Do Essential Oils Really Work?

As  you might expect from any fitness & nutrition coach, I’m pretty passionate about my health! When I started focusing on my overall health a few years ago, I realized how anything I put in my body or on my skin could either help or hurt me. The more I learned, the more I realized how many chemicals & toxins I was exposed to every day!

So I decided to make a change and start using more natural options.

For me, I actually started with my makeup choices – I put that on my face every day, so I figured that would have a pretty big impact. From there, I slowly looked at other areas of my life: my skin care, bath products, & supplements. I didn’t change everything at once – and I still have things that could be improved. I make small changes, because I know that’s what leads to long-term results.

When I heard about essential oils, I was very skeptical. It literally sounds like “snake oil”, right? But after I tried an oil blend to support my sleep, I couldn’t deny there was something to it.

So I did my research to learn more about what they were and how they worked. And I learned they have been around for thousands of years! Before we had the medicines available today, people used the oils extracted from plants to support their health.

As I researched, I learned there are a lot of different oils available with different levels of purity & potency. It’s an unregulated industry, so it’s important to choose a company you trust in order to get the full benefits of each oil. That’s one of the reasons I chose doTERRA for our family, as their testing practices are unmatched. There is a growing body of research on essential oils, including ongoing research and partnerships with world-renown medical facilities (like John Hopkins University). You can find more research and reference materials through NAHA.
