YOUR CHOICES ARE IMPORTANT TO YOUR SUCCESS
On the surface, you probably don’t look like you have changed much, but you have. Think about how good you already feel. Here are some of the reports we are hearing after just 4 1/2 days:
“I was drinking a pot of coffee everyday and I GAVE UP Coffee!”
“I never make it to the gym this much. I am lucky if I fit it in 2 or 3 times a week . I have gone everyday so far.”
“I got my wedding ring on again- no more puffy hands.”
“I was making cookies with my kids and I accidentally licked the batter spoon and had to run to the trash to spit it out. lol This is great!”
“I could button my pants today without jumping.”
These are all good reasons to Stick with IT! Today you are probably feeling like things are getting easier. Today, is just another Day, but it’s really much more than that. It’s Official Day 6 of the Challenge (Remember that we took 6 Days to prepare.) and we are half way to our goal. If you are following an Isagenix Program it is a Shake Day.
Today, you’re working on removing the barriers that have prevented you from experiencing good health in the past.
Since you’ve been Eating Right or following the Isagenix 9 Day System, your body has been nourished with vital nutrients to strengthen your body from the inside out. You have also been giving your body enough rest, enough to drink and you have been exercising! Congratulations!
So, what else have you been doing?
Think about this: Over-farming, pesticides and processed foods have created an incredible burden on our health. If a body isn’t receiving the nutrients it needs, it will attempt to get more nutrients by triggering food cravings and hunger pangs. This can lead to overeating, which in turn contributes to obesity and poor health.
The nutrients found in the Isagenix® products bridge the gap between the low level nutrition found in regular food and the high level necessary to attain optimum health. With each Shake and Cleanse Day, you are providing your body with nutrients designed to help you achieve the best health possible. You are retraining your body to be hungry only when it requires nutrition.
Here’s a little bit more information: Research shows that a reduced-calorie diet high in nutrients helps people lose weight and live longer and now recent studies show nutritional cleansing can also help.

Both of the pilot trials showed positive results and attested to the efficacy of IsaLean Shake and Cleanse for Life for supporting adults with healthy weight loss, maintaining healthy lipid profiles, and feel better about their weight, health and energy levels.
Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Why didn’t these studies report measures other than those for healthy weight loss—body composition and lipid profiles?
A. We chose to evaluate the impact of our programs on these parameters since these type of data would help provide Proof of Concept, or further substantiation of our efficacy as sought by the FDA and the FTC. Please be aware that successful weight management not only reduces risks of various disease by normalizaing plasma lipids and reducing abdominal fat, but also, with our products, alleviates both undernourishment and exposure to stored toxins.
As a person loses weight, toxins stored in adipose tissue are also released as the fat cell shrinks. These molecules must be transferred to the liver where the detoxifying enzymes makes them water-soluble so they can be excreted in the urine or bile.
(THIS IS SO COOL AND WHY CLEANSING IS THE MISSING LINK IN MOST DIETS!)
Isagenix seeks to help solve weight management, undernourishment and toxicity with its programs—IsaLean Shake and Cleanse for Life are not only excellent for lowering caloric intake for weight management, but provides a tasty, nutrient-dense food designed to maximize nutrition and provide supportive botanicals that promote natural cleansing and detoxification in the body.
Q. Both studies showed significant decreases in plasma lipids, yet we are not allowed to claim “cholesterol lowering”. How come?
A. Scientists discuss results that were obtained. They are not marketing their results and, therefore, must describe the data they have. Companies selling dietary supplements are not allowed to say their products can “lower cholesterol” or affect other plasma lipid biomarkers because FDA deems those as drug claims.
Q. Who funded these studies and where were they conducted?
A. Isagenix funded both studies and each were conducted at New York Chiropractic College where Dr. Balliett was the Principal Investigator and Dean of the Basic Sciences Department. Isagenix proactively searched for a university who could conduct these studies according to Good Clinical Practice, get Institutional Review Board approval and have the clinical expertise to run a nutrition study on weight loss and body composition.
Dr. Balliett became interested in Isagenix through her students and eventually was appointed to our Technical Advisory Board (TAB). As a member of the TAB, she remains an impartial resource who does not distribute Isagenix products.
Q. Does Isagenix plan to perform more research with New York Chiropractic College and other universities?
A. Yes, Isagenix is actively engaged in assessing the needs for more clinical studies that may further support the efficacy and safety of our products.
Q. Have there been any clinical studies performed by independent parties that have not been funded by Isagenix?
A. We are not aware of any researchers who have studied our products in clinical trials. It is not typical for medical researchers to study products from private industry if not properly funded.
Q. Why hasn’t Isagenix funded medical doctors to perform their research?
A. Studies for dietary supplements and foods are best conducted by experts in the field. Sometimes that may be a professor with a medical degree, but most often these type of studies are best done with Ph.D.s at universities or contract research firms who have expertise in weight loss. Federally funded organizations such as National Institutes of Health, National Cancer Institute, etc. do not necessarily wish to support research on products from private industry, particularly if the studies are not mechanistic or related to diseases. Thus, it is up to individual companies to set aside research dollars to conduct third-party research. That is not to say we would not find a partner at a medical school to conduct research, but it would still have to be funded by us.
Success is all about believing in yourself and it’s easier when you can have belief in the products too!
Have a great day!
