Thieves
essential oil blend with Young Living’s
patented diffusing system creates a safe and
simple means of filling your home with therapeutic
benefits. Many forms of bacteria and mold spores
linked to many common ailments can travel through
the air. Diffusing Thieves adds an extra layer
of protection by purifying the air while adding
an uplifting scent
to your home.
A
diffuser is a special air pump designed to disburse
essential oils in a micro-fine vapor where they
stay suspended for several hours to reduce airborne
infectious pathogens, fungus, mold and freshen
the air with natural fragrances.
Therapeutic
Benefits
Diffusing
therapeutic-grade essential oils releases oxygenating
molecules as well as negative ions, which reduce
bacteria in the air (air purifier, ionizer).
Young Living's diffuser (vaporizer) uses a special
air pump custom designed to disperse the oils
in a micro-fine vapor so they stay suspended
for several hours and freshen the air with natural
fragrances. The diffuser disperses essential
oil without the heating or burning that can
render the essential oil therapeutically less
beneficial.
Diffusing
releases oxygenating molecules as well as negative
ions, which kill microbes. Testing at Weber
State University proves conclusively that diffusing
essential oils kills life-threatening airborne
micro-organisms.
Protect
your environment from bacterial invasion by
using aromatherapy with essential oils. Essential
oils can prevent and protect the the body from
bacterial invasion. Essential oils have been
used since ancient Egypt, as they protect against
pathogenic health disasters.
You
can take essential oils two ways, by diffusion
and direct application. When essential oil is
diffused into the atmosphere of a home or office,
the air becomes purified, purged of harmful
bacteria, fungus and mold with 100% effectiveness.
Essential oils kill and destroy infectious bacteria
within seconds of contact. Aromatic molecules
are breathed into the body, where they trigger
numerous immune-boosting, healing and relaxation
responses.
Diffusers
come in various styles and work in various ways,
but the most effective ones use a glass nebulizer
which is attached to a small aquarium style
air pump. Depending on style, the nebulizer
may be attached to a bottle containing essential
oil, or have an opening to add them by the drop.
Diffused by vibration and pushed by the force
of air within the nebulizer, a fine mist of
oil is released into the air where it remains
suspended for up to several hours.
Many
people diffuse three times a day for 10 to 30
minutes each period. The benefits are immense
when one considers the health hazards we expose
ourselves to daily.
In Marseilles, a garlic-vinegar preparation known as the Four Thieves was credited with protecting many of the people when a plague struck that city (1722). Some say that the preparation originated with four thieves who confessed that they used it with complete protection against the plague while they robbed the bodies of the dead. Others claim that a man named Richard Forthave developed and sold the preparation, and that the 'medicine' was originally referred to as Forthave's. However, with the passing of time, his surname became corrupted to Four Thieves. (Credit 1) (Credit 2)
But D. Gary Young, founder of Young Living, is probably most responsible for the story reaching the legendary status it enjoys today.
As mentioned above, Young Living's Thieves essential oil blend was created based on the historical account of four thieves in France who protected themselves from the Black Plague with cloves, rosemary, and other aromatics while robbing victims of the killer disease. When captured, they were offered a lighter sentence in exchange for their secret recipe. Young Living's proprietary Thieves oil blend includes clove, cinnamon bark, rosemary, lemon, and Eucalyptus radiata and has been specially blended to offer the same kind of defense. Thieves has been university tested and found to be highly effective against airborne bacteria.1

This is the period of time responsible for the bizarre images of physicians wearing dark robes, wide-brimmed hats, and masks with long beaks. These beaks held dried herbs, spices and essential oils which the physician breathed. The robe was doused with a similar fragrant concoction. Scientific evidence today is building support for this seemingly outrageous behavior. Many harmful microbes can't survive in the presence of certain essential oils.

YOUNG LIVING ESSENTIAL OILS are the world leader in cultivation, distillation, and production pure, therapeutic-grade essential oil and aromatherapy products.
Interested in going green? These oils and the products produced from them are very green; you could not get more green. They are the living volatile liquid from plants, its lifeforce, full of vitality and healing properties. Why Young Living Essential Oils? It's all about terroir, climate, fresh water and clean air, and a strict distillation process.
ESSENTIAL OILS, known as nature’s living energy, are the natural, aromatic volatile liquids found in shrubs, flowers, trees, roots, bushes, and seeds. The distinctive components in essential oils defend plants against insects, environmental conditions, and disease. They are also vital for a plant to grow, live, evolve, and adapt to its surroundings. Essential oils are extracted from aromatic plant sources via steam distillation, and are highly concentrated and far more potent than dry herbs.
While essential oils often have a pleasant aroma, their chemical makeup is complex and their benefits vast—which makes them much more than something that simply smells good.
ESSENTIAL OILS are found in the circulating vascular fluids of plants. These vascular fluids containing the essential oils perform may of the same functions in the plant's body as blood does in ours. In addition, because their molecular structure is so high in oxygen, they may help to nourish, strengthen, rebuild and restore the body to greater and more vibrant health. The oils are the immune system of the plant. Since it takes 5,000 pounds of rose petals to produce one pound of rose oil, the effectiveness of the oil is many times greater than the dried or powdered plant.

Through
extensive research and commitment to quality, Young Living is
dedicated to growing, distilling, manufacturing, and
marketing the highest-quality organic essential oils
& oil-enhanced products in the world.
The key to producing a quality essential oil is to preserve the delicate compounds of the aromatic plant through expert distillation. The proper process of steam distillation—passing steam through the plant material and condensing the steam to separate the oil from the plant—is strictly adhered to with all YLTG essential oils (Young Living Therapeutic Grade). Proper temperature must be maintained throughout the distillation process, and pressure, length of time, equipment, and batch size are strictly monitored. This ensures that the naturally-occurring compounds contained in each essential oil product are of the highest and most consistent bioactive levels.
Historically, essential oils have played a prominent role in everyday life. With more than 200 references to aromatics, incense, and ointments throughout the Bible, essential oils are said to be used for anointing and healing the sick. Today, essential oils are used for aromatherapy, massage therapy, emotional health, personal care, nutritional supplements, household solutions, and much more.
Young Living Essential Oils, the leading provider of essential oils, offers more than 300 essential oil singles and blends. All Young Living essential oils meet the YLTG standard. This means that every essential oil Young Living distills or sources has the optimal naturally-occurring blend of constituents to maximize the desired effect. Only YLTG essential oils should be used for the primary methods of application, which include inhalation and application. (Credit 3)
Young Living is the World Leader in cultivation, distillation, and production of pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils and aromatherapy oils.
ESSENTIAL OILS are considered mankind’s first medicine and have been used around the world for centuries. Essential oils and other aromatics have been used in religious rituals, to treat various illnesses, and for other physical and spiritual needs.
Research dates the use of essential oils back to 4500 BC. Ancient Egyptians were the first to discover the potential of fragrance, and records demonstrate that oils and aromatics were used for treating illness and performing rituals and religious ceremonies in temples and pyramids. In fact, three oils that are still commonly used today—cedarwood, myrrh, and frankincense—were used in the embalming process. (Credit 1)
According to ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics and Chinese manuscripts, priests and physicians used oils thousand of years before the time of Christ. There are more than 188 references to oils in the Bible, and some precious oils like frankincense, myrrh, rosemary, cassia, and cinnamon were used for the anointing and healing of the sick. Additionally, biblical prophets recognized the use of essential oils as protection against disease. (Credit 2)
The reintroduction of essential oils into modern medicine first began during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Since that time essential oils have been used traditionally to kill harmful germs, as well as spiritually to balance mood, lift spirits, and dispel negative emotions.
The process Young Living uses when planting, cultivating, harvesting, and distilling a batch of oil is crucial to retaining its vital compounds. Without the exact blend of naturally-occurring plant chemicals, an essential oil can lose its beneficial properties and fail to produce the desired effect.
Young Living Therapeutic Grade (YLTG) means that every essential oil Young Living distills or sources has the optimal naturally-occurring blend of constituents to maximize the desired effect. Young Living is able to make this assertion because of our strict cultivation process—illustrated by the Four Ps—that guarantees the optimal potency of every Young Living essential oil.
Plants An oil's potency can be affected not only by selecting the proper plant to cultivate, but also by where the plant is grown, the quality of soil in which the seed is planted, and even the time of day it's harvested.
Young Living has extensive experience selecting the correct species of plant for desired oil potency, planting under optimal conditions, using ideal soil and natural methods to encourage growth, and knowing the precise time to harvest each crop. Only those plants that produce the most active and widest array of therapeutic compounds are selected.
Preparation Once the optimal soil, plant, cultivation, and harvesting conditions have been adhered to, the plants must be distilled properly in order to meet Young Living Therapeutic Grade standards. Young Living uses a gentle, proprietary technique for steam-extracting the most potent essential oils, which remains unmatched throughout the essential oils industry.
To meet Young Living Therapeutic Grade distillation standards proper temperature must be maintained throughout the distillation process, and pressure, length of time, equipment, and batch size are strictly monitored.
Purity Young Living Therapeutic Grade standards prohibit the acceptance of any diluted, cut or adulterated oils. Every product Young Living produces—essential oils, oil blends, nutritional supplements, or personal care—meets strict purity standards.
Every batch of essential oils is subjected to rigorous, state-of-the-art analysis at the Young Living chemistry lab. Using some of the most advanced equipment in the world, our scientists subject every batch of essential oils to Gas Chromatograph and Mass Spectrometer testing, and heavy metals analysis. Oils that exhibit even the slightest hint of possible adulteration or tampering are rejected.
Potency The culmination of the preceding three stages, Potency means that the naturally occurring compounds contained in each essential oil product are of the highest and most consistent bioactive levels. Without strict adherence to the Young Living Therapeutic Grade standard in the Plant, Preparation, and Purity phases, the final product would not have the necessary potency to create the desired effect.
