Why dōTERRA?
When you use a dōTERRA essential oil, you’re using an oil that is pure, with no contaminants, fillers or adulterations.
Why did I choose dōTERRA?
Many people often ask why I choose dōTERRA oils exclusively for myself and my family...
Did you know the essential oil industry is actually not regulated by any agency?
This means companies are free to dilute oils, use synthetics, pesticides, and even utilize parts of the plant that do not have therapeutic properties? And they can do all that and still label their oils as "pure".
I'm not ok with that. I need be sure the oils I'm using for me and my family are safe and effective.
So what makes dōTERRA different and sets them apart from EVERY other oil company out there? dōTERRA is not only the largest essential oil company in the world but they also set the bar for essential oil quality and purity, exceeding industry standards, and ensuring the oils you are buying are not only going to be effective but also be safe.

dōTERRA Sourcing
With more than 140 origin oils in its product line, dōTERRA sources its oils from over 45 countries. They travel the world to find the purest oils and sourcing them where the plants indigenously grow.
This ensures the potency of the oil is optimized by growing in its organic region with naturally controlled, sunlight, altitude, water, soil and temperature. Many essential oil providers farm and produce the oils themselves in unnatural conditions, but not dōTERRA.
dōTERRA partners directly with farmers that have been harvesting the land and plants for generations. The farmers follow stringent standards including using no pesticides or chemicals, utilizing only the therapeutic part of the plant and a proprietary distillation process is used that doTERRA oversees.
Through the co-impact sourcing initiative dōTERRA also helps build schools, housing, health clinics, provide running water and more to these incredible communities all over the world.
You can see why choosing dōTERRA is an easy choice for me.. I know what I get is pure, and I know it's supporting generations for thousands of farmers and families all over the world.
dōTERRA Testing
dōTERRA oils are the most tested essential oils and the most trusted essential oils.
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. Many essential oils on the market are created to be "fragrant", meaning they have no therapeutic properties.
Each batch of dōTERRA essential oils goes through a battery of rigorous tests to ensure you and your family receive only the most pure, potent, and therapeutic oils on earth.
dōTERRA runs 54 types of testing on every liter of oil produced to ensure its pure and potent. Every liter is also sent out for third party testing. No other company is as transparent as this, they want you to know you are getting the very best! If the oil does not pass the test it will not be sold, period.
For me this was the largest determining factor in deciding to use dōTERRA for my family. If it's going on our skin, I need to be sure it's not compromised in any way.
dōTERRA Transparency
dōTERRA begins the CPTG testing process shortly after distillation, when each oil is reviewed for its chemical composition. The dōTERRA production facility carries out a second round of testing to ensure that the oils distilled and tested during the first round are the same ones that arrived at our facility. A third review of the chemistry of the oils is conducted as the oils are packaged into the bottles before they’re shipped out to consumers.
Each test confirms that our essential oils are free of contaminants and that no unexpected alterations occurred during production.
