German tests report that there are no traces of aluminum in the water held by the bottles due to the thin liner they use inside the bottle to protect the water from the aluminum as well as bacterial growth. You can read more about the liner and the aluminum here:

You might also want to check out the oh-so-amazing Sigg bottles. The online in-Israel gluten free store that I shop from just started carrying them: http://www.glutenfree.co.il/index.php?main=more...

I bought mine back in the states and carry it everywhere-love it! These can be dropped, unlike glass.

I can only share from my personal experiences. My dad used to bring home hitch-hikers for dinner when I was little and I loved it, however it always caused extreme tension between my mother and father as they were at odds on this topic and I was fully aware of that. A few years ago, when I returned to the states after doing mission work, I had nowhere to live. Two different couples worked together to provide me a room in their homes, meals, transportation and a family that loved me as one of their own. This witness forever changed my life. However, I was 18, female, and returning from a year of mission work abroad. May God grant you wisdom.

Re: Tea Tree Oil: This is How I Use it

Jamie — Tue, 20 Dec 2005 12:59:44 -0000

Don't pay so much! Check out Bramble Berry's site and buy their organic tea trea oil at one oz for $7.54, 4 oz for $20.96, 8 oz for $31.68, or 16 oz for $63.56. My husband and I make and sell handcrafted soap and since we've been in the business we buy all of our oils in bulk and use them for everything. My favorite is the lavender oil. I mix 2 parts jojoba oil, 1 part sweet almond oil and a bit of lavender oil and use it as a body oil after my shower. You could use any essential oil in place of the lavender just fine though.

Re: Surprise!- Whole Foods costs more than Wal-Mart

Unfortunately my husband and I have to live in a new city about every 2 months or so because of his job. Because of this it is difficult for me to hunt out the local (or even find it within a decent drive time of downtown) so I almost always just find the nearest Whole Foods or Wild Oats. We also are vegetarians and try to buy the local food at the stores to help out a bit more. Because of this we are always broke, but we know that the people that produced the food aren't being taken advantage of and are being paid fairly and the we are damaging the earth a bit less then if we bought the cheapest produce on the shelf. When we are back in our home town my husband and I learned how to make handcrafted soap so that we can trade our soap with local farmers. Now we can eat fresh local food that didn't break our wallet, even recently we set up a deal with a local coffee roaster!

I love these products! When I lived in Kyrgyzstan I found these available at the local equivalent of a department store in Karakol. I never could read the ingredients, but seeing as I lived through a winter with a solid month at 40 below and my skin never suffered I was hooked. I looked about a bit once back in the states and never found them and since then I had forgotten all about these until this morning when I read this post. I think I used the sensitive skin line as well as the sun products and makeup.

Yay! It makes me so happy to see Kyrgyzstan make Tree Hugger. This last summer was my third return trip (I've lived there for a total of 14 months) and I spent it studying the Kyrgyz language. They are a very generous and hospitable people and their country is absolutely beautiful.
