This is what we call Young Living’s Seed to Seal® process.
And it is unmatched. Every step from planting to bottling is detailed and controlled.
But Young Living is more expensive, right? You’re right, oftentimes they are, and “you get what you pay for” has never been more accurate. Young Living is more expensive than other brands and oils you can find at Whole Foods, on Amazon, or even the Target dollar spot because of its Seed to Seal promise. An ever-growing number of marketers have jumped on the essential oil bandwagon looking for an easy way to make a lot of money. Most of these oils are cheap imitations, purchased wholesale in large quantities, diluted with synthetic additives, and rebottled before being sold to you.
That’s not okay for us. We want the best for our families, and we don’t want to “save money” short-term only to spend more long-term because we used something that didn’t do what it was supposed to or even harmed us. When we are working to be more intentional to remove chemicals and toxins from our homes, it doesn't make sense to then buy oils that could potentially contain harmful or synthetic ingredients, especially if you plan on using them on or around your children. No thank you.
Some of the other companies may claim that their oils are organic. Unfortunately, the term “organic” is not regulated by the FDA in regard to essential oils. They do not certify or grade essential oils so any oil you see making those claims is simply using the word. They did not have to do anything to earn it.
If you cannot walk onto your oil company's farms and watch them distill their oils at their very own distilleries, then don't use it. There’s a reason Young Living has been the world leader in essential oils for 25+ years and possesses better than organic standards! Yes!!!
