What does this study meant to you? For those that try to keep a clean, safe home, the results of the study are an imperative call to action. If you haven’t done so already, now is the time to rid your home of the dangerous national brand cleaning products that contain so many harmful chemicals.
Protect your family today! Replace national brand cleaning products with Melaleuca’ s Ecosense® products.
For more than three decades, Melaleuca scientists have formulated cleaning products that perform household chores with unparalleled results – without the cheap widely available, dangerous chemicals national store brands are known to contain.
Instead, we use safer, biodegradable solutions that are found in nature, like plant derived ingredients. We use thyme oil, surfactants from coconut and palm oil, natural enzymes, the same citric acid found in lemons, and 100% pure Melaleuca oil. This is why Ecosense® cleaning products are so safe that childproof caps are not required.
