Best Essential Oils Brand for Homesteaders | 10 Reasons Why

[@OurGabledHome]

Do you use essential oils? What is your favorite essential oils brand?

[@stephanieflowers2783]

I use them on a daily basis and my absolute favorite company is Fabulous Frannie Essential Oils. I stumbled across her over 10 years ago on EBay and have ordered direct for 9+ years. I use them for everything

[@JessentialLife]

Yea, Plant Therapy is an amazing brand. I actually just did a comparison video between Plant Therapy vs doterra. =)

[@JessentialLife]

Yes, I do! I have many favorite brands, but Plant Therapy is one of them!!!!

[@JessentialLife]

Lol, I just realised I watched your video last year, too. Still a great video!

[@godbackwards]

Thieves and Doterra seem to be the best from all the testing i've seen.

[@kl4888]

Another great essential oil company is Hopewell Essential Oils. It’s a family run business who’s main goal is to help and only went online because of increased requests. Local to Central Texas. Appreciate Dr. Z’s books.

Nice! Thank you for sharing 😊 ~ Anja

[@MarysNest]

Hi Anja! I am so with you! Plant therapy has terrific essential oils. And yes, I’m so happy it’s not an MLM. I love their tea tree oil. It’s one of the best I’ve ever used. Thank you so much for this wonderful video and sharing the 10 reasons why you like the company so much. And you gave me such a chuckle about the certification.… Certifying that your kitchen is in fact clean! Lol! I will be a third-party and say that your kitchen is amazingly spotless! Lol!! Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️

[@OurGabledHome]

Oh, Mary, you are so sweet and I am happy to hear you love PT as much as I do! And sometimes you have to resort to humor and analogy to make a point ... Can I put your certification badge on my channel 😜???? Love 💛😍💛 ~ Anja

[@erinwhite8877]

We did Plant therapy they are a synthetic essential oil that are not pure essential oils! I found they never said what they meant they did and not pure essential oils. We did essential oils for 13 yrs and we love the purest essential oils ! We love Doterra,Young Living, and Revive the purest essential oils out their.

[@cynthiad7235]

It’s all contradictory

[@liliesofthefield5310]

Young living and Doterra are both MLM's.. You can't even buy them directly from the website, I don't trust a company like that

[@amandacarlisle5002]

Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video!

[@tmo.48]

Have never ordered anything online--I'm a bit computer stupid. But I've bought many EO's from the local health food type markets. They have all been the NOW brand and I have had such great results with them and hadn't realized there are so many more and better brands. My favorite and first ever EO has been Clove. It's has relieved so much pain that even the doctors couldn't help me with. Thank you for your information!♡☆♡

Thank you so much for sharing! I would say if you can leave a comment on my YT channel you can also order online! You can use my link and just go from there 😊 ~ Anja

@@OurGabledHome it’s very helpful!! High quality low cost essential oils!! So thrilled to have these options.

[@nicolapicola4502]

I'm not brand specific, but have used Australian Tea Tree oil and Lavender oils for years as staples. Tea tree is antifungal, antiseptic, antiviral and antibacterial... all rounder! Great to dab across the forehead and behind ears at night in summer to keep mosquitos away!! Lavender is wonderful for taking the sting out of sunburn or cuts. Just recently have realised that some oils are ingestible and have made muffins with lemon essential oil for flavour, amazing! It was your channel that gave me that idea! Lovely video😊

[@OurGabledHome]

Yay! That's great to hear! I often add essential oils (sparingly) to my dishes but everyone needs to do what they're comfortable with ~ Anja

[@Minnesota_Mama_Bear]

Great list Anja! I'm not brand specific but as a middle-of-the-line cost brand, Plant Therapy is a great product. By the way, don't ever speak like you are embarrassed by the number of essential oil you have. They all have a time & a place for their purpose. 😉 We're learning with you. Keep sharing the experiences of your adventure. 💚🌞

[@OurGabledHome]

Yay! I am so glad you find this helpful! And thank you for being so compassionate with my EO hoarding tendencies ... and your sweet comment 💛 ~ Anja

[@bridgetwilkins312]

Great info. Thank you. I would love to see how you organize and store your essential oils, please.

[@OurGabledHome]

Hi Bridget, I am happy to hear you enjoyed this. Maybe I'll do another video about how I store them 😊 ~ Anja

My top fav is Eden’s garden and revive is a close second!!

I use Revive essential oils.

[@OurGabledHome]

Hi Nancy, I will definitely look those up! Thank you so much for sharing 💛 ~ Anja

[@JessentialLife]

I use their oils, too! Along with Plant Therapy :)

[@emjay594]

Thank you so much for this video. I have started following Dr. Eric Z., and I was wondering what essential oils are best, since he is very careful not to recommend a particular brand. I have had some experience with essential oil companies. I left YL because I just could not afford their prices. I was very happy to know that you recommend two of the companies that I have purchased oils from since leaving YL. Thank you, too, for the book recommendations. I have Dr. Eric's books, but I didn't have the other book you recommended. I ordered that today from Amazon. Thanks again for all the great info. 🙂

Thanks, for sharing. I love Florihanna EO. But for cost/availability I often buy Skylara. My favorite oil is Vetiver(I could bathe in it ;)

[@OurGabledHome]

Yes, I have heard good things about Florihana essential oils but haven't tried them myself. Thank you so much for mentioning them and for your nice comment 💛 ~ Anja

[@patriciaredick9849]

Hi Patricia! I am glad you found this essential oils video helpful and thank you so much for your nice comment 💛 ~ Anja

[@theDaughterOfDawn]

Love the video!! Thank you. I recently found plant therapy and was switching over from Doterra. I love ingesting oils to help me sleep or add a little flavor to my water and while cooking. I tried ingesting some of Plant Therapy’s chamomile or Melissa and the way it made me feel made me think it wasn’t as pure as Doterra. Kinda scared me away from Plant Therapy. I’d love your thoughts!! There are so many other benefits from Plant Therapy over Doterra that I hope I’m wrong. Thanks for your video!!!

[@OurGabledHome]

I am so glad you found this video helpful! As for any differences compared to DT essential oils, I am sure the customer support at PT would love to help you further with that: www.planttherapy.com/ (contact info is at the very bottom of the page) ~ Anja

[@itslechico]

New to essential oils - I'm using Scenery Oils - they have pure lavender essential oil. I use it for sleep and cleaning, but I found it to boost my mood too...still discovering this world. thanks for sharing!

Aromatics International and Stillpoint Aromatics and Mountain Rose are also excellent non multi level companies that I use. I also appreciate Plant Therapy! Thank for this great video.

[@zackpike9022]

Yes I love essential oils I buy many brands but I guess my favorite would be Zongle I look for oils that say USDA Organic Diffuser - Safe to Ingest, Food Grade, Therapeutic Grade If they are not therapeutic grade and safe to ingest ill buy the same oil in a higher quality elsewhere because I'm not just looking for my space to smell good I want to reap the benefits I also check their certification certificate/their third-party inspection for that batch that I'm purchasing if they don't have that information I stay clear of them I don’t like to use essential oils that have other ingredients in them

[@MataH1]

So glad you don't support MLM oils! Thanks for the advice!

Thank you for this excellent information. I have been using essential oils for many years and do not like the prices or business practices of MLM companies. Most of them have their own internal quality control that they then claim as “certified “. Which is like the fox guarding the hen house. I’ll definitely check out Plant Therapy. Thanks again.

Essential oils are big business and it seems like everyone is loving and using them. However, there are so many companies out there that sell them that it can be hard to determine which ones to choose. So many have asked me repeatedly what my favorite essential oil brand is. I have quietly done quite a bit of research :) 😊 ~ Anja

I only use “now” brand, my issue with it is with time, it smell bad like after 2 or 3 hours . Is this a general problem for all essential oils ? Or the brand i use?

What do you think about the brand "Botanic Hearth" organic essential oils?

[@OurGabledHome]

Haven't heard of them but will check them out!

[@CristyVW]

Have you looked at the Revive essential oils by any chance? I'd be curious what your thoughts are on those and how they might 'measure up' in your opinion with Plant Therapy's oils....

[@OurGabledHome]

Hi Christy, I think Revive is a fine brand but I still prefer PT. Some of those reasons are: they have A LOT of educational resources on their website, you can look at the lab reports, and you can earn points. Hope this helps 😊 ~ Anja

[@CristyVW]

@@OurGabledHome thanks so much for your quick response! Thank you!! I have been using both and I enjoy both. I was gifted some from Revive not to long ago- so hence my question/curiosity. I appreciate your answer- and I agree that PT has a fantastic website and great customer service as well!!

Revive is 3rd party tested and has a ton of info on their site too! 🙂

[@amandaking4830]

Have you tried Young Living? I’ve heard good things. If you’ve tried it, how would you say it compares to PT?

I think YL's quality is fine but they are a MLM. With Plant Therapy you buy your oils only when you want or need them 😊 ~ Anja

[@michelehayes9509]

Thanks so much for this video Anja. I've never tried Plant Therapy but will look it up. I normally buy the few essential oils I use at our local health store. I do have a few doterra. It's a good brand but too expensive for me. I'm lucky enough to live in a town that gas a farm who grows lavender and sells the oil as well. Love lavender 💜

I like essential oils very much but I don't shop online so for me this video is only relevant to USA viewers. I'm in the UK. Thank you.

[@mary-dj8kj]

For me Doterra is also the best. They are CPTG and as someone else mentioned - you can ingest it and if you can use it internally... it's safer than any other oil out there

[@OurGabledHome]

Thank you for your insights!

[@plantlady65]

I can't watch this simply because you choose a low quality essential oils that use fillers. I care about how oils are sourced and the testing standards so I only use DoTerra's essential oils.

[@annerobinson2288]

Any organic 100% pure oil company can be therapeutic and ingested, not just Doterra and Young Living. Still, it requires caution and eduction to do it safely.

[@flammaferus2998]

@@annerobinson2288 Shockingly, "100% pure" doesn't mean pure all the way. The term "pure" is used heavily in the essential oil industry. "100% pure essential oils" are such popular marketing terms that they appear on nearly every essential oil label. 1) Pure essential oils can be diluted by up to 49% by law. The claim "100% pure" may appear on the bottle label with as little as 51% essential oil! Therefore, "pure" on the label doesn't really mean anything. 2) Pure essential oils can have synthetic chemicals added. Even if an oil is `pure' in the sense of not being diluted, it may still be adulterated with artificial chemicals to and fragrances. I am convinced that my nose was good. My body must have reacted to some toxins such as chemical fragrances and/or chemical residues I was fooled by "100% pure" label and learned it the hard way. I am going from the cheapest to the finest from now on...Mountain Rose Herbs, Native American Naturals, Plant Therapy, etc.

There are no organic oils. Any company can claim that their oils are organic but there is no regulation for it when it comes to essential oils so it’s another marketing catch.

[@lisavigliotta5480]

Never buy your oils from through big box stores.

[@JessentialLife]

I love the suspense you created by sharing multiple brands but not telling us right away haha.

[@reginasanchez9432]

Why do you assume all the things that Plant Therapy does the other companies don't do. I don't know any EO company that does their own verification. I think saying that is very misleading. The other companies you spoke against have the same GCMS reports. Not saying Plant Therapy is not good. I've used them. But the other companies you negated have a very good product.
