Infectious disease kills more people worldwide than any other single cause. Infectious diseases are caused by germs or living organisms that are found in the air, soil, and water. When you contract a bacterial infection, a doctor will most likely prescribe an antibiotic. Imagine taking your child to the Doctor for a serious bacterial infection such as pneumonia or strep, only to be told the bacteria you are trying to fight has developed a resistance to antibiotics. This scenario has become a reality for millions of people, worldwide. The Center for Disease Control’s top public health concern is the rise of Antibiotic resistance bacteria or “Superbugs.” Over the last decade, almost every type of bacteria has become stronger, and less responsive to antibiotic treatment.
Certainly, many people have benefited from using antibiotics. However, the resistance build-up is not the only problem with this method of disease control. Infectious diseases or bad bacteria aren’t the only organisms that antibiotics kill. Antibiotics also wipe out the ‘good bacteria’ that grows in your gut, upsetting the delicate balance of your intestinal terrain and opening the door for harmful bacteria to establish themselves in their place. This vicious cycle could also toughen up some bacteria by encouraging them to mutate and develop drug resistance. The ‘good bacteria in your gut is extremely CRUCIAL for your immune system and most bodily systems to function properly.
Essential oils are the subtle, precious liquids that are distilled from plants, flowers, trees, roots, and seeds. They are naturally antibiotic and antiviral. Essential oils represent a gentle, supportive approach to health, because of their chemical structure, they are able to metabolize in the cell-like other nutrients. Thus not disrupting the bodi’s systems but supporting them to maintain good health. The chemistry of essential oil is so complex, that microorganisms cannot develop a resistance to them through mutation. There are too many different chemical factors to overcome, and bacteria cannot outsmart their natural chemical makeup. A century of research and evaluation has confirmed that essential oils are effective antimicrobial agents, and don’t have the side effects that accompany antibiotics.
Essential oils contain oxygenating molecules that transport nutrients to the cells of the body. Illness and disease cannot exist in an oxygen-rich environment. If the cell has been deprived of oxygen, the cell wall hardens and nothing can pass in or out of it. The primary constituent of essential oils is oxygen. They are also lipids soluble, and because of this can easily penetrate a cell membrane. The essential oil has the ability to soften the hardened cell membrane, penetrate it, and re-oxygenate the cell. This allows the cell to function normally again. Bacterias grow outside of a cell wall and a virus is a disease that is within the cell, thus essential oils are very effective in the treatment of viruses because of their cell-penetrating abilities.
Each essential oil also has a specific frequency. Our organs and body systems, as well as the nutrients needed to maintain optimum health also contain a frequency. The oil’s electrical affinity in these components of our bodies enhances and supports one’s organs and body systems, and aids in the assimilation of nutrients. Essential oils in the higher frequency ranges tend to influence emotions. Those in the lower frequencies have more effect on structural and physical changes, including cells, hormones, and bones, as well as viruses, bacteria, and fungi. Clinical research shows that essential oils have the highest frequency of any natural substance known to man, creating an environment in which disease, bacteria, viruses, and fungus cannot live.
