| If you are new to therapeutic grade essential oils, or a seasoned professional, this is the perfect way to immerse yourself in the energizing effects the the Young Living line can deliver. This is one of the nicest, most cost-saving, and health enhancing gifts you could ever give yourself and anyone you know. Take a quick look at what's inside waiting for you... Lavender 5 ml. bottle (Lavandula angustifolia) is the most versatile of all essential oils. Therapeutic-grade lavender has been highly regarded for the skin. The French scientist Rene Gattefosse was the first to discover these properties when he severely burned his hands in a laboratory explosion. Lavender has also been clinically evaluated for its relaxing effects. It may be used to cleanse cuts, bruises, and skin irritations. The fragrance is calming, relaxing, and balancing -- physically and emotionally. Lavender has an approximate ORAC of 3,669 (TE/L). TE/L is expressed as micromole Trolox equivalent per liter.* | |  | |

| Peppermint 5 ml. bottle (Mentha piperita) is one of the oldest and most highly regarded herbs for soothing digestion. Jean Valnet, M.D., studied peppermint's effect on the liver and respiratory systems. Other scientists have also researched peppermint's role in improving taste and smell when inhaled. Dr. William N. Dember of the University of Cincinnati studied peppermint's ability to improve concentration and mental accuracy. Alan Hirsch, M.D., studied peppermint's ability to directly affect the brain's satiety center, which triggers a sensation of fullness after meals. Peppermint has an approximate ORAC of 373,455 (TE/L). TE/L is expressed as micromole Trolox equivalent per liter.* Lemon 5 ml. bottle (Citrus limon) contains 68 percent d-limonene, a powerful antioxidant may be beneficial for the skin and lymph system. It may serve as an insect repellent and may be beneficial for the skin and lymph system. Lemon has an approximate ORAC of 6,619 (TE/L). TE/L is expressed as micromole Trolox equivalent per liter.* Peace & Calming 5 ml. bottle — Exclusive blend Peace & Calming is a gentle, fragrant blend specially designed for diffusing. It promotes relaxation and a deep sense of peace, helping to calm tensions and uplift spirits. When massaged on the bottoms of the feet, it can be a wonderful prelude to a peaceful night's rest. Peace & Calming may be especially calming and comforting to young children after an overactive and stressful day.* Joy 5 ml. bottle — Exclusive blend Joy is an exotic, luxurious blend that produces an uplifting magnetic energy and brings joy to the heart. When worn as cologne or perfume, Joy exudes an alluring and irresistible fragrance that inspires romance and togetherness. When diffused, it can be refreshing and uplifting.* Purification 5 ml. bottle — Exclusive blend Purification is a blend that, when diffused, helps to purify and cleanse the air and neutralize mildew, cigarette smoke, and disagreeable odors. When applied directly to the skin, Purification may be used to cleanse and soothe insect bites, cuts and scrapes.* PanAway 5 ml. bottle — Exclusive blend PanAway was created by Gary Young following an injury that severely tore the ligaments in his leg. It supports the circulatory system, along with muscles and joints, and also aids in maintaining normal cellular function Better health with Essential Oils Chauncey Penfold 337-856-9461 | ||||

Introductory Kit Essential 7
Saturday, July 9, 2011
This is what is being sold on the market!
Some people's experiences with cheap Lavender:
1. One lady's daughter had a pretty good sunburn. The mother put lavender on her because she heard it was soothing for burns and it intensified the burns to 3rd degree burns. Well guess what, she sued Young Living. Then the truth came out that she had bought it from a health food store. It was not Young Living's. Needless to say, she lost the case.
2. Yesterday a co-worker got mixed up with a large grinder here at work. It peeled the skin off three of his fingers; one finger nail was ground clear through. I called Delene (my wife) and had her bring the lavender over. He wasn't sure he wanted to put it on because it might burn. I told him, that if anything, it would take the burn out of the burn. We applied it and it really helped. The pain was mostly gone and the stiffness went out of it. I applied the lavender about once an hour and as he was going home offered him the bottle. His response was, that's ok, we have some at home. I explained to him about the training I had, and how we were warned about some of the "cheap" lavenders and what they did to burns. He assured me that he had "good" stuff and left.
This morning, as soon as he got here, he looked me up. Seems like his "lavender" isn't the good stuff. He said that when he put it on, it about set his hand on fire.
He has to fly out to Washington State tomorrow and says he is going to stop at the farm on the way and get some "good" lavender. Keith
3. One woman, who had heard of the ability of lavender oil to sooth burns, used lavender oil from a local health food store when she spilled boiling water on her arm. The pain intensified and the burn worsened, so she later complained that lavender oil was worthless for soothing burns. When her "lavender" oil was analyzed, it turned out to be lavendin, a hybrid lavender that is chemically very different from pure Lavendula Angustifolia. Lavendin contains high levels of camphor (12-18%) and can itself burn the skin, which intensified her burn. The Lavendula Angustifolia contains virtually no camphor and has a burn soothing agent which is not found in lavendin.
I hope this helps to explain the importance of having pure therapeutic grade essential oil for your family because you could get a great reaction--one that you do not want.
Also, 85% peppermint is made up of corn mint, not true peppermint. Perfumeries and flavoring companies were there long before Aromatherapy came along. This is why it is so important to have knowledge so you can teach others.
Primrose said that they don't like to call it adulterated. Instead, they call it "adjusted". When she goes and gets the oils for Gary, she goes right to the source and makes sure it is the best, at Young Living request, and if it's not the best, she WILL NOT buy it. She will not look at the GC's and take their word for it. She said she needs to know how it is grown, distilled, etc. She said if other companies were like Young Living, it would "bring aromatherapy forward".
Dr. Minke said that a lady had used chamomile on her son and it burnt his skin. Chamomile? It's very soothing. She had bought $300 worth of oils from the health food store, and when Dr. Minke gave her Young Living oil she didn't use them again after she learned the difference from Dr. Minke. In the health food store you can buy oil for the quarter of the cost of Young Living Therapeutic Grade oil (YLTG)--the wonders of chemistry.
Dr. Stewart said that he gave a naturopath some Valor and he said, I've already tried that and he got mad and told him to get out. Dr. Stewart gave him the bottle anyway and left. Later he called Dr. Stewart and said that he had put the Valor on a patient, left the room, came back to adjust him, and he had already adjusted. He signed up.
Gary showed us that Myrrh GC. The sample was marked as therapeutic grade
Components
Diethyl Phalate 68.8%
Curzerenone 5.2%
Remarks: This is not the essential oil of myrrh.
Synthetic Birch sample
Methyl Salicylate 100.0%------92.0---99.8
Alpha-Pinene-------0 Trace 0.15
a-pinene-----0 trace 0.03
Eucalyptol-----0 trace 0.3
Linalol---0 trace 0.1
ethyl saluylate----0 trace 4.0
Remarks: Not a natural product
These are some of the areas Gary has traveled to to make sure we have the best. This is the frankincense trail that Gary has made into a movie, which was shown at the 2010 convention. The documentation of the Frankincense trail has never been done before. A National Geographic photographer saw all of Gary's camels and asked how he got all those camels because he had been trying for 25 years and couldn't get them. Gary had 30 camels, packs and saddles in three hours. These are just a few pictures Gary had taken on the Frankincense Trail.

l Lavender Essential Oil
Product Summary
Lavender essential oil is known as the most popular
and versatile essential oil. It is steam distilled
from Lavandula angustifolia, a perennial, busy
shrub with a flowery top. The many properties of
lavender essential oil contribute to a vast range
of usage. It is highly regarded as an antiseptic,
anti-inflammatory, for skin care, or as a lovely
fragrance.
Product Story
Traditionally used to treat burns, lavender is one
of history’s most celebrated and versatile essential
oils. In ancient Greece, Pedanius Dioscorides,

Following a laboratory explosion that severely
burned his arm, a French scientist named Rene
Gattefosse was the first modern scientist to
document lavender’s ability to promote tissue
regeneration.
Today, we use lavender as a tea, to dress wounds,
to induce sleep, ease depression, and reduce
stress. Lavender oil is one of the safest essential
oils and can be used in full strength on the skin.
The benefits of lavender essential oil are limitless.
As we continue to study lavender, additional usage
and efficacy is identified.

Part 15: Finding Pure Essential Oils
January 27, 2011
Dr. Hervé Casabianca training Gary in new GC-MS techniques
Can different distillation practices change the oil quality? Yes!
Commercial distilleries push process pressure over 5 pounds and up to 300 degrees Fahrenheit, which fractures the molecules. This speeds up the extraction process, and yet they are still able to capture the top notes for the perfume industry. Their distilling time can be no more than 40 minutes.
Our distillation of lavender essential oil takes a minimum of 1 hour. When the commercial distilleries extract only for the purpose of the aroma such as for the perfumers, once the larger molecules come out, which are generally the fragrance compounds, the boiler is shut off because it burns 25 to 38 gallons of diesel fuel per hour at 5.50 Euros, which equals $7.36 a gallon, to retrieve maybe 1 or 2 percent more oil.
I have found after distilling oils on five continents around the world, above and below the equator, that most of the time the therapeutic molecules are some of the last molecules to come out, which may take 1½ to 3 hours more. For example, in our distillery in Spain, we use full-agitation to distill frankincense essential oil for 12 hours minimum. In Salalah, we use partial agitation and distill frankincense for 16 hours.
Agitation is a process that grinds the resin into coarse powder. It is similar to the agitation of the old-time washing machine, where the paddles move back and forth, beating the clothes. In this case, the paddles break down the resin, which is very gummy and will easily stick together, impeding the release of the oil. For this reason, the constant agitation is important to keep the powder from clumping at the bottom of the cooker. This agitation also ensures greater steam saturation for greater essential oil extraction as the steam travels up through the powdered resin.
Incensole acetate, which is a very important compound found in frankincense resin, only shows up after 11 hours of distilling with agitation and 15 hours without agitation. Incensole acetate is considered a major constituent, which is sought after to support many body functions. It works well as a companion to the boswellic acids in its medicinal attributes.
To be continued . . .
