Some causes of many diseases:

Environmental Toxins are introduced to body cells through the air we breathe (air pollution), through the skin (lotions, soaps, home cleansers) and in foods (chemical fertilizers, insecticides).  Young Living Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils detoxify the system and re-oxygenate the cells.

Acidity caused by foods especially coffee and soft drinks.  NingXia Red(tm)  enters the small intestine as an alkaline, reducing acidity in the digestive track and restoring the system to a more natural, balanced pH, as well as being one of the most effective antioxidants on the market today.

Immune System Compromise uses of antibiotics, the degradation of food sources, as well as certain diseases causes the natural immune system to be compromised.  Life 5(tm)  and Inner Defense (tm) in addition to use of therapeutic grade essential oils help to restore the body's natural immune system to help prevent disease naturally.

Poor Diet.  The Standard American Diet (SAD) consists of processed foods with a high-fat, and low nutritional value.   Most over-the-counter supplements are difficult for the body to absorb and are of little value to generating a health response.  Therapeutic grade essential oils aid absorption of nutrients.

Lack of Exercise.  It has been established that exercise is key to maintaining a healthy body.

Environmental Toxins.  Petrochemical are in the air (gas fumes), in lotions  and soaps, shampoos, and detergents (propylene glycol). Sodium Lauryl Sulfate  (SLS) is found in toothpaste, detergents, shampoos, soaps and other products.  Alcohol is found in mouthwash and cleaning products.  Diethanolamine DEA has linked to cancer and is found in shampoos and soaps.  Talc has been linked to fallopian tube fibrosis.  Aluminum (found in antiperspirants) has been linked to Alzheimer's.  These ingredients have been linked to disease and cancer. (See below for specific article references.*)

Chronic low-grade inflammation, usually found in the digestive system causes lack of nutrient absorption and causes many health problems.

Dietary toxins such as insecticides and chemical fertilizers weaken the body's natural ability to prevent disease.  These toxins are found in cells years after their use has been banned by governmental agencies.

Emotional trauma and stress weaken the body's immune system.

Poor oxygenation.  For all the causes listed above, cells loose their ability to carry oxygen to the system.  Young Living Essential Oils introduce more oxygen to the cells as well as effecting cellular repair.

*Diethanolamine (DEA) when applied to the skin, resulted in clear evidence of carcinogenic activity.  "Diethanolamine was selected for evaluation because its large-scale production and pattern of use" - U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Toxicology Program.  NTP TR 478.  This 2 year study concluded in 1977.

*Propylene Glycol: Implicated in contact dermatitis, kidney damage and liver abnormalities; ca inhibit skin cell growth in human tests and can damage cell membranes causing rashes, dry skin and damage - Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS).   A published clinical review showed propylene glycol causes a significant number of reactions and was a primary irritant to the skin eve in low levels of concentrations.  - The American Academy of Dermatologists, Inc. Jan. 1991.

*Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) or Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) is routinely used in clinical studies to irritate skin tissue, corrodes hair follicles and impairs the ability to grow hair, enters and maintains residual levels in the heart, liver,  lungs and brain from skin contact, can damage the immune system, cause inflammation of the skin. - Journal of American College of Technology, Vol. 2, No. 7, 1983.

*Talc  (found in powders and condoms)...may result in fallopian tube fibrosis with resultant infertility. - Journal of the American Medical Association March 15, 1995.

*Aluminum - "There is a suspected link between Alzheimer's disease and the toxicity of aluminum...autopsies have found high concentrations of the metal in the brain of people who had suffered from the disease." - Public Health Reports, Nov-Dec 993 v108 n6 p798(2).
