Essential Oils
What Are Essential Oils?
Essential oils are concentrated, purified extracts distilled from plants. Usually, essential oils contain the core characteristics of the part of the plant from which they were extracted, therefore containing distinctive nutrients, scents and chemical properties. Essential oils may be retrieved from flowers, roots, seeds or leaves, and their properties vary accordingly.
Throughout most of the human existence, essential oils have been used for various purposes: From enhancing beauty and maintain hygiene, through deterring hazardous insects and animals, to promoting healing of the body through skin contact or digestion.

Why I Use doTERRA Essential Oils
I began using essential oils in cooking to deal with gluten intolerance and several food sensitivities. I decided to commit to clean eating and eliminating processed foods. Fresh herbs never seemed to last long enough, while dry herbs were mostly flavorless and some even contained gluten, so essential oils fit right into my specific needs.
doTERRA is based in the USA and is an industry-leading manufacturer of essential oils, currently leading the research on the benefits of oils and promoting high quality standards across the wellness industry. After experimenting with many different brands, I have found that doTERRA’s products are of the highest quality and therefore can be used safely and effectively for a wide range of purposes. doTERRA’s essential oils can even be used in food and beverages.
