting during spawning seasons. Their efforts help ensure a constant supply of high-quality fish oil for Shaklee products without harming the environment. To ensure purity and potency, the fish oil in OmegaGuard undergoes a state-of-the-art molecular distillation process that:
- Concentrates natural, beneficial omega-3 fatty acids including EPA & DHA
- Removes lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, dioxins, PCBs,
and other contaminants - Minimizes odor and fishy aftertaste
(Note: Non-VEG product.)
TIP #2. Choline is nature’s emulsifier and is important in the transport and synthesis of lipids, insulating nerve fibers. Studies have found that choline helps with conditions like memory problems, schizophrenia, and neural tube birth defects.
The National Academy of Sciences has established that choline is important in the diet because it supports brain, liver, cardiovascular, and reproductive health. Choline is a component of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is involved in the transmission of messages in the brain and nervous system. Shaklee’s “Lecithin” is:
- Naturally sourced from soybeans
- Each serving provides 3.1 grams of choline-rich lecithin, including 468 mg of phosphatidylcholine and 282 mg of phosphatidylinositol
(Note: Non-VEG product.)
TIP #3. Don’t fear “staying sharp” into your old age, get proactive. Who wants to live a full, long life that they can’t remember? Dementia is a general term for a decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with daily life. Dementia is not a specific disease. It’s an overall term that describes a wide range of symptoms associated with a decline in memory or other thinking skills severe enough to reduce a person’s ability to perform everyday activities. Dementia is often incorrectly referred to as “senility” or “senile dementia,” which reflects the formerly widespread but incorrect belief that serious mental decline is a normal part of aging. There are still a lot of “unknowns” about dementia, no easy “cures”, but any ounce of prevention is worth its weight in gold.
“Mental Acuity Plus” is a Shaklee exclusive formula that contains ginkgo, bilberry, hawthorn, and B vitamins to enhance memory and decision making. It also helps lower homocysteine levels.
TIP #4. Help your body function at its peak by filling in any nutritional gaps with the ultimate daily multivitamin/mineral supplement. The Shaklee Life-Strip has clinically proven nutrients to help provide the foundation for a longer, healthier life. Every serving of Shaklee “Life” is the culmination of years of research and quality testing to guarantee every Life-Strip delivers pure and potent vitamins, minerals, omega-3 fatty acids, polyphenols, antioxidants and phytonutrients.
This comprehensive nutrition system contains:

- B+C Complex for Immune Health; Energy – Shown in a clinical study to provide up to 198% greater absorption of B vitamins over 12 hours.
(Note: Non-VEG product.)
TIP #5. One shake does it all. “Life Energizing Shake” is a delicious, protein-rich meal shake with nutrients clinically proven to help create the foundation for a longer, healthier life.

TIP #8. You’re not going to stay strong, for long, unless your immune system is in fighting shape. It is your defense system against all that will ail you throughout life. Even matters of the heart can lower immunity. Consider backing it up…
To keep your immune system strong and in good working order, “Immunity Formula I” provides the essential nutrients for healthy immune function. Full nutrition potency is guaranteed with ShakleeGuard®, a patented blend of antioxidants and rosemary extract.
(Note: Non-VEG product.)
TIP #9. Another concern of aging: vision deterioration. You can stay on top of your eye health too!
Studies have shown that the highest concentrations of lutein and zeaxanthin in the body are found in the eye. Shaklee’s “CarotoMax” contains these most potent nutrients, along with other beneficial carotenoids, including beta-carotene and astaxanthin.
The key nutrients in CarotoMax have been shown to:
- Increase the density of the macular pigment, an area critical to visual acuity
- Help filter harmful UV light
- Support healthy eye aging

(Note: Non-VEG product.)
TIP #10. Some times during the year, things get off track with your well-balanced diet, regular exercise routine, sleep schedule, etc. and there’s added stress, like with the holidays, that makes you vulnerable. Don’t let all the indulgences lead to indigestion, disruptions, and disturbances.
We have found that Shaklee’s “Chewable Cal Mag Plus” product is a quick fix all before bedtime. It relaxes certain muscle spasms and can help you get the rest you need. So you can restart again the next day.
