YOUNG LIVING ESSENTIAL OILS
Essential oils are made by extracting the oils from thousands of plants. The process begins by harvesting the plants and ends with a concentrated oil. There are many steps in this process that affect the purity and therapeutic value of the oil. There is no regulatory body for Essential Oils, although many companies have in house quality regulations. Therefore, choosing a company that grows and harvests their own plants and has years of experience refining the processes is good way of choosing a quality company. Young Living is that company as they have been producing essential oils for many years. They have control over the chemicals used in planting the flowers and the processes of extracting the oils (which can yield no or many therapeutic constituents depending on how oil processed).
