Re: [Everything doTERRA] Research

I know you are not arguing, and I understand where she is coming from and this is what my response would be:

• All doTerra oils are tested by two independent laboratories for purity. We use the Gas Chromatography and the Mass Spectrometry. If there is any minute particles of chemicals or pesticides, or if the oils does not have the proper constituents then they are refused by doTerra. In order to back this up I suggest you contact productservice@doterra.com and ask for research papers, or product information that backs this up.
• Whole foods, along with most health food stores carry essential oils. They specify, "not to be taken internally", right there you know the oil is not pure. According to FDA standards they only have to have 10% real oil in order to qualify as pure or therapeutic.
• doTerra knew that they would have to raise the bar on what they offered to the public in regards to whole pure oils. In order to do this they created a set of standards to follow and when these testing standards are complete and the oil is accepted, it is then know as CPTG (Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade)

I have attached a few items for your perusal. Hope this helps a little more.

I know that what information I can give her, she will go with that and probably do her own research.   What she is asking is doTERRA's research.  How are these oils so much better than everyone else's?  What sets them apart from what you buy at Whole Foods?  And is the research that she does going to show doTERRA as the oil to use?   I know this person very well and I know she would like the oils, as I do.  She just wants information.  If I tell her sorry, you are going to have to do your own research, then she will say to me, why am I having to do my own research?  That is telling me that doTERRA doesn't have any back up for their claims.  So why would I believe what is being told to me if it can't be backed up.   I don't want to sound like I am arguing...I just know this person very well and she would be amazing at the business part of doTERRA.  I would be silly to not have her on my downline.  I just want to be able to provide her with some sort of information.   --- On Wed, 3/30/11, Patricia Leavitt <doterradiscover@gmail.com> wrote: From: Patricia Leavitt <doterradiscover@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [Everything doTERRA] Research To: everythingdoterra@googlegroups.com Date: Wednesday, March 30, 2011, 10:18 AM Let her do her own research!! Even if you put together a lot of information, she would still question it. And, that is fine, she should know exactly what she is getting involved in. There are no side effects to our oils, these are natural from the earth with nothing added. As for having to use them forever, that is the beauty of these oils, they are healing. Tell her for the first time in her life take that leap of faith. These oils are pure and will become a miracle in her life. I know this isn't scientific, but I know what they will do and she can also know this.

She also wanted to know if, say you are using the oils to help you sleep at night, are you going to have to use them every night there after in order to help you get to sleep because your body has become dependent on the oils? This person is HUGE on research, documentation supporting that research.  She's an attorney.  So, not only do I want to be able to answer these questions for her, I would also like to know where to get the information to back up what everyone tells us about the doTERRA oils.
