  To Sound Nutrition
     And Wellness
First, a few questions:
1. What are your goals for your physical health?

4. How much money do you spend, on average, per day
     on things you eat or drink that you know are not
     improving your health (coffee, soda, donuts,
     desserts, fast food, unhealthy snacks, etc.)?
How does your daily diet compare
                             to what your body needs?

                                              The USDA spent about a
                                              zillion dollars to figure out
                                              the minimum of what our
U.S.D.A., mypyramid.gov




                                              bodies need. The New
                                              Food Pyramid can be a bit
                                              confusing, but let’s simplify
                                              it and answer the question
                                              above.

       Following are the requirements for a hypothetical active 35-year-old
       woman. If you’re male, you’ll need a bit more. If you’re sedentary or
       an older adult, you’ll need a little less.
GRAINS           VEGETABLES
6 oz. per day    2½ cups per day
6 - 9 servings        4 servings
                    Furthermore, you should vary your
                    veggies each week as follows:

FRUITS              Dark Green Vegetables = 3 cups weekly
                    Orange Vegetables = 2 cups weekly
2 cups per day      Dry Beans & Peas = 3 cups weekly
                    Starchy Vegetables = 3 cups weekly
3 - 4 servings      Other Vegetables = 6 1/2 cups weekly




MILK             MEAT & BEANS
3 cups per day     5½ oz. per day
3 servings          2 - 3 servings
OILS & FATS                   SUGARS
                                 6 tsp. per day                 Mostly in
                                                             your dreams
Note that these should Fats & sugars combined, 265 calories per day
be “good” fats, and that (less than in one 2-oz. Snickers bar, or about
you’re already getting
                             the same as one small serving of fries)
some of these fats in
your meat and dairy
foods.

Inadequate Nutrient Intake

The Anarem Report reveals that not
a single person out of the 21,500+
people surveyed consumed 100% of
the DV for even any one of the
following ten nutrients:

• Protein        • Thiamin
• Calcium        • Riboflavin        Fiber:
• Iron           • Vitamin B-6       The American Cancer Soc., Nat’l.

• Vitamin A      • Vitamin B-12      Assn. all recommend a daily fiber
                                     intake of 20 – 35 grams. The average
• Vitamin C      • Magnesium         American gets 7-10 grams per day.
The Myth of the Well-Balanced Diet




Close to nature, organic;   fresh = picked that day
The Myth of the Well-Balanced Diet

Their conclusion was that organic foods contained, on average, twice the
elemental concentration (of the favorable elements) as commercial foods.

pulling away, leaving a cloud of exhaust behind,
you’ve been exposed to more free radicals in

vitamin supplements.”

“The research literature contains numerous reports which suggest that natural
vitamin C, for example, has been found to be more effective than synthetic ascorbic
acid. This fact has been recognized for a long time. In 1954, for example, it was
reported that cases of scurvy failed to respond to doses of synthetic vitamin C. A
cure was effected when individuals suffering from scurvy were given a natural food
substance containing vitamin C.” Consumers’ Research magazine

                         creates Vitalized Minerals, the
                         world’s first multivitamin
                         supplement
                         1956 – Dr. Shaklee founds a company based on

                         Golden Rule: Shaklee Corporation

                                Purity
•Shaklee’s standards are far stricter than
organic standards. They require purity in the
end product, not just adherence to steps in
the production of raw materials.
•Shaklee performs over 83,000 quality tests
per year (yes, they counted them) on all raw materials and every
significant step of every production run, including every final batch.
That’s 1 test every 6 minutes, 24/7. They don’t have to do recalls.
                          •Many of the raw materials Shaklee tests,
                          they reject. Having been rejected by
                          Shaklee, those contaminated and/or
                          deficient raw materials are then sold by the
                          distributor to other manufacturers.

          Proof         (Pub. in Nutrition Journal, Oct. 24, 2007)

      In 2007, a landmark study conducted by
      the UC Berkeley School of Public Health
      determined that people who took
      Shaklee supplements had markedly
      better health than people who took
      either no supplements or another brand
      of multivitamin.
      Here are two dramatic examples of
      those results. What is not clear in the
      charts, however, is that none of the
      Shaklee subjects in the test group had
      abnormal levels in either of these two
      analyses.

  • 2. First, a few questions: 1. What are your goals for your physical health?
  • 3. First, a few questions: 1. What are your goals for your physical health? (Did you have any before you saw that question?)
  • 4. First, a few questions: 1. What are your goals for your physical health? (Did you have any before you saw that question?) 2. On a scale of 1 to 10, how important is your physical health?
  • 5. First, a few questions: 1. What are your goals for your physical health? (Did you have any before you saw that question?) 2. On a scale of 1 to 10, how important is your physical health? 3. On the same scale, how much of your time/energy/financial resources do you spend on it?
  • 6. First, a few questions: 1. What are your goals for your physical health? (Did you have any before you saw that question?) 2. On a scale of 1 to 10, how important is your physical health? 3. On the same scale, how much of your time/energy/financial resources do you spend on it? 4. How much money do you spend, on average, per day on things you eat or drink that you know are not improving your health (coffee, soda, donuts, desserts, fast food, unhealthy snacks, etc.)?
  • 7. How does your daily diet compare to what your body needs? The USDA spent about a zillion dollars to figure out the minimum of what our U.S.D.A., mypyramid.gov bodies need. The New Food Pyramid can be a bit confusing, but let’s simplify it and answer the question above. Following are the requirements for a hypothetical active 35-year-old woman. If you’re male, you’ll need a bit more. If you’re sedentary or an older adult, you’ll need a little less.
  • 8. GRAINS VEGETABLES 6 oz. per day 2½ cups per day 6 - 9 servings 4 servings Furthermore, you should vary your veggies each week as follows: FRUITS Dark Green Vegetables = 3 cups weekly Orange Vegetables = 2 cups weekly 2 cups per day Dry Beans & Peas = 3 cups weekly Starchy Vegetables = 3 cups weekly 3 - 4 servings Other Vegetables = 6 1/2 cups weekly MILK MEAT & BEANS 3 cups per day 5½ oz. per day 3 servings 2 - 3 servings
  • 9. OILS & FATS SUGARS 6 tsp. per day Mostly in your dreams Note that these should Fats & sugars combined, 265 calories per day be “good” fats, and that (less than in one 2-oz. Snickers bar, or about you’re already getting the same as one small serving of fries) some of these fats in your meat and dairy foods. Who eats like this? What’s a Serving? Bread, cereals, pasta, rice, starchy vegetables Milk, yogurt, cheese - 1/2 cup whole grain cereal, pasta, rice, corn, potato - 1 cup milk or yogurt - 1 slice whole grain bread - 1/2 cup cottage cheese Fruit Dry beans, eggs, fish, meat, nuts - 1 whole fresh fruit - 2-3 oz. fresh lean meat, poultry, fish - 1/2 cup chopped fresh fruit - 1/2 cup dried beans Vegetables - 1 egg - 1 cup raw, leafy vegetable (iceberg lettuce does not Fats, oils, sweets - use sparingly count) - Salad dressing, mayonnaise, margarine, butter, - 1/2 cup chopped vegetable oil, pie, cake, cookies, ice cream
