Only 1 Week Left

Air purity is a hot topic these days – I’ve seen articles in the newspaper, online, in the paper’s weekend magazine about the dangers air pollution.


Oh, are you thinking the air pollution outside?


Actually, the quality of our outdoor air has steadily gotten better (in most parts of the country). It’s the quality of the air inside our homes which is really bad, and steadily getting worse.


The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) warned about it years ago – calling it America’s #1 environmental health problem.


As always, it takes awhile for the message to get out.


Now, you can find all sorts of infomercials touting the benefits of an air purifier.


Do you really need one? The short answer is yes. Especially if:

  • you have a newer home, have remodeled recently, or plan to remodel (including painting)

  • you have young children and/or pets

  • you have seasonal or environmental allergies

  • you have asthma or other respiratory issues

  • you have a compromised immune system

If you’re not sure why the air inside your home isn’t safe, let me know, or look at my website about air quality.


With winter coming on, it’s more important than ever to invest in a whole house air purifier. It will help you and your family stay healthier, because it frees your immune system from dealing with all the toxins in the air – allowing it to focus on what’s really important, killing those viruses being passed around work, school and church.


Shaklee’s AirSource 3000 is a great investment (you have to be a member to see the page). I’ve had one for over eight years, and cannot imagine life without it.

(Read more about my experience here.)


You only have until September 30ththat’s next Wednesday – to order your AirSource unit. Why? Basically Shaklee decided it wasn’t worth the expensive process of registering it with the state of California, as will be required starting October 1st.


Why am I encouraging you to purchase one before they go off the market? Several reasons:

  • Shaklee will still honor the original three-year warranty

  • Replacement modules (which you need once a year) will be available for three more years – allowing you to stock up before they’re gone.

  • You can consider an AirSource an appliance – it should last like one (at least 10 years, perhaps more).

  • You will be glad you did!


Please call me or e-mail me with any questions you may have. I found it is worth every penny I spent on mine – I’m healthier, my family is healthier – and with winter around the corner, that’s worth a lot!


If you would like to order one, and cannot access any of the above links, let me know. I can order one on your behalf.

Keeping Kids Healthy

Time for afternoon snack












One of my children’s favorite times of the day is afternoon snack time. It doesn’t happen every day, but when it does, they beg for Shaklee’s Mighty Smarts.

Even my pickiest of eaters loves Mighty Smart orange chews (see their double thumbs up?). And I love what it does for them.

Mighty Smart
is a DHA chewable supplement for children. DHA is an omega-3 fatty acid which is essential for children’s growing brains. Studies have shown that DHA is essential to brain development, good eyesight and helps with behavioral issues like ADHD.

Foods like sardines and liver are high in DHA. Perhaps those are your child’s favorite foods, but mine wouldn’t touch them!

Another good source of DHA is tuna and salmon. But the Environmental Protection Agency warns that those fish could be contaminated with mercury, pesticides and dioxins, which are harmful to our kids. We have tuna about twice a month, which is not enough DHA to keep my kids’ brains healthy, but limits their exposure to toxins.

Which is why I was so excited when Shaklee introduced Mighty Smart. A safe, and delicious, way to make sure my kids get the DHA they need. One that my kids beg for every day.

I only have one still taking chewable vitamins, and she absolutely loves the new Incredivites. They include lactoferrin to supercharge her immune system, all the essential nutrients to help her grow strong and healthy, plus she loves the taste! No artificial sweeteners or colors either, and since they’re Shaklee, I know they’re safe.

Supersmart. Supersafe. Supernutritious. Perfect for super kids.
