Shaklee Helps Create Healthier Lives With Its Infinite Possibilities Tour in Minneapolis Nationwide tour to impact the lives of one million families offering strategies for living a healthier life in these tough economic times PLEASANTON, Calif., March 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Jamie McManus, Shaklee Corporation's Chief Medical Officer, will help launch a nationwide campaign this month to promote an opportunity that seeks to offer better health and economic support to one million families in 2009. The Infinite Possibilities tour comes to the Park Plaza in Bloomington, MN, on March 25th. "Families are struggling to make ends meet in this difficult economy," says McManus.

"We're in the business of doing well by doing good," Barnett says. "Shaklee has actually grown during the past seven economic downturns. Our economic growth, combined with products that make people and the planet healthier, make Shaklee a powerful force for good."
