[Everything doTERRA] Re: LLV with various prescriptions that state do not drink or eat grapefruit? Reactions & education

Good answer, and after reading some of the information from this list I definitely agree with you and Tracy.  My son's allergist told us that people can be allergic to literally anything--no matter how 'pure.'  So why not doTERRA?  Although I'm sure it's unlikely to react with many or even most meds, according to the evidence presented in earlier posts, it can.  Due to this I have begun telling people this very thing, you need to check with your doctor if uncertain, just because 1000 people in a similar situation have used something with great results doesn't mean that the next person will!  I happen to think that doTERRA is wonderful, like-changing as we've read here and heard other places, but anything that powerful needs to be treated seriously in my very lay-person opinion! ;-)

Best of luck with your father, Marie.  I hope you can find something that works for him.

I so agree with you tracy.

I also endeavor to get people to educate themselves. They need to pay attention to their bodies. I try to build their confidence in doterra and then they choose to use the products based on that. Someone can have a reaction to anything. And there are some that react to grapefruit oil regarding their meds for whatever reason. I have seen it on this very message board.  There are no guarantees...at least in my opinion.

Your dad is on a ton of meds which is very sad to me. It i is always sad to me that you have to be on medication that makes you have to question a piece of fruit.  But to be positive, he can be working on so many things if he is the type that won't educate. I hate to say it and I'm being stereotypical...dads aren't the first n line to want to educate themselves. Does he wanna read online, look at testimonials, research, etc.  I don't know but he could try lemon in his water or use oils in other ways that don't have anything to do with grapefruit but at the same time it can build his faith in the oils and products. Then he is ready to try other things and its based on a foundation HE has built with doterra. Not because you guaranteed him something that u really can't.
