Progesterone Talk Q and A Live!

1/30/2018

I am so excited to see some information straight from a doctor's mouth about Progessence Plus... the information below is from Heather Hanford Isaac Gold Leader at Young Living Essential Oils in a group that I belong to.  

"Dr. Dan Purser, the co-creator of Progessence Plus, did a FB Live vid last night that I feel many people will find beneficial. I met him at Monique McClean's Thrive conference awhile back, standing in line for hours for 5 minutes with him. That's how much I trust him!

Because he is a doctor, he is allowed to talk about conditions...though we can NOT! I do not have answers to your questions and we have to delete condition names, so if you have questions please contact Dr. Dan or grab his free books, etc. Some people even pay to have phone consultations with him to figure out hormone issues. (He lives in Utah.)

This video touches on: natural progesterone vs. synthetic, how Progessence Plus does not contain yam molecules (it is made from wild yam, but converts to something else) & can be used by those with estrogen dominance/certain conditions, menopause & things that go along with that, several women conditions, birth control & what he considers the "healthiest" & what he recommends staying away from, the MTHFR gene and how those who have it can be vitamin-deficient and how birth control can affect them, etc. It is long, but he answers many questions!"

Essential Oils & Animals

1/9/2018

When I first started using oils I was introduced to Young Living first. People told me they were the best but I wanted to try others to compare. So I bought off Amazon and at the grocery store and tried them. As a newbie I noticed the difference. In scent, and in the fact that they didn’t work. Then I read more about seed to seal which is YLs purity guarantee. I encourage you to visit www.seedtoseal.com to learn more about it. The graphics below give a quick overview. I use my YL oils every single day on myself, my husband, my daughter uses them on my granddaughter, in my house, around my dogs and personally know individuals who have for years. I trust these products way more than the artificial stuff on the store shelves. Young Living confidently offers lines of oils specifically designed for pets and children!
Facebook has erupted with tons of concerned pet owners all because of one person who purchased their oils from Amazon and their cat got sick.  I have no doubt your cat got sick and I am surprised this pet owner did not as well.
If you've taken the time to compare YL oils to any other brand, they are very different. The smell alone will confirm it, but YL does lots of expensive and thorough testing on all of their oils to ensure they are free from synthetics, and are the highest therapeutic value possible. YL has a Seed to Seal promise, and it’s the basis of everything the company stands for.
Most, if not all, of the oils sold on Amazon and in any other store contain synthetics, which are harmful to both people and animals. That’s why I choose to use YL oils and products - to avoid the harmful things that are hidden in the products we commonly purchase. The post also stated that the use of scented candles are used in the home. Fragrance has been shown to be toxic to humans and animals, and unless you’re reading labels, your home is probably filled with it. This is why I have chosen to eliminate scented candles and oil burners such as glade plugins and other toxic products in my home.
Although I do not have cats currently, I know plenty of families who use YL oils who do and have no issues at all with their animals health. Animals are definitely more sensitive to essential oils and when using essential oils with animals you MUST dilute properly, do your research on oils that are safe for animals and above all use common sense.
My dogs are surrounded by essential oils daily and I have applied topically to my dogs with no adverse reactions. I feel perfectly safe diffusing YOUNG LIVING oils around my animals and family and my grandchildren. I trust Young Living oils and know they are safe and beneficial for my family. I urge you to do your own research and do what feels right for you!
For more information, please find a trusted reference guide. There are great Animal specific reference guides out there. Just be careful Googling, because there is a lot of misinformation on the internet. Anyone can write an article and pass it off as fact.

What's under your sink? THE THREE CABINET CHALLENGE!

1/6/2018

0 Comments

Here is a little challenge for you today! If you're not at home set a reminder to do this when you get home- or find a product at work or at the store and scan it. Today's task is called the Three Cabinet Challenge, and here's how it works:
1. Download the Think Dirty App and/or the EWG Healthy Living App. They are both FREE in your app store!
2. Head to three of your cabinets (under your kitchen or bathroom sinks, your shower, and your laundry room are the best places.)
3. Start scanning! You just point the camera at the bar code. It couldn't be easier.
4. Share below about some of your most shocking discoveries after using the app. I’d love for you to share photos of some of the scans.
The higher the number, the more toxic ingredients in the product!!! For comparison, here are some products I found most shocking:
-Suave Dermatologist Tested Advanced Therapy skin lotion: rated 10 toxicity🤢
- Cetaphil: mostly rate 9-10 in toxicity, and are dermatologist recommended
- Aveeno Baby: mostly rate 9-10 in toxicity, and are also dermatologist recommended for babies😡
- Clorox Green Works Cleaner: rates a 9 in toxicity
Why is this a big deal? The toxins in these products can lead to hormone disruption, allergies, developmental and reproductive issues, cancer, and so much more. It's kind of a big deal.
A lot of people think that living a toxin-free lifestyle is expensive, and that's why they haven't made the switch yet. Or maybe people just get so overwhelmed in thinking they have to throw away their entire house!?
Would you believe me if I told you that it's actually often much less expensive to live the way we do? And that you can absolutely take baby steps in ridding your home of toxins? I worked through what I had and replaced with toxic free alternatives as I went. It is a process. I am so glad that I began this process a few months ago, I am still working on cleaning out my toxic products but I have not regretted even one product being gone!
