Cleaning and Disinfecting
A few drops of oil may be added to the dishwasher to help disinfect and purify. Some popular oils are pine, orange, tangerine, lemon, and peppermint, although any antibacterial oil would work well.
When painting, add 1 teaspoon of your favorite essential oil to one gallon of paint. Mix well. The oil will counteract the unpleasant smell of paint.
Because essential oils are not fatty oils, they will not leave oil spots on the walls.
Laundry
Essential oils may be used to enhance the cleanliness and fragrance of your laundry. As unpleasant as it seems, dust mites live in your bedding, feeding
from the dead skin cells you constantly shed. Recent research has shown that eucalyptus oil kills dust mites. To achieve effective dust mite control, add 25
drops of eucalyptus to each load, or approximately 1 tablespoon to a bottle of liquid laundry detergent.
You may also add several drops of essential oils to the rinse cycle, such as fir, spruce, juniper, lavender, cedarwood, wintergreen, or rosewood.
Instead of using toxic and irritating softening agents in the dryer, place a washcloth dampened with 10 drops of lavender, lemon, rnelaleuca, berga-
mot, or other essential oils. While the oils will not reduce static cling, they will impart a distinctive fragrance to the clothes.
Floors and Carpets
By combining essential oils with common household products, you can create your own nontoxic aromatic t100r and carpet cleaners.
To clean non-carpeted floors, add 1/4 cup of white vinegar to a bucket of water. Then add 5-10 drops of lemon, pine, spruce, Melaleuca alternifolia, Thieves oil blend, or another suitable oil. If the t100r is especially dirty, add several drops of dishwashing soap. This will clean even the dirtiest fl00r.
To make a carpet freshener, add 16-20 drops of essential oils to a cup of baking soda or borax powder. Mix well and place in a covered container overnight so that the oil can be absorbed. Sprinkle over your carpet
the next day and then vacuum the powder up.
You may also saturate a disposable cloth or tissue with several drops of essential oil and place it into the collecting bag of your vacuum. This will diffuse a pleasant odor as you clean. If your vacuum collects dirt into water, simply add a few drops into the water reservoir before cleaning. This refreshes both the carpet and the room.
Deodorizing: Kitchens and Bathrooms
The kitchen and bathroom are often a source of odors and bacteria. Use the following mixtures to freshen, deodorize, and disinfect the air, work areas,
cupboards, bathroom fixtures, sinks, tiles, woodwork, carpets, etc. These blends are safe for the family and the environment.
Since essential oils separate easily from water, always shake well and keep on shaking the bottle as you use these mixtures. They will deodorize and
clean the air, instead of covering the odors.

Diffused oils alter the structure of molecules that create odors, rather than just masking them. They also increase oxygen availability, produce negative ions, and release natural ozone. Many essential oils such as lemongrass, orange, grapefruit, Eucalyptus globulus, tea tree, lavender, frankincense, and lemon, along with essential oil blends (Purification and Thieves), are extremely effective for eliminating and destroying airborne germs and bacteria.
A cold-air diffuser is designed to atomize a micro fine mist of essential oils into the air, where they can remain suspended for several hours. Unlike aroma lamps or candles, a diffuser disperses essential oils without heating or burning, which can render the oil therapeutically less beneficial and even create toxic compounds. Burned oils may become carcinogenic. Research shows that cold air diffusing certain oils may: Read the rest of this entry »
Sciatica is characterized by pain in the buttocks and down the back of the thigh. The pain worsens during coughing, sneezing, or extension or flexion of the back. The pain is caused by pressure on the sciatic nerve as it leaves the spine in the lower pelvic region, due to spinal misalignment, nerve inflammation or both. The sciatic nerve is the largest in the body, with branches throughout the legs and feet, and sciatica pain can be intense and immobilizing.
Acute sciatica has a sudden onset and is usually triggered by a misaligned vertebra pressing against the sciatic nerve due to accident, injury, pregnancy, or inflammation.
Symptoms:
- Lower back pain
- Swelling or stiffness in a leg
- Loss of sensation in a leg
- Muscle wasting in a leg
Sulfurzyme, Super B and Omega Blue Softgels work well together to help rebuild nerve damage and the myelin sheath. Read the rest of this entry »
Fibromyalgia is an autoimmune disorder of soft tissues. Symptoms include general body pain, in some parts worse than others, usually brought on by short periods of exercise.
The pain is ubiquitous and continuous. It interrupts sleep patterns so that the fourth stage of sleep is never attained, and thus the body cannot rejuvenate and heal. Fibromyalgia is an acid condition in which the liver is toxic.
The best natural treatments for fibromyalgia are omeg-3 fats such as flax seed, proteolytic enzymes such as bromelain and pancreatin and MSM.
According to UCLA researcher, Ronald Lawrence, M.D. Ph.D., supplementation with MSM often offers a breakthrough in the treatment of fibromyalgia. Read the rest of this entry »
