Thieves Oil
Almond, wheat Germ, Grape Seed extract and Jojoba oil can be used as carrier oils. The best which has a longer shelf life would be the Jojoba oil, all others would last approximately 6mths.
My first batch was made with Almond oil which is the one that I prefer it has a watery substance as opposed to the wheat germ. The longest shelf life would be the jojoba which is approximately 2yrs, I was planning on giving mine all away so didn't think I needed something that lasted too long. We have to bear in mind that there are people who are allergic to peanuts so caution must be taken and given.
Now I must stress that you not change the recipe by a tsp or tbsp or add any other oil you might think would work.
You will need 1 cup of carrier oil such as Almond, wheat germ, seed extract or jojoba.
1 tablespoon of Clove Bud oil
Make sure its bud oil and not simply the clove.
1 tablespoon of Lemon Oil
2 teaspoon of Rosemary Oil
2 teaspoon of Eucalyptus Oil
I read somewhere on a blog where a doctor was recommending this to his patients but his patients thought he was a fool to ask them to go out and purchase all these ingredients more the fool to them they don't know what they are missing, this is the BEST CURE of all that I've ever encountered, I've made 2 batches of this oil and given it out without charge, given it out as a gift of health to all the good feelings, rewards, the thanks, the hugs I've received for giving this oil was worth a million dollars. It's time we give instead of being greedy all the time.
These essential oils may create an unfriendly environment for bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. This proprietary blend was university tested and found to kill over 99% of bacteria it comes into contact with and to be highly effective in supporting the Immune System and Good Health.
The Chinese say that our feet is like our second heart, in our feet we have receptors or veins that lead to almost every organ in our body. Knowing this I always apply the oil to the sole of my feet where the arch is, I only add two little drops of this oil to both my feet and within minutes I feel the effects of it.
Approximate cost will be in the 50-75 dollars but it will be the best use of your money, you'll be buying yourself the best remedy of all times and you'll have enough to share with your friends and family, a tbsp (15ml) is going for $42.00 USD this information I got from the last site I visited. This is outrageous for people to be making money off of our health. For myself It has helped with arthritis, heel spurs although I work in an environment where I could easily catch the virus or flu (Pharmacy) I can honestly say that I've been blessed with good health, this oil and also knowing the importance of taking Vitamin D3, I've not been ill once this year Thank God.
Merry Christmas and Good Health for the coming year.

My post is based on the D.Stewart (DS) book “The chemistry of essential oils (EO)made simple. God's love manifests in molecules”.
What everyone needs to know.
#1 SOURCE
A therapeutic grade EO should be from a proper botanical genus, species, and cultivar. No chemical fertilizers are added to the soil, and crop cultivation is free of herbicides and pesticides. EO should be extracted by steam distillation at minimum temp. and pressures, as it was done in ancient times. No chemical solvents are to be used in the extraction process.
#2 DISTILLATION
Distillation must be done using low-pressure, low-temperature steam for the proper length of time to ensure that a complete essential oil is extracted, and that there is no significant loss or exclusion of lighter fractions or heavier fractions. Distillation, condensation, and separation should be performed in vessels constructed of relatively inert materials.
#3 MINIMUM STANDARDS
The chemical profile of the principal constituents in the oil must fall within the parameters of certain minimum standards such as those of ANFOR ( a French Agency). The ISO in Geneva, Switzerland. There are also European Commission standards which also corresponds to ANFOR.
There are NO standards for therapeutic grade essential oils set by any government agency in North America.
At this time, there is only one North American company that sends samples to Europe to ascertain compliance with EC-ANFOR-ISO standards for EO.
#4 Limitations of ANFOR standards
ANFOR standards are only for a minimum profile of compounds and concentrations that must be present in an oil before it can be labeled as such and such a species.
Complete, natural oils are mixtures of hundreds of compounds, but ANFOR-ISO standard focuses only on a few ingredients, usually less than six.
As an example, for an oil to be called “Peppermint Oil” (Mentha piperita) by ANFOR standards it must contain 35-45% mentol, 10-20% menthone, 4-9% methyl acetate, and 3-7% 1.8 cineole. But these are only 4 compounds of hundreds present in a complete, natural oil. An unethical company could synthesize this four compounds, mix them in these proportions with a suitable filler oil and it would pass the ANFOR test.
#4. BEYOND ANFAR standards
The healing properties of an oil also have to do with the way it was grown, harvested, distilled, and packaged. TGEO should be bottled as it comes from the still, with none of its natural constituents removed and with nothing added. The container and its lid, or a seal, must be non-reactive, air tight, and a shield from light, such ad bottles of brown, amber, or blue glass.
95% of essential oils produced for flavor and fragrance and do not fulfill therapeutic standards.
Natural Wintergreen oil is virtually non-existent.
#5 DELIBERATE FRAUD
To be sure you're getting TGEO, you need to know your grower, your distiller, your packager, and your distributor because anywhere along this chain of delivery, oils can be compromised.
A common practice is ti take a decent grade of EO and dilute it 90% to 95% with an odorless, colorless solvent so that what was a pound of good oil becomes ten or twenty pounds of diluted oil to be sold as if it were the original substance. Such diluted oils often carry labels saying “genuine”, or 100% pure” which is allowed by FDA.
#6 FRANKINCENSE OIL
When you see a bottle of fluid labeled Frankincense oil for $10-20 for a fluid ounce, you can be sure it has been diluted because you can't gather the resins from the Arabian and Somalian deserts, transport them to France or England to be distilled, and then import them to North America (or any other country) for that price and maintain quality and purity.
Mysteriosly, for every pound ofFrankincense distilled in the world, more than a dozen pounds are eventually sold.
Pure unadulterated frankincense should cost around $140 per once (2010 prices). In Biblical times, a pound of frankincense oil was more precious than a pond of gold. (Today Edens Garden sells “pure” frankincense oil in 1kg bottles for $1,200)
DS: “I have tested several brands of anointing oils labeled as frankincense and or myrrh sold at Christian bookstores and have not found a single one that is true. When only the common names( Frankincense and Myrrh) are used and the latin names are missing from the label, that a clear warning that the contents are probably not genuine, and certainly not therapeutic”.
Fact: No essential oil has ever been completely analyzed to reveal its every constituent. EOs are do complex, it may never be possible to discover everything that is in even one of them.
Fact: Rose oil is (so far) the most expensive of all oils and had the highest electromagnetic frequency (320 MHz). Thousands of pounds of petals are required to distill even one pound of precious oil.
There are three requirements for an oil to cause an allergic reaction.
That person must have been previously exposed to that oil
That person must have developed antibodies for that particular oil
There must be s hypersensitive reaction upon subsequent exposure to that oil
Pure distilled TGEOs are free from allergens. With few exceptions, alkergens are proteins or polypeptides, both of which are composed of amino acids. Distilled Essential oils contain no proteins, polypeptides, or amino acids, thus contain no potential allergens. In fact, one can be allergic to a particular plant, like fennel ir geranium, but have no allergy to the essential oil distilled from that plant since the volatile oil contains none of the plants proteins or amino acids that are the source of allergic reactions to the plant. An oil pressed (vs.distilled) from seeds or cold expressed from rinds can be alkergenic.

Essential Oils for MRSA and TB
I read something fascinating in a newsletter I received. There have been studies that have found a combination of tea tree and eucalyptus essential oils to have healed MRSA and also TB. I have read about some essential oils working on MRSA, but never on TB. Apparently, in one study, when the compound of the oils was sprayed on tuberculosis cultures, the TB was wiped out in 40 minutes. The Dr studying this was amazed, because no antibiotic can do that.
I suppose if I had TB, one of the first things I would do would be to use an essential oil nebulizer to diffuse tea tree and eycalyptus into the air (to get it to the lungs. ) I am sure there are other natural things that would help, and I know this website has lots of things people have used to cure MRSA. It is just great to have more things to try. Always when treating something serious, I would try and obtain the highest quality essential oils possible.
Just thought I would share what I learned and my 2 cents on it!
Have a great day!

Overall she is a fairly healthy woman using home remedies all her life. Lately she was diagnosed with high blood pressure and under investigation about cause(s) for this. She has seen her GP the day after she took these drops and her blood pressure had shot up by 10 points. She refuses to discuss this occurence with her GP, not only feeling stupid but also not wanting to give reason for essential oils to be prohibited. She was OK with me contacting you people and see if something could be done to minimise short/long term damage. She complains of burning feel in esophagus, earache with some crackling noises, persistent 'bronchial type' of cough bringing up lots of phlegm. Any suggestion welcome.
Ylang Ylang Oil
Ylang ylang for high blood pressure is a new one for me!
But in doing some checking around I find that is something that it is used for. It does sound like it is more likely to be helpful if the high blood pressure is caused by stress. But ylang ylang has a good safety profile (even considered safe for pregnancy and breastfeeding) and seems like it would be worth a try. A couple of side effects to watch out for would be nausea or headache, and possibly skin irritation if used topically.
I will tuck this remedy away for the future; it is something I would consider for myself if needed. If you try it, let us know what you think!
Love,

Essential Oil Tips
★★★★★
40 drops CLOVE e.o. - 35 drops LEMON e.o. - 20 drops CINNAMON BUD e.o. - 15 drops EUCALYPTUS e.o. - 10 drops ROSEMARY e.o.
I decided to fraction what I mixed and it turned out pretty well; I didn't use a carrier oil - just added a drop or two to a little coconut oil.
Also, I felt like I was coming down with a cold yesterday so decided to simmer a pan of water on the stove, to which I added several drops of "my Thieves Oil" - if it's mind over matter, I don't care! Maybe I was just overtired after having my grandson for an overnight....I feel better today and that can't be a bad thing. : -) I also have been taking 1/2 teaspoon of 500 ppm Colloidal Silver for a couple months (daily during the week, then my schedule gets thrown to the wind on the weekends) and have been able to avoid the viruses that are rampant this winter. I had nothin' to lose by trying this and I've gained so much!

WARNING!
Essential oils are polyphenols, which are estrogens, and many of us are estrogen-dominant anyway. Likely as a result of my over use of essential oils in the past I have had the experience of remedies that work great for other people actually working backwards on me! It has made my case a real challenge for my nutritionist. And the only people he's worked with who react the same way I do are people who have used a lot of essential oils. There is a reason why nature puts only a tiny amount of essential oil in one plant or flower, because essential oils are very powerful substances and we really no so little about them.
Essential oils are also unsaturated fats. Saturated fats are the best for you, things like coconut oil, butter, palm oil and olive oil.
And one of the side effects of a poorly functioning thyroid, as well as estrogen dominance, is thinning of the hair.
Best of luck as you research your health.

That said, I do use Now oils for everyday things with good results.
But for specific needs when I want a really excellent oil I use Hopewell. Their sciatica blend is great. And their peppermint oil is amazing.

Essential Oil Patch
Burns
★★★★★
Instead of accepting conventional, medical treatment, she started using an organic, unadulterated collection of essential oils. (PLEASE be sure the essential oils you choose are unadulterated.)
She topically applied lavender, sacred frankincense, sandalwood, helichrysum, myrrh, and an ointment blend that contains Mink oil, lecithin, beeswax, lanolin, sesame seed oil, rosewood, wheat germ oil, palmarosa, geranium, patchouli, balsam fir (Idaho), myrrh, carrot seed oil, Melaleuca alternifoila, and rose hip seed oil.
By day 4, the blister was gone, but she still had a red blotch on her hand. By day 8, you could see the oils' healing effects. By day 35, you couldn't even tell it had been burned. It looked as normal as it ever did.
With these kinds of burns, you would treat it with (unadulterated) essential oils as frequently as you need, in order to avoid pain and to begin the healing process. After the pain subsides, you may choose to use the oils as frequently or as infrequently as you wish. A reasonable recommendation would be to begin treatment 4-5 times per hour in the first few hours of the accident. If you have the oils on hand (ESPECIALLY lavender), and if you immediately apply the lavender on your burn, you should be able to avoid great pain and further consequences.
I keep a bottle of lavender in my collection of essential oils at all times. It is a great adaptogen to practically every first-aid need.
Again, I cannot stress it enough, PLEASE USE ONLY UNADULTERATED, ESSENTIAL OILS.

She has never taken a liking to soft drinks. In the last 15 years she gradually gained almost 20kg mostly around belly. In spite of minimal use of prescribed drugs and minimal sugar intake, tests show that she has candida and we wonder how that can be. Also her blood pressure is far too high ranging from 149/78 to 178/82, needless to say that her GP wants her on medication which she is not in favour of. She just wants to know what is causing her hbp and recently agreed to blood test to begin finding out. We also would like her to get hair analysis done to identify mineral deficiencies and she has agreed. Not until we have this information can we determine how best to help her. Blessings of health and wellbeing to all of you and thanks for sharing your experiences, ideas, suggestions and feedback.

Thieves Oil
I just wanted to let you know the origin of the name.
Essential oils are remarquable and can cure so many ailments. Every household should learn about them and at least carry some basic ones from pure source.
I am glad this oil is still excellent today as it was over 500 years ago. We think our 'scientists' today know better but back then, people knew a lot more. It is time we all revert to learn to take care of our own ailments so I welcome the sharing of information such as this.
Au revoir.
Essential Oil Patch
★★★★★
on my upper chest, near my armpit. (I awoke calm & relaxed, unusual, forgetting that I had it on)I purchased it at a local health store.
Question: Since the product is too expensive, I was wondering if anyone has any home recipes or methods for applying essential oils to skin. The oils in this patch were Bergamot, Ginger, Lavender and a carrier. A patch seems more effective then just rubbing it on.
EC, perhaps an essential oil section? thanks!
Essential Oil Patch
However I found rubbing on the soles of my feet and rubbing on chest just above armpits was effective. As effective as the patch? Hard to say.. the patches run about $15 for a tin of 10...I will use both methods in the future.

The thieves oil has also allowed me to sleep far more comfortably and for longer periods over the last few nights - couldn't be happier with these results. Thanks for sharing.
General Feedback
Are people not talking about? Do you not consider it a natural remedy? Do you feel it's covered well enough on other websites? Do you only stick to things commonly found in many people's homes? If so, then what about the supplements? Sorry for all the questions, just my nature to ask them. I'm simply very curious to know why I don't see anything about them since (good) essential oils are 100% natural and so effective for many of the ailments listed.
What are your thoughts? Thanks for your time.
