doTERRA On Guard Protective Blend Essential Oil Uses

The day I discovered doTERRA On Guard is a day my life changed dramatically for the better. For reals. I am finally empowered to take care of myself and my children. In the past seven years or so that I have been a member of doTERRA, I have had options.

If I start to get worn down from not sleeping enough and get that tickle in my throat, all I have to do is put one drop of On Guard in an empty gel cap and drink it with some water and by the next morning, I forget I was even feeling down.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard of things going around the neighborhood and we don’t get them any more (or least not as severely) – and the main thing I do is put a drop of On Guard on my children’s feet every night before they go to bed. Prevention is key.

As one of doTERRA’s most popular oils, On Guard is a powerful proprietary blend that supports healthy immune function* and contains cleansing properties.

Our oil blend has a greater range of applications and it can be used topically, aromatically, and internally. This is one of my favorites to diffuse at home, especially going back to school, because of its protective benefits. Keeping my family safe from environmental threats is high on my priority list.

This is one of my favorite oils not only because of the amazing benefits it brings to my family after a long day at school/work but because it smells so good! Diffusing On Guard along with Wild Orange and Lemon creates a lovely scent that uplifts my family and boosts their immune system at the same time.

Another of my favorite ways to use this oil is the On Guard Beadlets. They are 1/4th of a drop of oil from the bottle which is the perfect amount if you need a quick pick-me-up.

I also love the cleaner concentrate cause I feel like it’s really cleaning the surfaces of my house and not just pushing stuff around. They also have toothpaste, soap and a spray our family uses regularly to help us support healthy immune function. We go through quite a lot of it but it’s totally worth it!

You can see from the list below it’s popular in food recipes and for DIY cleaning recipes. Check out some of the great ideas below! It is one of the most popular oil blends at dōTERRA because of its wide range of uses. How have you used the oil in your home?

doTERRA On Guard Uses

15 Uses

  1. Sniffle Season Relief. Diffuse On Guard Protective Blend anytime you are concerned about ‘what’s going around’ schools, sports arenas, churches and other crowded venues.
  2. Get Turbo Charged. Mix a few drops of On Guard with 2 drops Lemon and honey or agave nectar in a teaspoon to soothe your throat during the winter.
  3. Primp Your Carpets. Add 15 drops of On Guard to a cup of cornstarch or baking soda. Mix, sprinkle and rake on the carpet then allow it to sit for up to an hour. Then, vacuum it clean
  4. Rub-A-Tub Tub…In a Pleasing Way. Mix 5-6 drops with a half cup of baking soda to clean your bathtub and skip all of the harsh, bleaching chemicals.
  5. Be Naturally On Guard, All Day. Let On Guard blend with Wild Orange, Clove, Cinnamon *, Eucalyptus, and Rosemary assist in the work of immune support and maintenance. One of the most popular ways to use On Guard is to add a few drops to a Veggie Capsule and swallow. It does wonders.
  6. Augment Your Air Filters. Diffusing can work miracles, but you can also put a few drops of On Guard on your car’s cabin air filter or home air filters to obliterate dank, stale filtered air…right from the duct
  7. “An Ounce Of Prevention…” Some people amp up their Zinc or Vitamin C intake (via orange juice) every autumn. If this is you, add a few drops of On Guard to your juice for added protection.

For a clean toothbrush, store it overnight in a small glass of water with 3-5 drops of On Guard.

About Best Essential Oils

My husband and I have been using natural solutions since before we were married, so when we were introduced to doTERRA essential oils about seven years ago it didn’t take long before we were addicted! We love how pure and potent they are.

We started this blog so we could share our experiences and you could learn all about doTERRA essential oils too!

I also blog at MyNaturalFamily.com.

      I’m not sure, cause I don’t really know what a wound vac is. I do know that when I had a small surgery on my leg and it would hurt, I found tons of relief from putting a drop of frankincense right on it. It was too sensitive for me to directly touch it, but the drop worked for the light surface pain and then I used a prescription for the deep down pain.
