MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear Friends, My daughter Ariel is turning 5 soon but it almost feels as if she were turning 15 instead. One of her obsessions is with a TV commercial showing teenage girls swaying their long, shiny locks to advertise a popular shampoo with "natural ingredients". I tell her that her Human Nature shampoo is better than the shampoo on TV and yet she insists "But it's natural, Mommy! When I become a teenager, can you buy me that instead?" We see a lot of products bannering the words "natural" and yet when you read the ingredient label, you still find harmful and irritating synthetic chemicals. A small amount of essential oil or natural extract doesn't make a product natural. Choosing wholesome, nature-derived ingredients and avoiding all the bad ones is what makes a real, all-natural product. Our latest product, the Human Nature All Natural Deodorant, is made with ingredients that are certifiable by the U.S. Natural Products Association (NPA) and certifiable by EcoCert and it doesn't have aluminum salts, propylene glycol, parabens, phthalates - the usual suspects. Lastly, we recently conducted a Dealer Pulse Survey to learn more about our dealers. We discovered that most of our dealers are with us primarily because of their love for natural products. The income-generating opportunities were just secondary motivations for most of them. Thank you for your trust in us! In turn, we promise to strive harder in coming up with even greener and more ethical products that help poor communities and redefine the phrase "Made in the Philippines" to the rest of the world. One with you,

Highlights of Dealer Survey We have just concluded a Nationwide Dealer Pulse Survey and the results show proof that Human Nature Dealers are first-movers, influential in your social networks and are doing important work in building a new culture and awareness of the dangers of chemicals here in the Philippines. Almost 90% of the dealer respondents said they signed up with Human Nature primarily for the love of natural & organic products and because of a strong desire to help the poor & the country! What’s more, close to 95% of respondents enjoyed fulfilment as Human Nature dealers. Plus, Product Quality satisfaction was also very high with more than 92% being satisfied with all products. Almost 75% said you find it easy to sell Human Nature products. Less than 10% of dealers listed money as being your main objective in Human Nature but 54% said you would still prefer improved earning potential. So we are now working hard to find more ways to reward you, financially and in other ways, for the very important work you are doing in teaching your friends, family, colleagues and strangers about the goodness of nature and loving the country, the poor and the environment. These survey results are an affirmation that we are on the right track to providing our consumers and dealers with only the best whilst also showing us there is an opportunity to still aim for 100% satisfaction!

DANGEROUS CHEMICALS 101: Aluminum Salts Body odor is primarily caused by odor-causing bacteria interacting with the body’s sweat. Conventional deodorant brands solve the problem of body odor simply by preventing you from perspiring with the use of aluminum salts. These salts dissolve in sweat and temporarily inhibit perspiration leaving your underarms dry. Unfortunately, these aluminum salts that keep you dry also have serious side effects when absorbed into the skin. Studies have shown that as aluminum salts temporarily close the pores and trap in toxins in the body, they also cause problems in the sweat glands and lymph glands in the underarm area. In fact, aluminum salts have been linked to breast cancer, reproductive system toxicity and neurotoxicity. You don’t have to worry though because Human Nature now offers a natural alternative to combat body odor without trapping in toxins and clogging pores! Together with a host of other natural anti-bacterial ingredients, our Human Nature All-Natural Deodorant also contains Chitosan, a wonder of the sea that’s 100% naturally derived from the shells of sea crustaceans. Chitosan has been clinically proven as an anti-microbial whilst also being an excellent skin moisturizer. As the active ingredient in Human Nature All-Natural Deodorant, Chitosan attacks odor-causing bacteria thus preventing body odor. Plus, zero alcohol in your deodorant means you can enjoy deodorant protection minus the dark pits! So don’t be shy, put your hands up in the air because this is something worth celebrating! Start spreading the word – inform your friends and customers about the dangers of cheap chemicals and ask them to check the labels of the products they currently use. Filipinos deserve better – safe, natural products at affordable prices. OTHER UPDATES Hot Off the Press! Word on Human Nature is spreading like wildfire!

DEALER OF THE MONTH: Mary Ann de Jesus-Dungo 
Mary Ann de Jesus-Dungo is a pre-school teacher and a Human Nature dealer from San Pablo Laguna that definitely has a heart of a warrior and a heart of a shepherd. Currently battling cancer, Mary Ann is depending on God to heal her and is trying to adopt a healthy lifestyle and use natural products. “I believe that God made me carefully and wonderfully and He knows what's the best way to care for every cell in my body. God gives us life to practice healthy living” shares Mary Ann. Careful not to trigger her cancer cells, she is now more conscious about what she eats and what products she uses. Mary Ann signed up as a dealer last March so she could use the products for her personal needs and be able to share them with her family and friends. She truly believes that Human Nature is God-sent and now enjoys the benefits that our products have to offer while sticking to her budget and enjoying the opportunity to share good products with others.
