Shaklee Sports Nutrition – A Long History of Great Achievements

Here is a list of some of the big events over the many years:

Sports Nutrition | A Long History of Great AchievementsTime Life’s: The Greatest Adventures of All-Time documents 25 of the most incredible events in history. Interestingly, more than one quarter of these great achievements were projects that involved the use of Shaklee products.

Wil Steger’s Polar Expeditions: “Shaklee has been helping explorers and elite endurance athletes meet nutritional challenges for decades,” he explained. “My personal collaboration with Shaklee dates back almost 15 years, when the company served as one of the major sponsors for my 1986 polar trek — the first unsupported trip by dog-team to the North Pole.”

Voyager: The Voyager was the only aircraft to fly around the world nonstop without refueling. Shaklee was responsible for dietary advice and provided nutritional products for Dick Rutan and Jeana Yeager, the two daring pilots for this nine-day around the world adventure.

Daedalus: Shaklee Performance Maximum Endurance Sport Drink was developed as the sole “fuel” for the Greek Olympic cyclist, Kanellos Kanellopoulos, who provided the pedal power for the Daedalus aircraft. The Daedalus aircraft flSports Nutrition | A Long History of Great Achievementsew from Crete to the Greek mainland and set the world record for human powered flight, a feat equivalent to two back-to-back marathons.

Jacques Cousteau’s ocean explorations: Shaklee provided products for the two Cousteau research vessels, Calypso and Alcyon, as well as sponsored the magazine for children, Dolphin Log.

Sports Nutrition | A Long History of Great AchievementsNASA -In the early 1990′s, NASA came to Shaklee asking them to create a rehydration drink for the astornauts. Thus Shaklee created a sports nutrition rehydration drink called Astro Aids – the Official Product Created for Space travel (known to the rest of us as Shaklee Performance).
