Let's Go Green!

Why bother? you say.   Green products are just too expensive and I pick up my cleaners at the big box stores or when I go to the grocery store.   I hear this often, but I also know with a little research,  take an inventory of your household products, you will be amazed, the $$$ we spend on cleaners, how many are gathering dirt in the basement, or under the kitchen sink.  Do you ever think about or worry if these cleaners are safe?  Or how they may affect a child's health?

Once we research the importance of using simple, non-toxic and environmentally safe products, wouldn't we want to use safe  cleaners in our homes?   Little ones are into everything and crawl or need space on the kitchen floor or the family room.   Don't you want your children free of any chemicals that might be harmful as they innocently play?   What about the toys they share with playmates?   Don't you want them to play safely without worrying that what we clean their toys with might be harmful to them?

I would like to invite you to learn about some wonderful products made by the Shaklee Corporation.   I have used their star household product, Basic-H for the last 37 years and couldn't be happier with the results.  Before anyone thought of going Green, Shaklee developed the first Green product and  introduced Shaklee distributors to the importance of keeping our streams and lakes free of chemicals and major toxins.

The first Green product introduced by Shaklee was  simply named:  Basic-H. 

Nothing fancy about the name, just: Basic-H.  Today, 50 years later, we celebrate the importance of this one product as environmentally friendly.

According to our founder Dr. Shaklee, he believed and lived the following:  "Everything in Harmony with Nature."   As I mentioned, I have used this product for over 37 years and have brought up our three kids in a Basic-H house.  

Basic-H is highly concentrated, so you need very, very little, it will go a long, long way and most important, it is a friend to our healthy living and for our children too.

Here are some wonderful ways for Basic-H to become a leading Green product in your household:

It is wonderful on windows, mirrors, cleaning your floors, spot cleaning carpeting, shower walls, grease cutter for the drains, washing the car, soaking pots and pans, dusting,  washing woolens, silks, all fine fabrics, washing fruits and vegetables, for clothing spots and many, many more uses.

Can Basic-H save you money?   Yes, inventory the cleaners in your basement, under your sink, the laundry room and in the garage.   I would imagine you have lots of $$$$ invested in all those products.   Change brands, replace them with Basic-H and look at the extra space you now have,  not to mention the $$$ you will be enjoying.

To help get the most for your dollar use the three bottles from Shaklee and the squeeze bottle pictured here.

For General cleaning: use 1/4 tsp to 16 oz sprayer or pint of water.
Windows, mirrors, fruits & veggies, watering plants:  use 1-2 drops to 16 oz sprayer or pint of water.
For anything greasy such as hands, pots & pans or as a spot remover, use the Basic-H straight or in the degreaser bottle with 1/2 teaspoon  of H.
