upporting every system of the body, essential oils and essential oil-infused supplements can provide the targeted solutions you need to restore balance and feel your best. I’m excited to share my passion of alternative health and wellness with you because it is has been so empowering to be able to take back the health of not just me, but the health of my family. Essential oils and essential oil infused supplements help antioxidant support in our body. Toxins and harmful chemicals can hide in everything from the food you eat to the water you drink. Worse yet, they can accumulate in your body, causing feelings of lethargy and preventing you from absorbing critical nutrients. And, there’s more to aging well than exercise and having a good diet. As we age, our bodies take on more and more damage from cell-wrecking free radicals, making us look and feel older. Many essential oils are rich in antioxidants compounds that combat free radicals and Young Living is proud to offer unique formulas that are designed to help antioxidant support. No matter your specific wellness goals or the physical setbacks you experience, cutting-edge formulations of essential oils and other natural, wellness-supporting ingredients are ideal for transforming the way you feel every day. Essential oils are steam distilled or pressed from plants – from the leaves, roots, bark, stems, rinds or seeds. They are much more concentrated, and therefore, more potent than dried herbs. 1 drop of peppermint oil is the same as 26 cups of peppermint tea! 1 drop of lemon oil is the same as 16 lemon rinds! They are the lifeblood of the plant that initiates regeneration into the cells. They enhance the immune system of plants, and they work the same for humans. Anything that our blood does for us is what the essential oils do for the plant –
They can effectively combat the damaging effects of toxins, impurities and harmful substances in and around our bodies. How exactly do they work in the body to promote wellness? Essential oils can quickly pe*****te the tissues of the skin, and from there diffuse throughout the body in the blood and tissues. One drop of EO’s contains 40 million trillion molecules. Which means that the molecules are very small and they can affect the body at the cellular level by penetrating the cell wall to repair damage and boost the immune system. The molecular structure of some oils are so small and contain high amounts of sesquiterpenes, which is a chemical constituent in pure essential oils, that they can even cross the blood-brain barrier (Lemon, Cedarwood, Vetiver), making essential oils powerful to deal with issues of the brain. EO’s work synergistically WITH the body to help it heal itself because they are recognized by the body as nutrients, unlike synthetic chemicals which the body recognizes as foreign substances. Quick History Lesson – essential oils, even though trendy, are nothing new! In fact, they are the oldest form of medicine, dating back to 4,500 BC! They were used in religious rituals and to treat illnesses. They were used in China, India, Greek & Roman empires, and found in ancient scriptures from the Bible, Torah and Koran. In fact, in the Bible, there are over 200 references to aromatics, incense and ointments referring to Frankincense, myrrh, cinnamon, cassia, rosemary, hyssop and spikenard which were used for anointing and healing the sick. In 1922 when King Tut’s tomb was discovered, there were 50 jars in his tomb that could hold 350 liters of oil, all of which had been stolen but the gold had not been! The robbers literally chose the oils over the gold, showing how valuable they were at the time. The ancient Egyptians were masters of using essential oils. Many hieroglyphics on the walls of Egyptian temples depict the blending of oils and describe numerous oil recipes. Daily applications of essential oils in biblical times were extensive. 36 of the 39 books of the Old Testament and 10 of the 27 books of the New Testament mention essential oils or the plants that produce them. There are over 10,000 references to essential oils in the National Library of Medicine pubmed.org
