How to Naturally Help Common Health Ailments with Shaklee

HOW TO NATURALLY HELP COMMON HEALTH AILMENTS WITH SHAKLEE 

(Warning: This is a bit of a longer post, but there’s a lot of helpful information here!)

 

I have struggled with a ton of different issues or ailments throughout high school in particular: acne, digestion issues, frizzy hair, nails that broke quickly, immunity, etc. My last year of school I was sick 30 days out of the school year. At five school days a week, that makes more than a month! One of my teachers actually told me on graduation day that he was surprised that I passed my exams and graduated. Let me tell you, that was quite a shock! He then backtracked and told me that due to me being sick so often, he didn’t think I could catch up on all of the school work, and it certainly was hard! I wasn’t caught up on the material, and therefore my grades weren’t the greatest. (The testing anxiety and perfectionism didn’t help much there either.)

Anyway I then went to a naturopath, who suggested I start cutting things out of my diet (such as dairy, gluten, etc.). I soon started to see improvements, but some things still weren’t perfect. My health stopped progressing and kind of backtracked as well. He then suggested that I go on supplements, particularly a probiotic, so I tried the one he prescribed which besides being outrageously priced, made me nauseous and also didn’t help. A little while later my family found a green and natural company called Shaklee and we haven’t turned back since. My health has steadily improved and I’m a huge advocate of supplementation now (as long as you’re taking good quality supplements). I rarely get sick EVER anymore, even in the winter!

So I hope this list helps others as much as it did me!

If you have any questions, please let me know! 🙂
