Re: O/T Has anyone heard or tried Melaleuca wellness products???

[Guest guest]

I used many of their things quite a few years at a doctor's

recommendation because of chemical sensitivity issues.

Their supplements aren't appropriate to this program...you don't want

things like copper and certain supplement additives right now.

While I was able to use many cleaning & laundry products, their items

simply aren't as free of chemicals & metals as we require. They're

proprietary about some ingredients, and sell such things as dryer

sheets and aluminum containing deodorants you may find you're better

off without, just as with any other OTC products. Food items are a

mixed bag, too, i.e., lots of soy, whey, sugars.

In short, meeting a minimum purchase commitment every month for

minimally lower prices on products that may potentially set you back

is something to seriously consider. The company runs quite a sales

pitch, but sales reps seem a little short on actual scientific

knowledge if you ask a few hard questions.

Please don't take this as a total product bashing. Tea tree oil

products can be helpful for candida issues. I'd just suggest that

with heavy metal poisoning, we're better off with inexpensive things

like borax for washing clothing, USP baking soda for brushing teeth,

and putting those dollars saved into supplements that are

hypoallergenic, pure, and limit additives/fillers.
