About Us  Pat Craumer -- Customer Advisor, Distributor, Mother, FriendI have always considered myself to be a health conscious person, trying to eat right, exercise, and read up on the latest health trends and issues. But only after hearing a talk by Dr. Bill Coury, a doctor who spoke at a meeting about why our health is so compromised in America, did I realize I have a lot of cleaning up to do in my life, too! I was jolted into an understanding about a whole level of health I hadn't considered. His description of the daily stresses of impure water, refined sugar, chemical exposure, etc. really resonated with me and inspired me to make changes that now I am so happy I've made. Did you know that a can of Coke takes about 9 hours for the body to process? Not only are you NOT getting the kind of hydration you'd get with a glass of water, but you're giving your body something that it has to work extra hard to get rid of. And diet soda leaves chemical residues that build up over time and are hard on your organs. Some chemicals that we are exposed to never leave the body. That very day I dropped Diet Coke from my diet, started reading labels more earnestly, chose to buy bottled mountain spring water, and started taking subtle energy charged noni daily. One thing I do religiously is Read Every Label in my personal care products, household products, and foods. I avoid completely anything with dyes, and you would be amazed at what food products contain dyes. This isn't hard. It's even a game with my kids! Making choices for better health is empowering to me. My company, MIS, opened up a new health and wellness division a year ago, and it became even more exciting when they added toxic-free products a few months later. I was also very inspired when I heard Linda Chae speak on the harmful chemicals in our products and what we can do about them at a conference in Great Falls, MT, where I live. On that day, I realized my mission is also to speak out for a Toxic Free America. As consumers, we have the right to know the truth! Do you really know what's in your shampoo, hand soap, skin care products, toothpaste, etc? I'm passionate about educating people about the truth of what we're exposed to. I believe that the faster people drop damaging chemicals from their lives, the quicker their asthma, allergies, alzheimer's, chronic fatigue syndrome, migraines, infertility problems, etc. will also diminish. We as a society are being poisoned and we don't even know it! Now my daughter doesn't mind getting laughed at in school for not using the triclosan hand soap, and my two year old son decided he didn't want jelly beans for Easter, 'because they have dyes in them'. I'm really glad that from this day forward, we have the knowledge to create a toxic free home and enjoy the journey of sharing it with others.

Hi, my name is "Sue". I am relatively new to the world of toxic-free living but, the important thing is, I am learning more each day and I hope you will too. Just a little bit about why I'm involved with this. I am very fair-skinned and have always tried to get a tan - not smart! You got it, I ended up with skin cancer. I discovered a wonderful product, a monster mud type lotion, that is made from glacier silt, literally extracted from a 10,000 year old lake bed. This product has improved the rough texture and inflammation of my skin by 100%. Also, my daughter was sneezing profusely while taking her daily shower. I had her try a toxic free shampoo, one with no chemicals of any kind -- she now is able to shower comfortably without sneezing! Since learning about the benefits of a chemical free home, I've plunged into choosing a healthy way of life which has brought me here, to you, sharing my experience and knowledge.  Inger Lise Dahl
I live in Montana with my husband and two children. I was born and raised in Norway. For me living Toxic Free means taking care of myself and my family. I have been looking for alternative skin care products for babies since my son is allergic. I used to trust everything from my general grocery store. I thought that if anything was marketed for babies, it would be safe. As I started to learn about the toxins our everyday products, I was shocked to find out that the products I was using and my baby products all had harmful ingredients. I became involved in the toxic free mission not only by using these products but also by making it my source of income. In this business I have taken back my time. I work from home and can enjoy the freedom of setting up my days so that I can spend time with my family, have two hours lunches if I want to. Sleep in one day or just take a day off if I want to go skiing. I also enjoy teamwork, which I now have with fantastic colleagues all over the country. I can work as much as I want to, but it is so much easier to put in more hours now because I have a passion and a mission for what I am doing. I want to share everything I have learned and help others become toxic free and have a successful business. We're happy to answer any questions personally.
