Hello February – Happy Valentine’s Day – Hello Heart Health Month
Shaklee’s objective and ours is to help people create healthier lives for themselves, physically and financially. Besides quitting smoking, the next most important thing we can do to enjoy a vibrant, healthy life is to get our weight under control. We are focusing on weight control in this newsletter, and will briefly mention other nutritional approaches that improve heart health.
Recent reports from the National Institute for Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reveal that excessive body weight contributes to diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, heart attack, and to cancers of the breast, uterus, and colon. The good news is that you can act now to help prevent these diseases!
Where do we begin? Which diet plan do we follow? Tufts University conducted a year long study of the Atkins diet, The Zone, Dean Ornish diet, and the Weight Watchers plan. After one year, weight loss averaged only 5% — a drop from the average weight of 230 pounds to 218 pounds – not very encouraging.
The American Cancer Institute (ACI) reviewed the Beverly Hills, Atkins, Protein Power, and Suzanne Sommers’ Get Skinny plans. The ACI found these diets to be deficient in such nutrients as dietary fiber and carbohydrates – these diets were out of balance.
Shaklee’s Cinch, the Inch Loss Plan offers you the best chance for success. It is a program based on rock solid science, designed by ethical Scientists with a 54 year record of unblemished success. Let’s look at the total plan:
CINCH Shake – The Weight Loss Protein Drink
The Shake contains 24 grams of protein with just enough fat to help you feel full. It is low glycemic and contains 6 grams of fiber. The Shakes include the power of leucine, an essential amino acid that has been shown to preserve muscle mass while increasing the rate of fat loss, and helping to maintain normal blood sugar levels. 4 flavors: Vanilla (#20340), Chocolate (#20341), Strawberry (20336), Café Latte (#20339).

Variety
Besides mixing or blending your Shakes in hundreds of ways, you can replace the Shakes with the Cinch Meal-in-a-Bar. Besides tasting great, these delicious, satisfying bars contain 20 grams of protein, leucine, 6 grams of fiber and a full spectrum of vitamins and minerals. Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip (#20405) and Blueberry Almond Crisp (#21227).
The South Shore YMCA exercise physiologists conducted a 23 week strength-training program with 68 middle-aged and previously sedentary men and women. One half of the group received a Cinch Shake just after their workouts. The other half received a placebo. The results: the Cinch Shake group gained 25% more lean muscle mass and lost almost 50% more body fat then the control group. (Fitness Management Magazine, May 2008.)
3-in-1 Boost – The Weight Loss Supplement (#20347)
This 3-in-1 formula is 3 products in one, it (1) provides 23 essential vitamins and minerals, (2) stabilizes blood sugar levels to reduce food cravings and keeps your energy level up, and (3) contains EGCG from green tea that boosts metabolism– even if you don’t exercise — and increases muscle endurance.

Cinch Energy Tea Mix – unsweetened (20345) or pomegranate flavor (20337)
Besides providing a quick pick-me-up, this blend of Matcha, green, red and white teas also increases your base metabolism which speeds fat burning. The amino acid taurine enhances your mental alertness, increases your energy level and boosts your physical endurance and stamina. It is also loaded with antioxidants for extra protection.
