			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="tweetmeme_button" style="float: right; margin-left: 10px;"><a href="http://api.tweetmeme.com/share?url=http%3A%2F%2Fyounglivingscents.com%2F%3Fp%3D100"><img src="http://api.tweetmeme.com/imagebutton.gif?url=http%3A%2F%2Fyounglivingscents.com%2F%3Fp%3D100" height="61" width="51" /></a></div><p>The following article was published by Debra Raybern, N.D., M.H., C.N.C., October 2006. I thought it was well worth my time to read it, enjoy!</p>
<p>I’ve always said the unsung hero organs in the body were the kidneys. Much attention is paid to the liver, as it should be, but we should not neglect the kidneys – just because we have two of them, doesn’t mean one is a spare. Here are a few reason’s why.</p>
<p>Your kidneys clean and filter your entire blood volume each hour. They help to maintain proper acid/alkaline pH levels, which we know is important in disease prevention, weight balance and emotional health. The kidneys are almost solely responsible for regulating the body’s fluid balance &#8211; keeping enough water on hand to prevent dehydration, bathe the cells, yet, prevent the holding of water – a condition often referred to as edema.</p>
<p>Your kidneys help to regulate blood pressure. Hypertension (HBP) or elevated blood pressure is the #1 cause of cardiovascular death in America. The kidneys aid in the assimilation of vitamins into your blood stream. What is not used is excreted through the urine. Sometimes when a person’s urine is quite yellow it indicates the kidneys need a little more support or cleansing. But also note that B vitamins are often sourced from foods rich in yellow color.</p>
<p>The kidneys help to regulate and control the production of red blood cells which carry oxygen to every cell in the body. Some cases of anemia may be linked to lowered kidney function, not just poor iron assimilation.</p>
<p><strong>So how do we keep these 2 fist-size organs located above the waist on the back healthy?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Drink plenty of good clean water, half your body weight in ounces is a good rule to follow. Adding a few drops of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=young-living" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with young living">Young Living</a> Lemon essential oil will also alkalize the water for better health.</li>
<li>Eat about 75% of your food raw – still retaining not only their enzymes and nutrients but their higher water content.</li>
<li>Drink NingXia Red, at least 3 oz. daily – if you are having a kidney issue then up to 6 ozs. per day until resolved. An even better plan is to commit to drinking one bottle of NingXia Red per week for six months – you will no doubt see amazing results.</li>
<li>A bottle of K&amp;B kidney formula from <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=young-living" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with young living">Young Living</a> will aid in detoxifying and supporting the kidneys. Use as directed for one bottle, three times per year for general maintenance and use often if kidney issues are present.</li>
<li>Melrose is great applied neat (undiluted) topically over the bladder for incontinence.</li>
<li>Juva Cleanse is excellent to flush the kidneys of heavy metals. Two “00” capsules twice per day for a full bottle is all that is needed by most folks. Repeat twice per year.</li>
<li>Ledum (in Juva Cleanse) has historical evidence as a kidney cleanser in cases of E-Coli in the kidneys.</li>
<li>NO sodas, or coffee – both are highly acidic.</li>
</ul>
<p>Treat your kidneys with love and care. So along with joining LLC – (the Liver Lovers Club), consider enrolling in KLC (the Kidney Lovers Club) as well – both are free and will pay you back with a lifetime of great health.</p>
<p><strong>If your kidneys are not functioning at optimum you could experience:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>bladder infections</li>
<li>kidney infections</li>
<li>incontinence &amp; urinary urgency</li>
<li>kidney stones</li>
<li>kidney failure</li>
<li>skin rashes</li>
<li>brain fog</li>
<li>elevated blood sugar</li>
<li>cancer</li>
<li>fatigue</li>
</ul>
<p>Almost always these conditions can be prevented, even healed, if you are willing to adopt a healthy food program, exercise, establish a periodic cleansing routine, nourish the kidneys and have a healthy attitude. Using the many high quality <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=young-living" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with young living">Young Living</a> products supports your commitment to good health. I encourage you to use YL products for everything and everyone in your home! Debra Raybern, October 2006</p>

<p>The easiest and simplest way of putting <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> into the air for inhalation is to use an aromatic diffuser. A cold air diffuser uses room-temperature air to blow the oil up against some kind of nebulizer. This breaks the oils up into a micro-fine mist that is then dispersed into the air. The oils, with their oxygenating molecules, will then remain suspended for several hours to freshen and improve the quality of the air. The anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and antiseptic properties of the oils kill bacteria and help reduce fungus and mold. <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">Essential oils</a>, when diffused, have been found to reduce the amount of airborne chemicals and metallics as well as help to create greater spiritual, physical, and emotional harmony.</p>
<p>Recommended Diffusing Time</p>
<p>While a diffusers can run continuously until it is out of oil, the greatest therapeutic benefit is received by diffusing oils for only 10 minutes out of an hour so that the olfactory system has time to recover before receiving more oils. This also helps to conserve your oils. A simple way to do this is to use a programmable timer that can automatically turn on your diffuser each hour for 10 minutes.</p>
<p>Oils for Air Purification</p>
<p>Diffusing <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> in the home or work place is one of the best ways to purify our environment. The anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and antiseptic properties of the oils, along with the negative ions and oxygenating molecules that are released when <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> are diffused, all help to reduce chemicals, bacteria, and metallics in the air.</p>
<p>Cinnamon bark, mountain savory, oregano, and Theives (a blend by <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=young-living" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with young living">Young Living</a> <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">Essential Oils</a>), were all tested by Weber State University and were shown to kill 99.96% of the airborne bacteria present when diffused into the atmosphere.</p>
<p><em>The information above is from the Reference Guide for <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">Essential Oils</a> by Connie &amp; Alan Higley, and from KID-Radio broadcast, March 5, 1996 with Lance Richardson &amp; Gary Young</em></p>
<p>Negative Ions</p>
<p>Negative ions are produced naturally by wind and rain. They help stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system which controls rest, relaxation, digestion, and sleep. If you live in a stressful environment, or an environment full of electronic equipment (which produce positive ions), the diffusion of negatively ionizing oils can help balance the ions in the air and produce a more stress free environment.</p>
<p>Oils that ionize negatively when diffused include: bergamot, cedarwood, citronella, eucalyptus (citriodora), grapefruit, lavandin, lavender, lemon, lemongrass, mandarin, orange, patchouly, &amp; sandalwood.</p>
<p>Positive Ions</p>
<p>Positive ions are produced by electronic equipment and are typically found in man-made environments. They help stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, necessary for recovering, strengthening, and energizing. If you live in an environment with an over-abundance of negative ions, such as in the country or by the ocean, you may benefit greatly by diffusing positively ionizing oils.</p>
<p>Oils that ionize positively when diffused into the air include: clove, cypress, eucalyptus, frankincense, helichrysum, juniper, marjoram, melaleuca (quinquenervia), pine, ravensara, rosemary, thyme, &amp; ylang ylang.</p>
<p>Oils for the Season: Fall/Winter</p>
<p>Fall and winter connote an earthy, heavy scent, rich with the traditions and memories of the holidays.</p>
<p>Oils that work well during this time include: cinnamon bark, pine, cedar, cedarwood, fir, frankincense, juniper, myrrh, orange, sandalwood, vetiver, nutmeg, oregano, spruce, tangerine, &amp; thyme.</p>
<p>Oils for the Season: Spring/Summer</p>
<p>Spring and summer connote a light, airy scent, full of life, energy, and possibly a hint of romance!</p>
<p>Oils that work well during this time include: cardamom, citronella, coriander, eucalyptus, geranium, ginger, grapefruit, jasmine, lemon, peppermint, rose, spearmint, &amp; ylang ylang.</p>
<p>Recipe: Forest Air Freshening Blend</p>
<p>Mix together:</p>
<ul>
<li>Spruce &#8211; 50 drops</li>
<li>Lavender &#8211; 25 drops</li>
<li>Eucalyptus &#8211; 25 drops</li>
<li>Cedarwood &#8211; 20 drops</li>
</ul>
<p>Add blend to diffuser and diffuse for a forest fresh scent!</p>

<h5>The Raindrop Technique</h5>
<p>developed by D. Gary Young, N.D. and a Lakota medicine man almost two decades ago, uses a sequence of nine highly immune enhancing <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a>. They are dropped like rain from a height of about 6 inches onto the spine and then lightly massaged in using various hand to body techniques. This stimulates energy impulses and disperses the oils along the nervous system throughout the entire body.</p>
<p>We all carry immune system depleting viruses and bacteria. <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">Essential oils</a> applied to the spinal column are absorbed through the nerves that feed the entire body. Wonderfully soothing, nurturing and relaxing, the Raindrop Technique can work its benefits in the body for days, weeks or months. With <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> applied via the Raindrop Technique, the body can be brought into balance and the energy centers can be cleared and re-aligned. The Raindrop Technique also helps reduce spinal inflammation, creates an inhospitable environment for the viruses that hibernate along the spinal column, and may help to straighten any spinal curvatures. Although a session lasts about 45 minutes to an hour, the oils will continue to work in the body for a minimum of a week following the treatment.</p>
<p><img src="http://marketingscents.com/mscmedia/Nancy_picture.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="172" height="208" align="left" /></p>
<p><em>&#8220;Having Central Nervous System damage and spinal surgeries decades ago, I had continual pain and spasms throughout my body. In 1991, I was completely paralyzed for a few weeks from the damage. Two wonderful friends and healers used the Raindrop Technique on me, and for the first time since I was 25, I was able to get up pain free. That night I had no leg or back spasms. Three weeks later, I had the great fortune to learn this remarkable technique from Gary Young. This remarkable technique has kept my immune system strong, my body pain free and far stronger than I&#8217;ve been in years. At age 62, I can easily say it has reversed most of the damage to my body and my ability to help others has expanded tremendously.&#8221; Nancy Orlen Weber </em></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #9900cc; font-size: medium;">Oils used in Raindrop Technique:</span></strong><br />
<img src="http://marketingscents.com/mscmedia/msraindrop.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="68" height="355" align="right" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #9900cc;"><strong>Valor</strong></span> &#8211; A special blend from YLEO that works on electrical and energy alignment of the body. The key to using this blend of oils is patience. Once the frequencies begin to balance in these areas, then a structural alignment can occur. This is the most important oil used in this application.</p>
<p><span style="color: #9900cc;"><strong>Thyme</strong></span> &#8211; One of the most antiseptic <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a>. It contains thymol, which has been studied for its effect on gingivitis and plaque causing organisms in the mouth. It may be beneficial in helping to overcome fatigue and exhaustion. This essential oil can easily penetrate the body, and may help kill any bacteria that may be present. Supplies energy during times of stress and physical weakness.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #9900cc;">Oregano</span></strong> &#8211; Works similarly to thyme but is more aggressive and may help stimulate the immune system, balance metabolism and strengthen the vital centers of the body.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #9900cc;">Wintergreen</span></strong> &#8211; Contains the same active ingredient (methyl salicylate) as birch and is beneficial for massage associated with bone, muscle, and joint discomfort. Elevates and increases awareness on sensory system.</p>
<p><span style="color: #9900cc;"><strong>Cypress</strong></span> &#8211; One of the oils most used to support the circulatory system.</p>
<p><span style="color: #9900cc;"><strong>Peppermint</strong></span> &#8211; One of the oldest and most highly regarded herbs for soothing digestion. Peppermint has been found to improve mental accuracy, and sooth the respiratory system. Jean Valnet M.D., studied peppermint&#8217;s effect on the liver and respiratory systems. Other scientists have also researched peppermint&#8217;s role in affecting impaired taste and smell when inhaled. Dr. William N. Dember of the University of Cincinnati studied peppermint&#8217;s ability to directly affect the brain&#8217;s satiety center, which triggers a sense of fullness after meals.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #9900cc;">Basil</span></strong> &#8211; Can be relaxing to muscles, including smooth muscles (those not subject to our voluntary control, such as the heart and digestive system). It may also be used to soothe insect bites when applied topically. Beneficial for mental fatigue, basil may help stimulate and sharpen the sense of smell.</p>
<p><span style="color: #9900cc;"><strong>Marjoram</strong></span> &#8211; Used for calming the respiratory system and assists in relieving spasms and relaxing the muscles. It also assists in calming the nerves and is an antiseptic.</p>
<p><span style="color: #9900cc;"><strong>Aroma Siez </strong></span>- This special YLEO blend of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> may help relax, calm and relieve tight, sore, tired, and aching muscles resulting from sports injuries, fatigue and stress. Scott, feel free to share this message with someone that you know &#8211; that may benefit from strengthening their immune system. I&#8217;ll look forward to speaking with you soon.</p>

<p>* * *</p>
<p>1) <strong>OVERVIEW</strong>.</p>
<p>The discovery of pharmaceutical <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> around 80 years ago was touted as a panacea for humanity. While their use has clearly saved many lives, in recent years their overuse and misuse has taken a tremendous toll on the health of people everywhere, contributing to the creation of the now- infamous SuperBug.</p>
<p>According to Annie Wong-Beringer, Pharm.D., associate professor of clinical pharmacy at the USC School of Pharmacy, &#8220;Inappropriate antibiotic use may kill beneficial bacteria, opening the door for harmful bacteria to establish themselves in their place. It also may toughen up some bacteria by encouraging them to mutate and develop drug resistance.&#8221;</p>
<p>Drug resistance is considered to be one of the leading causes of deaths in the U.S. According to the National Institutes of Health, more than 70,000 die each year from it. These patients acquired the infection while they were in a hospital being treated for something else, according to the May 1997 documentary The Coming Plague. No known <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> can help these patients, and they die.</p>
<p>To make matters worse, experts estimate that physicians in the United States alone, write 50 million antibiotic prescriptions a year to treat disease actually caused by viruses, which <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> do not affect. Part of the reason may be patients&#8217; or caregivers&#8217; expectations. According to a CDC study, pediatricians prescribe <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> 65 percent of the time if they sense that parents expect them, but only 12 percent of the time if they sense parents do not expect them.</p>
<p>The western medical establishment is stymied. It&#8217;s looking for a solution through continued pharmaceutical research and the development of even more <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>&#8230;which created the problem in the first place. Duh! In addition, the big Pharma companies don&#8217;t even want to put money into antibiotic research, since it does not produce sustained profits. Think about it. They dump millions and millions of dollars into research to create the latest super antibiotic. It works for a short time and then becomes useless because the bacteria has mutated to save their own lives! (What&#8217;s a poor little bacterium to do?!)</p>
<p>If one wholly subscribes to the mainstream paradigm, the situation does indeed seem grim.</p>
<p>Enter our friends, therapeutic-grade <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a>!</p>
<p><a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">Essential oils</a> are naturally antibiotic and antiviral, as has been documented in research around the world and more recently in the U.S. If you browse through a classic book like &#8220;The Practice of Aromatherapy&#8221; first published 25 years ago by French medical doctor, Jean Valnet, you will find innumerable references to such research and to the efficacy of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> in all kinds of situations.</p>
<p>In 1997, studies conducted at Weber State University on <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=young-living" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with young living">Young Living</a>&#8217;s Thieves oil showed it to have a 99.96% success rate against airborne bacteria. The bacteria cultures were sprayed in an enclosed area, and Thieves essential oil blend was diffused for a given amount of time. After only 10 minutes of exposure, there was a reduction of 82% in Micrococcus luteus, 96% in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 44% in Staphylococcus aureus.</p>
<p>Below is a wealth of information on the antibiotic qualities of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> along with testimonials from <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=young-living" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with young living">Young Living</a> members and some essential oil recipes.</p>
<p>As <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=young-living" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with young living">Young Living</a> customers, we have in our hands a precious, delightful and effective way to strengthen our bodies and uplift our spirits, using the naturally powerful and effective aromatic resources of the healing plant kingdom.<br />

<p>2) <strong><a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">ANTIBIOTICS</a> VS. THERAPEUTIC GRADE ESSENTIAL </strong>OILS, by Joan Barice, MD</p>
<p>Speaking as a medical doctor, all physicians are aware of the increasing problem of resistance of bacteria to <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>. This is especially a problem with bacteria which cause life threatening infections. It is a result of overusing <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>, and of using them when they are not appropriate.</p>
<p>Overusing antibacterial soaps may also contribute to the problem. Prevention is best, of course. Allowing natural immunity to work when infections are self-limiting or not likely to cause serious consequences is also important, as is not treating viruses with <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> which won&#8217;t work anyway.</p>
<p><a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">Essential oils</a> can be very effective in treating many bacterial, viral and other infections, without causing resistance. The natural variation inthe chemical constituents in whole plants depending on climate, altitude, and other factors protects against this resistance, as do the many chemical constituents in whole oils as opposed to using one isolated &#8220;active&#8221; ingredient.</p>
<p>The problem is, most doctors are not trained in using oils, but are well trained in using potent <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>. If you are trying to enlighten a doctor, who generally has had no training on <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a>, I would suggest providing scientific references that give the available evidence of the effectiveness of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> in treating infections.</p>
<p>We are impressed by scientific research and usually will not listen to &#8220;anecdotal&#8221; evidence&#8221; that it worked for some people. Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt&#8217;s book Medical Aromatherapy, healing with <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a>, has been suggested and is a great reference. I have used it to give talks to medical doctors about <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a>.</p>
<p>Published articles on essential oil research, especially those in medical journals would be very good. Here are just a couple examples:</p>
<p>The EODR cites some research: 1998: Chao studied a blend of oils patterned after that used by 15th century thieves containing cinnamon, rosemary, clove, eucalyptus and lemon was diffused in a closed room in which bacteria cultures were sprayed. There was an 82% reduction in M. Luteus, a 96% reduction in P. Aeruginosa, and a 44% reduction in S. Aureusbioaerosols following 10 minutes of exposure.</p>
<p>Another study compared the effectiveness of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> to <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> &#8211; preliminary results showed cinnamon and oregano are comparable with Penicillin and Ampicillin in inhibitory activity against E. coli and Staph. aureus.</p>
<p>From a medical journal: TEA TREE OIL: THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE ANTIMICROBIAL HYPE Because of increasing resistance to <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>, interest in finding alternatives is strong. Tea tree oil (TTO) has been widely used in Australia for 80 years and is active against many micro-organisms.</p>
<p>A pilot study of 30 MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) carriers comparing routine mupirocin nasal ointment and triclosan skin wash with TTO ointment and wash, showed one third were completely cleared by TTO but only 13% by conventional treatment.</p>
<p>In another trial of TTO in the treatment of herpes cold sores, the oil was found to assist healing to a similar degree as topical 5% acyclovir. The oil has about 100 components but 7 terpenes and their related alcohols constitute 80 to 90% of the whole oil. Several of these components have been shown to reduce levels of Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. Terpenes are lipophilic and partition into the phospholipid layer of cell membranes, disrupting normal structure and function. Allen, P., LANCET 2001, 358 (9289) 1245 or: Janssen AM et al, 1987. Antimicrobial activity of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a>: 1976-1986 literature review. Planta Med 53 (5) 395-398.</p>
<p>This article is not in a medical journal, but still would be good to use as evidence: Antiviral and Antimicrobial Properties of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">Essential Oils</a>, by Dominique Baudoux, available on the internet at:</p>
<p>http://www.positivehealth.com/permit/Articles/Aromatherapy/baud55.htm</p>
<p>Kurt Schnaubelt&#8217;s book has a list of some basic research, including the following:</p>
<p>1960: Maruzella demonstrated antibacterial and antifungal effects of hundreds of aromatic compounds 1987: Deininger and Lembke demonstrated antiviral activity of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> and their isolated components 1973: Wagner and Sprinkmeyer in 1973 did research on a 170 year old blend of distilled oils still available in Germany. The effects of melissa and the other oils in Kosterfrau Melissengeist had been empirically known since Paracelsus (about 1500). They concluded that, with varying degrees of intensity, there was an inhibiting influence on all the bacteria tested, (Pneumococcus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphlococcus aureus haemolyticus, Neisseria catarrhalis, Streptococcus haemolyticus, Proteus vulgaris, Hemophilus influenza, Haemophilus pertussis, Candida albicans, Escherichia coli-Aerobacter group, various Corynnebacteria, and Listeria) and stated the large spectrum of this inhibitory action is as broad as or even greater than that of wide-spectrum <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>.</p>
<p>They also showed KMG has sedative and spasmolytic properties. 1995 Deininger et al. Demonstrated the broad spectrum of antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal activity of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> and their components as well as effectiveness for upper respiratory, gastrointestinal, and urogenital systems and for nervousness and arterial conditions.</p>
<p>Included many different bacterial species, aflatoxin forming fungi, quantitative proof of the antiviral effectiveness of different essential oil constituents with special attention to their cell toxic effects on human cells. Showed antiviral effects against herpes and adenoviruses with a broad spectrum of activity. Showed oils including Klosterfrau mellisengeist terpenes could be shown curatively and preventively in animal experiments after otherwise lethal herpes injections were administered, and induce a significant increase of immunoglobulins.</p>
<p>Schnaubelt lists even earlier basic science research showing it has been known a long time that <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> have antimicrobial effects:</p>
<p>1800-2002: Numerous animal and in vitro studies &#8211; evidence that all <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> are antiseptic, some more than others and that many are effective against certain fungi, bacteria and viruses. 1881: Koch demonstrated the bactericidal action of essence of turpentine against anthrax spores 1887: Chamberland demonstrated bactericidal activity of essences of oregano, cinnamon and clove on bacillus anthracis 1910: Martindale showed essential oil of oregano is the strongest plant-derived antiseptic known to date, 25 to 76 times more active than phenol on colobacillus.</p>
<p>Because of our training, because we are not trained about <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a>, and do not want to harm our patients by using something we do not know anything about, many doctors will insist on having still more research, and conclusive &#8220;evidence-based&#8221; research data before they will consider recommending oils for patients with an infection, and they will use <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> when they know them to be effective treatment for a particular infection.</p>
<p>I know from my own experience that <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> can be very effective, and will not hesitate to use them when they are the most appropriate treatment. If, on the other hand, I had a life threatening infection, and I do not have time to try something that will take longer, and there is a medical treatment that is known to be highly effective and safe, I would use it.<br />

<p>3) <strong>THE ANTIBIOTIC CRISIS</strong>, by Kurt Schnaubelt, Ph.D.</p>
<p>The following extract is taken from Medical Aromatherapy: Healing with <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">Essential Oils</a> by Kurt Schnaubelt, 1999, Frog, Ltd. North Atlantic Books Berkeley CA. This excerpt is from Chapter 5, pp. 72-74.</p>
<p>&#8220;There is conclusive evidence on the destructive consequences of the overuse of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> (and also how to avoid it). Antibiotic pressure on an organism can be a cofactor in immune deficiency conditions. <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">Antibiotics</a> were originally prescribed to fight bacterial diseases. But once these drugs became major moneymakers, their marketing took on a life of its own. Economic interests dictates finding more uses for a product that is already selling well, because sales increase without new development costs. Research to find additional uses for products is eagerly sponsored and eventually research and sales create a new reality. Unaware of the link to mass destruction of their immune systems, an unsuspecting generation upped its antibiotic intake.</p>
<p>&#8220;<a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">Antibiotics</a> taken by small children often create the diseases they aim to cure. Premature antibiotic use during the onset of a childhood disease will deprive the immune system of the opportunities to interact with the pathogen. An inactivated immune system does not learn to recognize intruding microorganisms, nor does it learn to build antibodies. The result? A child will quickly relapse with the same disease and the cycle repeats. A reoccurring disease becomes chronic and leads to an overall debilitation of the body.</p>
<p>&#8220;Another potentially even greater problem is the seemingly unstoppable advance of resistant bacteria. Bacteria, resistant to most or all of the known <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>, are menacing hospitals and their patients. The development of these &#8220;super germs&#8221; was brought on by the reckless use of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> in the meat industry as well as their over prescription by doctors. In his sanely radical book, Spontaneous Healing, (1995, Alfred Knoph) Andrew Weil comments: &#8216;Doctors must bear much of the responsibility for getting us into our growing predicament with aggressive bacteria; by over prescribing and mis-prescribing <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>, they have brought on the coming catastrophe.&#8217;</p>
<p>&#8220;<a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">Antibiotics</a> are still widely prescribed by doctors for viral conditions such as the common cold or the flu despite the fact that they are not effective in these cases. The depth of the conditioning becomes obvious when <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> display placebo effects.</p>
<p>&#8220;Workers in an office struggle with the flu for a week or two and, at some point, a few take <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> with the following results.</p>
<p>&#8220;Outcome 1: No obvious differences are observed between those who take the <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> and those who don&#8217;t. The flu comes and goes.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Outcome 2: Some of those who took <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> recover quickly. A typical belief is that the <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> ultimately cured the flu.</p>
<p>&#8220;Outcome 2 is extremely puzzling. Influenza is a viral infection and <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> are not effective against viruses. Still, these individuals claim that they worked. There are two possible explanations: 1. The immune status of some individuals is so compromised from <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> overuse or other causes that a flu virus will automatically trigger bacterial secondary infections of such severity that relief from an accompanying symptoms is perceived as the <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> being effective against the flu itself. 2. Our deep conditioning to believe in the effectiveness of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> triggers improvement. The <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> were a placebo!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> crisis is an example of the fact that commerce is not concerned about the consequences it creates for human life. All aspects of modern existence are penetrated by the goal to maximize profits. Sadly, this has been most successful in medicine.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Approximately two decades ago the projections for worldwide sales of pharmaceuticals for the year 2000 were estimated to reach about $250 billion. This number was a gross under- estimation; the health -care industry currently grosses almost a thousand billion dollars and the biggest-selling pharmaceutical drugs each generate one billion dollars annually in the United States alone. Potential pharmacological breakthroughs generate corresponding changes in stock prices and make headlines in the business sections. The profit motive permeates the medical world completely.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;As a result, diseases are essentially classified according to the availability of drugs, which are the only form of therapy that can be produced on an industrial scale. The drug companies have an ideal partner in scientific medicine, which ignores (for the most part) social and psychological causes of disease. The mechanic &#8220;physician&#8221; is offered a tool that can be reproduced without limit.&#8221;<br />

<p>4) <strong>TREATING THE FLU WITH ANTI-MICROBIAL <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=young-living" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with young living">YOUNG LIVING</a> OIL FORMULA</strong> by Terry S. Friedmann, M.D., A.B.H.M.</p>
<p>The flu season is upon us and this one is a doozie. It came early here in Colorado and we have already had some deaths. Obviously the virus has mutated and the vaccine doesn&#8217;t work very well. So remember my antimicrobial formula [that I recommend] for my patients. Place in a &#8220;00&#8243; capsule the following:</p>
<p>12 drops of Thieves<br />
6 drops of oregano<br />
2 drops of frankincense</p>
<p>At the first sign of the flu, take one capsule every four hours for three days and then one capsule every eight hours for four to six days.</p>
<p>This is powerful, so don&#8217;t use it for just a cold or as a preventative. This formula should not be used on children under 12 years of age or on pregnant wormen. Ages 12-17 years use one half of the above formula.<br />

<p>Chronic Sinus Infection:</p>
<p>I had been living with a &#8220;stuffy nose&#8221; for probably about 20 years when I found the oils. What I was really dealing with was a combination of food allergies and environmental allergies. (confirmed by doctor&#8217;s tests) This caused repeated acute sinus infections, often recurring several times a year, as well as chronic sinusitis. I had two sinus surgeries, but they didn&#8217;t really help much in the long run. A Kleenex box was my constant companion. (People used to joke with me that I should buy stock in the Kleenex company)</p>
<p>Since I found the oils (soon 3 years ago) I have not once taken <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>, and I used to have to resort to it all the time.</p>
<p>Lately I have not even had the beginnings of a sinus infection, but earlier, when I could feel one coming on, what I did was heat up a big pot of water. Then I would take a big towel and lean over the pot and cover my head, as I put oils in, one drop at a time &#8211; then breathe deeply &#8211; then another drop and so on.</p>
<p>I just looked in the EODR. Collected all the oils and blends that I had that were listed in the section for sinus infection, and went through them one by one. I would repeat this daily, until my nose cleared. This was the first time ever that I did not have to resort to <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> &#8211; and I have not had a full blown sinus infection since I started using the oils.</p>
<p>As for clearing the allergies, for me it was a matter of avoiding the foods that caused them (mainly dairy) and also taking enzymes every day and with every meal, as well as taking MSM on a regular basis. Enzymes &amp; MSM truly do make a big difference in staying well.</p>

<p>I have been so ill for the last three years. Each time I would get a sinus infection, it would move down into my lungs and I would end up with horrible asthma attacks. I would be put on a double round of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> and prednisone to help get the episode under control. Then within a few weeks I would have another infection and go through this whole routine again using a different antibiotic. This last time there was no time between coming off of the antibiotic and having the infection cropping up again I was scared to death. The doctors had uses every antibiotic on the market and I was still sicker than sick. I was out of luck with conventional medicine. Thank God some one posted Gary Young&#8217;s receipe for antibiotic resistant oils. I took the oils internally for three days and my infection was gone!!!! I also used several strong anti-viral oils on my back with a hot wet towel at night for 5 nights. No more coughing up horrible yellow-green mucus. No more terrible sinus pain. No more asthma. By the second day of taking the oils I stopped taking the <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> that the doctor had prescribed for me. I know now that I won&#8217;t be needing conventional antibiotic medications anymore.</p>

<p>H-Plyori:</p>
<p>In 1994 after not being ill a day in my life except for occasional cold and bout with the flu I almost died due an internal bleed from my duodenum. Unbeknowns to me I had a bacteria in my stomach by the name of heliobacter pylori which caused an ulcerative rupture in my duodenum. I required a blood transfusion of 3 pints to replace the lost blood. I was then given 2 <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> at the same time to rid me of the bacteria. Four weeks after completing this protocol it was evident that it did not work as I almost had another bleed. It was then suggested by my specialist that I take a regimen of 8 different drugs at the same time for 21 days with no guarantees for success. I refused because I was told to expect substantial side effects and there was another drug I could take instead called ranitidine (zantac), an acid blocker that would prevent the bleeds although it would not get rid of the bacteria. I chose this route reluctantly. Later I found a natural product containing MSM, although not quite the quality formulation of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=young-living" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with young living">Young Living</a>&#8217;s Sulphurzme which worked similarly to reduce acid. Then in Oct./99 I read about a natural antibiotic protocol recommended by Dr. Gary Young. It involved using the <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> of Lemon, Mountain Savory, and Oregano together and internally. I decided to try it and started very slowly using only a fraction of what Dr. Young recommended and within 4 days I knew the bacteria was history. To this day (March 23/00) I have not had any stomach challenges which had previously caused me discomfort on a daily basis for almost 5 years.</p>

=============================</p>
<p><strong>THE FORMULA</strong></p>
<p>Gary Young gave us this recipe as the most powerful natural antibiotic:</p>
<p>10 drops lemon;<br />
8 drops mountain savory;<br />
3 drops oregano.</p>
<p>Put in capsule and take 1-3 time a day.<br />
* * *</p>
<p>For H-Plyori:</p>
<p>Para-Free and Di-Tone did it for me. I had a bad case, but the last time they stuck a tube down to my stomach, it was all gone. So were the polyps on the other end &#8212; surprising because the time before, I had nine.</p>
<p>The medical treatment for H-Pylori, by the way, is Biaxin (a horrible, strong antibiotic that made me too sick to continue taking it), along with Prevocid or Prilosec (types of antacids).</p>

<p>Kidney Infection:</p>
<p>This week my Grandmother rebounded very quickly from a kidney infection. We used juvaflex and cypress over her kidneys along with hot compresses three times a day. Also on her feet. I also massaged various oils (frankincense, lavender , orthosport massage oil) on her back and legs to help with her soreness from being in bed for several days. These oils are magnificent!</p>

<p>Urinary Tract Infections:</p>
<p>My Aunt has chronic UTI&#8217;s as in <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> every four weeks. This has been going on for a very long time. She started using Inspiration, rubbing the oils over the bladder area, the lower abdomen, and also on the bottom of the feet, and around the ankles. Within two days the pain was gone. Within two weeks she had a checkup with her Dr. and he said her urine specimen was the best he has ever had from her.</p>

<p>I had a urinary tract infection and decided to use my <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=young-living" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with young living">Young Living</a> <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">Essential Oils</a> instead of going to the Doctor. I used 3-4 drops of Mountain Savory with a few drops of massage oil base and massaged this on my abdomen just above the pubic bone. I did this 2 times daily for three days. I also took Alkalime 2 times daily for three days. The symptoms were gone in 1 1/2 days, but I contined for three days to be sure I had it totally cleared up. I also drank lots of water. This was a terrific solution to the infection. I checked my medical records and prior to knowing about and using <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> (about 5 years ago), I had a UTI and of course went to the Doctor. I was put on <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>. A week later I had a yeast infection because the antibiotic wiped out all the good flora in my body, so the yeast took over. Then a month later the UTI was back and I had another round of <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>. So <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=essential-oils" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with Essential Oils">essential oils</a> are a great solution for clearing up this problem.</p>

<p>Enlarged Tonsils &amp; Adenoids:</p>
<p>I have a grandson who was born with enlarged tonsils and adenoids. The Doctor didn&#8217;t want to remove them and kept feeding him antibotic and decongestants. About 3 years ago, Devin was sick with tonsillitis again. I used oregano diluted 5/1 and rubbed all over his neck and throat, around ears and on sinus areas. Also on his feet. I did this a couple of times daily for about 3 weeks. His infection was gone in a few days but for some reason I continued to apply it. He did not have another bout of tonsilitis for 6 months, I used the same oil on him again for 3 weeks. It has now been 2 1/2 years and Devin doesn&#8217;t have tonsillitis anymore. Tonsils are still slightly enlarged but not nearly what they were. He still gets an occasional cold. We use Melrose or R.C. or Raven.</p>

<p>Strep:</p>
<p>My 15 year old son just got over strep throat and &#8220;mono sites in his blood&#8221; according to the doctors diagnosis. I refused to fill the antibiotic rx he gave me but instead gave my son 12 drops thieves, 6 oregano, 2 frankincense in the 00 caps 3 times a day, rubbed thieves on his throat and made a spray of thieves and distilled water to spray down his throat&#8230;and also rubbed thyme, oregano and thieves on his feet. After just a day and a half his pus balls were gone&#8230;and his throat was feeling better! I also ordered the Immunetune caps and immupower oil and gave that to him once a day along with lots of water&#8230;he is back to school and doing great! We also make a big deal out of taking the NingXia Red Juice with dinner&#8230;put it into stemwear glasses and my teens love it!</p>

<p>Ear Infection:</p>
<p>My son came home from school yesterday complaining of a very sore ear, thought I could wait till today to take him to the doctor to have my suspicion that he had an ear infection, and put him to bed later that night, he woke up at 12 midnight, crying and complaining of a very sore ear, grabbed my essential 7 package and the desk reference and got to work, since I only have the E 7, I used only the oils it mentioned, I did as was suggested, rubbing a small amount of oil on my palm and placing it in the outside of the inner ear, and repeating with the other oils (Lavender, Lemon, Peppermint, and Purification), and then used vegetable oil to dilute it, placed some oils with the vegetable oil on a cotton ball and had him hold it on his ear. Then I rubbed the same oils on the feet at the proper places and then held him and talked to him, he fell asleep, still complaining about his sore ear, he woke me up this morning, saying &#8220;Mommy, my ear is all better, can I go to school?!&#8221; I love these oils.</p>

<p>My 85-year old mother had an ear infection so went to her ear physician. He gave her antibiotic eardrops to put in her ear. The eardrops made her ear worse so back she went to the physician a couple of days later and received a second prescription. This time there was a slight improvement, but she kept having mild pains in her ear for a couple of weeks so she was about to go back for a third visit.</p>
<p>I had her use oregano and clove oils on the vitaflex points under her two little toes and I put some V-6 oil and a drop of Thieves on a cotton ball which she rested in her ear opening. The next day her ear felt fine. I had her repeat the regimen for 5 days and she&#8217;s been fine since./</p>

<p>Infections:/</p>
<p>I loaned my Melrose to a friend of mine who is a nurse and had a bad infection in her big toe. She had tried a couple of different <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a> (oral) and salves of various types and had seen 3 different doctors. Surgery had been recommended as the next step but I caught her in time and told her to apply Melrose a few times a day. That was on a Saturday. On Tuesday she called all excited to say the infection was almost gone. By Friday, she said her toe was almost glowing with new &#8220;baby&#8221; skin!</p>

<p>Abscessed Root Canal:</p>
<p>My experience with YLEO and dental was an abscessed root canal, of course I was written a script for <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>&#8230;&#8230;..which is still in the cupboard. I took a capsule of oregano ( for the infection ) one of geranium ( for inflammation) followed up every four hours repeat topping each capsule off with a couple drops of Helichrysum or lemon. I did this the first day, the second day I did it every 6 hours&#8230;&#8230;.the third day I was fine swelling was gone, pain was gone. I Took the &#8216;caps&#8217; for another day or so just to make sure, so all together three days , four at the most compared to 7 on <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>., and the bonus is &#8216;no yeast infection&#8217; which I always got upon taking <a href="http://younglivingscents.com/?tag=antibiotics" class="st_tag internal_tag"  title="Posts tagged with antibiotics">antibiotics</a>.</p>
