Arthur Telles     Marketing Director Hi there... With all the excitement and passion I have for this company and these products and the need to help everyone I contact with life and health improvement, time just seems to get away from me. Here it is the middle of July and I promised to get back with you some time ago... it has been too long. I have to work on that. Definitely! But let's get to it. There are some tremendous reasons to become or remain an Melaleuca customer. And, there are some powerful reasons to become part of the referral system whereby you just let some folks know how they can become customers... help them to do so and earn an on-going share of the revenue from these people as they continue to purchase Melaleuca products. It does not really matter much what you have heard or believed in the past about the everyday products you buy for yourself and for your family... products to keep your home clean and hygenic and "germ" free and dust free and all or when you purchase personal care products so you can keep yourself clean and fresh as well as your family members. What matters is what I tell you now and what you can verify for yourself from sources I can provide and you can find on your own. Here it is: Every time you purchase over-the-counter cleaning products and over-the-counter personal care items from all the "regular" places... Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Sam's or Costco, your favorite Supermarket, your local pharmacy... where ever; you are putting your health and the health of your family (present and future family) at risk. That is right. At Risk! How and why? Simple. There are ingredients in these every day products that are toxic, caustic and harmful to your present and future health. These chemicals store in the tissues of our bodies and seperately or combined with other stored elements they do cause present time and future harm. May sound alarmist and brash to make such a statement. I do not make it lightly. I have done the research and I am totally willing to share that information with you. It is a fact. There are chemicals in your home right now... in cleaning and personal care items that are attaching your immune system, possibly attaching your nervous system and undermining your health. Now, let's not get too crazy about this. It is not like you are using a bar of Ivory soap for a bath or an antipresperant to stay fresh and a shampoo to clean your hair and all of a sudden you are going to fall over and die because of it. And, I am not saying because you are using Lysol to disinfect or Tide to wash your clothes and Dawn to wash your dishes that you will all of a sudden have some horrible, life threatening disease. However, I am saying the constant use of such products are hazardous to your health... even more dangerous for infants, children and the elderly but very much a danger to you and I. So, why do it? Why buy products that are assured to cause harm? Why buy products just because our Mothers and their Mothers before them bought the same brands? Why buy products because they seem to be the latest and greatest in having the cleanest house and most germ free environment and the best smelling full bodied hair or brightest teeth when every single one of these product from companies we have thought would be OK to trust actually have these contra-survival ingredients that are causing harm. Why do it? Why do it when you can have products that accomplish the same goals with better results and they have no toxic or caustic ingredients... nothing to harm... everything to nurture? It just does not make sense to buy "poisons" when you can buy healthful products to enhance your health and life and the lives of those you love. So... Just Switch Stores! Shop at the Melaleuca Store. Allow Melaleuca to earn your trust by supplying the best possible products with safe, non-toxic ingredients that are designed to enhance your life. And, get these products at realistic prices. Prices no higher than what you are already spending. Just shop at a different store... The Melaleuca Store!                 Arthur
