Marty,
 
Thank you for your inquiry.
 
Our NON-GMO product does not have SLS.
 
Go here for our new AD http://honeybhealthy.com/AD.jpg
 
 
See attached current label with ingredient list not showing Sodium Laurel Sulfate.
 
Where did you see a NON-GMO labeled HBH with SLS on the ingredient list? There are still some earlier HBH productions that have SLS on the label sold by dealers.
 
Honey-B-Healthy is still the same product with the Lecithin we use being tested and Certified NO-GMO along with other strict certification required by our manufacturer who is FDA-Registered. All of the ingredients we use are Certified.
 
The SLS that we did use in earlier productions was made from Coconut Oil. I believe there is a synthetic grade used in industrial cleaners, soaps, detergents and etc. The reason we used it was it helped stabilize the product by helping the oils stay in suspension. Our new FDA-Registered manufacturer uses a special high grade Lecithin that contains enough emulsifiers for oil suspension. Therefore we no longer need the SLS.
 

All of our dealers as yet do not have the SLS Free NON-GMO HBH, so check before you buy.

 

SLS is made from fatty alcohols from coconut oil: Go here for more:

Is SLS really that bad:

I hope this answers your question.

Hi
I was hoping Bob or someone could help me understand your "new" ingredient list. Your new label touts "non-gmo" lecithin..thats is great!
BUT i was at a shop that had your product...it had on there that you also put in laurel sodium sulfate! 

Is that still being used in your "NEW" HBH products?? I have always used HBH til this past spring when i found that out. That is a binding agent that SOAP companies use...isn't it!?? IF so...how is that healthy to bees??

I need to know as i want to buy your HBH peoduct, but i will not w/ L.S.S in it.

thanks!
