Are Essential Oils Powerful?

Modern medicine of the last 50 years is based on these compounds found in nature, however, the synthetic versions that cannot interact with the body in the same way as nature. ​

Doctors Panel
DoTERRA Essential Oils are extracts containing only the volatile aromatic compounds of a plant, the extracts are consistent batch to batch.

The CPTG quality protocol requires the use of independent laboratories for standardisation and testing.
They are a scientific, natural approach to prevention and support. They are the ultimate form of plant power.

"The reason essential oils are so effective is because they are
​made up of a complex mixture of chemical compounds."

How Do They Work?

Antioxidant Values


​USDA researchers in Boston, Massachusetts, have developed a test to measure antioxidant capacity. It's known as the ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity).  

4 drops of clove oil = 2,800 ORAC Value

  • The cellular membrane is composed of lipids.  Because essential oils are lipid soluble and small, they have no problem crossing the membrane and provide benefits directly to the cell.
  • Essential Oils can also influence the brain by passing from the blood into the brain. The blood brain barrier is the most secure tissue barrier in the body. It is highly selective in order to protect the fragile tissues of the central nervous system.  Novel research has demonstrated that certain sesquiterpene constituents found in essential oils can directly cross the blood brain barrier because of their small molecular size.

Fascinated about how the compounds work and want to hear from medical professionals - yes I did too! None of this is too advanced in terms of science talk, if I can get my geek on you can too!
Ask DoTERRA:
  1. Why can you buy pure oils for £5, are they the same?
  2. Why are different frankincense oils used?
  3. Internal Use (15 minutes in)
