Re: Essential oil
NOW, Aura Cacia, Mountain Rose Herb, Native American Nutritionals and some other brands I can't remember the name of at the moment all have both Organic and conventionally produced essential oils to choose from. DoTerra and Young Living are shady as hell. They are not organic at all and they have trademarked their respective terms for grading their own oils. DoTerra's trademark is "Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade". It's a completely made up term, like Nike's "Just Do It!" No one else can even use the term or they would be sued. Do some google searches for "DoTerra controversy" or "Young Living vs DoTerra". Very shady business practices the both of them, but then one was born from the other so we can't really expect them to be much different from each other, no matter how hard they try to distance themselves.
Look, I really don't care if you're trying to sell oils here or not, but the CZ public deserves transparency and the truth. Everyone that is here is sick and looking for answers and that makes them easy prey. I'm just imparting the knowledge I learned from the research I did and all I'm trying to tell everyone else is to do the same: Research. If at the end of the day they decide the MLM brands are right for them, then so be it. They're expensive and I see no reason to spend that much, especially considering that there are other organic brands for a fraction of the cost that are just as good if not better.
