Prior to releasing a product manufacturers only have to prove that a product is reasonably expected to be safe!!!

Editor's Notes
- Fighter B cells attack invader
- Memory cell will recognize invader in the future
- Scientific community is our biggest health concern, is immune system health. Modern lifestyle provides global travel germs can travel around the world, literally in hours.
- The immune system is the most important system of the body when it comes to preventing diseases. We are all born with different levels of immune systems. Some have a stronger immune system than others. But there are many things that can weaken an adequately strong immune system.The immune system defends the body from developing potentially harmful diseases and conditions caused by bacterial, parasitic, fungal and viral infections. The immune system also restricts tumors and cancerous growths inside the body.
- As we know, Shaklee won't sell a product if they can't source a totally natural ingredient, with herbs finger-printed for purity - Shaklee has been around for a very long time and can afford to do this. For start-up companies, we know cost is a big factor in all that they do - so basically it comes down to putting trust in what they are saying without real proof.
