and perfumes.
•Next are food grade essential oils. These are used to
flavor foods like lemon in salad dressings or cinnamon
chewing gum.
•The next grade, intended for a health bene?t, is therapeutic grade. This has held the standard in the essential
oil industry for the last 30 years. These are the oils that
are found in health food stores and used in the health
industry. These oils have served well but now things are
even better
One company named DoTERRA has established a new
standard in essential oils called Certified Pure Therapeutic
Grade (or CPTG).
DoTERRA set this standard by demanding the highest
quality in all aspects of growing, processing, and distributing essential oils. DoTERRA is committed to obtaining
oils from the original source. They buy oils from growers
that they select, train and monitor from all over the
world. For example, Lavender comes from France and
Frankincense comes directly from Oman. After the oils
are obtained, they are processed in the manner best suited to that plant. Then they undergo third party testing in
two independent labs to certify each batch of oil is pure.
There are no synthetics, impurities or chemicals. If a
batch does not meet this high standard, it does not make
its way into bottles.
3 WAYS TO APPLY ESSENTIAL OILS
The first and fastest way is aromatically. Just take a whiff!
The oils start working immediately. They kill germs in the
air, open airways and affect mood. These life-changing
oils can be diffused into the air, sniffed straight from the
bottle, or applied to the skin.

The second type of application is topical. The oils can be
applied to head, feet, ears, chest, back of the neck and
troubled areas. Application on the bottom of the feet enters the blood stream and affects the entire body within
30 seconds.
CPTG oils can be taken internally! These oils can go right
to work from the inside to relieve issues in the digestive
system, mouth, throat and liver. Take under the tongue,
in a gel capsule, in water, or in food.
