I haven't really researched other companies - and maybe I will do more -
just so I have the info. I think that it is difficult because no matter
what - you're going to have every company make the statement that theirs are
the "Best". If I was an official "scientist", I could test them all myself
and find out that way - but I don't have that designation after my name - so
instead I have to rely on good ole' fashioned 'scientific' testing with my
"MOM" designation! :-)
So, here's what I've found so far....
-I've cleared up diper-rash on a friends son
-I've gotten everyone in my family over the 'flu' in 2-4 days - without
seeing an official "doctor"
-I haven't had to get a prescription for tamiflu, antibiotic, or other
medication since I joined in July
-I was able to take care of my son who got strep throat from a friend - by
using oils only
-I have made my house smell extremely good - and I can actually breathe
after (usually had problems with other ways of making my home smell good) -
and in the meantime, have hopefully killed airborne bacteria...
-Kept myself from getting a sore throat- overnight
-My son hasn't had his yearly "fall asthma" attack and subsequent cold
(which usually included a trip to the Urgent Care facility to get breathing
treatments)
-Been able to treat my hip with Deep Blue so I can sleep at night (It may be
bursitis of the hip and gets inflamed sometimes - but the pain goes away
within 5 minutes of putting on Deep Blue
-I have used the Past Tense to get over several headaches
-I've been able to help my daughter who has anxiety issues using Balance,
Serenity, and other things
-Helped my 8 yr. old son when he had an exercise induced asthma attack -
and instead of asking for his albuterol inhaler - he asked for 'oils' - so I
put Breathe on his chest and within one minute he was breathing normal again
-Been taking Lemon and Peppermint in my water every morning - and have been
much more "regular" - (gross, I know, but.....)
-Helped my 14yr old eliminate the pain when she hurt her shoulder playing
Volleyball this season
-Used Digestzen when I got food-poisoning. Woke up in the middle of the
night thinking I was going to die! "Poured" it over my stomach - put a
couple of drops under my tongue and did it twice, and was back to sleep
within 30-40 minutes.
-Bonded with my children every night as I put oils on them
So....that's my 'scientific'/"Dr. Mom" results. I guess for me, that's
enough proof - for now. And, I didn't even include the stories from my
friends who have been using the oils!
I hope you are able to have the same successes!
Love,
Brooke Magleby

Hey Brooke!
Do you have any of your other helpful findings through your research
on other oil companies? I often get asked this same question.... "why
dottera?" and would love any other helpful facts to share with those
who ask.
THANKS! :)
