What is an Essential Oil?

• Plants contain complex and powerful substances
  known as essential oils. These are aromatic
  liquids derived from shrubs, flowers, trees,
  roots, bushes, and seeds.
• These distinctive components defend plants from
  insects, harsh environmental conditions, and
  disease. They are also vital for a plant to grow,
  live, evolve, and adapt to its surroundings.
• Referred to as the essence of the plant, pure EOs
  not only protect the plant but also determine its
  aroma.

3
Essential Oils Used Through the Ages

• Essential oil use dates back to 4500 BC.
• From perfumes and aromatherapy to cooking and
  medicinal purposes, EOs have been part of
  everyday life for centuries.
• Todays research shows that pure EOs can provide
  similar benefits to humans and animals that they
  give to plants.

4
What is the meaning of Therapeutic Grade Oils?

• Oils that have the highest naturally-occurring
  blend of constituents to maximize the desired
  effect.
• Although each oil has different constituents,
  what separates them from other oils are their
  terpenes, which are any of various unsaturated
  hydrocarbons.

5
How They Heal

• Phenylpropanoids Create conditions that are
  unfriendly to bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Most
  importantly, they clean the receptor sites on our
  cells so that our cells can communicate (our
  hormonal system depends entirely upon clear
  communication throughout the body)
• Monoterpenes Can reprogram miswritten
  information in your DNA.
• Sesquiterpenes Deliver oxygen to your tissues.
  Cancer, viruses, and bacteria cannot thrive in an
  oxygenated environment. Monoterpenes reprogram
  the misinformation in your DNA, sesquiterpenes
  erase the misinformation.

Grade Essential Oils

  (viruses, bacteria, etc).

  between cells and body systems.

  milk.

  honey and swallow.
• 5. Drop directly onto or under the tongue and

  spoon and tasting to determine how much should be
  used.
