I prefer to use “natural” cures when having medical issues as I have no faith in modern meds!!! I often opt for using Essential Oils, homemade tonics, tinctures, etc. I have noticed that since Essential Oils have become an accepted trend that suddenly we no longer have “real natural” EO’s. the corporations have started coming up with their own “designer” oils that smell more pleasing than the basic oils. It also makes me wonder what they’re doing with original oils to stretch them to meet the consumption demands??? Tea Tree Oil is an excellent antiseptic, but how many trees have been destroyed in the making of the millions of bottles of Tea Tree Oil??? This oil comes from a specific plant grown in parts of Australia. Once the plants are depleted, what are they really selling us??

What do they actually put in the OTC tonics??? Is it the same ingredients that the homemade products have in them??? Can we really trust the corporations to put our health before their profit margin???

Even our vitamins are now being made by big pharma which are the same people who are making the meds that are killing us. It has been exposed that the FDA is in the deep pockets of the corporations, so they are NO longer protecting the average citizen. Any ideas on how to once again become safer when taking care of oneself??
