Beeyoutiful Healthy Living products

Healthy Living for Families:  BeeYouTiful

     Our family is slowly moving toward more natural products in our home:  organic foods, when we can afford them; local foods when they are in season and convenient; natural/homemade cleaning products; health and beauty products that are not full of 20,000 ingredients we can't pronounce.

     We were given the opportunity through the TOS Crew to use and review two of BeeYouTiful's products:  Lip B.A.L.M., and Tummy Tune-Up.

BeeYouTiful's Values ~ What about this company?

Their Values:   "We are believers in Jesus Christ. We strive to act according to what this means to us. We believe in treating others the way we would like to be treated. We strive to quickly and accurately meet every need, answer every question, take every call, and ship every order, without mistake. But we're human. We make mistakes. So we pledge to do our best to make it right.

If anyone ever feels they have not been treated properly they are free to contact me personally."

BeeYouTiful's Goals:

     "At BeeYouTiful.com, we believe that each individual is responsible for their own health. It is not a doctor's responsibility to keep you in good health. Instead they are a tremendous resource, especially for those times when urgent care is required. But, they are only one of many resources. And the tools they use, while powerful, are not the only tools available. But a tool is worthless unless one knows how to use it. We have found a lot a tools that have worked very well for our families, and made Beeyoutiful a repository for those tools, as well as the information to effectively use them. As we learn more, we share more. Our goal is to eventually carry every natural product that we use. We're not there yet. We may never be as we are constantly being exposed to new and great products. As much as is in our power, we want to aid others in obtaining and maintaining good health.

      Our mission is to do good to all men. Please let us know how we're doing!"

What we sampled:

BeeYouTiful All-Natural
Lip Moisturizer B.A.L.M.

I really like the thought of a lip balm that doesn't contain artificial chemicals or petroleum-based chemicals.  Instead, BeeYouTiful's Lip B.A.L.M. only contains the following ingredients: 

• GrapeSeed Oil
• Shea Butter
• Beeswax
• Essential Oils

_     We received the Lip B.A.L.M. in Orange, which was a very nicely, softly scented citrus.  I gave this to Brittany to use for her weekend away at snow camp.  She liked the flavor and scent of the Lip B.A.L.M., but she felt like it wasn't "waxy" enough to stay on as long as she had hoped, before she needed to reapply it.  Other than that, she didn't have any problems with this product.  The Lip B.A.L.M. costs $3.00 per tube, or 3 tubes for $2.70 each.

And . . . we sampled . . .

Tummy Tune-Up (probiotic)

     Tummy Tuneup delivers a blast of 4 billion reinforcements from eight vital strains of friendly bacteria. This knocks stomach bugs -- and the accompanying indigestion and nausea -- out of the fight with the first few Tummy Tuneup capsules. Tummy Tuneup is a pro-biotic (in favor of good bacteria) as opposed to an anti-biotic (against all bacteria.)

     Some pregnant moms find major relief from morning sickness when they take Tummy Tuneup. Especially during the first trimester, a mother's body is trying to detoxify so it can devote all its energy to growing a healthy baby. This is why morning sickness tends to be the most intense during the early months of pregnancy. Much, if not most, of the detoxification works through the intestines, which process and get rid of toxins more efficiently if there are plenty of good bacteria around for the job.

      Tummy Tuneup users also report relief from excessive gas and bloating -- even after eating common offenders like beans and cabbage. Also: before you consent to taking irritable bowel prescription medicines (which do have unwanted side effects), try putting yourself on a Tummy Tuneup regimen for awhile.

What we thought:

     We've had an interesting autumn and winter working with stomach bugs.  This is unlike any other school year we've ever experienced!  I started a medication a few months ago, and one of the side effects is to have stomach/intestinal problems, which I've had from time to time.  So, I decided to be the guinea pig for Tummy Tuneup. 

     I have to be honest and say that I didn't notice an improvement in my stomach/intestinal health, even after taking Tummy Tuneup for several weeks.  But it may be that even with Tummy Tuneup and drinking raw milk filled with great probiotic organisms, it just wasn't enough to compensate for the medication that I'm taking.  I'm going to keep giving this a try and see if things do improve, despite the medication.  I think it is an excellent product, but it may just not be able to help me as much as I'd like.  Possibly, nothing will!
