Why Made in America Products Are More Important Than Ever Before

“The huge supply chain issue is why products made in America are more important now than ever before. “

Dependence on cheap and low-quality products from China for so long has put America in a vulnerable situation economically.

Dateline: March 9th, 2022/Creve Coeur, MO. USA/Written by: Jeffrey L. Klump

When I was a kid I remember watching T.V. commercials almost always promoting American-made products, and not just automobiles.

As I got older, the mood was changing in this country especially in the ’80s when everything was all about Japan and the fine workmanship of Japanese products.

American manufacturing was in many cases connected with labor unions and even in the ’80s, unions were tied to corruption and organized crime.

At least in the movies and on the news, it was.

As time went on in the 1990s, more Americans than ever were focused on buying products as cheaply as possible regardless of where they were made and what the quality of the products they were.

Cheap, cheap, cheap was in. American-made was either out or I don’t care.

A country like the United States can only run a trade deficit for so long before it catches up with you regarding employment and standard of living.

The two events that sealed the fate of the United States and will forever keep a trade deficit were NAFTA & GATT.

These were actually two treaties that were called something else so it did not need a 3/4 majority of votes to pass in the Senate and House.

The big multinational corporations were behind the passing of these two trade treaties because of cheap labor and increasing the bottom line.

The hell with leaving the United States vulnerable and dependent on countries like China to survive.

It’s always about the money.

The United States is now in a weakened state because of the trade war that Donald Trump started with our largest trading partner and because of Covid.

Supply chains…Supply chains… Supply chains.

The huge supply chain issue is why products made in America are more important now than ever before.

Never before have Americans witnessed supply chain problems and shortages as we have over the past 2 years, and it will only get worse.

The American people need to be focused on what made our country great 50 years ago, and that was a strong manufacturing sector.

It wasn’t just the two faulty and fraudulent trade agreements NAFTA and GATT that put us in a vulnerable situation economically, but also the environmental movement which killed millions of jobs in the timber, coal, and oil & gas business.

The only way to get back to where we were 50 years ago is by buying American.

This is a website that lists many American companies that make products made in the USA. This site lists the name of the company including the type of products, and what industry they are in.

Take a look here 👉 https://www.americanmademan.com/made-in-usa-list/

Many of these companies I never heard of mainly because they do little or no advertising.

Much of it is by word of mouth or on free social media platforms.

You have to remember that American manufacturers are at an extreme disadvantage thanks to NAFTA and GATT, which by the way, were passed overwhelmingly by democrats and republicans.

American manufacturers have to compete with slave labor in China, Vietnam, and many other southeast Asian countries.

In other words, they must keep advertising costs low in order to compete.

One American manufacturer that has been around for more than 30 years that relies principally on word-of-mouth advertising is a company called Melaleuca.

Melaleuca is a shopping club like Sams, Costco, and Walmart, but all of its products are made in the USA.

For just $19.00 a year, you as a member can purchase American-made products at wholesale prices.

Melaleuca has over 400 products ranging from supplements, health & wellness products, all-natural disinfectants, and much more.

They also have a way for their members to earn rewards points and a special program for members to earn monthly residual & passive income, full or part-time.

Melaleuca is just one of many great American manufacturers that can offer our country and its citizens a way to be less and less dependent on countries like China.

Why shop at Costco, Sams, or Walmart when you have companies like Melaleuca?

Most of the inventory from the “big-box” retailers is from China or Vietnam.

The longer our trade deficit continues, the more problems with employment and securing our standard of living, we will have to endure.

Remember, if you buy American, most of the supply chain issues will go away.

This is one way of being patriotic regardless of what political affiliation you are from.

Being dependent on another country for your basic necessities is not economic security. It is economic suicide.

Now is the time for the American people to pay attention to where their stuff is being made and produced.

Remember the old saying, “buy cheap, you get cheap”.

Buy American-made!

How To Protect Your Immune System From The Onslaught of Chronic Fear

Tips That You Can Use Right Now To Strengthen Your Immune System

Dateline: Creve Coeur, MO. USA 12/15/20

By: Jeffrey L. Klump

Our planet is in a constant state of “fear”. You hear it continually like a broken record on national and local media. Social media is no different. It is as if there is nothing else going on in the world other than Covid 19. The fear pornographers are out in force and are trying to create reality for you based upon their own narrative.

Don’t let them!

Chronic fear can have long-term effects on your emotional, mental, and physical health.

Your emotional health is intricately linked to your immune system.  Your immune system is a collection of billions of cells, and some target organs that have the primary job of keeping you healthy and fighting off disease.  Your immune system cells travel throughout your body and defend it against antigens, such as viruses.  Unrelenting cortisol, your primary stress hormone, suppresses your immune system by reducing the number of its virus-fighting cells.  

Some of the best ways to reduce your cortisol levels are drinking black tea and taking an incredible herb called Ashwagandha Root Extract. Both of these bring down your cortisol levels and have a relaxative effect on the brain. Prolonged high cortisol levels is consistent with weight gain, low testosterone levels, diabetes, heart disease, and many other health issues. Ashwagandha Root is also great for adrenal gland burn out.

To make matters worse, ‘low-grade cortisol baths’ seem to be the biggest immune system culprit of all.  These ‘baths’ are smaller influxes of cortisol all day long, primarily due to a stress dominated thought process.  It is estimated that we have 60,000-80,000 thoughts a day, primarily repetitive, and primarily negative.  When added to the concept that your brain, in many ways, doesn’t know the difference between what you vividly imagine (or worry about) and what is real, you can see the damage your panic may be wreaking on your risk of contracting a circulating virus

The number one way to strengthen not only your immune system but also your mental health is from high intensity cardio and weight training. High intensity cardio for me is getting on an Eliptical and going no more than 20 minutes doing intermittent sprinting. Winds sprints are one of the best ways to burn fat. Walking or running on a tread mill for more than ten minutes is not only bad for your knees, but, does nothing to burn fat. Take a look at the body of a sprinter compared to that of a long distance runner. You can see that the sprinter has nothing but muscle on their frame and the long distance runner looks like a malnourished child in the 3rd world. High intensity weight training by far, exceeds everything when it comes to turbo charging your immune system. The older you get, the more weight training you need. Why? When we age, our bones become weaker, and we need to pack on more muscle to support those bones. The most efficient way to pack on muscle is high intensity weight training. Some may have their own definition of high intensity weight training, but for me, it is using weights in a slow, controlled manner and pushing yourself to failure with a short rest period in between each set. This helps me burn fat and also increase my metabolic rate. High intensity weight training is also the number one way to increase your testosterone levels which is key to overall good health especially for men over 40. These types of exercises also increase your serotonin levels which is important for healthy moods and brain function. If you are concerned about Covid 19, this is the absolute best way to combat that virus or any other disease.

Another way to help you cope with fear and panic is doing deep breathing exercises. I like doing these exercises when I am on the floor with my legs straight up next to my bed. Since most people sit all day, the blood flow is being cut off to your lower body. By raising your legs while on your back, straight up, the blood flow is coming back into your upper body and this is great for your heart as well your lower body. It also helps tremendously if you have any sort of back problems. Try doing this at least once a day for 10 to 15 minutes and doing your deep breathing exercises while in that position.

Finally, if Covid 19 has you down, even though the death rate is less than .05 percent, here are a few more great ideas for you.

  1. Vitamin D Is the Key to Good Health – Covid 19, aka, “the Rona”, is a virus developed in a lab designed to mimic the flu and is a targeted virus. Who are the targets? The targets are those with low levels of Vitamin D. This is why very few young people are getting the Rona since they typically have high levels of Vitamin D. Regardless, the reason people get sick more in the winter time is? Because we have less sunlight. And you know what sunlight gives us? Yep! Vitamin D. You need to supplement with Vitamin D3 especially if you are over 40 and in particular during the winter months. Don’t be afraid to jack up your amounts of D3 to 40,000IU’s especially if you have the Rona or something worse like cancer.
  2. Liposomal C – Use as much as you want. This type of vitamin C is without a doubt, the most absorbable C out there. Go nuts with C!
  3. Become a CHAGA Gangster – Chaga mushrooms are freaking awesome. There were reports that both China and Russia were stock piling CHAGA back in March. These mushrooms are not only good if you have the Rona, or don’t want to get it, but they are also incredible for anyone that has cancer. These are not your typical mushrooms. Unless you get them in powdered form or supplements, they are very hard. They are not meant to be chewed. Steam hot water and pour over them in a tea cup and also add some black tea and you have a one-two punch combination.
  4. Brahmi Powder – This herb is one that I have been taking because of a series of strokes that I had in 2019. This is another awesome herb! It is great for anyone who is suffering from Post Traumatic Stress, Grief, Depression, High Anxiety, or all of the above. Brahmi aids in brain repair, is a memory enhancer, and studies have shown that it also helps people with Autism. Brahmi is rich in antioxidants, amino acids, magnesium, and potassium. It is also considered an anti-anxiety herb.

These are tips that you can use right now to help you deal with all of the chronic fear being pushed upon us all on a daily basis.

These tips are the true way to good mental, emotional, and physical health and unlike Big Pharma drugs and vaccines, No Side Effects.

Everything You Need to Know On How To Keep Your Home Germ Free

How to safely disinfect your home without expensive cleaners.

News headlines are still full of articles and information on the CoronaVirus(Covid 19). It seems as if this is the only virus out there that people need to be informed about.

Any type of virus, like Corona, which is an upper respiratory illness, can be serious especially if it involves the lungs.

Keeping your home or office free of germs should be important to anyone who doesn’t want to be sick.

Time is not only money, but it is also something you only have a finite amount of during any given day. Who wants to be spending that finite resource in bed with a cold, the flu, or something else, like Coronavirus.

Job layoffs continue across America. Isn’t it time that you were serious about creating another source of income?

So, one of the first things that you can do at home is when you come in from the outside, is to put your shoes in a cardboard box near the door where you came in from. That is something very simple you can do to prevent the spread of germs in your home. Remember, your shoes are on all outside surfaces including in grocery stores, gas stations, and public restrooms. It would be also a good idea to clean the top and bottom of your shoes at least twice a week with some natural botanical household cleaners that we will discuss later.

Your kitchen and bathrooms are by far the two places that will have the most germs because of what we do in those places. An exterminator told me once that bugs, including German roaches, ride into your home and in particular your kitchen, from the grocery store. They can attach themselves to your clothing or shopping bags and most people do not even notice them. Bugs contain germs and are most often found in these two rooms.

The Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) has a list of household cleaners that they say can kill Coronavirus.

One of those products is Pine Sol. Pine Sol has been around a long time. Interesting, however, is that the EPA, on the same site that they approve Pine Sol as a destroyer of Coronavirus, also state that Toluene, which is contained in Pine Sol, is harmful to the human body, including if you inhale it.

You want your family to live in a safe environment. Stop spending money on harmful household cleaners and disinfectants. You want a disinfectant that contains thymol. Thymol is derived from the herb Thyme.  

___________________________________________________________________________

Toluene is a solvent and neurotoxin. It is used as a gasoline additive and is also used in making paint and paint thinners. Toluene is also a known carcinogen.

Pine Sol and cleaners like it, also contain, ammonium chloride. Ammonium chloride has several side effects including headache, shortness of breath, nausea, and cough, just to name of few.

Then there is bleach. Another household cleaner that many of us grew up on.

Many people are of the mindset that bleach is safe. Bleach is very irritating and corrosive to the skin, lungs, and eyes. As well, it has been known to burn human tissue internally or externally.  On top of this- it may cause skin rash, extreme headaches, migraines, muscle weakness, abdominal discomfort, esophageal perforation, nausea and vomiting. In addition, it can damage the nervous system. People that have a respiratory problem should avoid the use of bleach because it can worsen especially people suffering from asthma and allergies.

Coronavirus is an upper respiratory virus which also affects the lungs, so using a household cleaner with bleach, will only make matters worse, if in fact, you have the virus. Other symptoms may occur such as stinging sensation in the eyes and nose, coughing and breath shortness. Bleach fumes can accumulate and linger in poorly-ventilated homes. Indoor air becomes polluted with toxins, endangering the health of all those who breathe it in.

The EPA has also listed, earlier this year, household cleaners that contain Thymol.

Thymol is getting a lot of attention for different reasons. What is thymol? Thymol is an ingredient derived from the herb Thyme, which most people have heard of if they do any sort of cooking. It is also a component of the botanical essential thyme oil.

Thymol is an anti microbial, anti fungal, anti mycotic, anti inflammatory, and also an anti oxidant.

In 2007, a study was done in Croatia to find out the affects of thymol and essential thyme oil against molds from damp places. Here are the findings from that study. Essential thyme oil possesses a wide range spectrum of fungicidal activity. The vaporous phase of the oil exhibited long lasting suppressive activity on molds in damp dwellings. They went on to say that thymol was three times as strong as the essential oil of thyme in its fungicidal activity. Their final conclusion was that both thymol and essential thyme oil can be used for disinfection of moldy walls in dwellings and in low concentration.

A study in 2016 was conducted in the treatment of a cough in upper respiratory infections like Coronavirus using thymol, essential thyme oil and primrose oil. The conclusion of the study was that the natural extracts from these herbs were comparable to the synthetic drug Ambroxol and no side effects with these natural herbs.

So, does it make any sense to use the household cleaners that have been around for decades that we now know has these harmful chemicals and possibly more? Call me crazy but, if the directions on Pine Sol and Bleach tell you to wear a mask and gloves, why would you be cleaning your homes with it?

There are other inexpensive alternatives. For under $20.00 you can purchase a household cleaner that contains Thymol. The one that I have used for over 2 years is

Sol U Guard from Melaleuca. Sol U Guard also contains citric acid which is also anti microbial and anti fungal. Sol U Guard just happens to be one of the best selling products for Melaleuca because of the Coronavirus.

Everything you need to know on how to keep your home germ free doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive.

Germs will always be here and germs aren’t necessarily a bad thing. Like comedian George Carlin once said, your immune system needs to germs to practice on. That’s true.

It doesn’t however, make much sense in buying the cheaper household cleaners like Pine Sol or Bleach to detoxify your home, when in fact, it will be doing just the opposite.
