Melaleuca Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Melaleuca sponsor the Melaleuca Freedom Celebration?

Since his childhood, Melaleuca founder and executive chairman Frank VanderSloot has always loved Fourth of July fireworks.

Since 1992, the Melaleuca Freedom Celebration has been a heartfelt tribute to America’s heroes and a commemoration of the principles of liberty.

Are Melaleuca products natural?

For more than three decades, Melaleuca has used nature to power its health and wellness products.
In most cases, natural ingredients are the safest and most effective. But natural doesn’t always mean safe or effective. Many man-made compounds have been proven to be safer or more effective than raw, volatile natural sources. Only in those proven cases does Melaleuca use those less natural alternatives.

Melaleuca relies on innovative scientific research to amplify and identify the uses and benefits of naturally based ingredients. By doing this, Melaleuca ensures that its products can outperform national brands, whether those competing products are found online or in retail stores.

Melaleuca spends millions of dollars annually to look for the best ingredients and determine the safest and most effective forms of those ingredients. Melaleuca scientists also ensure that they’re using the optimal extraction processes to create extracts, minerals, enzymes, essential oils, and other natural compounds to protect the environment and optimize health for its customers.

Nature is in everything that Melaleuca does. The company is careful to use only proven, safe, and trusted ingredients. Using science, Melaleuca puts nature to work.

What countries does Melaleuca do business in?

Melaleuca operates in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Poland, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Australia, and New Zealand.
