| Greetings!
We're back from our favorite Shaklee Convention to-date, with reports on Vivix and its one-year birthday! Plus, exciting health news about Vitamin D, a breakthrough in studying viruses, and a new clinical study on Vivix.
We're also happy to report that another home was converted to a healthy home, thanks to switching to Shaklee's Get Clean non-toxic, green cleaning products. However, this big house is no ordinary home!
Finally, how do YOU feel today? Would you like to feel significantly better in 30 days? Later this month we will invite you to take Shaklee's "Rx for a Healthier Life Challenge" and feel better than you have in years!
These are some of the subjects we will be sharing with you this month of September 2009. We are making some changes this month which we hope you will enjoy. Instead of a multiple article newsletter once a month, we are going to be testing a short, one article mini-newsletter which you will receive to your inbox every Thursday morning. We hope this will fit better into everyone's busy, on the go lifestyle!
And if you missed any of our recent newsletters please visit our Newsletter Archive!
Note: My Canadian Friends and Customers, please contact me directly to place an order. Thanks!

Happy Birthday Vivix!
 Shaklee celebrated the birthday of Vivix, the world's first cellular anti-aging tonic, by unveiling a newly designed and bigger bottle. This single bottle will replace the 3-bottle monthly serving, and for good measure. Shaklee is adding an extra serving at no extra cost, so now there are 31 servings in every bottle of Vivix!
As nice as the new bottle looks, the big news around Vivix at the conference was the glimpse we were given on a new clinical SUNY Buffalo study (soon to be published) of the impact of Vivix on Nrf2, which is, in the paraphrased words of Dr. Carsten Smidt, Shaklee's Lead Scientist, "the mother of all anti-aging genetic regulators".
The placebo-controlled study involved healthy adults eating, according to Dr. Smidt, "an insulting 910 calorie typical junk food breakfast laden with fat, carbohydrate and a little bit of protein" and watching the impact on Nrf2 activity.
 With the "food" alone, Nrf2 activity was totally flat to declining over five hours. The same meal eaten with a serving of Vivix created a massive spike of Nrf2 activity after several hours, with a significantly elevated, protective level that was maintained after five hours. This study apparently supports a new paradigm that anti-aging genetic regulators can be stimulated to have a profound effect immediately, rather than over time, as previously thought.
What is Nrf2? Yeah, we definately had to go look it up in Wikipedia...
Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2, also known as NFE2L2 or Nrf2, is a transcription factor which in humans is encoded by the NFE2L2 gene.[1] Nrf2 is a master regulator of the antioxidant response.[2][3] The antioxidant response is important for the amelioration (to improve upon) of oxidative stress. Oxidative stress can result in cancer, cardiovascular diseases, inflammation, neurological diseases, and renal disease. Because Nrf2 is able to induce genes important in combating oxidative stress, thereby activating the body's own protective response, it is able to protect from a variety of [oxidative stress]-related complications , even in situations where the administration of exogenous antioxidants (such as Vitamin C and Vitamin E) have failed.
We will let you know when this study is published. In the meantime to learn more about Vivix visit our new Anti-Aging Center website.
