So more people left comments on Kristina's video asking her to remove it. She didn't do that. Instead, she just disabled comments! Also, she's a doTERRA rep. Waaaaaay down in her description after promoting her app and a bunch of other stuff, she says "Get Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils & Join My Doterra Essential Oils Team here". You can report the video, which a bunch of people have already done (I was able to read some comments before she removed them). I believe this qualifies as "harmful and dangerous acts".

I'm currently a student studying ecology and environmental science. I learned in one of my natural resource management legal classes that essential oil brands (particularly Young living) are known for illegally poaching endangered plant species for their oils. Rosewood and Madagascar mahogany are coveted Woody plants that are common targets. Using many brands/ types of essential oils can be quite detrimental to the environment. So Kristina and other vegans who use essential oils regularly, claim to be vegan in part for sustainability reasons. While they may do it with good intentions, they need to re-evaluate. They need to make sure their oils are sustainability sourced and not derived from endangered plants.

These are similar to essential oil, although they actually have to pass FDA relations and are often diluted a bit already with more carrier oil to make them palatable at a reasonably measurable amount (cooks don't usually have an eyedropper in with the measuring spoons). They're also crucially From Food Ingredients that are generally recognized as safe--let's be real: nobody's great-gramma was known for her Theives-and-cheese spread or geranium salad. You can get a wide variety of flavors in oil form (cinnamon, clove, orange, lemon, lavender, oregano are some common natural ones, but you can also get bubblegum, root beer, banana, etc). These are useful for flavoring things like chocolate that will break with the addition of water/alcohol, or for hard candies which are cooked at a temperature high enough to evaporate alcohol, and for people who for religious/medical/personal reasons avoid all alcohol. They also have a different flavor profile (unsurprisingly, as different flavor compounds will/won't dissolve in oil vs alcohol vs water vs glycerin). Some bottles (especially stuff like clove or oregano) even have warnings on them just like a cleaning product because they're known skin/eye irritants. Peppermint oil [flavoring] has been used for centuries, and unlike "geranium EO lemondade", has a pretty good track record WHEN DILUTED (and for the love of all that is holy DO NOT put it neat on skin or in your mouth--when I was in High School, DIY flavored toothpicks were really popular and I remember kids were getting burns and mouth ulcers from overuse of straight cinnamon oil in their cheeks)! In general, oil flavorings are really strong--you can't substitute peppermint oil 1:1 for an alcohol peppermint flavoring when baking or cooking--an just eighth teaspoon in a big batch of frosting veers dangerously into mouthwash/toothpaste territory. In essence, what I'm trying to say is that a drop of peppermint [flavoring] oil, diluted with food or taken in copious amounts of liquid, is probably not going to be harmful. It has a long, long track record (hundreds of years) as an ingredient in foods, medicines, and products like toothpaste, and a commercial food extract is overseen by the FDA and similar bodies where they exist. But to say that because some peppermint oil is okay (in limited, diluted amounts--flavorings are vetted as safe //when used in the accepted manner//, aka for flavoring a food item to the point of pleasureable taste) and covered by the FDA and sold in stores as a food item, then (a) it must also be perfectly safe to use at any dose/concentration/application, or (b) that an essential oil produced by a manufacturer that is not overseen by the FDA must be just as safe, and/or (c) that /any/ essential oil (be it cloves, geranium, or thieves) can be used safely in a similar manner...that's reckless at best and deadly at worst--PEOPLE HAVE DIED from essential oil misuse!

kinda pyramidal marketing

As someone who works in the perfume industry I always find it amusing when people express profound enthusiasm for essential oils. I don’t usually say much about it, but in the hierarchy of aromatic extracts essential oils available commercially are some of the poorest quality you can find. I’ve never come across a brand which uses the most up do date and effective extraction methods to produce the purest absolutes. And since the sector is largely unregulated there is absolutely nothing stopping aromatherapy companies from adulterating their products to make them smell better and make more money. Linalool is an interesting example, you mentioned it, it occurs in the oils of numerous flowers and other scented source materials. The scent of Freesia is almost entirely Linalool. It can be produced by synthetic processes, it’s bio-identical to the stuff that occurs in flowers. But a cheap, low grade rose oil (for instance) can be made to smell better by adulteration with synthetically derived linalool (among other things) and sold as Rose essential oil with no mention of the included linalool because some linalool was already present in the stuff anyway and the lack of regulations means this is legally acceptable. Campherene (a known carcinogen) can be added to essential oils which have a fresh and green aspect to the perception of their smell where that molecule occurs naturally in the extracted oil, several white floral oils fall into this bracket as well as certain oils extracted from resinoids like Myrrh or Frankincense.

So I was like: ok that’s fine, I’m going to be at a store or something right? Nope. The second day they asked us to write a list of all the people we know. They made us write 150 names... I couldn’t even get to 50. Then they explained that we needed to call all of our family and friends to make appointments to buy these knives. That I wouldn’t be paid for mileage or hourly. Just commission and the time spent at an appointment which was $9 for an hour. I did not go back the third day. The secretary called me three times per day asking me if “I was sure,” for almost a week. I had to have my dad scream at them to stop stalking me. MLMs are terrible and really shouldn’t be legal!

Im not too sure if this will help, but I have 4 different chronic migraine disorders (neurological, ocular, vestibular, and abdominal) 2 of which affect me every single day (ocular and vestibular). The main daily issue being that both types of migraines affect my sight. My left eye is very... lets say, damaged. I will never see properly out of it again and I know that. At times though my eyes (sometimes just the left) will develop extreme light sensitivity and sometimes head or eye pain comes with it. CBD oil is the ONLY thing I have ever found to help me with this. Ive tried all over the counter and my migraine medicine only helps with my neurological migraines when I get them. CBD rubs as well as a essential oil infused balm are the only thing that will ease my daily headaches. Btw no Im not vegan and I have tried medications and ill often pair them with balms or oils to hopefully have a better effect even though ibuprofen doesn’t work for me much anymore (i had to take it too often) I hope that this maybe helped give you a little insight on CBD. Side note: I always try something with the expectation that it wont work because I feel like this will never go away. So when I decided to try CBD I wasnt expecting any results. I thought thatd be too easy of a solution. So for it to have worked for me you can understand my shock. The reason why im mentioning this is some people think CBD is a placebo. Im living proof that its not because I didn’t believe a damn thing would ever help especially something i can pick up at my grocery store. But it did and now im in a lot less discomfort everyday.

The way I see it, is they are using a strain of Rose's that are not bred for beauty but for yield, so it's not leaving florist's short. The plant is still producing oxygen even in non production times. Other than the fact that its useless, and the land could be used for something else like food, I don't see the waste.

But... water and oil don’t mix right? I’m confused ! The oil would float on the surface so what’s even the point?

Dolittle's Den that’s exactly what happens. I was told to drink peppermint oil in water for stomach aches, it burns your lips and mouth and throat so much.

essential oil is not an oil at all, educate yourself. You are confusing true carrier oils with essential oils.

Still doesn't mix with water. Still floats to the top. Carrier oil or essential oil. The result when mixed with water is the same.

@@annamarialetterbond3704 Lmao essential oils ARE oils. The difference is that they're highly volatile oils which makes them react differently than your average "carrier" oil. But they microscopically have the same biological that classifies them as an oil and therefore doesn't mix with water.

I use a couple drops of essential oil in water to clean with, I could never imagine drinking that.

The most important thing I got from this: "Hippies clean your ass." Awe inspiring

For reference, I'm a chemistry student and when I did my OChem Lab we had to distill essential oils: we distilled 1 small drop (it was pratically invisible) of oil from 100 g/3.5 oz of lavender.

Really helped with my acne. Love tea tree but never crossed my mind to actually ingest the oil. They always say to use carrier oil to dilute it. So I’m shocked that people would just ingest it. Topical is just fine.

Lmao why did I get a doterra ad on this Clearly they don't know who they're advertising to, I obviously did not come here to buy oils.

I was targeted by a much older family friend right after high school to sell for Beach Body. This person knew I had mental health issues and body based trauma. Not only was I basically fat shamed, I lost so so so much money and made a fool of myself. This older family friend never spoke with me again when I told her I could no longer afford to pay for the shakes every month to stay a coach.

@@haileygrey5047 There's almost nothing out there :( Cassandra Bankson has a video on alkaline water and how it's basically a scam. Moon and Rock (who were pretty extreme on the vegan, natural everything scale) also mentioned in a live chat that they bought the Kangen water machine because they believed what people told them but I think it negatively impacted their digestion because they said they were selling it..I don't think they wanted to say more since their friends (like Alyse from Raw Alignment and others) are people promoting and selling the machine.

Just adding on to help provide more stuff to look into on this topic, people tout alkaline water bc they think that drinking alkaline water will make your overall body pH more alkaline. People more knowledgable about human health disprove this by saying you can't change your body pH with alkaline water and that a change in body pH is a sure trip to the ER (ex, diabetic ketoacidosis). It's on the same basis as what people claim to be "ketosis" in the keto diet.

Putting essential oils into the air is dangerous to pets. Cats can't metabolize things like lavender oil.

I let all 8 or so commercials play just cause I love your channel that much! Keep up the great work :)

This video has way more views than her lemonade video. Is Kristina even relevant enough to be worthy of a response?

PrinsessAnna yeah, no they don’t. I have had chronic migraines for over 10 years and I can guarantee you 100% that an essential oil is not going to do jack shit. A neurologist and medication management does. Your friend lies.

I use non-MLM essential oils in a diffuser to make my kitchen smell like lemons and oranges. I’m so sick of being associated with these people 🤦🏻‍♀️

I use essential oils as fragrances. Don't need any magical healing quality. My room smells like a witch's den and that's what I like. :3 But, I am grateful you are warning people. Thank you! I intuitively felt ingesting essential oils would be a bad idea but never knew for sure. Thanks a lot for educating people.
