They Call Me "Mela" Gel O!
A couple things have come to mind. It’s starting to really feel like summer now in Southern California. Another thought was the traffic: Less stress on my morning commute has been a treat, which leads me to business chat.
Food for Thought:
Students seem to be out of school now for the summer (Hence lighter traffic). This tells me there is more time for play, which could also mean increased odds for possible scrapes and bruises from the neighborhood basketball games. Do you have enough band-aids in stock? For your July order you may want to prepare for the fun activities and check your medicine cabinets for plenty of supplies. As a note, you may want to check the expiration dates of your currently stocked supplies of whatever you are using now. I know some of you just can't throw away what you are using so if it’s expired now is the time to switch.
The MelaGel would be a good one get. This topical gel with melaleuca oil works great to heal those cuts, scrapes and bug bites you can incur on your camping trip this summer AND… if you order the pantry 2-pack you not only will save more money but you can give the extra gel to your neighbor who will end up falling in love with the results and ask you to bring them over to the safe train and join our Melaleuca family. BOOYAH!
DID YOU KNOW?
Speaking of first-aid ointments – I heard some news regarding Neosporin. Were you aware that Neosporin can only be used on infected wounds? If you actually use it on just a minor scrap or wound it could actually kill healthy skins cells if there is no infection.
EXCEPRT: “It is true that use of Neosporin will speed healing while reducing infection rates and scaring. However, Neosporin causes skin allergies on up to 20% (some dermatologists have told me it is closer to 25%) of those who use it repeatedly. This type of allergy is referred to as 'contact dermatitis' and is similar, though ordinarily much less severe, than poison ivy or oak. For this cause, the emergency room at the large suburban hospital where I practice no longer hand it out.”
Neosporin has three active antibiotic ingredients in a petroleum jelly base: neomycin, polysporin, and bacitracin. "Triple Antibiotic" has the same formulation. The neomycin is what causes the allergy.
MelaGel Ingredients:
• Wheat germ oil to moisturize the skin and vitamin E, which is known to help reduce potential scarring.
• Cocoa butter and other emollients to draw moisture to your skin and help it with nourishing vitamins A and D3.
• Beeswax to help Melaleuca oil cling to your skin, giving you long-lasting comfort.
There know, don’t you feel safer already?
Now go dump that Neosporin stuff and replace it will Melagel before you get hurt!
Well I hope you all are enjoying your summer and keeping safe.

How is Your Vision?
I don’t know if you are feeling the same as I am, but this year is going by so fast. It seems like July was a big blur. Uh oh… does that mean I should be ordering vitamins for my eyes? Hmmmmm... My eyes have been concerning me lately. In fact the other day I was telling Jeff I needed to see an Optometrist because the vision in my left eye seems to be getting worse. YIKES!
Food for Thought:
Have you ever tried to figure out which vitamins, minerals, and herbal supplements you need to keep up your clear, crisp vision? Or wonder if your eyes are getting the nutrients they need to function at 100%? Well you’re in luck! Melalueca has a supplement specifically created to help maintain your stellar vision. NutraView Vision Support which now includes Lutein. At its totally affordable price, I will be giving it a try.
Check out the price comparison.
Look at Centrum….. AGAIN it is a big let down!!!
DID YOU KNOW?
With all the fast food restaurants and quick, easy microwave meals, it seems many families are missing out on a lot of the nutrients needed for optimal health.
EXCERPT: “Lutein is one of the carotenoids yellow and orange pigments found in many fruits and vegetables including mangoes, corn, sweet potatoes, carrots, squash, tomatoes and dark, leafy greens such as kale, collards and bok choy. It is the major carotenoid in the fruit and vegetable rich Asian diet, and a minor one in the typical American diet which doesn't contain enough fruits and vegetables."
The best thing we can do to prevent eye disorders and heart disease is to make sure that your diet contains lots of the lutein-rich fruits and vegetables. In addition to the ones listed above, you can get zeaxanthin in orange bell peppers, oranges, corn and honeydew melon. Egg yolks also contain both lutein and zeaxanthin.
What events and lifestyle factors can indicate a need for more high-carotenoid foods?

- Smoking and regular alcohol consumption
- Low intake of fruits and vegetable
After reading all this information online and realizing I am not about to give up my wine or eat any more veggies than I already do. (Have you seen the price of produce lately?). Plus, what about the over worked soil they are grown in, lacking all the minerals.
Needless to say, I will be taking supplements to compensate for the deficiency, especially since my eyes have been having issues lately… and I am not getting any younger! If we want to keep our eyes healthy and disease free, $14.99 is a bargain!

Asthma Attack!
One morning I overheard someone talking about how their wife was suffering from Asthma and going though numerous tests to find a way to relieve some of the attacks. Of course the minute I hear any kind of ailment I immediately go to the internet to see if harmful ingredients can be attributed. Without a doubt the first website I scoped out confirmed my suspicion. It states that “Certain chemicals in common cleaning products have been associated with increased prevalence of asthma, exacerbations of asthma symptoms, and respiratory ailments.”
Since 1980, asthma has increased by 600%. The Canadian Lung Association and the Asthma Society of Canada identify common household cleaners and cosmetics as triggers.
Did you know that an average household uses and stores more than 60 hazardous products in their homes? Over 150 chemicals found in the average home have been linked to allergies, birth defects, cancer and psychological abnormalities
For so many years we have been using these products because that is what our parents used. I can’t count how many times I bought something because I liked the commercial or just because it was 50 cents cheaper than another. Who would have thought that those decisions I was making blindly could possible someday affect my health in a bad way. I hope for my family's sake I switched in time! PEACE
