Simple Steps to a Healthier Life and a Cleaner planet
By Sloan Barnett
Imagine if your best friend gave you vital information that could protect you and your family, and save you money, and help the planet. Imagine if you were given clear, simple choices, small changes that could have a big impact on your life. And you could still wear leather shoes and deodorant. You'd listen, right? Well, think of Today show contributor Sloan Barnett as that friend. A mother of three, a dedicated consumer advocate, Sloan gives us a fast, simple, down-to-earth primer on the ways our homes are making us sick, and what we can all do to transform them into the safe sanctuaries we want and need them to be. Sloan exposes the toxic truth behind the household products we use every day -- from laundry detergent to toothpaste to lipstick. She explains how these and other seemingly benign stuff can harm us and our children. She offers an array of alternatives, and inspires us to see that we're never helpless: Every day, we have the power to make better, smarter, safer choices. Packed with common sense and sass, product picks and practical tips, Green Goes With Everything is for everyone who wants to live a healthier life.

Jay, walking it off at 65, a total of 15 inches and 45 pounds healthier
Since his teenage years, Jay struggled with weight and was often teased, which hit him hard in the confidence department. Through college and beyond, the weight remained difficult. Jay tried prescription diet pills, other diets, and just watching what he ate. If he did lose weight, he couldn't keep it off. It was discouraging.
Last summer Jay got a call from his friend, a fellow Shaklee Distributor. Did he know of anyone in his group who would like to be in a test group for a brand-new program for losing weight? "Yes, yes-me!" was Jay's response.
"I told my wife Linda I was committed to making it happen," says Jay. "We've used Shaklee products for 25 years and have such a strong belief in them I felt this program could work. So I started the Cinch plan and followed it just like it was laid out. And I started walking," Jay says proudly. "I followed the plan all summer and into the fall."
Jay walked every day, starting with 15-minute walks and working up to 90-minute walks. "I'm 65, so that took some doing," he says. "We live in a small village in Vermont, where you see a lot of the same people.
As the summer wore on and the pounds and inches started to fall off, I got some interesting responses," Jay recalls.
"One person said he THOUGHT he had seen me walking through town, but wasn't sure . . . another called and said she had seen Linda with a big yellow dog but didn't recognize 'the guy' she was with. Imagine!”
Simple things did the trick for Jay: Sticking with the plan and walking. Nothing fancy-just determination
"I still find myself looking in the mirror," says Jay. "I have not weighed what I weigh now for so long, it is truly amazing! I feel so blessed to have Shaklee in my life."
