It’s been one month since the SLMsmart Challenge officially kicked-off, and many Challengers are already seeing results and feeling great. Jim Smith of Anaheim has been a positive and incredibly honest challenger so far. He’s tried other programs and diets in his life and sees the value of SLMsmart. Additionally, he’s quick to realize the realities of weight management. He knows it to be tough, he knows it to be rewarding. Here are a few insights he submitted at the end of his first 30 days:
In your Challenge experience, what has been the most pleasant surprise so far?
“The great taste of the new chocolate Health Shake. I typically mix two cups of either kale or spinach with 3 scoops of Health Shake mix and one cup of unsweetened almond milk. I cannot taste the kale or spinach. What a great way to get the benefits of these wonderful vegetables.”
What advice would you give to someone new to SLMsmart and the SLMsmart Challenge?
“Do your daily planning and tracking with the tools provided. Don’t be too hard on yourself if you are not perfect and slip from time to time. Get support wherever you can find it.”
What tool or product has been the most useful to you so far?
“Health Shake and the closed Facebook group.”
What would you say to someone who is CONSIDERING whether or not to join a SLMsmart Challenge?
“If you truly want to lose weight and be healthier, start immediately. If you don’t, you will find yourself looking at the same person in the mirror a year from now and be just as dissatisfied. The key is to take ACTION and START.”
Other thoughts?
“I must admit that it’s a battle. One doesn’t change 30 years of bad lifestyle choices overnight. This kind of program and these questionnaires help keep my goals in focus and allow me to start again every day with new optimism. I am committed to not giving up and making small changes each and every day.”

He completed extensive post-doctoral research at the University of California – San Diego where he discovered novel protein phosphorylation cascades involved in nutrient signaling (nutrigenomics) – processes that when disrupted by poor diet, lead to metabolic disease and chronic illness.

Now, at Nature’s Sunshine Products, the parent company of Synergy WorldWide, Dr. Tripp serves as the Chief Scientific Officer. His responsibilities include working to oversee the company’s product research and development operations.

SLMsmart Health Shake is a delicious meal replacement that can help you manage your weight. However, because Health Shake has been formulated with such a unique blend of proteins, it can be used as more than a weight management aide. In fact, Health Shake may be used as a helpmate for anyone who may be aspiring to build muscle, tone muscle, or maintain a powerful physique.This is why the winner of the current SLMsmart 90-day Challenge will be selected based on total body transformation and not simply the weight management results. Combined with the proper diet and exercise routine, SLMsmart can be a key player in helping to feed your muscles the protein, fat, and carbs that they crave to become stronger.Drew Manning is a great example of someone who uses Health Shake daily to maintain the muscle he has been developing and sustaining over time. As one of two SLMsmart coaches helping Challenge participants reach their target weights, he drinks Health Shake twice per day, every day.
Drew’s Muscle Maintenance Plan:
For breakfast, mix 3 scoops of Health Shake with 8 oz. of water or almond milk, and blend together with your favorite fruits, vegetables or other healthy ingredients
Mix 1-2 scoops of Health Shake with 8 oz. of water after completing a weight lifting workout routine
Drew has also recommended that anyone looking to add muscle will benefit from adding one more serving Health Shake to that daily routine.
Drew’s Muscle Building Plan:
For breakfast, mix 3 scoops of Health Shake with 8 oz. of water or almond milk, and blend together with your favorite fruits, vegetables and other healthy ingredients.
Mix 1-2 scoops of Health Shake with 8 oz. of water or almond milk after completing a weight lifting workout routine.
Mix 1-2 scoops of Health Shake with 8 oz. of water or almond milk before going to bed at night.
When you work your muscles, the tissue breaks down. The whey, soy and casein proteins in SLMsmart are a slow-digesting formula that will aid in supporting muscles. Eating—or drinking—a protein-packed meal right before bed and soaking those muscles with protein is a strategy popular amongst bodybuilders.
In addition, SLMsmart’s formula contains healthy carbohydrates that help support glycogen levels and offers the body a full meal’s worth of vitamins and minerals.
“SLMsmart is a unique combination with a protein blend backed by science,” Drew said. “There is a specific reason that each ingredient and each amount is in this blend. That’s why I trust the SLMsmart technology in general. There is real science behind it. This product is different because there is a medical board behind it.”
Drew said that while drinking SLMsmart two or three times per day may seem mundane, it doesn’t have to be. SLMsmart is available in both vanilla and a new, rich chocolate flavor. He and his wife Lynn Manning have created a number of crave-worthy shake recipes that you can make. The recipes include a Butterfinger shake, chocolate mint shake and banana cream pie shake, to name a few, and are all found on the SLMsmart App that is made available to you by signing up for the 90-day Challenge.
Join the Challenge now for discounted packs and exclusive Challenge scratch-off cards.

Not only does he follow the SLMsmart app exercises, he spends his weekend active on his dirt bike, doing his best to move quickly and keep his blood pumping!
In your Challenge experience, what has been your most pleasant surprise so far?
“That I’m not always hungry.”
What advice would you give to someone new to SLMsmart and the SLMsmart Challenge?
“Just cowboy up and do it!”
What tool or product has been the most useful to you so far?
“Can’t single one out. They work together quite well.”
What would you say to someone who is CONSIDERING whether or not to join a SLMsmart Challenge?
“If you need to lose weight and don’t know where to start, this is the best way to get started.”
Results so far?
“Down 22 lbs, a few inches on my waist gone and in my face. I feel great. I hate working out, but this hasn’t been bad and I am enjoying the benefits!”

GRAND OPENING: Hughes Center for Research and Innovation The Grand Opening of Nature’s Sunshine’s Hughes Center for Research and Innovation commenced February 27, 2015, at Nature’s Sunshine Headquarters where a 5,400 sq. ft. area now houses labs, clinical space and rooms for consultations and clinical studies.
“The Hughes Center for Research and Innovation is designed to help combat health mega-trends driven by diet and lifestyle choices through natural, nutritionally therapeutic products,” said Gregory L. Probert, Nature’s Sunshine Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Combining our scientists with new technology, we will continue to lead development of effective herbal and nutritional products for consumers worldwide by studying supplement interactions at a molecular level.”
The Hughes Center is one of the most advanced research centers of its kind and is a true signal of Nature’s Sunshine’s and Synergy’s economic strength. Utah Governor Gary Herbert attended the event to officially open the center and recognize both companies as hugely influential businesses in not only Utah, but also the world.
This multi-million-dollar facility is equipped with state-of-the-art instrumentation that will allow scientists to analyze interactions between the body’s systems and Synergy WorldWide’s nutritional supplements. By inspecting these interactions at a molecular level, biologists, chemists, and physicians, will be guided to the most bioactive and potent formulations.
“The Hughes Center for Research and Innovation incorporates some of the most advanced technology in the industry,” said Dr. Matthew Tripp, Nature’s Sunshine Chief Scientific Officer. “For example, the Flexmap3D can analyze 500 analytes, such as genes and proteins, from a single human sample, such as a drop of blood. Moreover, with this machine, 144,000 data points can be analyzed in one hour, which provides rapid quantitative analyses of various biomarkers.”
Nature’s Sunshine and Synergy WorldWide are deeply committed to formulating natural, scientifically tested products that the consumer can fully trust.
At Synergy WorldWide, we are serious about proving the quality of our products. The future of Synergy WorldWide is incredibly bright, and we cannot wait to share the groundbreaking research that will be done in this center.
