Are “GREEN” Products truly Green?  TerraChoice Environmental Marketing, a company that investigates authenticity of earth-friendly claims, stated that an astounding 99.9 percent of “so-called green products” make false, misleading or unsubstantiated claims.  Companies have become so adept at making themselves and their products look environmentally friendly that the practice has its own name … “greenwashing”.  TerraChoice investigated over 1000 green products sold in North American stores … and found that all but one made unsubstantiated, misleading or false claims.  Shaklee GET CLEAN Products are SAFE, POWERFUL, TRULY GREEN and SMART!

Tips for Use of Basic H² in the Summer:

1. Camping:  Basic-H² is all you need for dishwashing, laundry, and other cleaning jobs while camping.  It works in cold water … it is organic and biodegradable, and won’t hurt fish, vegetation or wildlife.

2. Barbecue Grills and Ovens:  Mix 2 oz. of Basic H² per gallon of water for a super degreaser.  Wash and then scour with Get Clean Scour-Off Heavy Duty Paste for a super easy cleaning of the dirtiest BBQ grill.

3. Greasy Tools:  Just 2 oz Basic-H² per 1 cup of hot water.  Soak tools … then rinse and wipe dry. 
4. Fish Odours:  Got some messy fish odours to clean up?  Then use ½ tablespoon of Basic-H² per quart of water to clean up after filleting your fish, or around boats, docks or other fishy places.

Shaklee’s GET CLEAN Products:  One mother, Catrina L. shares the following … “I wanted to get as much chemical as possible out of our environment as my son was uncontrollable after just passing the cleaners in the supermarket.  We went with Shaklee completely … and what a BIG DIFFERENCE!  After we cleared out the chemicals and started to clean and do laundry with Shaklee, the rash on my son’s face cleared, our sinus infections cleared up, and my husband now comments on the smell of homemade bread.  Best of all, my son has calmed down a great deal.  When you get the chemicals out of your environment, your family will be healthier and happier for it.  We are!”

I have a great testimonial from my daughter Beth. She spilled red wine on her car seat, don’t ask how she did that! It was two days old and she sprayed it with Basic H, dabbed it, no rubbing, and it came out.
