Suggestions for the College Bound Students and Parents
Basic Fundamentals from Dr. Hill, CMO for doTERRA
We tend to be extra conscious of our immunity during the winter months when cold and flu season is upon us. It is important to develop a daily routine of essential oil use that includes diffusion, surface contact, and personal application during this time when the immune system may be especially compromised. Along with essential oils, good nutrition is another key aspect in maintaining strong immunity for all members of the family. The Lifelong Vitality products and citrus oils are powerful immune stabilizers that should be used daily. Citrus oils can increase the production of glutathione. We know that glutathione fortifies cellular structures of the immune system, so improving glutathione levels gives us greater resiliency in all tissues of the body. We also need to be aware of immune detractors (stress, poor diet, etc.) and similarly manage these issues through lifestyle modification and daily use of essential oils.

Love the updates in my inbox:
When we left TIRR four years ago, the doctors told us that they did not know what caused our son to have Guillian-Barre Syndrome. They did not know if it was a virus or a bacteria that caused his immune system to go into overdrive and start attacking his body.
We are blessed beyond words, and I am very thankful to have these oils that have been around thousands of years as part of our present daily wellness routine. They are naturally antiviral and antibacterial plus a whole lot more for medicinal properties.
Contact me :) If referring friends, I would love to educate them about the oils. Education is knowledge and knowledge is power. ANITA, Wellness Advocate #391363
