What is an Essential Oil?Plants contain complex and powerful

substances known as essential oils. These are aromatic liquids derived from shrubs, flowers, trees, roots, bushes, and seeds.

These distinctive components defend plants from insects, harsh environmental conditions, and disease. They are also vital for a plant to grow, live, evolve, and adapt to its surroundings.

Referred to as the essence of the plant, pure EOs not only protect the plant but also determine its aroma.

Essential Oils Used Through the Ages

Essential oil use dates back to 4500 BC.

From perfumes and aromatherapy to cooking and medicinal purposes, EOs have been part of everyday life for centuries.

Today’s research shows that pure EOs can provide similar benefits to humans and animals that they give to plants.

What is the meaning of “Therapeutic Grade” Oils? Oils that have the highest naturally-

occurring blend of constituents to maximize the desired effect.

Although each oil has different constituents, what separates them from other oils are their terpenes, which are any of various unsaturated hydrocarbons.

How They Heal: Phenylpropanoids: Create conditions that are

unfriendly to bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Most importantly, they clean the receptor sites on our cells so that our cells can communicate (our hormonal system depends entirely upon clear communication throughout the body)

Monoterpenes: Can reprogram miswritten information in your DNA.

Sesquiterpenes: Deliver oxygen to your tissues. Cancer, viruses, and bacteria cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Monoterpenes reprogram the misinformation in your DNA, sesquiterpenes erase the misinformation.

Summary: Valuable Properties of Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils:1. Create an environment detrimental to

pathogens (viruses, bacteria, etc).2. Create an environment of clear

communication between cells and body systems.

3. Erase (deprogram) cell misinformation.4. Reprogram misinformation in our cells so

they function and replicate properly.5. There are the emotional and spiritual

properties of these healing oils that only you can experience for yourself.
