What is in your Medicine Cabinet?

Are your products supporting or suppressing you and your family’s health?

Many of the common products found in your medicine cabinet contain petrochemicals and other toxins known to cause serious side effects from nausea and high blood pressure to liver damage and possible forms of cancer.

Review the list below of therapeutic grade essential oils (They must be a therapeutic grade, or they could be adulterated with synthetic chemicals and do not have the therapeutic benefits) for viable natural alternatives that support and boost your body’s immune system as well as aiding it in detoxifying.

Young Living Essential Oils meet ISO and AFNOR International Quality Standards for therapeutic grade essential oils.

Young Living toothpastes, mouthwashes, shampoos, soaps and skin products do not contain any of the toxic ingredients (i.e. propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate, aluminum) found in most of these types of products. They also have the added benefit of having essential oils added to them that support our health. Note: Our skin is the largest organ of our body and is directly affected by the lotions, toothpaste, shampoos and beauty aids that we apply. We do not have to consciously digest these products in order to be affected by them. Products swished in our mouth are absorbed through the capillaries on the inside of our cheeks. Each hair has its own blood vessel that draws in a product’s various ingredients. Many synthetic ingredients remain in our organs and tissue for years and years continually building up over time. Folks, we have the choice to either support or suppress our overall health by the products we choose to use!
