Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


My good friend Joe started with Young Living Essential Oils a while ago and raves about it. But I am a pessimist and did not believe him.

I finally figured, "Why not try it?" It wouldn't hurt me. And even though I had lost 100 pounds, I have been stuck between 260-280 for about a year.

Something needed to change and the essential oils at Joe's place smelled amazing! I wanted a diffuser, so I ended up with the NingXia Red starter kit (have no idea why, I just did it) along with my other starter kit.

I have been drinking one ounce of NingXia Red juice every morning, and I have been sleeping so well. I have not slept this well since I was about five years old!

On top of that, my husband and I each wake up well rested, have the NingXia Red, and that is it. The weight is falling off of both of us! That is all I have changed. I did not add exercise, just NingXia Red in the morning, which gives me amazing energy. I am always active during the day, but now I do not feel drained and exhausted.

I am naturally eating less. I have not craved sugar. (Normally I LOVE CAKE and MILK.) I have hardly eaten dinner either. I am just not hungry, and I do not feel that I need to eat as much as I used to. I obviously ate too much before!

Now I am no longer making plans with friends to eat; we are making plans to have fun without food, if this makes sense. It is hard to explain; I just do not care to eat.

My husband said that the NingXia Red makes him feel less bloated and full of energy. He describes it as a "kick" to get moving around faster in the morning.

Then, by the time my husband gets home, it is late, and we realize that we have not eaten. I am not kidding when I say that we have not had dinner this week and DO NOT MISS IT either.

I was almost 270 when my order came, my clothes were not fitting, and I was not very happy with myself. Now this morning I am 247 pounds. This was the boost that I needed to get moving towards 200 pounds again.

My husband was over 300. He is 6'4" ex-military. He is mostly muscle but packed on some weight over the past 5-10 years. He just told me that he has lost about 12-13 pounds, and I am down about 23 pounds.

I have no idea if this was supposed to happen, but it did! And you can bet that I have another order of NingXia Red coming. I also just ordered the Slique products and cannot wait to get it as well.

I should add that the main reason that I did not try this regimen earlier is that I was a full-time nursing student (second career), and money is tight. But it comes down to about $1 a dose for the NingXia Red, and basically I think that I am worth it.

Prior to the NingXia Red I had already started trying to eat clean and avoid GMO's, etc. The NingXia Red makes the junk GMO food taste just like that... crap! The NingXia Red helps me eat cleaner as well as eat less. We are actually saving a boatload on groceries now too.

I hope others have the same results. I know that I am not at the normal/average weight range yet. However, this protocol is giving my husband the same results, so we are keeping the NingXia Red coming. We have only used two bottles of NingXia Red so far, and what I have reported is our results from just those two bottles!

I am stunned that I am talking so highly of this regimen so soon. I would recommend this protocol to others. I have friends asking me about it already.

I will be setting up an essential oil party soon with Joe, and I think that I am gonna go full steam ahead with these essential oils!
