10 Reasons Why Shaklee Cinch® Is an Exceptional Value

2 Replies

Shaklee Cinch ProductsCinch is Shaklee’s Weight Management Program. Of course there are many weight-loss programs out there. Some are terrific. Some are not so good. Is this the best one? I think so because it has worked for me. Shaklee products and vitamin supplements are always always safe, always effective, and always green.

Clinically tested† and specially formulated to help you break the diet cycle so you:

  • Keep muscle you have.
  • Burn fat you don’t need.
  • Lose inches you don’t want.

  1. The Real Deal

    With the Cinch Inch Loss Plan, which includes a regimen of protein-packed shakes and energy-boosting
    teas, you will lose inches and pounds. Period. Our medical doctors, nutritionists, and scientists
    have drawn on years of sports and nutrition science to develop a plan that works. In fact, those
    who participated in our clinical study lost an average of 16.3 pounds of fat, 4.1 inches from
    their waists, and 2.6 inches from their hips over a 12-week period.†

  2. Easy on Your Wallet

    Why pay for calorie-rich fast food that can add more inches to your waist when you could
    have a tasty, wholesome, protein-rich Cinch meal replacement for a fraction of the cost?

  3. One Word: Leucine

    Our tasty Cinch Shakes, Meal-in-a-Bars, and Snack Bars are Powered by Leucine™, a
    muscle-retaining amino acid that helps you keep muscle while you lose fat and inches.
    Why are muscles important? Muscle = Metabolism. This translates into more calories
    burned and fewer inches on your waist. Good? Yes! It’s the key to long-term success.
    In fact, those who were tested in a clinical study lost fat, pounds, and inches while
    retaining 100% of their lean muscle mass.†

    † Findings based on lean mass estimates in a 12-week preliminary study. Cinch Vanilla
    Shake Mix Whey Protein Blend and Cinch Meal-in-a-Bars were not included in this study.

  4. Pleases Taste Buds, Satisfies Hunger

    Not only do Cinch products taste great, they’re packed with protein so you feel full and
    not deprived. More than 90% of participants in a study reported that their energy levels
    were either “very good” or “great” while on the Cinch Inch Loss Plan.† The program
    provides loads of nutrition and includes our Cinch 3-in-1 Boost™, which helps reduce
    cravings by retaining normal blood-sugar levels, and two flavors of Cinch Energy Tea Mix
    to help keep you feeling great all day long.*

  5. Packed with Goodies—And Then Some

    Every Cinch Shake and Meal-in-a-Bar is high in protein and provides a healthy serving of
    vitamins, minerals, and fiber. When mixed as directed, our shakes—available in four
    great flavors: vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and café latte—deliver 24 grams of protein
    per serving while each Meal-in-a-Bar contains 20 grams. Choose from Blueberry
    Almond Crisp or Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip. Many people continue to use the shakes,
    bars, and the tea mix after they lose weight simply because they enjoy the great taste.

  6. Grab and Go

    On the go? Crazy schedule? Back-to-back meetings? No more excuses. Just throw a
    Cinch tea stick, Meal-in-a-Bar, or one of our convenient single-serve shake packets in
    your briefcase, purse, or gym bag and enjoy when you want.

Got milk? Want to lose it?

Leave a reply

Losing weight means different things to different people. I think of it as shedding gallons of milk.

How much does a gallon of milk weigh?

One gallon of milk

That seems like plenty. How about two gallons?

Two gallons of milk

That starts to add up fast. Three gallons?

Three gallons of milk

This is more than I can carry in with the groceries. Four?

Four gallons of milk

Now that is quite a load. Almost 35 lbs. just from those four gallons of milk.

What does this mean for losing weight?

For each 8.6 lbs. I can lose, it will be as if I no longer have to carry a gallon of milk around with me all the time. So if I can reach my weight loss goal it will be like I have shed several gallons of milk. So I no longer have to carry it with me every where I go. That has to be easier on my body, on my joints and back.

And the best part will be that the majority of this unwanted weight will come off abdominal fat. And that is what I want to lose most of all.

So where am I now?

I have been using Shaklee Cinch for 9 weeks now and I have honestly lost 30 lbs. So I no longer carry 3 1/2 gallons of milk!

Three and a half gallons of milk = 30 lbs.

But I am not finished there. I want to lose another 20 lbs. and have a BMI (Body Mass Index)  under 25.  And for the first time in years I will no longer be in the “Overweight” or “Obese” categories.  I know that I will feel better and that it will be a good trip to the doctor next time.

From personal experience I can recommend Shaklee Cinch. It has worked for me – when nothing else has – and I feel confident that I can reach my goal.

If you want to know more about Cinch,  and if you want to start losing those gallons of milk, let us know by contacting us here or heading over to our site to get started with Cinch.

Good luck with your program!

Dangers of Abdominal Obesity

Leave a reply
You’ve probably already heard about the dangers of abdominal obesity (otherwise known as “belly fat”).
You’ve probably heard that it increases your risk of diabetes, heart disease, stroke and cancer.
But did you know that it could literally be killing you – even if you are at ideal body weight?A group of scientists at the National Institutes of Health recently analyzed data collected from 44,000 women in the Nurses’ Health Study over a 16-year period and asked if abdominal obesity affected their death rates from heart disease and cancer(Zhang et al, Circulation, 117: 1658-1667, 2008).The answer was a clear-cut yes!

The study showed that women with a waist circumference of 35 inches were twice as likely to die from heart disease and cancer than women with a waist circumference of 28 inches – even if they were at ideal body weight.

But you might be asking “How can they be at ideal body weight and still have abdominal obesity?”

There is a natural tendency to lose muscle mass as we age. When we add in the inactivity associated with the American lifestyle that loss of muscle mass is accelerated and the muscle is replaced with fat.

Thus, it is actually possible in today’s world to have both normal weight and abdominal obesity – and that is not a good thing!

Of course, the women who were both overweight and had abdominal obesity were even more likely to die from heart disease or cancer.

So it is not just about not looking good in your bathing suit – abdominal obesity is a killer!

However, the good news is that you can do something about abdominal obesity.

A combination of exercise, a healthy diet and the “Cinch Inch Loss Plan” is a proven way of getting rid of that unsightly belly fat forever.

To Your Health!

Our Favorite Shaklee Products

Leave a reply

There are many Shaklee Products that we think of as our favorites. We hope that you will be interested to try them out for yourself. And remember that there is always a money-back guarantee – they are that good!

1. Vivix®. Shaklee calls it “a revolutionary breakthrough in the fight against cellular aging.” The ingredients in Vivix have been shown in laboratory studies to positively impact the four key mechanisms of cellular aging. In fact, a 30-day supply delivers the equivalent amount of resveratrol found in 3,000 glasses of red wine, and laboratory studies found Vivix to be 10x more powerful in slowing a key mechanism of aging than resveratrol. It’s really good stuff!*
2. Shaklee Vitalizer™. This is my foundation. In one daily packet I get foundational nutrients I need, including sustained release B and C vitamins, minerals and more, plus probiotics, Omega-3s and more. If you’re like 9 out of 10 Americans, you don’t eat enough fruits and vegetables, and that means you may not be getting enough of the right nutrients. That’s a great reason to supplement what you eat and I really like the way Vitalizer makes me feel!
3. Cinch® Vanilla Shake Mix: Soy or Cinch® Vanilla Shake Mix: Whey. I love these shakes for so many reasons. They are rich in protein, I can mix in strawberries, bananas, peaches, whatever and it always tastes great. That’s my routine…blender, milk, fruit, cinch shake powder. It’s so good. I feel full and stay feeling full throughout the morning. They’re great for people watching what they eat. Both feature an ingredient called Leucine which helps retain muscle.
4. Basic-H2® Organic Super Cleaning Concentrate. I love this because I can use it in so many different ways around the house. I clean my whole house with it. One bottle goes a long, long way. A 16 oz bottle creates an unbelievable 48 gallons of super-safe, really powerful, all purpose cleaner. It replaces so many household cleaners I used to buy at the grocery store. It’s concentrated, so it saves me a lot of money compared to ready-to-use cleaners. It’s nontoxic, too!
5. NutriFeron®. NutriFeron is “a clinically supported blend of immune-strengthening plant extracts.” I simply call it an immune system booster. It’s in my top 5 because so many of my friends and family use it. I feel like it boosts my immune system defenses and helps increase my resistance wherever my paths take me.*
6. Nutrition Therapy Skin Care System™. This is a great skin care system, for women and men. The exclusive to this is “Vital Repair+® which blocks ALL those skin-damaging free radical reactions and actually allows the skin to keep making healthy cells.” For me, I like it because it leaves my skin looking smooth and feeling incredible.
7. Nature Bright® Laundry Booster and Stain Remover. This stuff is like gold in my laundry room. I use it on grass stains, dirt, even stains on upholstery in the car or home. You name it. It cleans with “natural enzymes and active oxygen” so it seems to keep my clothes bright without fading, but still clean.
8. Fresh Laundry Concentrate (Powder). If awards were given out for the amount of wash that is done in homes, our home could qualify to be a winner. I really like Fresh Laundry Concentrate Powder. The fragranced version smells great, it cleans very well. It cleans with natural enzymes and biodegradable surfactants, and is very safe in water systems. I love that it is concentrated too. With just a ¼ cup, you can clean a whole load.
9. Cinch® Snack Bars. When I get those cravings for a snack, I really like having Cinch Snack Bars around! Each bar has 10 grams of protein and only 120 or 130 calories—I like that, a lot. When I look at some other bars on the market, they often don’t even have 3 grams of protein and they’re full of sugar. Like the shakes and meal bars, these Cinch snack bars also have Leucine, which helps preserve muscle. And, they taste great!
10. Cinch® Energy Tea Mix. For me, Cinch teas are a safe, natural energy boost and a great alternative to sugary snacks, coffee and soda. You can drink it hot or cold. It comes in little single serve sticks so you can just add it to a water bottle; they’re very portable and packable. One of my favorite parts – it’s not too tart and not too sweet. It’s just right!
