Essential Oils As Medicine: Essential Oils Guide

Learn more about essential oils as medicine here: draxe.com/essential-oils-guid...
Essential oils are organic compounds extracted from plants with tremendous healing properties. Using essential oils for healing purposes is often called aromatherapy.
For over 5,000 years, many different cultures have used these healing plant oils for a variety of health conditions. They are often used for relaxation, beauty care, home cleaning and most often used as natural medicine.
In this video, Jordan Rubin and I discuss several different essential oils - including frankincense, turmeric, lavender, oregano, clove, tea tree, ylang ylang and so many more - and how to use each one to help combat common illnesses. Watch to learn the power of essential oils as medicine.

Oregano oil!! I use a Holistic dentist. I had used a dentist for years that I didn't realize was not looking out for my best interest. During that time, I developed an abscessed tooth and the secular dentist wanted to put me on antibiotics and do a root canal. Fortunately, my sisterinlaw intervened and got me to a holistic dentist who confirmed the tooth was abscessed severely and she would have to extract if the infection could not be eliminated.(Never do a root canal!) She had me use oregano oil internally to treat the infection. Ten drops in the morn and evening for six weeks. (it tastes yucky but in juice its tolerable) It totally eliminated the infection and I did not have to lose my tooth. That has been four years ago, not problems since, and I am really impressed with the healing power of oregano oil!

[@OoMASEoO]

Terry Lynn Henderson About the oregano oil... Is there a special kind that is meant to be ingested vs being applied topically, or are they all the same?

[@terrylynnhenderson6563]

There are several good brands that are able to be ingested. Dr. Petre had me use Premier brand. She sells it in her office, but, since I live an hour and a half from her, after the first bottle, I found it on Amazon. Young Living Essential oils are also good. They are a bit more pricey than Premier, but, both are very good quality/organic. Bless you.

[@terrylynnhenderson6563]

And, no, they are not all the same. She had me do 10 drops in juice and drink in the morning and in the evening. Knocked the abscess in my tooth right out, but, she had me do it for six weeks. It kills all infection in your body.

My mother-in-law is 90 years old with dementia. She was very anxious at bedtime, getting up multiple times to check all the doors and windows. We were worried we would find her on the floor somewhere in the morning! I began diffusing 4 drops of lavender with 1 drop of peppermint at 7 pm. What an amazing difference it has made!!! She goes to bed without barely a worry and more importantly - she stays in bed and does not wander! I'm so grateful I was introduced to essential oils! Thank you two for sharing with us.

[@simplyabbey139]

Sugeiryb A couple of drops under the tongue . Hold it for as long as I could. It's a volatile oil it will heat up. Take proper precautions. Also I drink it with juice so as not to experience the heating sensation. Oregano oil is an extremely powerful oil that should be taken with care. If you have a mint allergy I wouldn't recommend it. Hope this helps 💜

[@shortie.2380]

Sugeiryb I combine orgeno and thieves and dilute it with coconut oil, put it in a roller and rub it under the feet. I use it on my kids too! Try Young Living Essential Oils.

[@simplyabbey139]

That's a powerful combo. I would check with a herbalist and your doctor. When oregano oil is pure. You don't need anything else. Same goes with the thieves oil. It was powerful enough to kill the plague. Be careful with that combo. If it is working out, wonderful. 💜

Hello Dr. Josh Axe, it's a great channel. just want to share, about a month ago, my father-in-law's friend had a chronic diabetes and part of his foot was told to be amputated. He was then given this "Black Turmeric", a traditional herbs in West Java for this particular case. After three times drinking the juice of this black turmeric (in Bahasa Indonesia is Kunyit Hitam, in Sundanese is Koneng Hideung), his foot showed improvement and in a week time completely recovered. I've met this patient myself and he shared his story. Perhaps, Scientists could try to look into it, who knows there are people out there could also benefit from this black turmeric, especially those with diabetes. In my neighborhood the turmeric is easy to find with only about USD 4.00/kg. The juice of the turmeric is not yellow, it's more to light brown, very light brown with no yellow.

Essential oils are great, however because of their potency there are essential oil safety guidelines (see Robert Tisserand's work or consult a certified aromatherapist) that should be considered,,ingestion should be with caution so as not to overwork liver and upset mucus membranes. Also,,with regard to aromatherapy some essential oils have a chemical compound that can slow respiratory in small children and should be approached with caution or delayed in use with small children. Using topically should also be used with caution and always with proper dilution so as not to induce sensitization or photo toxicity. Essential oils can also be contraindicated with some pharma prescribed meds. Oil on in safety!

You end up paying for treatment during a lifetime, while it's probably more simple to prevent it... I'm glad your sister recovered btw... ☺️ I currently don't have any major disease but I will try essential oils for prevention & to solve some minor problems I have myself (like concentration or sleeping problems).

I enjoy what you both do so much, & this information is very great & helpful. I am not licensed as anything in healthcare just yet, however when it comes to internally digesting essential oils, I am not for it, only consuming the natural source how it was done in ancient years. For example, frankincense, it is native to my country, I am from Eritrea (which is apart of the Red Sea coast in the horn of Africa, & was once apart of Ethiopia, & the border for Egypt) I grew up with seeing my mom chew the actual frankincense, that's how it was consumed, she would chew it up & throw it in our traditional incense burner mechanism with the coal. I started dong this recently & I can't tell you how overall good I felt, I just chew one in the morning, to not overdue it, but the extract oil is a high concentrate, not meant for internally, oil does not mix with water, so it won't be truly diluted. So I would recommend for anyone who truly wants to reap the benefits of it internally purchase the actual gum resin, & purchase it from the country that it is native to, Like my country Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, Yemen, and Oman. Also, the funny thing is my mom would also put orange peels, etc. on top of our the coal of our incense burner she had, I use to think nothing of it, now I know that is the natural ancient way people "used diffusers" , they burned the natural item itself. I hope this helps anyone trying to do it the trusted safe & ancient way. Now I see how wise my mom was/is, and that I am truly blessed to know what I know because of her, and the place I am from.

Thanks a lot for these wonderful information

[@valeriesanders4917]

From what I understand essential oils must be organic, therapeutic and never use topically without a carrier oil because of their high potency. Do your research I don't want anyone to get harmed!

[@darb138]

Valerie Sanders yes it’s extremely important to make sure you’re getting pure oils.

Love the video! Question for you! Where do I find food grade essential oils.. a lot of sites are saying there is no such thing.. how does one ingest them if food grade doesn't exist? Thank you in advance...

I was having 5-20 optical migraines per month for years. Two years ago I began taking turmeric capsules, and I had only 1 total migraine last year, 2021. And at 62, I was getting those blood bruises under my skin bi-weekly even though there was no trauma to that area. I didn't have one episode in 2021. Last one was 2020.

Thank you for the video guys. Wish your bone broth didn't cost so much. A dollar a serving would be helpful for the people.
