Acknowledgments
When D. Gary Young brought back 13 essential oils from Europe in 1985, virtually no written
information was available about their usage and application. The essential oils that were sold in a few
heath food and novelty stores were perfume grade
with no suggested therapeutic usage.
This opened the door and led the way to a new
and exciting frontier that propelled Gary into the
research of an ancient knowledge that had been lost
to the synthetic production of perfumes and food
flavorings. His work began a resurgence of healing
modalities from our of the dust of history. He was
ridiculed and laughed at for his ideas about therapeutic usage, even though the medical world was
beginning to awaken in Europe.
He has spent decades conducting clinical research on the ability of essential oils to combat
disease and improve health. He has also developed new methods of application from which
thousands of people have benefited, especially his
integration of therapeutic-grade essential oils with
dietary supplements and personal care products.
In our research, we have found no evidence of
anyone formulating these types of quality products with essential oils in North America prior to
those formulated by Gary Young.
Gary grew up learning to love and work the
land as a farmer and rancher in Idaho, which made
it easy for him to see the vision of developing his
own farms. That vision soon became reality as he

ful. However, it is difficult to find this knowledge taught in universities or private seminars.
Chemistry books are difficult to understand for
most people, and they don't usually address the
specific chemistry of essential oils. There is very
little institutional information, knowledge, and
training on essential oils and the scientific approach to their usage.
The F;uropean communities have tight controls and standards concerning botanical extracts
and who may administer them. Only practitioners with proper training and certification can
practice in the discipline called "aromatherapy."
In the United States, regulatory agencies have
not recognized these disciplines or mandated the
type and degree of training required to distribute and use essential oils. This means that in the
United States, individuals can call themselves
"aromatherapists" after attending brief classes in
essential oils and can apply oils to anyone-even
though the so-called "a romatherapists" may not
have the experience or training to properly understand and use essential oils. This may not
only undermine and damage the credibility of
the entire discipline of aromatherapy, but it can
be dangerous to the patient.
Essential oils are not simple substances. Each
oil is a complex structure of hundreds of different chemicals. A single essential oil may contain anywhere from 80 to 300 or more different chemical constituents. An essential oil like
lavender is very complex with many of its constituents occurring in minute quantities-but
all contributing to the oil's therapeutic effects to
some degree. To understand these constituents
and their functions requires years of study.
Even though an essential oil may be labeled as "basil" and have the botanical name
Ocimum basilicum, it can have widely different
therapeutic actions, depending on its chemistry.
For example, basil high in linalool or fenchol
is primarily used for its antiseptic properties.
to 1500 BC. The scroll included over 800 different herbal prescriptions and remedies. Other
scrolls described a high success rate in treating
81 different diseases. Many of the remedies contained myrrh a nd honey. Myrrh is still recognized
for its ability to help with infections of the skin
and throat and to regenerate skin tissue. Because
of its effectiveness in preventing bacterial growth,
myrrh was also used for embalming.
The physicians of Ion ia, Atria, and Crete,
ancient civilizations based on islands of the
Med iterranea n Sea, came to the cities of the Ni le
to increase their knowledge. At th is time, the
school of Cos was founded and was attended by
Hippocrates (460-377 BC), whom the G reeks,
with perhaps some exaggerat ion, named the
"Father of Medicine."
The Romans purified t heir temples and politica l buildings by diffusing essential oils and also
used aromatics in their steam baths to invigorate
themselves and ward off disease.
Early History
of Essential Oil Extraction
Ancient cultures found that aromatic essences or oils could be extrac ted from the pl ant by a
va riety of methods . One of the oldest and crudest forms of extraction was known as enfleurage . Raw plant material such as stems, foliage,
bark, or roots was crushed and mixed with olive
oil , an imal fat, and some vegetable oil s. Cedar
bark was stripped from the trunk and branches,
ground into a powder, soaked with ol ive oil, and
placed in a wool cloth. The cloth was then heated. The heat pulled the essential oil out of the
bark particles into t he olive oil, and the wool was
pressed to extract t he essential oil. Sa ndalwood
oil was also extracted in t his fashion .
E nfleurage was also used to extract essential
oils from flower petals. In fact, the French word
en Aeurage mea ns literally "to satu rate w ith the
perfume of Aowers ." For example, petals from
roses or jasmin e were placed in goose or goat fat.
The essential oil droplets were pulled from the
Upper Egypt
The Rediscovery
The reintroduction of essential oils into modern medicine first began during the late 19'h and
early 20'h centuries.
During World War I, the use of aromatic
essences in civilian and military hospitals became widespread. One physician in France, Dr.
Monciere, used essential oils extensively for t heir
antibacterial and wound-healing properties and
developed severa l kinds of aromatic ointments.
Rene-Maurice Gattefosse, PhD, a French cosmetic chemist, is widely regarded as the fat her
Essential oils may assume an increasingly important role in combating new mutations of bacteria, viruses, and fungi . More and more researchers
are undertaking serious clinical studies on the use
of essential oils to combat these types of diseases.
Research conducted at Weber State
University in cooperation with D . Gary You ng,
as well as other documented research, indicates
that most viruses, fungi, and bacteria cannot li ve
in the presence of most essential oils, especia lly
those high in phenols, carvacrol, thymol, and
terpenes. It may also help us understand why a
notorious group of thieves, reputed to be spice
traders and perfumers, was protected from the
Black Plague as they robbed the bodies of the
dead and dying during the 15th century.
A vast body of anecdotal evidence (testimonials) suggests that those who use essential oils
are less li kely to co ntract infectious diseases.
Moreover, oil users who do contract an infectious illness tend to recover faster t han those
using antibiotics.
O ur modern world has on ly begun the discovery of the power of God 's healing oi ls something that the ancient world knew well.
Their time was one without laboratories, manufacturing faci lities, high tech nology and equipment, or chem icals. lbe earth and its healing
gifts were the ancient world's medicine-something our modern wo rld should take note of
and embrace. Modern medicine is certa inly not
without its miracles. M illions of lives have been
saved in crisis and malfunctions of the body. But
the way to live with strength and vitality without
pain and disease lies in what God has created,
not in what man has altered.
Essential oils are no longer the missing link
in modern medicine. Millions of people are applauding their power, and millions more are being introduced and educated to th eir potential
each year. As more and more health practitioners, doctors, scientists, and users of all ages ven-

beta-ocimene, trans-beta-ocimene, and rerpinene-4-ol are the major components. The power
of an essential oil lies in irs chem ica l compounds
and their synergy.
There are 13 categories of essential oil constituents. We will list each category with examples of oils contai ning such compounds. The

Science and
Application
Essential oils have a unique ability to penetrate cell membranes and diffuse throughout
the blood and tissues. The unique, lipid-soluble
structure of essential oils is very similar to the
makeup of our cell membranes. The molecules
of essential oils are also relatively small, which
enhances their ability to penetrate into the cells.
When topically applied to the feet or elsewhere,
essential oils can travel throughout the body in a
matter of minutes.
The ability of some essential oils, like clove,
to decrease the viscosity or thickness of the
blood can also enhance circulation and immune
function. Adequate circulation is vital to good
health, since it affects the function of every cell
and organ, including the brain.
Research indicates that when essential oils are
diffused, they can increase atmospheric oxygen
and provide negative ions, which in turn inhibits
bacterial growth. This suggests that essential oils
could play an important role in air purification
and neutralizing odors. Because of their ionizing action, essential oils have the ability to break
down potentially harmful chemicals and render
them nontoxic.
In the human body, essential oils stimulate the
secretion of antibodies, neurotransmitters, endorphins, hormones, and enzymes. Oils containing
limonene have been shown to prevent and slow
the progression of cancer. Other oils, like lavender, have been shown to promote the growth of
hair and increase the rate of wound healing. They
increase the uptake of oxygen and ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the fuel for individual cells.
European scientists have studied the ability of
essential oils to work as natural chelators, binding with heavy metals and petrochemicals and
ferrying them out of the body.
Standards
and Testing
AFNOR/150 Standards
In 1926 AFNOR (Association Francais de
Normalisation) was founded to act as a standards-setting body for a variety of products and
services. These represent general standards set
for a specific group of essential oils. David Stewart, PhD, contacted AFNOR and was told that
this agency sets minimum standards by which
quality, safety, reliability, and performance requirements described in French, European, and
International Standards can be validated.

column-wall thickness set by Dr. Herve Casabianca, Laboratory Director of Natural Product
Research, at CNRS labs in France. This ensures
identification of more compounds that otherwise
might be missed. In addition to operating its analyrical instruments with the same calibration as the
CNRS laboratories, Young Living is continually
expanding its analytical chemical library in order
to perform more thorough chemical analysis.
Gas Chromatography and
Mass Spectrometry
Properly analyzing an essential oil by gas
chromatography is a complex undertaking. The
injection mixture, column diameter and length,
and oven temperature must fall within certain
parameters. Unless individuals have gone to
France and Turkey as Gary Young has and have
been trained in the analytical procedures of gas
chromatography (GC) and mass spectrometry
(MS), they will not understand how to accurately test essential oils.
The GC column length should b~ at least 50
or 60 meters. However, almost all labs in the
United States use a 30-meter column that is not
long enough to achieve proper separation of all
the essential oil constituents. While 30-meter
columns are adequate for analyzing synthetic
chemicals and marker compounds in vitamins,
minerals, and herbal extracts, they are far too
short to properly analyze the complex mosaic of
natural chemicals found in an essential oil.
A longer column also enables double-phased
ramping, which makes it possible to identify constituents that occur in very small percentages by
increasing the separation of compounds. Without
a longer column, it would be extremely difficult
to identify these molecules, especially if they are
chemically similar to each other or to a marker
compound.
Following GC analysis, the oil is run through
an MS instrument to get an even greater separa-

Some writers have claimed that a few compounds, when isolated from the essential oil and
tested in the lab, can exert harmful effects. Even
so-called "nature-identical" essential oils (structured essential oils that have been chemically
duplicated using 5 to 15 of the essential oil's primary chemical compounds in synthetic form)
can produce unwanted side effects or toxicities.
Isolated compounds may be harmful; however,
pure essential oils, in most cases, are not. This is
because natural essential oils contain hundreds
of different compounds, some of which balance
and counter the effects of other compounds.
Many tourists in Egypt are eager to buy local essential oils, especially lotus oil. Vendors
convince the tourists that the oils are 100 percent pure, going so far as to touch a lighted
match to the neck of the oil container to show
that the oil is not diluted with alcohol or other
petrochemical solvents. However, this test provides no reliable indicator of purity. Many synthetic compounds that are not flammable can
be added to an essential oil, including propylene glycol. In addition, flammable solvents can
be added to a vegetable oil base that will cause
it to catch fire . Furthermore, some natural essential oils high in rerpenes can be flammable.
Powerful Influence
of Aromas
The fragrance of an essential oil can directly
affect everything from your emotional state to
your lifespan. The mechanics of the sense of
smell have been described as working like a lock
and key or an odor molecule fitting a specific
receptor site.
When a fragrance is inhaled, the odor molecules travel up the nose where they are trapped
by olfactory membranes that are well protected

by the lining inside the nose. Each odor molecule fits like a little puzzle piece into specific
receptor cell sites that line a membrane known
as the olfactory epithelium. Each one of these
hundreds of millions of nerve cells is replaced
every 28 days. When stimulated by odor molecules, this lining of nerve cells triggers electrical impulses to the olfactory bulb in the brain.
The olfactory bulb then transmits the impulses
to the gustatory center (where the sensation of
taste is perceived), the amygdala (where emotional memories ate stored), and other parts of
the limbic system of the brain.
Because the limbic system is directly connected to those parts of the brain that control heart
rate, blood pressure, breathing, memory, stress
levels, and hormone balance, essential oils can
have profound physiological and psychological
effects.
An Italian scientist named Luca Turin proposed that rather than the "lock and key" theory
of olfaction, it is the vibrationa l properties of
molecules that enable us to distinguish smells.
After earning his PhD in physiology at University College London, Turin worked as a researcher
for the CNRS at the Villefranche Marine Station. Turin's theory has received much support,
including a paper published in 2004 that shows
that odor descriptions seem to correspond more
to vibrational frequency than molecular shape
(See http://en .wi kipedia.org/wiki/Luca_Turin).
The sense of smell is the only one of the five
senses directly linked to the limbic lobe of the
brain, the emotional control center. Anxiety, depression, fear, anger, and joy all emanate from
this region. The scent of a special fragrance can
evoke memories and emotions before we are
even consciously aware of it. When smells are
concerned, we react first and think later. All
other senses (touch, taste, hearing, and sight) are
routed through the thalamus, which acts as the
switchboard for the brain, passing stimuli onto
the cerebral cortex (the conscious thought center) and other parts of the brain.
The limbic lobe (a group of brain structures
that includes the hippocampus and amygdala located below the cerebral cortex) can also directly
activate the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus
is one of the most important parts of the brain,
acting as our hormonal control center. It releases
chemical messengers that can affect everything
from sex drive to energy levels. The production
of growth hormones, sex hormones, thyroid hormones, and neurotransmitters such as serotonin,
are all governed by the hypothalamus. Thus, the
hypothalamus is referred to as the "master gland."
Essential oils-through their fragrance and
unique molecular structure-can directly stimulate the limbic lobe and the hypothalamus. Not
only can the inhalation of essential oils be used
to combat stress and emotional trauma, but it can
also stimulate the production of hormones from
the hypothalamus. This results in increased thyroid hormones (our energy hormone) and growth
hormones (our youth and longevity hormone).
Essential oils may also be used to reduce appetite and produce significant reductions in
weight because of their ability to stimulate the
ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus, a
section of the brain that governs our feeling of
satiety or fullness following meals. In a large
clinical study,' Alan Hirsch, MD, used fragrances, including peppermint, to trigger significant weight losses in a large group of patients
who had previously been unsuccessful in any
type of weight-management program. During
the course of the six-month study involving over
3,000 people, the average weight loss exceeded
30 pounds. According to Dr. Hirsch, some patients actually had to be dropped from the study
to avoid becoming underweight.
Another double-blind, randomized study
by Hirsch' documents the ability of aroma to
enhance libido and sexual arousal. When 31

How to Safely Use Essential Oils
Basic Guidelines
for Safe Use
G uidelines are important to follow when
usin g essential oils, especially if you are unfamiliar with the oils and their benefits. Many
guidelines are listed below and are elaborated on
throughout the chapter. However, no list of do's
and don'ts can ever replace common sense. It is
foo lish to dive headlong into a pond when you
do not know the depth of the water. The same
is true when using essential oils. Start gradually
and patiently find what works best for you and
your family members.
Storage
1. Always keep a bottle of a pure vegetable oil
(e.g. , V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex, olive oil,
almond oil, or more fragrant massage otls
such as Sensation, Relaxation, Ortho Ease,
or Ortho Sport) handy when usi ng essential
oils. Vegetable oils will dilute essential oils if
the essential oils cause discomfort or skin ir-
ritation.
2. Keep bot tles of essential oils tightly closed
and store them in a cool location away from
light. If stored properly, essential oils will
maintain their potency for many years.
3. Keep essential oils out of reach of ch ildren.
T reat the oils as you would any product for
plication.
6. Keep essential oils away from the eye area
and never put them directly into ea rs. Do
not handle contact lenses or rub eyes withessential oils on your fingers. Even in minute
amounts, many essenti al oils may damage
contacts and will irritate eyes.
7. Pregnant women should consult a health-care
professional when starting any type of health
program. Oils are safe to use, but one needs
to use common sense. Follow the directions
and dilute with V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex
until you become familiar with the oils you
are using.
Many pregnant women have sa id that they
feel a very positive response from the unborn
child when the oils are applied on the skin,

CAUTION: Essential oils may sting if applied in or around the eyes. Some oils may be painful on
mucous membranes unless diluted properly. Immediate dilution is strongly recommended if skin
becomes painfully irritated or if oil accidentally gets into eyes. Flushing the area with a vegetable
oil should minimize discomfort almost immediately.
DO NOT flush with water! Essential oils are oil-soluble, not water-soluble. Water will only spread
rhe oils over a larger surface, possibly worsening rhe problem. Use V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex,
coconut oil, olive oil, or other vegetable oil to flush the essential oils. Keep eyes closed, be patient,
and the sting will quickly dissipate.

Other chemica ls such as aluminum compounds, FD&C colors, formaldehyde, all parahens, talc, thimersol, mercury, and titanium
dioxide, just to name a few, are all toxic ro rhe
body and should be avoided. These compounds
are common ly found in a variety of hand creams,
mouthwashes, shampoos, antiperspirants, aftershave lotions, and hair-care products.
Other compounds that present concerns are
sod ium Iaury! sulfate, propylene glycol-extremely common in everything from toothpaste
to sha mpoo -and aluminum sa lts found in
many deodorants.
Of particular concern are the potentially hazardous preservatives and synthetic fragrances
that abound in virtually all modern personalcare products. Some of these include methylene
chloride, methyl isobutyl ketone, and methyl
ethyl ketone. These are not only toxic, but they
can also react with some compounds in natural
essential oils. The result can be a severe case of
derm atitis or even septicem ia (blood poisoning).
A classic case of a synthetic fragrance causing widespread damage occurred in the 1970s.
AETT (acetylethyltetramethyltetralin) appeared
in numerous brands of personal-care products
throughout the United States. Even after a series
of animal studies revealed that it caused significant brain and spinal cord damage, the FDA refused to ban rhe chemical. Finally, the cosmetic
industry voluntarily withdrew AFTT after allowing it to be distributed for years.
How many other toxins masquerading as preservatives or fragrances are currently being used
in personal-care products?
Many chemicals are easily absorbed through
the skin due to its permeability. One study found
that 13 percent of BHT (butylated hydroxy toluene) and 49 percent of DDT (a carcinogenic
pesticide) can be absorbed into the skin upon
topi ca l contact (Steinman, 1997). Once ab-

Topical Application
M any oil s a re safe to apply directly to the
skin . Lavender is sa fe to use on children wit hout dilution. However, you must be sure what
you are usin g is not lavandin labeled as lavender
or genetically altered lavender. W hen applying
most other essential oils on chi ldren, dilute the
oil s with ca rrier oil. For dilution , add 15-30
drops of esse ntial oi l to 1 oz. of quality carrier
oil, as mentioned previously.
C arrier oils such as V- 6 Vegetable Oil C omplex extend essential oils and provide more efficient use. When massaging, the vegetable oil
helps lubricate the skin.
When starting an essential oil application, depending on which oil you use, you may want to
test for ski n sensitivity by applying the oil first
to the bottom of the feet. See the Vita Flex foot
charts in C hapter 6 to identify areas of best application. Sta rt by applyin g 3-6 drops of a single
or blended oil, spreading it over the bottom of
each foot.
When applying essenti al oils to yoursel f, use
1-2 drops of oil on 2-3 locations twice a day.
Increase to four times a day if needed. Apply t he
oi l and allow it to absorb for 2- 3 minutes before
applying another oil or before getting dressed to
avoid staining clothing.
As a general rule, when applying oils to yoursel f or another person for the first tim e, do not
apply more than two single oils or blends at one
time.
When mi xing essential oil blends or diluting
essential oil s in a ca rrier oil , it is best to use con-
comfort.
Cold Packs
Apply essenti al oi ls on the location , fo llowed
by cold water or ice packs when treatin g inflamed or swollen tissues . Froze n packages of
peas or corn make excellent ice packs that will
mold ro the contours of t he body part a nd w ill
not leak. Keep the cold pack on unti l t he swell-
ing diminishes.
For neurologi cal problems, always use cold
packs, never hot ones.
Layering
This technique consists of applying mu ltiple
oils one at a time. For example, rub marjoram
over a sore muscle, massage it into the tissue gently until the a rea is dry, and then apply a second
oil such as peppermint until the oil is absorbed
and the skin is dry. T hen layer on the third oil,
such as basil, and continue massaging.
Making a Compress

Some shower heads have a bypass feature that allows the user to switch from aromatic sa lt water
to regular tap water.
How to Enhance the Benefits
of Topical Application
The longer essent ial oils stay in contact with
the skin, the more li kely they are to be absorbed.
The ART Night Reconstructor or ART Day Activator lotions, Sandalwood Moisture Cream, or
Boswellia Wrinkle Cream may be layered on top
of the essential oils to reduce evaporation of the
oils and enh ance penetration. This may also help
seal and protect cuts and wounds.
Do no t use ointments on burns until they
are at least three days old; however, Lavaderm
Coolin g Mist spray may be used immed iately to
provid e comforting relief for minor burns, abrasions, dryness, and other skin irritations.
Diffusing
Diffused oi ls alter the structure of molecules
that create odors, rather than just masking them.
T hey also increase oxygen avai lability, produce
negative ions, and release natural ozone. Many
essenti al oils such as lemo ngrass, orange, grapefruit, melaleuca (alternifolia-tea tree), eucalyptus (E. globulus), lavender, frankincense, and
lemon , along with esse ntial oil blends (Purification, Melrose, a nd Thieves), are extremely effective for eliminating and destroy ing airborne
germs and bacteria.
.
A cold-air diffuser is designed to atomize
a micro-fine mist of essent ial oils into the air,
where they can remain suspended for several

Thi s chapter describes over 80 si ngle essential

How to Be Sure Your Essential Oils
Are Therapeutic Grade
How can you be sure that your essential oils
are therapeutic grade? Start by asking the following questions from your essential oil supplier:
Are the fragrances delicate, rich, and organic? Do they "feel " natural? D o the aromas
vary from batch to batch as an indication
that they a re painstakingly distilled in small
batches rather than industrially processed on
a large scale?
Does your supplier subject each batch of essential oils through multiple chemical analyses
to test for purity and therapeutic quality? Are
these tests performed by independent labs?
Does your supplier grow and distill organically grown herbs?
Are the d istill ation faciliti es part of the farm
where the herbs are grown (so oils are freshly
distilled) , or do herbs wa it days to be processed and lose potency?
D oes your supplier use low pressure and low
temperature to distill essential oils so as to
preserve all of their fragil e chemical constituents? Are the di stillatio n cookers fa bricated
from costly, food-grade stainless steel alloys
to reduce t he likelihood of the oils chemica lly reacting with met al?
Does your supplier personally inspect the fields
and distilleries where the herbs are grown and
distilled) Do they verify that no synthetic or
harmful solvents or chemicals are being used?
How many yea rs has your supplier been doing all of th is?
How to Maximize the Shelf Life of
Your Essential Oils
The highest quality essential oils are bottled in
dark glass. The reason for this is two-fold. First,
glass is more stable than plastic and does not
"breathe" the sa me way plastic does. Second, the
darkness of the glass protects the oil from light
that may chemically alter or degrade it over time.
After using an essential oil, keep the lid tightly sea led. Bottles that are improperly sealed can
result in the loss of some of the lighter, lowermolecul ar-weight parts of the oil. In addit ion,
over time oxygen in the air reacts with and oxidizes the oil.
Essential oils should be stored away from
light, especially sunl ight-even if they are already stored in amber glass bottles. The darker
the storage conditions, the longer your oil will
maintain its orginal chemistry and qu ality.

The Gift
The Gift is the very "essence of Arabia,"
blending the oils of antiquity into a most unique
and exotic fragrance. It combines seven ancient
therapeutic oils to capture the spirit of Arabia.
This oil blend represents Mary's gift to Gary
in honor of Shutran's noble journey through the
book The One Gift, a historical novel depicting
the wit, intrigue, sorrow, and romance of the
ancient frankincense and myrrh caravans.
Out of the writings and legends of antiquity,
the mysteries unfold as we discover their
powerful usage for healing the injuries of war,
accidents, scorpion stings, and snakebites and
in sacred rituals for attaining greater spiritual
attunement for healing and protecting the body.
Present-day science is now documenting the
properties of these oils that augment the immune
system, stimulate healing, and overcome
depression. Myrrh and frankincense are being
touted for their anticancer, anti-infectious,
antibacterial and viral abilities, as well being
a topical anesthesia and having the ability to
regenerate bone and cartilage. They are the oldest
known substances for their immune stimulating
and healing powers to ever come out of the
ancient world.
Ingredients:
Frankincense (Boswellia sacra) is considered
a holy anointing oil in the Middle East and
has been used in religious ceremonies for
thousands of years. It stimulates the limbic
part of the brain, which elevates the mind,
helping to overcome stress and despair. It
is used in European medicine to combat
depression.
Balsam fir, Idaho (Abies balsamea) opens
emotional blocks and recharges vital energy.
It gives a feeling of strength and inner
peace. As a confer oil, it creates a feeling of
grounding, anchoring, and empowering.

to the mind and improves concentration.
Galbanum (Ferula galbaniflua) has been a
prized oil for healing since biblical times.
("And the Lord said unto Moses, Take unto
thee sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and
galbanum; sweet spices with pure frankincense:" Exodus 30:34).
Myrrh (Commiphora myrrha) possesses the
frequency of wealth according to legends
and is referenced throughout the Old and
New Testaments ("A bundle of myrrh is my
well-beloved unto me ..." Song of Solomon
1:13). It was also part of a formula the Lord
gave to Moses (Exodus 30:22-27). It was
used traditionally in the royal palaces by the
queens during pregnancy and birthing and
confers a sense of dignity and stateliness;
myrrh is a kingly oil.
Cistus (Cistus ladaniferus) enhances immunity and immune cell regeneration. It is anti-infectious, antiviral, and antibacterial, and
in ancient times it was known as rockrose.
Spikenard (Nardostachys jatamansi) was
used by Mary of Bethany to anoint the feet
of Jesus. It strengthens immunity and hypothalamus function. It uplifts and gives spiritual strength and resoluteness for action.
Application:
It can be worn as a perfume, diffused, or
massaged on the bottom of the feet.
Thieves
This is a most amazing blend of highly antiviral, antiseptic, antibacterial, anti-infectious
essential oils.
It was created from research based on legends about a group of 15th-century thieves who
rubbed oils on themselves to avoid contracting
the plague while they robbed the bodies of the
dead and dying. When apprehended, the thieves
were forced to tell what their secret was and disclosed the formula of the herbs, spices, and oils
they used to protect themselves in exchange for
more lenient punishment.
Studies conducted at Weber State University
(Ogden, UT) during 1997 demonstrated the
killing power of these amazing oils against airborne microorganisms. One analysis showed a 90
percent reduction in the number of gram positive Micrococcus luteus organisms after diffusing
for 12 minutes. After 20 minutes of diffusing,
the kill-rate jumped to 99.3 percent. Another
study against the gram negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed a kill rate of99.96 percent after
just 12 minutes of diffusion.
Ingredients:
Clove (Syzygium aromaticum) is one of the most
antimicrobial, antiseptic, antifungal, antiviral,
and anti-infectious of all essential oils.
Lemon (Citrus limon) has antiseptic-like properties and contains compounds that amplifY
immunity. It promotes circulation, leukocyte
formation, and lymphatic function.
Cinnamon bark (Cinnamomum verum) is one
of the most powerful antiseptics known and is
strongly antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal.
Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus radiata) is antiinfectious, antibacterial, antiviral, and antiinflammatory.

to overall relaxation.
Cedarwood (Cedrus atlantica) has a very
high level of sesquiterpenes, which can act
directly on the limbic system in the brain
to induce relaxation and calmness. Like
conifer oils, cedarwood provides a feeling of
"grounding" that contributes to relaxation.
It can also be applied topically, diffused, or
inhaled directly.
Chamomile, Roman (Chamomaelum nobiLis) has traditionally been used to calm and
soothe small children. It combats restlessness, tension, and insomnia.
159
Application:
Trauma Life
The emotional trauma from accidents, death
ofloved ones, assault, abuse, etc., can implant its

Raindrop Technique
Most people would agree that massage
is soothing, relaxing, and pleasurable. But
Raindrop Technique is unquestionably far
superior as it combines essential oils with special
massage techniques to add greater therapeutic
benefits to a pleasurable massage.
Anyone who has experienced Raindrop
Technique is very quick to get on the massage
table again to enjoy and discover new benefits of
this most remarkable application of essential oils.
Raindrop Technique is one of the safest, noninvasive regimens available for spinal health. It
is also an invaluable method to promote healing
from within using topically applied essential oils.
The Development of the
Raindrop Technique
D. Gary Young developed the Raindrop
Technique based on his research of essential oils
and their antimicrobial properties, his knowledge
of the Vita Flex technique and its reflex points
on rhe feet, and fascinating information on the
light stroking called effleurage and its effect on
the muscles and rhe nervous system.
Lakota Indians
While visiting with rhe Lakota people, Gary
learned that for several generations before the
U.S. I Canadian border was established, the
Lakota Indians migrated across the Canadian
border into the northern regions of Saskatchewan
and Manitoba. There, they often witnessed the
Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis.
Those who were ill or had complicated
health problems would stand facing the Aurora
Borealis, hold their hands toward the lights, and
inhale deeply.
The Lakota believed that when the Aurora
Borealis was visible, the air was charged with

White Angelica: Protection for adversarial
energies
Simple Explanation
The oils are dispensed like drops of rain from a
height of about 6 inches above the back. Starting
from the low back, the oils are feathered with the
back of the fi ngers up along the vertebrae, out
over the back muscles, and over the shoulders
to the neck. Although the entire technique
takes from 30-45 minutes to complete, the oils
continue to work for several days as the healing
and realignment process takes place.
Many recipients feel the benefits of the oils for
several days afterwards, as they recognize that the
pain has decreased or is completely gone, there
is no feve r, they have more mobili ty, and they
have an overall feeling of peace and a renewed

Foot Application-Facilitator-Valor
Stand at the feet of the receiver, put 6 drops
of Valor in each hand, and then put the palms of
each hand on the soles of each foot: right palm
on the sole of the right foot and left palm on the
sole of the left foot. The facilitator will have to
cross arms, as shown in Figure 1. The palms of
the hands will be underneath each foot, in the
arch area.
The facilitator needs to focus while holding
this position for up to 5 minutes, feeling for
subtle changes such as increased warmth, smooth
pulsing sensations, or vibrations. Once the
facilitator senses the energy in both hands, he
or she can recheck the length of the legs and
proceed to the next step.

A second facilitator ideally performs this step

Taking Charge of
Your Health
Many people think that by taking supplements,
they can solve their health challenges. ~ey do not
consider the negative impact of the env!fonment
and what they could do co change it.
Today's diet is immensely deficient, which
greatly affects our health and well-being and is
certainly something co be evaluated and perhaps
changed. Exercise should be a routine part of
weekly activities, but most of us simply do not
make the time. It takes discipline and commltment and would definitely have a positive effect
on our health.
Emotional and spiritual feelings and attitudes
that negatively affect one's life are perhaps the
most difficult co recognize. An unhealthy state of
being, disease, and even death can be brought on
by negative thoughts and emotions.
Many people, including social workers and
health practitioners, believe that negative emo- .
tions are the precursor tO both mental and physical dysfunction of the body, resulting in mental
illness and disease. Surely, that is not true in all
cases, but it is definitely something tO consider.
We must look at all of these things in an effort
to bring balance to our lives, overcome body
dysfunction and disease, and find happiness and
fulfillment.

Getting Started
Methods of Application
Essential oils are very concentrated, natural
substances-easily I 00 rimes more concentrated
than the natural herbs and plants from which
they are distilled. For this reason it is important
to dilute certain essential oils before using them
therapeutically.
Other essential oils are so mild that dilution is
simply nor necessary, even for use on infants.
The five standard methods of application are
topical, inhalation , ingestion, oral, and retention.
195

Developing
Your Program
It is usually best to use one or two application
methods at a time. If you were to use all 10
applications for a sore throat at once, it would
take more time and probably be inconvenient,
costly, and unnecessary.
First, you must decide which oils and
supplements you want to use for your program.
Choose up to three or four oils, be certain how
many drops you are going use, undiluted or
diluted, and if diluted, what the dilution ratio is
that you want to try.
For example: If you have sore shoulder
muscles, you could decide to use the following:
YourOUs:
PanAway: dilution 50/50
Aroma Siez: dilution 50/50
Helichrysum: neat
V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex

ALKALOSIS
Alkalosis is a condition where the pH of the
intestinal tract and the blood becomes excessively
alkaline. While moderate alkalinity is essential
for good health, excessive alkalinity can cause
problems and result in fatigue, depression,
irritability, and sickness.
The best way to lower the internal pH of the
body is to eat a high protein diet (meat, eggs,
dairy, seeds, nuts, legumes, etc.).

ALLERGIES
Allergies are a result of the response to many
different situations. They can be triggered by
food, pollen, environmental chemicals, dander,
dust, insect bites, to name just a few, and can
affect the following:
Respiration-wheezing, labored breathing
Mouth-swelling of the lips or tongue,
itching lips
Digestive tract-diarrhea, vomiting, cramps
Skin-rashes, dermatitis
Nose-sneezing, congestion, bloody nose
Food allergies are different from food
intolerances. Food allergies involve an immune
system reaction, whereas food intolerances
involve gastrointestinal reactions and are far
more common.
For example, peanuts often produce a lifelong
allergy due to peanut proteins being targeted by
immune system antibodies as foreign invaders.
In contrast, intolerance of pasteurized cow's milk
that causes cramping and diarrhea is due to the
inability to digest lactose (milk sugar) because of
a lack of the enzyme lactase.

BEDBUGS
Bed bugs are a very miserable experience.
Some are so small they just look like specs of
dirt that you brush off the sheets. You cannot
tell they are alive unless you look at them with
a microscope. They thrive in a moist, warm
environment, and when you wake up in the
morning, you are astounded at all the bites you
have in the most unexpected places.
The itching is horrible and lasts for about
one week. It is amazing that a tiny, almost
microscopic bug can give such an intense
bite. Essential oils are the answer to dreaded
chemicals. Some of the oils have a powerful
ability to kill on contact. The thought of sleeping
with those little, hungry critters is not a pleasant
thought, and to some, it's repulsive; but knowing
the bugs are dead is a positive feeling.
If you suspect bed bugs, wash all your bedding
in hot water and add I 0 to 15 drops of Thieves,
pal9 santo, oregano, thyme, Citrus Fresh,
Melrose, etc. and see what works best for you.
After you make the bed, spray with a single oil
or with one of the recipes morning and night to
ensure that they do not return.

Chigger and Tick Bites
It is important that ticks and chiggers be
removed before treating the bite. People have
tried many different ways of getting rid of these
invaders. Sometimes chiggers can be removed or
killed by covering the bite with clear fingernail
polish.
A common method for removing ticks is to
touch them gently with a recently blown out
match head. The heat often causes ticks to let go
so that they can just be brushed off.
Essential oils work quickly to remove ticks
and chiggers. Mix thyme or oregano in a 50/50
dilution and apply 1-2 drops over the bite area.

BURNS
(See SKIN DISORDERS and SHOCK)
There are three types of burns:
First-degree burns only damage the outer
layer of the skin. Sunburn is typically a firstdegree burn.
Second-degree burns damage both the outer
layer and the underlying layer known as the
dermis, manifested by blisters.
Third-degree burns not only destroy
or damage skin but can even damage
underlying rissues.
Burns can be caused by sunlight, chemicals,
electricity, radiation, and heat. Thermal burns are
the most common type.
Aloe vera gel (contained in LavaDerm)
is used extensively in the treatment of
burns and has been studied for its antiinflammatory and tissue-regenerating
properties.
Helichrysum, lavender, Idaho balsam
fir, and frankincense oils support tissue
regeneration and reduce scarring and skin
discoloration.
Severe burns can result in dehydration
and mineral loss. Inflammation often
accompanies burns, so dietary protocols
should be used to lessen inflammation.
If the burn is large or severe, the individual
may go into shock. Inhaling oils may help
reduce the shock.
After a burn has started to heal and is drying
and cracking, use Rose Ointment or a body

CANCER
Cancer is among the most complex and difficult
of any human disease to treat. A patient diagnosed
with cancer should always defer to his/her
physician for primary care. Keeping this in mind,
a number of individuals have achieved successful
remission by following a natural protocol and
some of the principles outlined in this section.
It is important to note that many natural
therapies-especially those using essential oilswork best in the early stages of cancer. In fact, all
clinical trials are showing that frankincense is the
number one inhibitor of many cancers. Citrus
oils, high in d-limonene, including orange,
grapefruit, and tangerine, work better as cancer
preventatives than cancer treatments, although
they have been tested to have powerful, anticancer properties in all stages of cancer.
A 1996 study at Charing Cross Hospital in
London, England, achieved close to a 15 percent
remission rate in patients -.yith advanced colon
and breast cancer using doses from 1 to 15
grams of d-limonene from orange oil as their
only treatment. In patients with only weeks or
months to live, limonene treatment extended
patients' lives by up to 18 months in some cases. 9
The Foundation of Natural Cancer
Treatment
Emotions and Cancer
Cancer should always be treated first by
discovering the underlying emotions that
contributed to the onset of the disease. In many
cases, negative emotions and trauma not only
trigger the beginning of cancer but can further
its metastasis. Any kind of negative emotionanger, fear, rage, helplessness, abandonmentcan cause the cancer to spread faster.
When essential oils are used as the basis
of an emotional care program , they can have
powerfully positive effects in improving the
attitude and emotional well-being and potential

This does not just apply to women but applies to men as well. Believe it, or not, men have
estrogen also and will respond the same way to
both phytoestrogens and mycoestrogens (estrogens produced by fungi found in stored grain)
that stimulate the production of 16-alpha-hydroxyestrone. If there were more focus on eating
unprocessed foods; cleansing the liver of toxins,
petrochemicals, and undigested pollutants; and
improving and building a reserve of metabolic
enzymes, there would be much less cancer.
Cancer and Antioxidants
It is recommended to seek the advice from a
health-care professional before embarking on
any antioxidant program. Some studies have
reported that certain antioxidants can reduce the
effectiveness of some types of chemotherapy such
as cisplatin. However, a 20 I 0 human study by A.
Pace found that vitamin E had a neuroprotective
effect against the serious, adverse effects of
cisplatin.
A large number of other studies have found
the opposite, showing that antioxidants can
improve patient remissions and prognosis. In
the case of radiation treatments, a number of
well-controlled studies have sim ilarly found
that antioxidants can improve patient outcomes
dramatically and counter the injury and immune
supp ress ion caused by these therapies.
Similar to DNA-protective essential oils,
antioxidants produce their best results as
cancer preventatives and in the earliest stages of
cancer. As cancer progresses, the likelihood of
meaningful remissions, using only antioxidants
declines rapidly.
Research conducted at Brigham Young
University in Provo, Utah, and the UNLV
Cancer Research Institute identified some of the
most inhibitory essential oils against a variety
of cancer cell lines. The oils were also tested for
their lack of toxicity to normal cells.
cancer dramatically.
The natural salicylates found in the essential
oil of wintergreen are very close in structure
to the acetyl salicylic acid found in asp irin.
According to Erica Leibert of Harvard
University, wintergreen oil is 40 percent stronger
than an aspirin equivalent with very similar antiinflammatory properties.
Clove has been researched as a potential chemopreventive agent for lung cancer because of its
powerful anti-inflammatory effects. 13 The biochemical alpha-humulene in the oil, also found
in Idaho balsam fir and copaiba, has been shown
to have significant cancer prevention properties
through its anti-inflammatory action."
Frankincense and conifer .oils like balsam
fir containing 1-limonene are coming to the
forefront of attention in cancer research in
various cancer-treatment study programs
at Oklahoma State University, Wake Forest
University, and Virginia-Maryland Regional
College of Veterinary Medicine.
The 1-limonene found in frankincense and
Idaho balsam fir shows a remarkable ability
to suppress tumor growth, particularly in
melanoma. Boswellic acids found in frankincense
gum resin have also been shown to have
powerful, anti-inflammatory effects. Myrrh gum
has been studied for its ability to combat various
cancers, including breast cancer.
Anti-inflammatory Essential Oils Suitable
for Most Cancers: Frankincense, clove,
Idaho balsam fir, palo santo, ledum, myrrh,
wintergreen
tarragon
233
Dosages
Essential oils recommended as parr of the
therapy should be used at initial dosages of 800 mg
(approx. 20 drops) 2 times a day. Add 1-3 drops of
peppermint to prevent acid reflux. This dose can be
increased as needed (up to 6 capsules per day).
It may be necessary to rotate among several
different essential oils over the course of 90
days so that the cancer cells do not develop a
resistance to a particular essential oil. The same
oil should not be used for longer than 3 to 4
weeks before rotating to a different essential oil.
CARPALTUNNELSYNDROME
Nerves pass through a tunnel formed by wrist
bones (known as carpals) and a rough membrane
on the underside of the wrist that binds the
bones together. The tunnel is rigid, so if the
tissues within it swell, they press and pinch the
nerves and create a painful condition known
as carpal runnel syndrome. This condition is
primarily sports related or caused by activities
that involve strenuous or repeated use of wrists.
A similar, but less common condition can occur
in rhe ankle (tarsal tunnel syndrome) or elbow.

DIVERTICULOSIS/DIVERTICULITIS
(See COLITIS, CROHN'S DISEASE)
Diverticulosis is one of the most common
conditions in the U.S . and is caused by a lack of
fiber in the diet. Diverticulosis is characterized
by small, abnormal pockets (diverticula) chat
bulge out through weak spots in che wall of
the intestine. It is estimated that half of all
Americans from age 60 co 80 have diverticulosis.
Symptoms:
Cramping
Bloating
Constipation
Fever and chills
Cramping tenderness on lower left side of
abdomen
Constipation
One of the easiest ways co resolve this
condition is by increasing fiber intake to 20-30
grams daily. Peppermint oil can also stimulate
contractions in the colon.
While diverticulosis involves the condition of
merely having colon abnormalities, diverticulitis
occurs when these abnormalities or diverticula
become infected or inflamed. Diverticulitis
is present in I 0-25 percent of people with
diverticulosis .
Many of these symptoms are similar co chose
of irritable bowel syndrome.

from stress, fatigue, or other factors, the microor-
ganisms can be released, and rhe body will manifest illness and disease.
Oregano, rhyme, or hyssop applied along rhe
spine using Raindrop Technique may help ro drive

HYPOGLYCEMIA
Hypoglycemia may be caused by low thyroid
function (See Thyroid).
Excessive consumption of sugar or honey will
also cause reactive hypoglycemia, in which a
rapid rise in blood sugar is followed by a steep
drop to abnormally low levels.
In some cases, hypoglycemia may be a
precursor to Candida, allergies, chronic fatigue
syndrome, depression, and chemical sensitivities.
Signs of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) include:
o Fatigue, drowsiness, and sleepiness after meals
0
Headache or dizziness if times between
meals are too long
o Craving for sweets
o Allergic reaction to foods
0
Palpitations, tremors, sweats, rapid heartbeat
0
Inattentiveness, mood swings, irritability,
anxiety, nervousness, inability to cope with
stress, and feelings of emotional depression
o Lack of motivation, discipline, and creativity
o Hunger that cannot be satisfied
Often people with some of these symptoms are
misdiagnosed as suffering either chronic fatigue
or neurosis. Instead, they may be hypoglycemic.
To treat chronic hypoglycemia, it is important
to treat the underlying cause such as Candida or
yeast overgrowth (See Fungal Infections).
Essential oils may reduce hypoglycemic
symptoms by helping to normalize sugar
cravings, supporting and stabilizing sugar
metabolism in the body.

filter over 200 quarts of blood each day and
remove over 2 quarts of waste products and
water that flow into the bladder as urine through
tubes called ureters.
Strong kidneys are essential for good health.
Inefficient or damaged kidneys can result m
waste accumulating in the blood and causing
serious damage.
High blood pressure can be a c.ause a.nd a
result of chronic kidney failure, smce kidneys
are central to blood regulation (See High Blood
Pressure).

Kidney Inflammation/Infection
(Nephritis)
Kidney inflammation can be caused by
structural defects, poor diet, or bacterial
infection from Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus
aureus, Enterobacter, and Klebsiella bacteria.
Abnormal proteins trapped in the glomeruli
(tiny filtering units in the kidneys), called
glomerulonephritis, can also cause inflammation
and damage to these tiny filtering units.
This disease can be acute (flaring up in a few
days) or chronic (taking months or years to
develop). The mildest forms may not show any
symptoms except through a urine test. At more
advanced stages, urine appears smoky as small
amounts of blood are passed and eventually
turn red as more blood is excreted-the signs of
impending kidney failure.
As with all serious conditions, you should
immediately consult a health-care professional if
you suspect a kidney infection of any kind .
Symptoms may include the following:
Feeling of discomfort in lower back
Drowsiness
Nausea
Smokey or red-colored urine
Damage to the glomeruli caused by bacterial
infections is called pyelonephritis. To reduce
infection, drink a gallon of water mixed with 8
oz. of unsweetened cranberry juice daily and use
the products listed below.

LIVER DISORDERS
The liver is one of the most important organs,
playing a major role in detoxifYing the body.
When the liver is damaged, frequently due to
excess alcohol consumption, viral hepatitis, or
poor diet, an excess of toxins can build up in the
blood and tissues that can result in degenerative
disease and death.
Jaundice (abnormal yellow color of the skin),
may be the only visible sign of liver disease.
Symptoms of a stressed or diseased liver:
Nausea
Loss of appetite
Dark-colored urine
Yellowish or gray-colored bowel movements
Abdominal pain or ascites, an unusual
swelling of the abdomen caused by an
accumulation of fluid
Itching, dermatitis, or hives
Disturbed sleep caused by the buildup of
unfiltered toxins in the blood

MALARIA
Malaria is a serious disease contracted from
several species of Anopheles mosquitoes. While
malaria is largely confined ro the continents of
Asia and Africa, an increasing number of cases
have arisen in North and South America. If not
treated, malaria can be fatal.
Symptoms:
Fever
Chills
Anemia
The best defense against malaria is to use
insect repellents effective against Anopheles
mosquitoes. Once a person has contracted the
disease, one of the few natural aids ro healing it
is natural quinine. Essential oils such as niaouli
(Melaleuca quinquenervia) can help amplify
immune response.

MENOPAUSE
As women age, their levels of progesterone
decline and contribute to osteoporosis, increased
risk of breast and uterine cancers, mood swings,
depression, and many other conditions. Estrogen
levels can also decline and increase women's risk
of heart disease.
Between the ages of 45 and 55, these
hormones decline to a point where menstruation
ceases. Replacing rhese declining levels using
topically applied progesterone or pregnenolone
creams may be rhe most effective way to replace
and boost declining hormone levels.
Pregnenolone may be especially effective as it
is the precursor hormone from which the body
creates borh progesterone and estrogens.

NEURALGIA
Neuralgia is pain from a damaged nerve.
It can occur in the face, spine, or elsewhere.
This recurring pain can be traced along a nerve
pathway. Carpal tunnel syndrome is a specific
type of neuralgia. The primary symptom is
temporary sharp pain in the peripheral nerve(s).

If there is nerve damage, apply 4-6 drops of peppermint, or other desired oil, along the spine. Use a
gentle, rocking motion on the tissue between each
vertebra, between each rib on the vertebra knuckles starting at the base of the spine all the way up
on each side of the spine to the neck. Use medium
pressure with the rocking morion for 1-10 seconds at
each location. Then follow the same procedure once
more along the spine next to each vertebra.
307
308
NEUROPATHY
Neuropathy refers to actual damage to the
peripheral nerves, usually from an auto-immune
condition.
Damage to these peripheral nerves (other than
spinal or those in the brain) generally starts as
tingling in hands and feet and slowly spreads
along limbs to the trunk.
Numbness, sensitive skin, neuralgic pain,
and weakening of muscle power can all develop
in varying degrees. Most common causes
include complications from diabetes (diabetic
neuropathy), alcoholism, vitamin B12 deficiency,
tumors, too many painkillers, exposure and
absorption of chemicals, metals, pesticides, etc.
B vitamins and minerals such as magnesium,
calcium, potassium, and organic sulfur are
important in repairing nerve damage and
quenching pain from inflamed nerves.
Fleabane (conyza) may boost production of
pregnenolone and human growth hormone.
Pregnenolone aids in repairing damage to the
myelin sheath. 25 Juniper also may help in supporting nerve repair.
If paralysis is a problem, a regeneration of up
to 60 percent may be possible. If, however, the
nerve damage is roo severe, treatment may not
help. If the damage starts to reverse, there will
be pain. Apply a few drops ofPanAway neat on
location.

OBESITY
(See DEPRESSION)
Hormone treatments using natural
progesterone (for women) and testosterone
(for men) may be one of the most powerful
treatments for obesity. In women, progesterone
levels drop dramatically after menopause,
and this can result in substantial weight gain,
particularly around the hips and thighs. Using
transdermal creams or serums to replace
declining progesterone can result in a substantial
decline in body fat.
Diffusing or directly inhaling essential oils can
have an immediate positive impact on moods
and appetites. Olfaction is the only sense that
can have direct effect on the limbic region of the
brain. Studies at the University of Vienna have
shown that some essential oils and their primary
constituents can stimulate blood flow and
activity in the emotional centers of the brain 26
Fragrance influences can penetrate the
amygdala in the center of the brain in such a
manner that frequent inhalation of pleasing
aromas can significantly reduce appetite. Dr.
Alan Hirsch, in his landmark studies, showed
dramatic weight loss in research subjects using
aromas from peppermint oil and vanilla absolute
to curb food cravings. 27

PROSTATE PROBLEMS
Natural progesterone is one of the best natural
remedies for prostate inflammation (BPH) that
can obstruct urinary flow and lead to impotence.
Transdermal creams are the most effective means
of hormone delivery.
Scientists are tracing the higher incidence of
hormone-dependent cancers including cancer
of the breast, prostate, and testes to exposure
to endocrine disrupters in the environment.
Contamination from 39 petrochemicals like
DDT, PCB, pesticides, the phthalate DBP, and
synthetic steroids in meat are all implicated in
interfering with hormone receptors, rendering
them unable to function properly, eventually
leading to cancer.
For prostate problems, peppermint acts as an
anti-inflammatory to the prostate. Saw palmetto,
Pygeum africanum, and pumpkin seed oil also
help reduce prostate swelling.

SCOLIOSIS
Scoliosis is an abnormal lateral or sideto-side curvature or twist in the spine. It is
different from hyperkyphosis (hunchback)
or hyperlordosis (swayback), which invol~e .
excessive front-to-back accentuation of exJstmg
spine curvatures.
.
While some cases of scoliosis can be attnbuted
ro congenital deformities such as MS, cerebral
palsy, Down's syndrome, or Marfan syndrome,
the vast majority of scoliosis types are of
unknown origin.
Some medical professionals believe that
scoliosis may be caused by persistent muscle
spasms that pull the vertebrae of the spine out of
alignment. Others feel-and there is a growing
body of research documenting this hypothesisthat it begins with hard-to-detect inflammation
along the spine caused by latent viruses (See
citations in this chapter).
Symptoms:
When bending forward, the left side of the
back is higher or lower than the right side
(the patient must be viewed from the rear).
One hip may appear to be higher or more
prominent than the other.
Uneven shoulders or scapulas (shoulder
blades).
When the arms are hanging loosely, the
distance between the left arm and left side is
different than the distance between the right
arm and right side.
The Raindrop Technique is proving to be an
effective therapy for helping scoliosis, easing
pain, and reducing misalignment.

SKIN DISORDERS
Essential oils can have powerful antioxidant
and antibacterial benefits for the skin. Essential
oils used on the skin are often combined with a
vegetable carrier oil to:
Slow evaporation, allowing more time for
the oils to penetrate the skin.
Maintain the lipid barrier of the skin
because most essential oils will tend to dry
the skin.
Enhance the effect of the essential oils
because many oils work well synergistically
in a vegetable oil. Many skin conditions
are related to dysfunctions of the liver. It
may be necessary to cleanse, sti mulate, and
condition the liver and colon for 30-90 days
before the skin begins to improve.

physical contact.
The most worrisome aspect of this disease is it
latency. Those infected may harbor the germ for
years, yet display no outward or visible signs of
infection. However, when the immune system
becomes challenged or weakened due to stress,
Candida, diabetes, corticosteroid use, or other
factors, the bacteria can become reactivated and
develop into full-blown TB.
Because many essential oils have broadspectrum, antimicrobial properties, they can
be diffused to prevent the spread of airborne
bacteria like Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Essential
oils and blends like Thieves, Purification, Raven,
R. C., and Sacred Mountain are extremely
effective for killing this type of germ.
Many essential oils have also been shown
to stimulate the immune system. Lemon
oil has been shown to increase lymphocyte
production-a pivotal part of the immun.e
system.
