Cold Congestion

Place a drop of Peppermint oil on the tongue and inhale into the nose and sinuses to relieve congestion from a cold.

My Favorite Vitamin C Supplement Ever!

Evelyn Vincent

Young Living's "Super C - Chewable" is superb! It tastes delicious, reminds me of the flavor of those Smartie candies I ate as a kid. I love keeping the bottle of Super C on my desk during the winter. I've also found that mumching on a Super C Chewable also takes my sugar cravings away.

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!

High Potency Probiotic: Life 5

Evelyn Vincent

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.

Omega 3 Fish Oil

Evelyn Vincent

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.

ImmuPower

Shayla Pollert

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.

Thieves Waterless Hand Cleaner for Ear Infection

Curt Siters

I recently met up with a young friend of mine who told me she had an ear infection and to cap it off she showed me. It was a large hard bump behind her ear.

I had with me a bottle of Thieves™ Waterless Hand Cleaner and told her to give it a try. Put a small dab behind her ear three times per day. Personally I was a bit skeptical for something like this because it was under the skin and fairly well along.

Then about four days later, I had a chance meeting with her again and she was so amazed that it was gone that quick - so was I (but I tried not to show it!)

I would have recommended Thieves™ Essential Oil Blend but all I had with me was the hand cleaner.

Thieves & Inner Defense

Evelyn Vincent

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.

Best Antioxidant, Boost Immune System

Jonell Elder

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.
