Internally.....
Okay, I am not going to talk a lot about internal use of essential oils. As I have already mentioned, you should only be using Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade Oils to begin with. In addition to that, most of doTERRA's CPTG oils have been approved of as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) for internal use. This means that you can cook with them and you can also safely take them as nutritional supplements. The doTERRA bottles have labeling on them that give directions for safe use. NEVER take an essential oil internally that has not been recognized as GRAS by the FDA. This is very, very important as anything less is not approved for internal consumption and can be harmful.
doTERRA has several nutritional supplements available for internal use. There are the Long Life Vitality Supplements that are excellent for vitamins, minerals and is designed to help with pain and inflammation. There is the "Cellular Complex" product as well (among several other products). Both of these contain particular chosen essential oils for your health and wellness.
Many people love the taste of a drop of lemon essential oil in their water. I know that I drink it every single day! It has been noted to be good for detoxification and balancing the body's PH level. Delicious!
doTERRA's "Metabolic Blend" is excellent for balancing the metabolism in the body making it a great choice for appetite control and it also helps with detoxification as well.
Oregano, Thyme, Basil, and Wild Orange oils are some of the favorites (out of many) for adding to your favorite recipe. And we're talking one drop or less for incredible flavor!
How about adding a drop of Peppermint oil to your cup of hot tea? Yum!!!!
You get the idea!
***Please note: There are advocates against using essential oils internally and only under the supervision of a doctor who works with this type of natural care. I use lemon, peppermint and the metabolic blend in my own water, and I have nothing against using them in culinary ways, but it is up to each one of you to do your research and decided what you feel is the best way to go with internal use. The verdict is out on this one way or another at this time. I would suggest using in moderation. However, please know that using the oils diluted on your feet will give the same benefits as using the oils in a veggie cap and swallowed. ***
