A Brighter Summertime Stain Remover... Minus the Cancer Risk

Amidst a seasonal array of dripping popsicles, gushing watermelons, and thick barbeque sauces, there lives a savior to those summertime stains.


Meet Nature Bright®! The laundry booster and stain remover from Shaklee®’s Get Clean® line.

Phosphate-free and chlorine-free, this boosting whitener will zoom to the rescue and leave your clothes with even more sparkle and pizzazz than before.

But before we start spot-treatment, let’s talk a little about why chlorine-bleach is something to rid your home of...

While chlorine may have a nostalgic “clean” scent for you, it’s more dangerous than you may realize.

For starters, chlorine has been linked to the increase in childhood asthma.

But for women, especially, here’s the biggest reason to stay chlorine-free:

A study done in Hartford, Connecticut discovered that women with breast cancer have 50-60% higher level of organochlorines (byproducts of chlorine) than women without breast cancer.

Women's bodies are more susceptible to organochlorines because they accumulate in the breast’s fatty cells and mimic estrogen. This then causes abnormal cell reproduction... which leads to tumors.

One of the most prevalent suppliers of organochlorines: chlorine-bleach.

With the ratio of breast cancer reaching 1 in 8 women (source: SEER cancer statistics), why take your chances with chlorine-bleach-based laundry and cleaning products?

100% nontoxic and organochlorine-free, Nature Bright is also highly competitive with chlorine bleach on a performance-scale. In fact, a 2008 comparison study showed that it was 60% more effective on grass stains than OxiClean®.

With natural enzymes and active oxygen as its ingredients, it is friendly toward any and all fabrics, carpet, upholstery, kitchen and bath surfaces, and can even clean your patio furniture!
