dōTERRA®
SOURCING ESSENTIAL OILS
Potency starts with the plant itself. The same species of plant when grown in
different environments will vary in chemical composition.
When plants are grown in
optimal soil, temperature,
and climate, they produce
a higher quality essential
oil—just as nature intended.
But, that’s only half of the equation. Purity plays a major
role as well. Many essential oils available to purchase are not
certified pure. Often, they contain fillers or other elements
that dilute and alter the purity. This diminishes the healthful
qualities of the oil.
dōTERRA is committed to providing the purest, most potent
essential oils possible. We employ a global network of farmers
who know intimately the process of growing plants for essential oils.
They ensure the plant is taken care of properly and harvested
at the proper stage.
dōTERRA has also perfectly melded modern
advances and testing procedures to ensure the purity and efficacy of each essential
oil. Every dōTERRA essential oil is put through the highest standard of rigorous and
thorough testing.
When an essential oil is deemed worthy to be sold as a
dōTERRA essential oil, you’ll know that it has the highest
quantity of active, beneficial constituents and that it is
free of contaminants and adulterations.
This testing protocol—CPTG
Certified Pure Therapeutic
Grade®—sets the bar for quality,
purity, efficacy, and consistency.
Because, at dōTERRA, we know that the same care and
attention—as well as the same commitment—to only
provide the very best is not unique to us; they’re the same qualities you employ
when taking care of those you love the most.
