Why Doterra

Best Essential Oils

If you’re wondering where to buy essential oils, you don’t have to look far. However, be careful where you look, because many essential oils on the market are heavily contaminated or adulterated with synthetic chemicals. If you’re buying essential oils, it means you want something completely natural and safe. Make sure that you don’t inadvertently buy something you think is natural but turns out to be synthetic.

When you want essential oils that are safe and effective, the most important thing to look for is purity. Pure essential oils allow you to reap the full benefits that nature has to offer. They can support you, empower you, and revive you. And when using only the purest essential oils, you can be confident that they are safe to use with your family.

Essential oils are everywhere. You can find essential oils at grocery stores, online, and even in your neighborhood market. With so many choices, how do you know which essential oils are best? You can study a number of brands like I did before I decided that doTERRA was hands down the best, or you can learn for yourself, ensuring that the company you choose can pass the tests below.

What To Look For When Buying Essential Oils

When you use a bottle of doTERRA essential oil, you’re using an oil that is pure. There are no contaminants, fillers, or adulterations. The essential oil industry did not have standards to ensure purity, so doTERRA created one.

Every batch of doTERRA essential oils goes through a rigorous testing process—well beyond what would be considered “good enough.” After that, each oil is sent to an independent third party for further testing and validation.

Sustainable and responsible sourcing (Where do their oils come from?)

Extensive and thorough testing (Do they test their oils for adulteration and contamination?)

Clear and accessible safety and usage information (Do they show customers how to use the oils safely?)

Transparency (Do they use third-party testing? Do they make test results public?)

And yes, YOU can access those test results on each and every bottle of oil.

Pure Essential Oils Pass Tests

The purity of an essential oil is its most important characteristic. When an essential oil is adulterated or contaminated, it becomes less effective and can even be dangerous. Above all else, purity is doTERRA’s first priority when producing essential oils. Many are labeled pure but simply aren't. That's why doTERA makes their third party test results public - for each and every bottle.

Responsible Sourcing of Essential Oils

Every oil sold by doTERRA is responsibly and sustainably sourced. doTERRA focuses on sourcing practices that will produce only the highest quality essential oils—no matter the cost. We make it a top priority to protect the environment during the production process and provide fair treatment and payment of all harvesters and growers. We even do reforestation in many areas.

Humanitarian Impact

From the beginning, doTERRA wanted to be more than a business. “There are givers and there are takers,” said David Stirling, doTERRA Founding Executive, CEO. “We wanted doTERRA to be a giver.” We provide no interest loans to small farmers, build schools and water wells to sustain communities. We change lives.
