Healthy Thanksgiving
Healthy Thanksgiving
The Holidays
Don’t Have To Be Unhealthy
Author: Dr. Stephen Chaney
It’s time
for my annual “Healthy Thanksgiving” blog. While "Healthy Thanksgiving" doesn't
quite have the appeal of the more familiar "Happy Thanksgiving" greeting, I used
it here to make the point that Thanksgiving dinner (and many other holiday
meals) doesn't have to be an unhealthy affair. After all, there is a lot to like about the ingredients in Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey can be a healthy, low- fat meat, if prepared correctly. Sweet potatoes, yams, winter squash and pumpkin are all loaded with vitamin A and other important nutrients. And cranberries are a nutrition powerhouse.
Healthy Thanksgiving
Here are some tips to make your Thanksgiving meal one
that contributes to your health:
1) Skip the basting. Choose a plain bird and cook in a bag to seal in the moisture. Remove the skin before serving.
2) Refrigerate the turkey juices and skim off the hardened fat before making gravy and use a gravy cup that pours from the bottom to minimize fat.
3) Use ingredients like whole wheat bread, vegetables, fruits (cranberries, raisins, dates or apples), nuts and your favorite spices for the stuffing and bake it in the oven rather than in the turkey.
4) Serve your sweet potatoes or yams baked rather than candied and let your guests add butter to taste.
5) Use skim milk or buttermilk rather than whole milk and skip the butter for your mashed potatoes.
6) Give your meal gourmet appeal by cooking your green vegetables with garlic, nuts and herbs rather than creamy or fat-laden sauces.
7) Don't serve the meal on your largest plates. By using smaller plates you ensure smaller portion size and even that second helping isn't quite so damaging.
8) Use the Shaklee 180 meal replacement products for one or more meals the day before and/or after Thanksgiving so that your total caloric intake over the three day period is not excessive.
By now you have the idea. There are lots of little things that you can do to make your Thanksgiving dinner one that your waist and your heart will thank you for. Bon Appetit and have a Happy, Healthy Thanksgiving!

ADD and ADHD
One of my children has been struggling in Kindergarten, to the point that I even started chatting with the teacher about holding him back next year. He was tested and only knew 4 letters of the alphabet, his teachers discussed concern about his ability to stay focused and to comprehend basic questions that were asked of him. As a former teacher I had also noticed a lot of ADD/ADHD tendencies so I decided to get him on a more strict supplement plan.
Today, just a month after our parent/teacher conference, his teacher reassessed him and he knows 23 letters out of the alphabet and she said that she's noticed that he's actually answering comprehension questions SPOT ON!!! She was amazed with his progress and asked if we had been doing anything new. I just so happened to have a catalog with me and told her I actually started him on more omegas & protein based on the research shown to help students with ADD/ADHD. She asked if I could bring her a catalog tomorrow because she's interested in it for her own children and she was so impressed with how much growth he's had in such a short time! So thankful for this company & how it's changing our lives and those around us!!! -- MIchelle P
Success to a Young Single Mom
"I came from nothing," Carolyn Spargur says, "and who would have thought" that she would come so far. Carolyn celebrated 50 years in Shaklee in 2015.
Learning Disability & Multiple Food Sensitivities
"Sebastian feels like a regular kid again! After we started him gradually and consistently with Shaklee nutrition over several months, our oldest son went from having a learning disablility, daily headaches, and fatigue (due to a leaky gut) to being well above average at school and all his other symptoms, including multiple food sensitivities are gone. I can't help but share this with other moms, if it can at least help one other child not live miserably."~Suni F.
Karla's Eczema Story
Shaklee is exactly what my daughter needed! Once we started with Shaklee supplements her improvement was noticeable almost right away and now I am proud to say that she takes no medications and can eat whatever she wants with out breaking out!
Jose Puts On a New Face
Jose has an autoimmune disease called Vitilligo which attacks skin pigment. Look at the difference in his skin after using Shaklee. His body is truly healing from the inside out. He takes Shaklee nutrition daily (Vitalizer, Vivix, Soy Protein, NutriFeron, and Vitamin B Complex) .... obviously, it is working!
Nebulizer Gone
"So glad not to have this nebulizer in my house anymore - my 3 kids used it for bronchitis over the last few months. They kept getting prescribed antibiotics and steroids but they did nothing for them. So I switched everyone to Shaklee's vitamins and changed our cleaning products and now everyone healthy." "John and I take Vitalizer. The kids take Incredivites, Mighty Smarts and Optiflora. And when we feel a tickle coming on, we take Defend & Resist." -Angie
Young Mom Successful Business
As one of our youngest leaders ever to reach
the rank of Master Coordinator, Tasha's story is compelling
I
am a mom of 2 young kids. My son is three years old, and my daughter will soon
be 2. I have a wonderful husband, who I’m so thankful for because without him,
I would not be who I am today. I have many roles in my life: mother, wife,
sister, daughter, friend, neighbor, servant, leader, business owner, and the
list goes on...I am working on balancing all of these roles and in the process,
loving the journey on which I have come. I would sum it up by saying: I am
blessed and thankful.
I
started a home-based photography, digital retouching and album design business
in 2005 as I knew I wanted to work from home to be with my kids. (I talk a
little more about this in my "got compensated" tab) I began Shaklee
because I fell in love with what this company had to offer: Safe, green
products, better health and the dream of more time and freedom with my family.
I now run both businesses from my home and get to be with my kids everyday.
Yes, life is busy! Trust me, I understand busy!...But I wouldn't want it any
other way!
HOW
DID I GET INVOLVED WITH SHAKLEE?
I
got involved with Shaklee in September 2010 when a girlfriend told me how great
the laundry products were. I was having a tough time finding a green cleaner
that worked and to my amazement Shaklee not only worked, but it also got rid of
my sons eczema! I began using the whole Get Clean line and loved it! Shortly
after, I learnt about Cinch (see my "got Cinched" tab) and began
telling everyone I knew about this great company! I could not keep it a secret!
It's that amazing!
Changing Lives one at a time.
Changing Lives one at a time.
I've been working for the past 10 years and that takes a lot of my time away from my family. I missed a lot of my kid's birthdays too because they lived a plane ride away from where I work!! I'm a Correction officer and I worked a lot of hours doing 16 hour shifts and 80 hours a week due to shortage at my facility. I spend so much time in jail that it changed myself mentally and physically. My health was going down very quickly and gaining a lot of weight due to being stressed at work and at home because I'm coming home to an empty house.
About 5 years ago me and my kids Mother got separated because of my actions and I didn't realized that being at work a lot, away from my family, and the stressed that I endure everyday at work takes a big toll on my relationship and the people that cares so much for me. I went into a depression that I even came close to loosing everything including my life. With all that was happening to me, even though we separated, my kids Mother didn't give up on me and I thank her so much for helping me get through it all and still standing right by my side. I'm so blessed to have her in my life.
Last year my health take a turn for the worse and I was at the heaviest time of my life weighing in 430 lbs, diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and blood found in my urine that leading to possibility of prostate cancer that I had to be monitored by my doctor every month. My Doctor gave me 2 choices, go on a diet or do a bypass surgery because if not my life expectancy is very very short and that was a wake up call for me. I went on different type of diet because I'm afraid of surgery and none of them workout for me. Just when I thought I was going to give up a blessing from the man above arrived on Maui which arNary Vinin Peter Paul Mendelel and Tif Vin and introduced Shaklee to me. I took up on the 180 turnaround kit and the vitalizer and the results were beyond AMAZING!!!
In 3 months I lose over 40 lbs, got off from taking metformin(diabetic meds) because my points dropped down from 9 back to 6 and the Doctor no longer saw any sign of prostate cancer so she took me off the meds they prescribed for it. I also became a Shaklee independent distributor and now I'm a coordinator and pretty close to earning my first incentive trip too. I'm truly blessed for all the people that came into my life because I see all of you as the ones that rescued me from falling and I'm very grateful for that. I will repay you all by passing it forward to everyone I come across with. I'm not where I want to be just yet but I know for a fact that with shaklee as my vehicle, my goals are within my reach. Roger Barnett, thank you so much for being a very generous person to carry on the legacy of Dr Shaklee and help effect each and everyone of us. Thank you Duke & Natasha for helping me see the opportunity because without you two I won't be where I am today. Now I can finally enjoy some priceless times with my Ohana!!!! Mahalo Shaklee and God bless us all.
