Guest guest Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Hi Colleen - We use EOs almost exclusively for our first aid, healthcare, and general health needs. One rule of thumb - if on the bottle you read " do not take internally " or something like that, DON'T. It means that the maker of that oil uses things in the oil that are unsafe. It is not pure at that point and I wouldn't expect it to produce the amazing results that a pure (therapeutic grade) oil will. That said, we use Young Living oils. In order to purchase from them, you have to sign up as a customer, so it's not like going to Amazon.com and ordering essential oils. If you or your cousin's friend don't have a distributor to sign up under (it's a free sign-up), please feel free to use my personal YL number: 1176543. You would plug this number in when signing up at: http://youngliving.com/en_US/abundance/become-member.html . There will be a box that you need to put the number in - don't worry, it's easy to find and use. Of course, there are other options as well - becoming a distributor yourself in order to buy the oils at a discount. If you're interested in that, please feel free to email off-list, b/c that's not the purpose of Marilyn's kefir list. If you have questions, likewise, shoot them in my direction. We've been EO-happy since 9/2010 and I'm happy to share what I've learned. Grace, Sue Wife to Mark Mama to n (10) ~A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves. - R.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Colleen, I use Young Living essential oils exclusively because they are " therapeutic " grade, meaning they will truly give you results. Some people use essential oils only for their aroma. My teenage daughter uses one of their blends for menstrual cramps; we all use the oils for almost any ailment we have. I have a Desk Reference Book that tells you what oil to use for specific purposes. I also use the oils for household cleaning and disenfecting (I do not buy anything from the grocery store any more). You have two choices on how to order: 1) You can sign up as a Distributor which gives you wholesale prices on oils you order for yourself. 2) You can sign up as a Preferred Customer which give you lower than retail, but a little higher than wholesale prices. You would go to: https://www.youngliving.com/signup/custType.faces Choose either " Distributor " or " Customer " Insert my Distributor number (952941) in the " Enroller " and " Sponsor " blocks for Distributor, or in the " Sponsor " block for just a Preferred Customer. Of course, if you want to enroll under a different distributor that you may already know, you can do that as well. If you don't use a distributor number, the company will randomly assign you one. Please send all questions relating to the oils off-list to my personal e-mail: sherre_vacek (at) or if you want me to walk you through the process, or answer any questions you may have, my number is 281-574-4857.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 I buy mine from Butterfly Express, http://butterflyexpress.net/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=SFNT & Store_Code=BE I love their oils. They are 100% therapeutic grade oils. They have webinars you can take online to learn about the oils and how to use them which also comes with a book all about essential oils. Essential oils are amazing! They can clear up congestion and stop a cough much quicker and more effective than any cold medicines. They have a blend for everything. I have used them for cold/flu, nausea, constipation, diarrhea, stomach aches, pulled ligaments and muscles, pain, pms. And many more things I can't think of right now.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 I don't know about a forum. I have purchased organic herbs from www.mountainroseherbs.com and they have excellent products and their prices seem to be reasonable and they have a huge selection that I don't see in health food stores. Al O.T. Anyone use Essential Oils and where do you buy them? Hi Everyone Has anyone on this site used Essentials Oils? My cousin's friend wants to start using them, and has asked me where she may buy them. So I thought that you would be the best people to ask. If you could list any of the places where you buy them I would really appreciate it or tell me the Internet sites where you have purchased them. They live in Great Falls Montana. Do you know of any forums that you may belong to that others can share their experiences with? Thank you very much! Colleen Walsh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Colleen, I get most of mine from Mt. Rose Herbs. They carry a wonderful variety of herbs and oils; many are organic too. http://www.mountainroseherbs.com/ Jeanette Texas > Has anyone on this site used Essentials Oils?
