Subject: A Pharmacist tells why he takes Shaklee and only
Shaklee!
I thought you might be interested in this e-mail. I asked my friend, Harry Shurley, a pharmacist, why
he took Shaklee vitamins when he could get others, as samples, for free. Here is his reply E Yandle
-----------------------------------------------
Why do I take Shaklee vitamins? From a pharmacist's view you have to look at the clinical research that is done
by Shaklee. Mrs. Lindley and I are writing a book on prenatal nutrition -- not quite complete -- and we requested clinical
studies from the makers of prenatal vitamins and NO major company (except Shaklee) could provide us with any studies! Also,
as you know, the Shaklee vitamins are natural as opposed to the synthetic prenatal vitamins available in drug stores. The
makers of those prenatal vitamins stress the amount of folic acid in them, which is 1 mg. Because they have 1 mg of folic
acid they have to be on prescription because folic acid can mask pernicious anemia, but if you look at the prenatal vitamins
they have very few of the other vitamins and most leave out biotin completely. It is funny that you ask me this question because
a few weeks ago I had a nurse call in for some prenatal vitamins and I asked her what was the best prenatal vitamin and she
said, "I don't know." So I asked her how did they determine what brand of vitamin to give to the patients and
she said, "Whatever they can tolerate."
There are so many reasons why I take Shaklee over the vitamins
I could get from pharmaceutical companies. I don' t have time to explain all, but the main reason is because the Shaklee
vitamins produce results!
Take care and God Bless.
