We received a letter from Dr. David Hill which we are sharing with Medical Practitioners regarding doTERRA Essential Oils. Here is that letter: Dear Practitioner,... Essential oils in patient care is an exciting and developing opportunity. Over the past several years I have witnessed and experienced a greater interest for research and specific models of health care application. One of the most appealing attributes of essential oils is their extensive application. In the hospital environment they have been utilized as an adjunct to traditional therapy models and in some case have been utilized as preferable treatment. In Asian and European cultures there is an aggressive approach for the use of essential oils in medicine. A more reserved but yet consistent outlook has been fostered in the United States. There is growing interest in private practice for greater understanding and reliable information to be shared with patients who may be choosing to use essential oils on their own. I perceive this to be of great benefit to them and to the physicians who choose to discover their value. Evidence based protocols and information is a primary concern. Currently there are thousands of peer-reviewed medical studies suggesting the value of essential oils in modern medical practice. These studies have been focused on many major concerns in medicine, namely the progression of specific disease like cancer. As a result there are many ongoing studies focused on more understanding regarding specific pathways and chemical activity. The conclusion is often that essential oils are potent therapeutic agents. While the willingness to abandon current practice models is ill-advised it does offer potential for effective secondary care with what should be considered potent and effective therapeutic agents. The use of essential oils is not limited to specific disease care. There is much to consider in the daily routine of more common ailments many of which can be suitably addressed through personalized family care. Certainly individuals have found benefit in using essential oils as an alternative to common other-the-counter medicines. Essential oils have a long documented history and are effective and safe when used as medicines for personal health. While many medical professionals are open and may embrace such principles it is critical that there be recognition for the quality of oils utilized in practiced. Many essential oils in the open market are synthetic derivatives of the natural oil produced from plants. The research is beginning to illustrate clearly that synthetic oils are not as effective and do not create the same benefit as pure or non-synthetic essential oils. I would recommend that anyone who has an interest in the use of essential oils for therapeutic benefit understand the quality of the oil first. I invite you to explore the possibilities that exist with essential oils and participate in the development of the most appropriate models for use and application through personal experience and active patient care. kindly, Dr. David Hill Chief Medical Officer Chairman Scientific Advisory Board doTERRA International, LLC
