Re: [Everything doTERRA] Oils

I also had the same question when I learned about DoTerra - how do I know they are #1.  I checked out a few others who had therapeutic essential oils and all but 1 website said not to use them internally ever.  I knew from what I learned at DoTerra that what that meant is they were not pure (certified pure).  I also had someone come in my shop and I sell some of our DoTerra ols here, they said do you have something live Young Living Theives and I said yes - it's OnGuard.  She was surprised because she said her mother was an employee of Young Living and was secretly using DoTerra oils and her mother didn't know about OnGuard (I'm sure she does now) but I asked why her mother would use DoTerra oils and not Young Living - she said "because my mother said that DoTerra's are more pure".  That was enough for me!

 Angeline,
 I haven't ever been associated with another essential oil company like many 
 others, but I did have some oils I had purchased from 3 different companies.
 
 It only took one smell of doTERRA's Lavender and I knew there was a 
 significant difference!  But, it never hurts to do your own research.
 
 So, I did a little research on the company of 'Primavera' you mentioned (I 
 had never heard of it)
 I personally found it interesting - they recommend that you never use their 
 oils without a carrier of some kind - never internally - and it looks like 
 they use chemical solvents to extract some for fragrance purposes.  I don't 
 know much about the scientific stuff.  I see that they use a lot of organic 
 products and it looks as though they are very careful to use good things in 
 their other products that are 'organic' - but NO where in their web-site 
 does it say ANYTHING about PURE oils - or how they are tested to ensure 
 purity.   Interesting!
 
 This is what they state on their web site:
 
 From Primavera Web Site:
 "....The heart of every Primavera product, essential oils have been used for
 
 thousands of years for their natural healing and nourishing benefits. Along 
 with pure essential oils, the other plant-based ingredients that form the 
 foundation of Primavera are seed oils, base oils and plant extracts. Each 
 product is hand-blended to create the most effective formulas possible.
 
 ...Referring to the method of extraction, absolutes are very intense scents 
 created when a plant's essential oil cannot be gathered through steam 
 distillation. Often used for Jasmine, Tuberose, Mimosa and other precious 
 flowers, the essential oil is extracted through a process that involves 
 chemical solvents. They are very potent and only 1 - 2 drops are needed to 
 blend with 50 ml base oil.
 
 ...Also don't use them in high concentrations or take internally without the
 
 explicit advice of a health practitioner"
 
 Just FYI
