One of Oprah's Favorites: Review of Shaklee's Get Clean Line

I must first admit that I do have experience with Shaklee products. I was using Shaklee products over 30 years ago, but was too young to tell any difference between them and any store brand. I was guided by my mother who told me they were much better for me and the environment. That was ok for me. Hey, I was just a kid! After all what did I care about the environment at 7 years old- I just wanted to go out and play baseball.

I recently was reintroduced to Shaklee after it had appeared on Oprah's Going Green show last April. You can catch a glimpse of it HERE . I was impressed that the company had come such a long way. The story of Roger and Sloan Barnett's son's bout with asthma touched me, as my son has battled asthma also. I bought the Get Clean pack and started using it right away. I had not really thought about the existence of toxins in my home until that show. It was eye opening for me. In fact Oprah did another show on Toxins in the home with Dr Oz - see a glimpse HERE . Both shows gave great information about how to keep healthy and help the environment as well.

When the Get Clean pack came in the mail, yes it was delivered right to my door, I was downright excited. After all, I was going to be getting my family healthy and helping the evironment at the same time. The total cost for the entire pack was about $170. with shipping, it seemed a little expensive for cleaners, but I figured I was doing my part to help the world so I bit the bullet. Shaklee makes the claim that the average family will save over $3000 by buying this pack. WOW! that $170 sounds like chicken feed. I was a little skeptical about that claim, I mean after all $3000 worth of cleaning products is a lot of products and the average family doesn't spend anywhere near that on a yearly basis. On the Shaklee Get Clean Site it documents how it arrived at that figure. In a nutshell- the cleaning power you get from your new environmentally safe GET CLEAN pack is equal to:

30 Bottles of Mop-N-Glo

1 Container of Clorox wipes
