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.
I started getting a bug that the kids have been passing around. I had 30 minutes to leave for my sons JROTC competition and knew I wouldn't be able to make it since I had nausea and diarrhea.
So I placed 2 drops each of Ginger and Peppermint oils in 1 cup of water and drank it down.
We made it to the competition early and it is now 6 pm and I am still feeling fine.
