The 12 Most Dangerous Supplements are NOT in any Shaklee Products

But there's another huge piece of the Shaklee Difference that I want you to know about. It's about the potentially dangerous ingredients that you simply won't find in Shaklee Products. The feature story in the September, 2010 issue of Consumer Reports® is "The 12 Most Dangerous Supplements, Which ones to avoid, Why they're on the market," published by Consumers Union® (CU), the expert, independent, nonprofit organization working for a fair, just, and safe marketplace for all consumers. http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/magazine-archive/2010/september/september-2010-toc.htm

Consumer Reports singled out the following "dirty dozen" dietary supplement ingredients due to potential health risks ranging from cardiovascular to liver and kidney problems: 1) aconite, 2) bitter orange, 3) chaparral, 4) colloidal silver, 5) coltsfoot, 6) comfrey, 7) country mallow, 8) germanium, 9) greater celandine, 10) kava, 11) lobelia, and 12) yohimbe. And the FDA has warned about at least eight of them, some as long ago as 1993.

It came as no surprise to Shaklee that there are not any ingredients on this list that are in our products. In fact, these ingredients are not and have never been used in any Shaklee dietary supplement. In addition to researching the ingredients that we use in our Shaklee formulas for their efficacy, we take equal care in determining the safety of each and every ingredient used in our Shaklee products. Over the years we've evaluated many of the ingredients on the CU list and have rejected them for the same safety reasons CU now uses to identify them on their "hit" list.

The "dirty dozen" list is the first update of the original CU list published in 2004. And now it should come as no surprise to you that no Shaklee dietary supplement has ever contained any of the offending ingredients from either the 2004 or the new 2010 Consumer Reports "Most Dangerous Supplements" lists.

Always Safe is more than just a catchphrase at Shaklee, it's a guiding principle. Safety is paramount at Shaklee and our safety standards are unsurpassed in our industry. We conduct hundreds of tests on new ingredients and tens of thousands of quality tests annually to ensure product safety and efficacy. But more importantly, we design safety into each and every one of our products so you can be confident that dangerous ingredients will never find their way into any Shaklee dietary supplement.
