Hi Diane, I believe 100% Pure has been sold through QVC, however they are not currently selling their products. I am not sure if QVC is just temporarily out of stock or if they are no longer selling the products because 100% pure is still listed as a brand on their website. Hope this answers your questions!
Emma,
Regarding the 100% pure brand..
I believe years ago when they originally started, they were selling their products on QVC. If this is the same company, I purchased several items and really liked them. Anyway you could find out?
That’s a great question! Palm oil is generally produced by cutting down thousands of acres of trees in the Amazon rainforest and extracting it from a certain type of vegetable grown from these trees. There are a few sustainable methods out there, but the majority of palm oil production causes deforestation, loss of wildlife, and several other issues. Palm oil is found in about 50% of packaged products in the US – think food, hair products, you name it, so getting palm oil free products or products that sustainably source palm oil can make a big difference. You can learn more here.
You mention palm oil…maybe there’s a post somewhere that explains it more, but why is palm oil an issue? I’d like to learn.
