Over the last few years, I’ve started worrying more
about my health. I’ve been eating
better, exercising more, and even learning about relaxation and mediation. I was doing everything I could to keep myself
healthy. With an increase in
availability of organic produce at the supermarkets, it inspired me to look
more into our exposure to toxins and chemicals.
In my research, I have found that there is floor wax on my apples and
Ether in my glass cleaner. It made me
sick to my stomach. Those last few years
of healthy eating… I was eating floor wax.
I decided, no more!
So I started to do some research. I couldn’t believe some of the information
that I dug up while on my quest. I found out a lot about pesticides and toxins in our foods, but what really shocked me was an article from CBS. This report goes into great detail of the dangers of simple house hold
cleaners and their toxicity. It’s really
appalling. Below is one quote from that
article.
“Lysol
Anti-bacterial Action Spray …. May cause irritation of the eyes and mucous
membranes, may cause central nervous system
depression if inhaled or ingested."
I can’t
believe that Lysol would encourage us to spray this around the house!
Another one… Clorox Disinfectant Wipes contain pesticides. We use these on surfaces that come in contact with our food and tooth brushes.
The list goes on, but did you know, that house hold cleaners fall under the Hazardous Product Act? I sure didn’t. But I do know now.
This
information lead me on yet another search.
I needed to find effective house hold cleaners that didn’t contain
chemicals.
What I found
pleasantly surprised me. I found the company
Melaleuca. At first I thought oh
great. Because I had heard of it before,
and actually I have family members who have been involved with Melaleuca
before. So initially I wasn’t
interested, but I checked out the site anyways.
It was exactly what I was looking for. The products are toxin and chemical free. They use tea tree oil (a natural antiseptic and anti-fungal oil) and organic enzymes to achieve the same results as my old cleaners. Everything is Eco-friendly (which is easily bio degradable) this includes the products themselves and even the bottles the products come in. Not only do they offer cleaners, but a whole range of health, beauty, home, and medicinal supplies that are safe and effective for us to use.
Why haven’t
you heard of Melaleuca before? Melaleuca doesn’t advertise through the
media. The source of advertising comes
from the members. Why? Media advertising
is expensive. Melaleuca wants to supply
superior products at a lower price. In
order to allow this, they can’t spend fortunes in advertising like other name
brand products. (i.e. Johnson and Johnson).
So how do they advertise? People like me. I found safe, effective products to use around my family and in my home, so I'm spreading the word!
I’d like you
to check out Melaleuca as a guest.
Please view through the products and make up your own mind if you are
interested. I’ve attached the link at
the bottom of the page.
One more thing, if you are
interested, please write to me. I want to give you more information about the company
before you sign up. They have great
products, but there are also membership stipulations that I think everyone
should know about. In every business
there are people who will try and fool you or take advantage of you. I am not one of those people. I will give you honest and straight answers
period. So please feel free to write to
me with any questions you might have. If
you would like to chat over the phone, I would also be glad to give you a
call. Just send me your number and I’ll
get back to you as soon as possible.
Enjoy the links!
