Fav Things
Here are my fav things about doTERRA...
doTERRA essential oils are 100% pure, therapeutic grade (CPTG).
Every oil is tested by a third party, not once, but EIGHT differents ways to ensure they are pure and up to quality standards.
doTERRA essential oils are unique in that every oil is harvested in it’s prime environment throughout the world. Their oils comes from every part of the globe.
Their global sourcing model brings jobs to local communities where they are supported with the right equipment, training, equal and on-time pay, and best of all provides a platform to build a global community. One that leans on each other and admires each other’s strengths.
Over the next 10 years doTERRA will play a key role in helping integrate essential oils into western medicine as a preventative supplement to current health practices. This would increase the doTERRA business opportunity and also help more people have access to pure high quality oils.
Their vision for healthcare is to set up training centers all over the US for healthcare professionals. doTERRA does an incredible job of educating the world about the power and benefits of essential oils. I can’t wait help have a hand in this wellness movement!
BUT WAIT, WHAT ARE ESSENTIAL OILS, EXACTLY?
What always blows me away is how highly concentrated the doTERRA oils are. Compared to a dried herb the essential oil version is 100x more concentrated. Wowza, right? It can take thousands of pounds of plant material to produce only one pound of essential oil.
What’s up with all these different essential oil companies? How do I know which is right for me?
This one's simple. Go with the company you trust. I chose doTERRA.
T R U T H Check: Not all essential oils are created equal. Please be aware that there is NO committee or governing body that regulates essential oils. Any purity claims you see on essential oils for sale at stores, are actually just claims made BY the EO company themselves. Hmm...something seems off there, amirite?
doTERRA is the largest essential oil + wellness company in the world with a mission to bring empowered living to every home in the world.
#1) Source to You
doTERRA sources globally and not only that - they work WITH the farmers there to create a better economy. This doesn't matter to everyone - but it did matter to me when I was comparing. Watch the video...
doTERRA has over 100essential oils in its product line and sources its oils from over 40 countries —more than half of which could be considered developing countries. To ensure that small-scale farmers and harvesters in disadvantaged areas are treated ethically, doTERRA has introduced an initiative called Co-Impact Sourcing.
Co-Impact Sourcing is an initiative that seeks to develop long-term, mutually beneficial supplier partnerships while creating sustainable jobs and providing reliable income in underdeveloped areas. doTERRA is committed to the ethical treatment of its suppliers by providing on-time payments at fair prices. Growers and harvesters are encouraged to form cooperative groups to share collective benefits and bargaining power while improving skills and capacity.
When doTERRA looks for sourcing partnerships, we deliberately choose locations where we can improve the individual, social, economic, and environmental well-being, while producing the highest quality essential oils.
Rather than laying down lavender farms all over open random places in the US - we source our lavender from Bulgaria.
Lime from Brazil.
Vetiver from Haiti.
Oregano from Turkey.
Wintergreen from Nepal.
Frankincense from Somalia.
Cardamom from Guatemala.
Douglas Fir from New Zealand.
Lemon and Bergamot from Sicily.
Lemongrass from Southern India.
Tea Tree and Eucalyptus Australia.
Rose and Juniper Berry from Bulgaria.
Ylang Ylang and Ginger from Madagascar.
doTERRA seeks out where in the world plants are indigenously grown and most abundant due to humidity, soil condition, and sustainability practices.
These efforts ensure that as consumers, we’re receiving only the absolute best, purest, product in support of our body. DoTERRA takes each batch of essential oils through rigorous third-party testing to ensure there are no toxins, contaminants or microorganisms present.
This level of purity guarantees there will be no negative side effects or drug interactions. With every batch they carefully exam for herbicides, pesticides, weeds or fillers so that the only thing they guarantee on the market are pure plant wisdom in a bottle. Straight from Mamma Earth, just the way they were intended.
If ever testing doesn’t meet their strict standards, that oil is immediately taken off the market. I don't know about you, but that gives me a lot of confidence in their integrity.
#2) Their commitment to quality CPTG oils
When it comes to the essential oil industry, there is no centralized governing body enforcing essential oil manufacturers to be honest about what they claim their products can do the level of quality. This is why it’s ultra critical to do your research before purchasing oils and first understand how the oils are getting made, where they’re sourcing the ingredients to make the oils, the level of quality and purity, things like that.
doTERRA is a company that has a clear vision of the impact they want to have on the world and they understand wholehearted what they stand for and believe in. With a mission that drives them daily and amazing products to back up every single thing they say, that is how I know I’m with the right company. Watch the video...
doTERRA Healing Hands Foundation and Co-Impact Sourcing®
Co-Impact Sourcing is a responsible method for sourcing doTERRA essential oils. This type of sourcing occurs in areas of the world that can best sustain plants for essential oils and, most importantly, can help elevate communities out of poverty and desperate need. Thanks to the relationships that have been developed in these Co-Impact Sourcing locations, the doTERRA Healing Hands Foundation has been able to establish humanitarian projects that benefit the hard-working community members in these areas.
