Has anyone ever heard of this? My friend has a child with fragile x and she said within 2 months of using the vitamins, he's improved so much and his consentration is so much better. They also have cleaning products and lotions and stuff...I just didn't know about all of this...it's a wellness thing I guess...thanks for you help!

I've heard of it a long time ago. They are products made with tea tree oil. Renee just started using the cleaning supplies. Tea tree oil is antifungal. I use tea tree oil (from walmart) mixed with water in a spray bottle for spraying down the shower. I also put it on dh's feet :) Ds got ring worm once and it cleared right up with the tea tree oil.

Yeah, I have been doing melaleuca for a few months now and I like it.

It is basically a multilevel membership thing but you don't have to sell or recruit. If you do you get more money of course, but it is a no pressure thing. They have natural cleaning products, health prodructs with everything from shampoo and allergy medication to make up and diet drinks and vitamins.

The down sides, you have to spend about $60 a month (35pts) or they send you some stuff automatically. Not a problem for me. I easily can go over that each month on what I typically get at other stores. And, to get the full advantage points you have to order by the 16th of the month.

The upsides, the cleaning products are natural and safe (one has a strong odor that I don't let the kids use) but the rest is fine for them to use. They cleaning products work fantastic and often you use less than what you typically would so all the products are comparable to regular brands and many are even cheaper. For instance, the small laundry detergent is $5 and does 36 loads. The large on is $14 and does 96 loads or more I think. You also get 10% of your order in advantage dollars. Every time you get to $25 advantage dollars you can get that many products free on your next order.

Do I sound like a sales girl, lol. I didn't mean to. I am enjoying it. The only thing that isnt doing great is the kids shampoo isn't really working for Cait's hair. I don't know if it is her and her rinsing ability or the shampoo. It is working fine for the other kids. She won't use adult shampoo yet for fear of the eyes thing.

gee, I don't know how much it would cost. I can check into it. email me at rbaer4@sbcglobal.net

As for the $60 a month, I am finding it really easy with our six, but I think it depends on what you use each month anyway. My mom had the same problem. She is only 1 person and doesn't think she would use it. Check out the website anyway and see if it would save you to have your own membership. www.melalueca.com I think. If you need to get a membership under someone I think you can do it under me even if you are not local. If not I can look into how much it is to ship.
