Some of the test reports from our last round of funding are now complete. You’ll find the results below as well I’ve created a new “Test Reports” page where I will house all the test reports we have done going forward in one easy to find location!

Young Living:
Julia says
I am wondering if YL (and the other essential oil makers) know that these oils are being tested? I would imagine that they would send unadulterated products. In other words. How do you obtain the sample of the essential oils that you test? If they are all being sent to you, then all the essential oil companies are on notice to only send you unadulterated samples.
Miles J says
Hi Julia,
The companies have no idea who will be placing the order (it’s not always in my name) and who it’s being sent to at the lab so they wouldn’t have a chance to be “on watch” like that.

Stephanie, you need to stop being a Pollyanna and accept scientific facts for what they are – irrefutable truth.
Brenda says
It seems like the oils are generally always fine, even when your independent tests show an issue. The oil companies often seem to have a good explanation for why your independent testing gives their oil a failing grade.
Has Young Living given an explanation for the cinnamon bark essential oil issue that you uncovered? Do you distrust Young Living now?
I started using Young Living oils daily about 3 months ago.
Thanks for all you’re doing!
Brenda
Stephanie says
I refuse to let hate and anger change my opinion on Young Living. Stay the course!
Lucy says
I am really interested in these findings. What conclusion have you come to about the oils now? What is your opinion on YL quality after seeing the test results? I am a firm believer in ethical practices, and it truly concerns me that YL claims a transparency that you are saying is not actually there. I appreciate what you are doing and I would love to know what company you are using now for oils. Thanks!
Stephanie says
Just because this person doesn’t believe in Young Living, doesn’t mean they aren’t legit or have transparency. Have you tried reaching out to Young Living I don’t understand why people are so full of hate and distrust. I refuse to live life that way.
Jennifer says
Science doesn’t have any emotions. Science is based on fact.
Mandi says

Great news! Thanks Miles!
Melissa Barnhart says
I’m wondering about the quality of new directions oils.
Trish Kristek says
I’ve been using them for years. It seems to be a good company. My friends family had a business and this is who they used.
Cynthia says
And I’m wondering about the quality of the oils for the Ananda Apothecary?
