Do you use air fresheners in your home? Below is a list of what a majority of common air fresheners have.  Remember, the government does not require a complete listing of ingredients on these chemicals and the listings can be very vague. Here are just a few ingredients your air freshener can contain: Butane, propane, ammonia, phenol, benzene, phthalates, formaldehyde Here are some of the known health problems air fresheners can cause: Allergies, asthma, skin, eye & lung irritation, depression, hyperness and ADHD type behaviors in children, central nervous system damage, liver damage, and even links to cancer. Scary, isn’t it? Some of the fresheners used that are aerosols can also make your home more flammable.  Think about it, when you spray a flammable liquid like Lysol on your furniture, your drapes, your carpet, where do the chemicals go? They go right on and into those fabrics making them more flammable should a fire ever break out ...

A question was asked recently, "How do I get a child's fever down fast?" When asked this, my first answer was not , "Reach for the medicine." I rarely give my child a fever reducing medicine unless sleep is desperately needed and he is so miserable he can’t rest. Since children are better troopers at being sick than adults are, they fare very well without medicines often times. I will always try and figure out what is causing the fever. Is it just a virus he’s picked up? Are there other symptoms? How is he acting? All these factors go into a possible diagnosis and treatment plan, if any. There are a few things to remember about fevers. Fevers are a natural response of the body to an infection. Viruses and some bacteria do not like heat and the body knows that. Therefore, the body will raise the temperature to help combat them. This is part of the immune system's defense. It is best to not interfere with this process as the quickest w...

Larry C. (Senior Director, TX) When my friend Maria B. (Senior Coordinator, TX) called from the 2009 Global Conference to talk to me about Shaklee, I was ready. At the time, I was behind on my mortgage. I wasn't sleeping well and I had a "life stinks" outlook. And even though I needed the money, I had been burned out on my previous career and didn't want to go back to it. But I had a large balloon payment coming up on my home and I was running out of options. I was working as a massage therapist, but business was slow and my income from massage therapy did not cover my monthly obligations. Ultimately, I had to use my retirement savings to cover some of my debts, but I was still behind. I had even been considering the bank's recommendation that I short sell my home. But I started working my Shaklee business and after a year my Shaklee income was enough to help me catch up on my mortgage payments. By consistently sharing Shaklee, I maintained an average of about $...

Save $ With Shaklee! Here is one way to save money by switching to Shaklee products over the store bought brands: Fabric Softener – in a 16 oz spray bottle, pour about 1 inch deep with Shaklee’sSoft Fabric Concentrate and fill the rest of the bottle with water. Shake and spray 10-12 times around inside empty dryer. Add clothes and dry as usual. Will not stain clothes and they come out fresh and soft for just pennies! Don’t do this with other brands as they will leave stains on your clothes and won’t soften them! Of course, you can also add Shaklee’sSoft Fabric Concentrate to the rinse cycle as usual - 32 ounces softens over 64 loads! Did you know that many other liquid fabric softeners contain the following? Formaldehyde and Artificial Fragrances. Yikes! The chemicals in these harmful liquids are designed to stay in the clothing, causing exposure to harmful chemicals all day long. Prolonged exposure to chemicals can cause headaches, central nervous s...
