The aromatherapy industry has really stepped into the limelight
in the last decade. Aromatherapy started as an introduction of the therapeutic usage
of essential oils but has since evolved into the synthetic world of misinformation and
adulteration of God's oils for financial gain. It would be hard to find an aromatherapy-
labeled product that did not contain adulterated oils. This is what makes Young Living
“Therapeutic-Grade™ Essential Oils o important, Pure essential ollsare some ofnature’s
most powerful therapeutic substances available, if only we could get that message to
the millions of people who are looking for therapeutic benefits.
Most people today are unaware of the extensive
documentation of the use of essential oils and their
ancient history of healing and anointing. Many
references about essential oils can be found in Judeo-
Christian religious texts, and records show that at one
time they were used to treat virtually every ailment
known to man. Frankincense, myrth, lotus, cedarwood,
and sandalwood oils are some of the ols that were widely
used in ancient Egyptian purification and embalming
rituals, Oils like cinnamon, clove, and lemon were
highly valued as antiseptics hundreds of years before the
development of today's laboratory-developed medicines.
With the advancement of over-the-counter and pre~
scription drugs during the last century, the knowledge
of natural therapeutic substances, especially essential
oils, has been lost to the general public. Only two de-
cades ago in the United States did essential oils begin to
gain a place on the shelves in the health food stores and
perfume shops
Many researchers and health-care professionals have
‘come to discover that theres fascinating broad spectrum
of therapeutic action in their healing potential. As we
have opened the pages of history, we have discovered
that in their pure state, essential oils are some of the
‘most concentrated natural extracts known, exhibiting
significant and immediate antiviral, anti-inflammatory,
anti-depressive, antibacterial, and hormone-balancing.
effects as well as having calming, sedating, uplifting, and
positive emotion-stimulating properties.
In clinical practice, essential oils have been shown to
have a profound influence on the central nervous system,
helping to reduce or eliminate pain and release muscle
tension. The benefits of essential oils are numerous, and
years of study are required to learn about the complexity
of essential oil chemical constituents.
Even when pure essential oils were available, litle was
known about their therapeutic effects. The perfume
industry was the greatest purchaser of pure oils and,
unfortunately, adulterated them for the perfection and
consistency of the aroma. It quickly became evident
that chemical components were easier and cheaper to
produce in the laboratory, which made it possible to
increase the volume, putting millions of more dollars in
the coffers of the manufacturers.

‘Today we find synthetic essential oil ingredients in
soaps, cleaning agents, casmetics, skin care, food, and
flavoring, as well as, sadly, in the industry of health and
‘wellness. When the oils ae extended and adulterated for
commercial use, their therapeutic biochemical structure
is destroyed, making them useful only as perfume for
scentingall types of products and as lavoring compounds.
On the other hand, the chemical structure of a pure
II membranes, travel
essential oil ean rapidly penetrate
throughout the body, and enhance cellular function. For
health professionals who have used pure, therapeutic-
grade essential oils on patients, itis very clear that there
is a powerful life force inherent in these substances,
which gives them an unmatched ability to interact with
cells in the human body.
Many people believe that essential oils are God's
‘medicine for mankind and will provide critical medical
solutions in the future. Essential oils could very well
be the missing link of modern health care, bringing
allopathic and holistic practices together for optimal
health in the twenty-first century.Acknowledgments
When D. Gary Young brought back 13 essential oils
from Europe in 1985, virtually no written information
was available about their usage and application. ‘The
essential oils that were sold in a few heath food and
novelty stores were perfume grade with no suggested
therapeutic usage.
“This opened the door and led the way to a new and
‘exciting frontier that propelled Gary into the research of |
an ancient knowledge that had been lost to the synthetic
production of perfumes and food flavorings. His work
began a resurgence of healing modalities from out of the
dust of history. He was ridiculed and laughed at for his
ideas about therapeutic usage, even though the medical
‘world was beginning to awaken in Europe.
He has spent decades conducting clinical research
‘on the ability of essential oils to combat disease and
improve health. He has also developed new methods
of application from which thousands of people have
benefited, especialy his integration of therapeutic-grade
‘essential oils with dietary supplements and personal care
products. In our research, we have found no evidence
of anyone formulating these types of quality products
with essential oils in North America prior co those
formulated by Gary Young.
Gary grew up learning to love and work the lind
asa farmer and rancher in Maho, which made it easy
for him to sce the vision of developing his own farms.
“That vision soon became reality as he purchased his ist
farm in 1992. His passion for extracting God's healing
oils from Mother Natures bounty made him one of the
world’s leading growers of aromatic herbs and plants for
the distillation of essential oils
With seven privately owned distillation operations and
‘over 5,000 acres of purchased land under cultivation in
the Utah, Idaho, France, and Ecuador and numerous
partnerships and contract growers stretching to the
far corners of the world, he has set new standards for
excellence for the production of therapeutic-grade
essential oils in today’s modern world.
Gary's long experience asa grower, distiller, researcher,
and alternative cate practitioner not only gives him
unsurpassed insight into essential oils but also makes
hhim an ideal lecturer and educator on the therapeutic
properties of essential oils and their applications. He
is sought after by thousands of people to share his
knowledge on the powerful potential of essential oils
and on how to produce the highest quality therapeutic-
grade essential oils.
The dedication to his belief, his knowing, brought
about the research and discovery that we have compiled
into this publication. His emendous contribution
to this new frontier of medicine is immeasurable
“The material contained in this book is compiled
from his research, lectures, seminars, workshops, and
scientific publications as well as from the work of other
practitioners and physicians who are at the forefront
of understanding the therapeutic and clinical potential
of essential oils to maintain physical and emotional
wellness as well as aid in alleviating physical, emotional,
and spiritual dysfunction,
To these researchers, the publisher is deeply indebted
to be able to bring this information to all those in search
of natural healing modalities found in the world of
essential oils
