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.
Before discovering the world of therapeutic essential oils, I had been having chronic middle ear infections for a few years. They would last an average of a month and I would have to go on various antibiotics to clear them.
One winter, I got yet another middle ear infection. A Young Living distributor friend of mine brought me a bottle of Oregano oil and showed me how to take the oil internally. I started off ingesting 5 drops mixed with Olive oil in a gel cap and taking it 3x a day after a meal.
The next day I went up to 8 drops, 3x a day, then to 10 drops 3x a day. By the third day, it already went away. However, I continued this protocol for one week, by decreasing the amount of drops per day, just to be sure it was really gone.
It has been over 2 years, and I have never had another infection since. This began my journey with high quality essential oils. I have since become a distributor and am committed to sharing these oils with everyone I meet!
