When I started my journey into essentials oils I researched every company I could to find the best one out there on the market. I knew if I was going use these oils for myself, my family and recommend them to my patients they needed to be of the highest quality. Unfortunately, what I learned was, not all oils are created equally. For an oil to be considered “100% therapeutic grade” they only have to have 5% of the oil in the bottle. Also, only 3% of the oil companies on the market are truly 100% therapeutic grade.

After many months of research, I found a company called Young Living. The company was founded in 1994 by Gary Young and is the oldest essential oil company on the market today. Young Living takes such pride in their product that they developed the Seed to Seal guarantee. Seed to Seal is a set of meticulous quality control steps which starts with the seed and follows through until the oil is sealed in the bottle. This guarantee means they oversee every part of the process. This process also includes 3rd party testing to further ensure their product is of the highest quality and meets Young Living standards.

Young Living owns farms around the world. They own 8 and have several partner farms. This company stands so firm on their foundation and their products that they go above and beyond US FDA organic certification. They do this by hand weeding and controlling pests with other essential oils. Pretty amazing no chemicals are ever used! If you are still a skeptic and want to see for yourself, you are able to walk on any farm anywhere in the world and see the whole process. There is no other company that offers this full transparency!!
