My family saves so much money shopping here every month. The nontoxic laundry detergent I use is only $19.49 for 96 loads. It also smells AMAZING! It’s scented with essential oils, so I get the great scents without harmful fragrances.
I’m also convinced that Heaven smells like the Tough & Tender all-purpose cleaner. Tough & Tender works better than anything I’ve ever used (and I loved 409) and costs $1 a bottle.
Years ago, I had a huge misconception that safer products meant higher prices and zero scents. I’m happy to admit I was wrong. When I started shopping at this online wellness store that offers safer products without an insane price tag, I was astounded to learn they could offer these prices because they don’t pay for advertising, celebrity endorsements, or shelf space. The company puts those dollars into higher quality ingredients. Yet they still offer their products to preferred customers at a fraction of the price you find at Target. I just feel like person to person, you need to know a place like this exists because HALLELUJAH.
In fact, I just got another shipment from the Wellness Company. These days, I buy all of my household essentials here. I’m excited to try the new fruit and veggie wash—Harvest Pure! I really love this store and how they help so many families improve their health and finances. I know shopping here and referring friends has helped bridge that GAP!
Are you ready to transform your life and prioritize your health? Join us for the R3 Fit for Fall Challenge, starting on October 6! This is not just another diet; it’s a sustainable lifestyle change designed to help you enjoy your favorite foods while improving your wellness.
If you’re wondering if this program works or not…take it from me, it does. In June of 2022 I was almost 250 pounds and figured what did I have to lose? (Weight, of course) I decided to give R3 a try. I did start losing weight following the plan. Mind you it’s not a diet, it’s a lifestyle switch. At the end of the six-week challenge I was informed I had placed second in percentage of weight loss! I was amazed. I continued following the Real Life part of the plan and by November I had lost 87 pounds. In December I was down by 100 pounds. The following April my weight loss totaled 125 pounds. The best part? I have kept off the weight! It hasn’t come back to haunt me (well, except for 10 pounds that arrived with the prednisone prescription) I plan on ridding myself of those 10 pounds inn this challenge! Who wants to join me to kick off a healthier holiday season?
What is R3? R3 is a straightforward, easy-to-follow lifestyle plan that allows you to eat the foods you love without counting calories, grams, or ounces. The plan consists of three simple steps:

Think you don’t use enough of the products to shop at the Wellness store where I shop?Think again! There are 11 aisles and almost 500 products available for you to try out and love. This attached photo shows the products I’ve used today in my bathroom—all of them came from my Wellness store. The photo doesn’t include my supplements, cleaning supplies, laundry supplies or other family member’s items. (Shakes, vitamins, bath and shampoo, hair products.)
Let me know when you are ready to make the switch to these affordable, higher quality, non-toxic products, emphasis on non-toxic, I will personally give you a guided Store Tour. Once you shop here, you’ll wish you had started shopping here years ago.
Reaching out to help households find healthier, money saving, time saving, and better working is a joyful mission. Today, I’m sharing what our Shopper Tina S. shared with us. “Since today is laundry day, I thought I’d share what we’ve been using for many years. I get it from our online shopping club and it is amazing! It uses a pump that is pre-measured so it takes all the guess work out of doing the laundry. It’s super concentrated, so you only need one third of an ounce per load which means I’m saving lots of money…and there aren’t any of the harsh chemicals to give us skin issues, breathing problems or make us sick. I love this laundry line because of how affordable it is and how well it works. I cannot get enough of the scent either—the Lavender scent is my favorite. I will never go back to those other brands EVER! It costs only $19.49 for 96 loads which makes me One Happy Shopper!
I have seen a several eco-friendly “effective” cleaners doing expensive advertising on Facebook recently. I can only imagine what that does to the price of their products.
My online shopping club offers a brand that’s concentrated to make SIX spray bottles at a cost of $1.16 a bottle. The competitive brand’s concentrate on the left makes four bottles at a cost of $5.00 per bottle.
Probably not because high blood pressure typically doesn’t have any symptoms. Sorry, trick question. That’s why we need to routinely measure our blood pressure!
And yet…. this is a problembecause it means that often the first people learn about it is when they sustain some vascular injury as a result (stroke, heart attack, kidney disease, etc)
What IS high blood pressure? Well, a US survey found, in answer to a multiple choice question on the topic:
25% believed that anything under 140/90 was fine
18% considered 130/90 to be the threshold
16% thought it was 140/80
13% got it right, at 130/80
We should aim for 120/80. But did you know that 120/79 qualifies as elevated blood pressure? Incidentally, the best workout to lower high blood pressure is isometric exercises (i.e. exercises where you hold a position without moving, such as wall sits or abdominal planks). There’s always something new to learn!
The following is an excerpt from Good Energy, the best seller from Dr. Casey Means, the current US Surgeon General.
A Tale of Three Yogurts: Which is Ultra Processed?

Minimally Processed (Good to Eat)
Straus Whole Milk Organic Greek Yogurt: Organic Whole Milk, Yogurt Cultures (2 ingredients, live active cultures, cows are pasture-raised on pesticide-free grass
Choose a yogurt that is organic, has minimal ingredients (Ideally just milk and cultures), has no added sugar and says “Live Active Cultures” on the label.
Some people say they don’t want to drink before bedtime so they don’t have to get up at night to use the bathroom. I asked a cardiologist, “Why do people, especially old people, pee so much at night?” His answer was: “When you stand or sit, the force of gravity holds water in your lower body. This is why legs can swell. When you lie down, your lower body seeks balance with the kidneys. So the kidneys remove the water along with the trash because then it’s easier.”
Water is essential to remove waste from your body.
According to cardiologists, the best time to drink water is best done at well-defined times to maximize efficiency throughout the body. Here are the optimum times
Drink two glasses of water right after waking up to activate internal organs.
One glass of water 30 minutes before each meal will help improve digestion.
One glass of water before taking a bath (or shower) will lower blood pressure.
One glass of water before going to bed, will prevent a stroke or heart attack.
Drink water before bed TO avoid leg cramps during the night. (Your leg muscles, when you have cramps, are seeking water and moisture.)
