The doTERRA difference!

Why choose doTERRA? There are so many brands of essential oils on the market today, how do you know which ones are the best and which ones aren't worth the money?

There are four kinds of essential oils on the market today.

1. Synthetic- This makes up the largest portion of the EO market includes perfumes and other industrial uses.

2. Food- These are oils that the FDA has said are pure enough to consume. You can usually find them in the baking isle.

3. Therapeutic- Therapeutic grade are oils that are safe to run on your skin. This makes up even a smaller part of the market than food grade. To be certified as therapeutic grade the oils have to go though testing to make sure they contain a high enough percent of the essential oil.

doTERRA's founders thought that wasn't good enough. Just because a therapeutic grade Lavender oil contains only Lavender doesn't mean that it wasn't grown in a hot house, or sprayed with pesticides or picked before it's prime. Thus a new standard of oil was created.

4. Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade (CPTG)- This is a brand new standard. Every batch of oils are put through rigorous testing -by outside labs, not by doTERRA- to ensure that they are 100% pure and free of weeds, pesticides, parfumes, synthetic materials etc. doTERRA also makes sure that all plants are harvested where they grown indigenous in the peak of their season when all of them plants compounds are at their prime. CPTG is the highest, most pure form of essential oil on the market.

doTERRA's oils are:

PURE - 100% natural, no artificial ingredients, fragrances, or fillers
SAFE - Certified to be free of pesticides and other chemical residues
POTENT - Standardized active compounds

Now you know why to choose doTERRA......now, why use essential oils in the first place? 

What is great about essential oils versus modern medicine is that they are far more compatible with our make-up. For example – essential oils are able to pass through the cell membrane wall to stop viruses in their tracks. There are no man made medicines that are able to do that. When you get a viral infection the doctor tells you that it just has to run it's course. When you have a bacterial infection, the medicine they give you kills all the bacteria in your body -good and bad- whereas essential oils will target only the harmful bacteria and leave the bacteria your body needs to function properly. Would you like to improve your health without all the nasty side effects of prescription medicines? Who wouldn't?
