How to tell the REAL Essential Oils vs Synthetic

Based on thirty-years of Plant Based-Complementary Alternative Medicine(PB-CAM) Research, Education & Practice

When it comes to Medicinal Materials, it makes sense to look at Plant Essential Oils and Herbs as Medicine since these are the substances the world has used and continues to use in its struggle to survive. Of course this is no revelation for those of us who have relied on Plant Medicine for our Healthcare and Maintenance. I have been fortunate to enjoy from early life, the health benefits of Plant Medicine for almost, 70 years of life on Earth and have come to the conclusion, that Mainstream Medicine save life's, but Plant Medicine can very effectively, maintain our HEALTH.

When looking at any plant material, especially "essential oils" one needs to recognized the many levels of practice and separate the "Business Practice" from the Health Practice, two very different concepts, working with different quality materials, achieving different results.

HOW TO TELL THE REAL ESSENTIAL OILS will aid in choosing the right medicinal material...

Let’s begin by separating “Aromatherapy Essential Oils” from the Medicinal Grade Plant Essential Oils use in the Plant Based-CAM Practice. You are welcome to view the YouTube video we published in 2008. We recorded this video when we realized that the majority of the essential oils sold as “100% pure” were oily whereas Plant Essential Oils are not. Many of these “aromatherapy oils" also did not keep their fragrance and all had a shelf life of about 1-2 years again unlike the Plant Essential Oils we use in our practice. We also realized that these “Essential Oils” were being marketed to people with limited knowledge of their use and safety.

It is good to know that the Term “Essential Oil” is interchangeable with organic and inorganic chemistry. In many cases the term “100% Essential Oil” could very well be 100% synthetic and it may be unwise to depend upon information found on a label if you are going to practice Plant Based Health.

As you continue to smell Plant Essential Oils you will develop your senses. Your experience will guide you and you will be able to detect the not so real essential oils. Until then you may refer to the following information to help you identify the real Plant Essential Oils and so that you don’t have to depend on what a label may say or imply.

Factual information based on thirty years of PB-CAM Research, Education & Practice;
 Plant Essential Oils are not oily
 They can be left open without evaporation/oxidation
 They have a shelf life of 25 plus years
 Due to the aromatic alcohols and fermentation they become better with time (just like wines)
 Most of them can be placed directly on skin without any negative side effects
 They can be combined in a synergy (2 or more oils with the same properties) and thus benefit from the Law of Synergy which states that the therapeutic properties of each Plant Essential Oil multiplies produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects.
