Shaklee have invested a lot of their money and resources into proving their products are effective and perform as described. Shaklee have invested more than $250 million in clinical testing, research and development, and their products have been examined in over 100 scientific journals. It appears industry experts are backing Shaklee and believe in their products. According to a recent survey conducted in conjunction with the U.C. Berkeley School of Public Health, consumers who used Shaklee supplements had significantly better health than those who used rival brands.

But of course Shaklee are going to tell you that Shaklee products are amazing. Do the customers agree? It appears they do.

The Barnetts, who appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, were incredibly impressed with Shaklee products. Their son suffers from bad asthma, and was constantly in and out of hospital with breathing problems. The Barnetts thought it might be something to do with the level of toxins in their house from their household cleaners. They made the conscious decision to switch to natural Shaklee products, removing toxins that can trigger asthma attacks. Since then, their son has not had to return to hospital for breathing problems, and the Barnetts are owing it all to Shaklee. This other review also sings Shaklee’s praises for reducing asthmatic problems in their family.

It seems that Shaklee do indeed outperform their rivals in terms of consumer health. In actual cleaning products, it has been noted that Shaklee products perform just as well or even better than their rival brands. It would appear that Shaklee do live up to their hype.

Shaklee have built themselves on the grounds of using natural products and being environmentally friendly. They are the first company in the world to be certified Climate Neutral™ by completely offsetting their CO2 emissions. Pretty impressive.

A big selling point and advantage Shaklee have over their rivals is that they steer clear of harsh, abrasive chemicals, sticking to natural ingredients. They only source their ingredients from sustainable sources. When natural or naturally derived ingredients are not available, Shaklee must use scientifically formulated alternatives. These are subject to strict tests to ensure they bioavailability, purity and potency- i.e. to ensure they are as green as can be. Unlike other natural companies, Shaklee are upfront and honest with all of their ingredients and processes. Some natural companies do not reveal their entire ingredients lists, and so their credibilty is somewhat doubted. Shaklee do not have this issue- there is little doubt to their standing as a natural company.

Shaklee live up to their reputation of being environmentally friendly. Their products are concentrated where possible, reducing the amount of water, packaging and energy used per unit, and ensure their packaging is recyclable where possible. Shaklee have won several awards for their commitment to improving the environment, such as the 2007 Global Green USA’s Organizational Design Award and the 2008 Stevie Award for Best Corporate Environmental Responsibility Program.

Do Shaklee products live up to their environmentally friendly hype? Absolutely.

Shaklee products may be better for the environment, and may perform better than their competitors, but are they better value for money? In hard economical times where household budgets are restricted, saving money is of uttermost importance. Despite the company’s green credentials, if consumers can get a better deal elsewhere, they are likely to go where their wallet takes them.

Shaklee products have received mixed reviews in terms of value for money, however their product Basic H2 has received praise across the board. The organic cleaning concentrate means that the same product can be used to for various cleaning duties by simply altering the product-water ratio. Basic H2 can be used to clean windows, limescale, ovens, grease, etc, eradicating the need to buy several different products, saving you money. This customer tells how 2oz of Basic H2 can make the equivalent of 728 bottles of Windex. In this instance, it is clear that Shaklee is great value for money, and again, have lived up to their hype.
