Are doTERRA Essential Oils Toxic to Liver Functions? If the essential oils come from a company which adds synthetic compounds to their oils, then yes, this would be true. However, if the essential oils come from a company like doTERRA, that doesn’t add anything to their oils, then no. This is not true, as long as the oils are used in moderation. Even drinking too much water can be toxic to your system, but it’s good in moderate amounts.

Are doTERRA Essential Oils Toxic to Liver Functions? Are There Exceptions?

Yep. Certain oils metabolize more slowly in the liver. However, this does not mean they are toxic. These simply take longer to break down in the liver than others and should be used intermittently. These oils include:

Eugenol is the active ingredient in (Clove – considered THE most potent antioxidant essential oil)
Cinnamaldehyde (Cassia and Cinnamon)
Carvacrol (Oregano and Thyme – considered two of the most potent antioxidant oils)

What about the above oils in a blend like OnGuard or DDR Prime?

Chemistry changes dramatically when you combine with other oils
The constituents function differently – not the same effect in a blend
Blends contain reduced amounts of the above oils

So, the toxicity isn’t the issue. It’s a matter of using too much too often so the body can’t break down the oils as rapidly. So, use less oils. So, instead of taking 8 drops of oregano once a day, it’s much better to use 1 drop every two hours since it takes 30-120 minutes to break down the oils.

Note – these are my notes from the doTERRA 2014 Convention from a presentation done by Laura Jacobs.

doTERRA Review from Member Since 2014

"I began my doTERRA journey when I went home for Christmas 2013 and my sister shared her Wild Orange Essential Oil with me and I loved it. Rebecca has been such a blessing educating me on Doterra oils that I have now signed up under her as an LRP.

Her communication skills are the best I’ve seen in years. I’m impressed on how quickly she responds to me, always responding with excellence. I never have to get frustrated in waiting for a response or having to repeat my question to her. She is extremely thorough and responsive.

I love her passion and continual efforts to forward practical information out to her LRPs. I believe Rebecca wants the best for her family and wants to share her bests with the world. I am grateful our paths have crossed even though we are miles apart. I hope someday to meet up with her to give her thanks in person for changing my life and my family’s life for the better."
