Hello! We are Stephen and Rhoda Kindred! We are excited to be a part of the #1 natural nutrition company in the Nation! We started sharing Shaklee, because we want to make a difference. We are concerned with all the chemicals in the products we buy and with the lack of nutrients in our food! (visit our blog here to learn more about our family and how we use Shaklee around our hobby farm!) Our goal is to live a healthier, cleaner, natural, lifestyle and have the financial freedom to enjoy it, that Shaklee provides, not just for ourselves but for all we come in contact with!
Why we started Shaklee: In 2006, our oldest daughter starting getting regular bladder and urinary track infections, dysfunctional elimination syndrome, and reflux of the bladder. Her liver was only opperating at 60%, she had kidney disease, as well as other health problems. We took her to seven different doctors, including top specialist’s at Riley Children’s Hospital in Indy, and she was on prescription medication continually for over four years, sometimes being on five different kinds of medication at the same time with no good results. We noticed that she didn't have the energy that other kids her age had. She suffered from depression, and seemed to be 'scatter brained'. She started to do poorly in school and simple little things seemed like big mountains to her. Even the doctors told us that the medication was causing more harm to her in the long run, but they didn’t know what else to do. That is when we decided to try using herbs and vitamins.
In June 2010 we stopped all prescription medication and started taking Shaklee supplements. Just two months later, in Aug. she had her first clean urinary culture in 4 years! We noticed that she had more energy, a better attitude and her other medical problems were getting better! We were amazed at the difference that two months of being on Shaklee's natural supplements made!
In Nov. 2010 she had more follow up testing done at Cincinnati Childrens Hospital and the specialist said the herbs and vitamins are working and that he only needed to see her in a year for another checkup to make sure things were still working for her! No more trips to Indy or Cincy, tests or weekly cultures! The herbs and vitamins did in just 5 months what prescription medicine couldn't do (only made worse) in 5 yrs! We can't say enough good about using Shaklee supplements!
(UPDATE Nov. 2011) - We took our daughter down to Cincinnatti Childrens Hospital for her yearly tests and doctor visit. The tests came back GREAT! There was no reflux, the bladder is normal, no chuncks of sediment, or thickened walls. The kidneys are healthy with NO scarr tissue or damage. And more importantly all her symptoms are GONE! The doctor dismissed her COMPLETELY!
We are so thankful to Shaklee for healing our daughter and making our family healthy! Please, if you or someone you know is on perscription medication - try Shaklee - it just could save your life! (please note: we make no claims, only our own personal testimony. Please consult your doctor.)
I, Rhoda grew up around Shaklee as my Grandparents had been a part of Shaklee for over 45 yrs. However, I was never interested in using it, until my child was so sick, that we didn't know what else to do. Surprise, surprise... Shaklee WORKS!! (-just like my Grandpa said all along!)
I have seen first hand of both the good health and incredible financial freedom that my Grandparents have been able to enjoy through using and sharing Shaklee! To read more about our family life, what we do, and how we use Shaklee products -click here!

For over 50 years, Shaklee Corporation has been leading the way in natural health products and sustainable business practices.
In 1915, Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee created "Vitalized Minerals," one of the first multivitamins in the world. When he founded Shaklee Corporation in 1956, he helped pioneer both the nutritional supplement industry and a distribution method that rewards word-of-mouth referrals.
When everybody else was celebrating plastic and synthetic materials, Shaklee turned to nature—finding the purest natural ingredients for vitamins and making one of the first biodegradable household cleaners ever. When everybody else was spending their marketing dollars on advertising, Shaklee invested what would amount to billions of dollars in rewards for people who spread the word. Not to mention millions of dollars in research and development. Shaklee Corporation continues to lead the way in the belief that the health and prosperity of people and the planet offer the greatest hope for a better world.
WE'RE ABOUT HEALTH - Shaklee is the #1 natural nutrition company in the U.S. -The logical reasons are many: Over $250 million invested in clinical testing, research, and development ~ Over 83,000 tests annually for product quality ~ Over 100 scientific papers, 90 of them published in peer-reviewed journals ~ Quality far beyond industry standards ~ But the real reason is much less quantifiable. It's passion. We think health is the most important thing in the whole world. Without it, you have nothing else. Everything that goes into every Shaklee bottle is designed to make you healthy. .
LIVING IN HARMONY WITH NATURE® - True words. Spoken in the age of machines and plastic. Following Dr. Shaklee's advice, we draw from the wisdom of nature in everything we do. What that means is we make products from the purest natural ingredients. And we take stringent measures to keep out pesticides, contaminants, and other unnatural things that simply don't belong there. But just as important as what we take from nature is what we don't take. Our company was the first in the world to be Climate Neutral™, which means we operate with a net zero impact on the earth. Our world headquarters is a renowned model of environmental responsibility. We make products that are gentle on the planet. And we do not test on animals.
Dr Shaklee was a humble man. He passed the word along - to millions of people whose lives have been changed by it. You can't find a Shaklee product on a single store shelf. You find it through conversation. In the living room. On the phone. Over a cup of coffee. You find it when someone believes in it so strongly, they just have to tell you about it. Dr. Shaklee found out that this was the best way to spread the message of health, because it's based on trust in the people you know. A refreshing concept in business in Dr. Shaklee's time, and even more so today. Instead of putting money into advertising and supply chains and storefronts, we believe our money is better spent by rewarding people who share Shaklee products with the people they know.
WE'RE ABOUT DOING WHAT'S RIGHT - Sometimes, you do things because they're good for business. And sometimes, you do things just because you should. Among these are our campaign to plant a million trees. Our sponsorship of three North Pole expeditions to measure the impact of global warming. Our donation of environmentally friendly cleaning supplies, used on board Jacques Cousteau's research vessels. Our donation of vitamins and nutrition drinks to undernourished children and earthquake victims. Our support of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals to promote human rights and end poverty. Our partnership with Dr. Wangari Maathai, the first Nobel Peace laureate recognized for environmental work. Our official sponsorship of Earth Day. Our donation of almost half a million dollars to U.S. hurricane relief. Our annual giving that has topped $3 million. The list goes on. ...And so does our commitment to doing what's right simply because it is.
WE'RE ABOUT OPPORTUNITY - At Shaklee, we not only offer life-changing supplements. We offer a life-changing opportunity. To people who believe in Shaklee products enough to tell their friends about them, we offer a unique chance for them to be their own boss, on their own terms, and to work beyond whatever goals they set. We're not just talking about an opportunity to make a huge income. We're talking about an opportunity to spend time at the park with the kids. Unlike other businesses, the opportunity is yours no matter where you live, if you did or didn't go to school, or what's on your resume. Unlike other businesses with glass ceilings and salary caps, there is no limit to where this opportunity can take you!
WE'RE ABOUT DREAMS - At some time in most people's lives, they find themselves hitting the snooze button over and over on Monday morning. We think most people are snoozing when they are dreaming. We believe it's every person's innate right to be prosperous, regardless of education, class, ethnicity, gender, or location. We believe it's every person's right to live the life they have imagined. Some Shaklee Distributors have made a couple of hundreds of dollars extra each month. Others have used their Shaklee income to put their children through college, travel to places they have never heard of, become healthier than ever, buy homes, become millionaires, retire comfortably, start foundations, and dream bigger than they've ever dreamed before. In a world where skeptics, naysayers, realists, cynics, and snoozers are the norm, at Shaklee, it's normal to ask, "What if?"
WE'RE ABOUT SHARED SUCCESS - Thanks to great vision and smart business practices, we're a very profitable company. we also measure our success by how many people's lives we help make better off than before. While most businesses thrive on competition, we ask the question, "Why can't success depend on sharing?" It works like this. You're rewarded for sharing healthy, earth-friendly Shaklee products with others and by helping others to do the same. So that the more successful those people become, the more you benefit. And sure, the more we benefit. Because sharing makes everyone's share more valuable. In fact, we've paid out over $3 billion in commissions. But there's more to it than sharing financial reward. We're sharing products and a way of life that truly make people and the planet healthier. We believe this is the start of a revolutionary business and social model. One that will demonstrate how businesses can help solve many of the world's most pressing problems. Some simply call it the Golden Rule.
WE'RE ABOUT A BETTER WORLD - The principles we were founded on 50 years ago are more relevant today than ever before. That's why we're all in this. We believe we're part of a movement to make people and the planet healthier. But most importantly, all of us at Shaklee are in this because we want to do our small part. And each of our small contributions put together will create that major change we wish to see in the world. How about you?
~ Live a healthier, cleaner, natural lifestyle and enjoy financial freedom! ~
