Diffusing at the onset of a cold or flu can help significantly in reducing symptoms of cold or flu. In some cases, if caught early enough, the action of therapeutic grade essential oils can kill the micro-organisms altogether and help your cold or flu go away. At the very least this recipe should be helpful in helping you to get the rest you need.

You'll need:

A Diffuser (avoid diffusers that use heat as a means to disperse your essential oil as heat destroys the beneficial molecules)

Several drops of each of these therapeutic grade essential oiils: Lavender, bergamot, Melaleuca (tea tree), and Ravensara.

Simply add several drops of each essential oil listed to your diffuser and turn diffuser on. Some diffusers have a timer which is useful. If your chosen diffuser does not have a timer you can purchase one at any home improvement store, it's the same type of timer you would use to turn your lamps off and on. Set the timer to go off and on for 15-20 minutes an hour throughout the night.

Super C Chewable has the most complete biologically utilizable vitamin C supplement available, as it is derived from a whole food source: acerola cherries. Free of common allergens. No artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, salt, starch, corn, wheat, yeast, or soy products. I love it!

Over the past 30 or more years I've tried many different brands of probiotics, some of which didn't have any effect whatsoever. I was very excited when Young Living created "Life 5" and couldn't wait to give it a try. I really like it's effectiveness.

I especially like the ingredients in Life 5, it contains five clinically proven probiotic strains including three advanced super strains to enhance intestinal health, sustain energy and improve immunity. Life 5 contains 8 billion active cultures and improves colonization up to 10 times.

A few weeks ago I ate some food that didn't agree with me and my stomach began hurting and rumbling. I took 2 Life 5 capsules and within 5-10 minutes I was feeling back to normal. I'm empressed with Young Living's Life 5.

Ingredients: HOWARU™ Rhamnosus (Ld. rhamnosus), Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA-14), HOWARU™ Bifido (Bifidobacterium lactis), Lactoferrin Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Microcrystalline cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, magnesium stearate, and silica.

Young Living's Omega Blue is the best fish oil supplement I've ever used. There is no fishy taste, no heavy metals, frre of dioxins and PCBs, and no junk. Omega Blue also contains the essential oils of Blue (German) Chamomile, Myrrh, Lemongrass, and Clove - providing a synergistic effect. One capsule is equal to 3 cans of tuna! This is an excellent supplement for anyone looking to boost their intake of Omega 3s.

During the cold/flu season, our family favorites in the way of defense include ImmuPower essential oil and Inner Defense. They even seem to help if we are already getting sick.

During cold and flu season I always make sure to have plenty of Thieves essential oil and Inner Defense softgels on hand.

I use the Thieves oil in two ways: 1. apply a couple drops to the soles of my feet, and 2. diffuse in my nebulizer diffuser 15 to 30 minutes a day.

Inner Defense is very powerful and has on at least two occasions knocked out a cold and sore throat within a few hours in it's beginning stages.

Drink NingXia Red, at least 1 ounce a day. Keep a single pack handy for an afternoon "pick me up."

NingXia Red's astounding SOD score makes all other nutrient drinks pale in comparison. But why the concern and worry over free radicals? The reason is that the distresses and ailments of aging are hastened by the attack of free radicals on every cell in the body. Halt free radical damage and enjoy vibrant health for many more years!

In addition, there is also an ingredient synergy at work in NingXia Red (Wolfberry/Goji berry) as the raspberries, blueberries, and pomegranates in the juice are also potent antioxidants. Even the essential oils of orange and lemon in this powerful juice contain the antioxidant d-limonene.
