Update on soap berries, teleseminars and writing opportunities for NewsTarget Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

First, let's start with the soap berries project: We have received requests for more than 3,000 kilos of soap berries from NewsTarget readers (this is the natural laundry detergent replacement that grows on trees). Right now, we're asking 3 different companies to quote us their best price for delivering those 3,000 kilos to our fulfillment center near Phoenix, Arizona. Once we have the final quotation numbers, we will select the best deal and get things moving.

Half a million loads of laundry will now be chemical free thanks to availability of eco-friendly "soap nuts" laundry detergent Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

A previously-published article on NewsTarget describes these soap nuts (also called "soap berries") in more detail: http://www.newstarget.com/021875.html Soap nuts replace all commercial laundry detergents with a 100% natural laundry soap grown by Mother Nature. They contain absolutely no synthetic chemicals or additives, and they're sustainably harvested in countries like Indonesia, India and Taiwan. The soap contained in the shell of the soap berry is highly concentrated: Just two or three soap nut shells cleans an entire load of laundry.

A new alternative has appeared, however: soap berries! It's laundry soap that grows on trees. We offer it at www.BetterLifeGoods.com 14. Flame retardant chemicals Did you know that new mattresses for infants and children are often sprayed with extremely toxic flame retardant chemicals? These are easily absorbed through the skin of infants and children where they contribute to numerous neurological disorders and immune suppression. Many clothing products are also sprayed with flame retardants, as are some carpeting products.

Natural soap berry laundry detergent co-op buying opportunity announced at NewsTarget.com Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

We'll buy the soap berries up front and import them, then make them available for fulfillment from the U.S. (or other countries, too, depending on demand). We'll pass the cost savings through to NewsTarget readers, and we'll all get the best pricing possible on this environmentally-friendly natural cleaning product. (We estimate the final cost to consumers will be $30 per kilo, which is less than half the current retail pricing on such products.) The actual final cost may vary from this, however. We won't know until we do the deal.

NOTE: Your email to us is not a legally-binding reservation of soap berries. If you actually want to reserve a large amount up front and guarantee availability, you'll need to call us and arrange for a down payment. (Call 520-232-9300.) What we're trying to do here is get an estimate of the total reader demand for this product so we can order enough to go around. But because this is all just an estimate, we could end up with too much or too little product. We'll keep you posted on the outcome of this co-op purchasing action and let you know what steps we're taking to acquire the product.

Once we acquire the best price, we will front the money to buy this shipment of soap berries and have it brought to our fulfillment center near Phoenix, Arizona (or, shipped to other continents depending on demand, see below...). From there, we will offer the product through www.BetterLifeGoods.com at the best price we can manage. (We will need to have some markup in order to cover the up-front cash requirements, shipping, customs clearance, fulfillment costs, storage costs and other logistics overhead, but the bottom line savings to everyone will be tremendous.) The bottom line?

We received a lot of feedback about the soap berries. Readers were thrilled to find a natural soap product that worked so well and yet contained no synthetic chemicals or toxic fragrance additives. But we also received complaints about the price of the product. It was just too expensive, people told us, and they wanted something that was more competitive with the popular laundry detergents sold in stores. They were also concerned about the large amount of packaging used with the soap nuts, and they wanted something more eco-friendly that doesn't use such expensive packaging with color printing.

This is not actually a reservation; it's just an email survey of how many kilos of soap berries our readers might want. 2) Your first and last name. 3) The city, state and country in which you live. The estimated price to you (see below) will be around $30 per kilo, which is less than half the current retail price of similar products. The final price may actually be lower, but we won't know until we approach the producers and calculate the total costs. You do not have to actually commit to buying what you want to reserve, nor do you have to place an order right now.

One kilogram of soap berries can clean from 100 - 150 loads of laundry. If we take the middle ground on this and assume it can clean 125 loads of laundry, the cost comes to 24 cents per load of laundry. That's actually LESS than many of the name-brand chemical laundry detergents. So this is a price point that should make sense to everyone: Not only do you pay no more for this natural detergent, but you also save the environment from toxic chemicals, reduce the poisoning of your own family from laundry chemicals and reduce the use of wasteful packaging.

New research shows vitamin D slashes risk of cancers by 77 percent; cancer industry refuses to support cancer prevention Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

I refuse to use chemical laundry detergent and, instead, use natural laundry soap that grows on trees: Natural soap berries that we sell as a replacement for chemical laundry detergents. Corporate-controlled U.S. government doesn't want to prevent cancer The U.S. government doesn't want the population to be free of cancer. That's a strong statement, so let me offer you an undeniable piece of strong evidence to back that up: The artificially low RDA numbers for vitamin D.
