I have been a Melaleuca customer since 1995. I have not built a business, just used the products. Why? Because they are fantastic! For instance I had problems with gum disease before I started using the Tooth Polish and mouthwash and that condition cleared up years ago. With the Vitality products I swear I am aging more slowly than my friends and the household cleaning products are superior! I am now going to start on the business aspect because I want to retire in a few years and I can’t think of a better place to accomplish that goal.
