Dear Vilik,

I have been a distributor of Young Living Oils for about 2 years. While I like

the oils, I generally don't buy from this company anymore because they are too

expensive for my wallet.

There is a company in Canada that was begun because Chad, the founder, loves

essential oils and wanted to obtain them at the bulk prices enjoyed by the food,

cosmetic and perfume industries. This Canadian company passes along the

wholesale savings to the public. It makes a little money on shipping, packing,

etc., but not nearly the amount of profit that it takes to support a MLM

company. For example, last year I purchased almost 16 oz. of oregano oil for

under $30. The very reasonable prices make it possible for me to enjoy many

essential oils, even some of the more expensive ones that I otherwise might not

have bought.

Their oils are wildcrafted or organic, tested to be free of solvents and other

chemicals, etc. I have purchased about two dozen oils and find them to be of

exceptional quality (the Pink Grapefruit is absolutely divine!). Shampoos, soaps

and similar items are also sold.

Their website is http://www.essentialoilpool.com/ I like the quality so

much, I list the company in the Resource Appendix of my Rife Handbook.

Hi Nina. In all my studying I have not had the time or $ to study up on

essential oils. I just went to this site and signed up for free newsletter.

Hopefully it will have some information that will start me on my learning

process.

I have a funny/embarrassing story to tell, with a question attached.

I have a recipe for orange almond muffins. Instead of flour you grind up

almonds and they are flavored with orange extract and a little orange juice.

Really yummy. Well one day I made them and they were especially tastey. Really

orangey. And I noticed shortly after eating them, that I had made them with

orange essential oil instead of orange extract. A friend had shopped for me

and got the essential oil instead of the extract and I didn't notice it until

after I made the muffins. Well neither of us felt bad afterward and I was

wondering if it is okay to do that????? I would like to make them again, with

the essential oil instead of the extract. Is that okay or not?

Thanks

Donna

Thank you, Vilik, very muchly!

Since I've never really bothered to build a business with these

wonderful, but pricey products, I'm going to go along with Nina's

advice!

Though there are some unique products from YL that are not available

anywhere else, I think I'm going to try to save some money on the oils

also.

I'll keep my distributorship in a semi active state to get those few

items, but without the 'business', the oils are really very high $.

As long as the quality is equal, and I'm trusting Nina's judgment on

this one!

Hi Donna,

I love your 'accidental recipe'! Rest at ease, there is even a cookbook

available for cooking with essential oils.

They can make an ordinary dish very special.

Usually one has to be careful with quantity as they can be very potent.

Enjoy and experiment!

Sharon

Oh, Good news. Yay. Thanks Sharon. This is one of my favorite recipes and it

was just awesome with the essential oil. I am very happy to know about this and

I am looking forward to learning more about E oils.

Thanks

Great story, Donna.

Essential oils that are made without solvents or harmful chemicals -- assuming

the plants from which they are derived edible (and they usually are) -- should

also be edible. After all, aren't the extracts derived from the E.O.s, simply

watered down? I use essential oils in my cooking -- oregano, lemongrass, orange,

lemon, among others -- and the dishes come out fabulous. The only thing is, add

the E.O. at the very end, since high heat destroys the oils.

If you look at the labels of bakery products from the health food store,

sometimes you'll see " essential oils " instead of " extracts. "

Nina

And thank YOU, Donna! Please remind me in about 10 days to post some recipes (I

made up a coconut pudding that's really nice). I'll be offline for a week and

might not remember.

Blessings to you,

Sounds yummy, but...

It also sounds like you'd be eating an *awful* lot of almonds just in one

muffin - maybe 1/2-3/4 of a cup even.

Unless - do they expand a lot, like flour?

[Guest guest]

Hi . They really don't rise like normal muffins. They are short, but

they are as light as a feather. Depending on how well you grind the nuts. I

have a nut seed grinder that will turn almonds into flour. A friend made them

in her blender and they were a little bit nuttier. Both ways they were

wonderful. And yes, you are eating alot of ground nuts. But since almonds have

good levels of magnesium in them and most people are low in mag, they are a nice

source of mag I think. And they have more like 1/3rd a cup, I think. Haven't

calculated it. Just going by looks.
