Scour Off - Cleaning my sink

Scour Off
(notes taken from the Shaklee web page)

Scour Off™ Heavy Duty Paste

Size: 9 oz.  

Here’s an exclusive scouring cleanser that sets a new standard. It’s a paste, so it doesn’t form dust clouds. It cleans stuck-on messes. It even cleans burnt-on food in your oven. And it doesn’t burn off your nose hairs in the process.

The directions on the web site for using Scour Off are:

• Natural ingredients remove the toughest dried-on splatters and spills, burned-on grease, baked-on food, and sticky messes without hazardous chemicals or toxic fumes.
• Scour Off is made from natural mineral abrasives and biodegradable cleaning agents. It does not contain chlorine, bleach, or dye.
• Scour Off gently removes stains other cleansers can't and is great for cleaning tubs, ovens, sinks, and tiles.
• It will even remove rust, and is great for cleaning these surfaces: copper, grout, cement, ceramic, and imitation marble.
• Wide-mouth jar makes it easy to use.

 So, I needed to clean my sink. Got out the Scour Off, a sponge, water and got to work. A little goes a long way.

Sink needs some shine - started with Scour off and a sponge pad

Got shine ! Took the length of boiling the kettle for tea.

Core Energy

Core Energy is a real help for maintaining for those long days and commutes. I read recently that the average commuter spends 2 hours a day traveling. I find it helps me keep up my positive energy.

Mental Acuity Complex

This is my new favorite for keeping my mind in shape. The notes below come from the Shaklee web site.

Mental Acuity Complex teams Ginkgo biloba with hawthorn, bilberry, and rosemary – herbs that have protective properties – to help maintain such normal cognitive functions as memory and decision making.

Contains a standardized extract of Ginkgo biloba leaf (24% flavone glycosides, 6% terpene lactones)

Three capsules provide 120 mg of ginkgo

In recent studies conducted with older test subjects, ginkgo was shown to help maintain normal cognitive functions, such as memory and decision making

It’s believed that Ginkgo biloba extract improves blood circulation to all areas of the body, including the brain, thereby increasing mental acuity and reducing absentmindedness

Also contains hawthorn, bilberry, and rosemary: important herbs with protective properties

Breakfast, Snacks, Lunch and Coffee Break

My Shaklee supported Meals:

This is my core breakfast - Cinch mixed with milk or soy milk,  and yogurt with blueberries and a banana in a blender. I take Vivix and one day's supply of Vitalizer (vitamins) at this time. When I have to leave at 4:30 for work, I have found that this lasts me until 9:30 coffee break. I usually eat a Cinch Snack Bar and some fruit, maybe some nuts and that does me until lunch at 12:30. Then I'll have some chopped up vegetables and yogurt/sour cream and spices dip that I make, and a piece of fruit. If I'm still hungry I'll have half a Cinch Meal Replacement bar. For afternoon coffee I'll have some Cinch Tea, an Energy Chew, and the rest of the bar and a piece of fruit.

My favorite - Cinch Vanilla

Upfront - I use Shaklee Health and Home Products

SHAKLEE has been in the news frequently - this link gives an overview if you want to read more right away.


I've been using Shaklee products for over 20 years. Like many in my age group I had lapsed in looking after my own health but when I got to my 50's the wakeup call came and I am now paying attention. I have a daughter with a wonderful grandson and want to see him grow up.

To help me become fit and healthy I've added daily walks and started using Cinch products to help me loose weight. My goal is to get rid of my stomach fat. I also decided to become an active Shaklee Distributor, not just a user of the health and home products. To help me I joined the Freedom Project and have been learning to use my computer to build my business.

Yes, Shaklee is a multi-level business. I signed up through my parents more than 20 years ago and used the vitamins and some cleaning products, mostly Basic H, over the years. Since moving to the coast this summer and staying with my Dad, a 30+ year Shaklee Director, and going to Shaklee sponsored presentations about new products and opportunities available I know that I can build a business for myself based on the Shaklee products.

If you want to become a Shaklee User or Shaklee Distributor I would be pleased to sign you on and give you support in setting up your own business. Click on Rob's Shaklee Web Page and you can sign up through there.

You can learn about using your computer at home to start and run business from my  Freedom Project web page by following the links there. Click here for Freedom Project Home Page.

Over time I will be discussing and showcasing Shaklee products; use in the home, nutritional use. As well I will 'show and tell' how I am personally using the various cleaning products to take care of my car, clean the house, do the laundry, helping keep my home clean and family healthy using 'green' products.
