    While this is probably true of the population as a whole, you will be relieved to learn that the doterra pushers I know are all pro-vaccine. At least for now.

      Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

      There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

        Awesome. I love John Oliver.

          Here is one of my favorite John Oliver rants.

          "Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

          Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

            Hey, this isn't the John Oliver thread. GTSOH!

                Doctor explains how essential oils compare to antibiotics:

                  Oh Lord.
                  Harvard grads are not immune to the draw of money. I'm guessing this is his highest paid three minutes of the year.
                  Why again should I be listening to an orthopedic surgeon's opinion on antibiotic resistance? Is he using Doterra for septic joints (hint: no, or he no longer has a license)? I'll give you another reason why bacterial resistance never occurs with essential oils (it's kind of like the reason they have no side effects).

                    While waiting for our flight home Sunday, we were surrounded by a bunch of DoTerrans (was there a convention or something in SLC?), all totally amped about their wonderful product line. They were essentially street tracting around gates B 21-25. One sat behind me, chatting up the sad sack sitting next to her. Included in her pitch was the following line: "These oils are so effective that many physicians are now using them in their treatment of patients." I'm sure she would not lie or embellish, so I want to know why our heretofore esteemed panel of docs hasn't jumped on the DoTerra bandwagon. Probably falling behind on their CME requirements.

                    And I was bummed nobody approached me, as my personal field was white and ready to harvest.

                      Whatever, dude. Essential oils sidestep natural selection completely. That's why there's no antibiotic resistance.

                        I wonder if you met my SIL. She came away rejoicing about the blessings of oil. It was like a devotional to her.

                          My friend also came away from the doTerra conference very uplifted. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that she is now Blue Diamond. A little googling reveals that the average Blue Diamond doTerra rep makes $450,000 per year.

                                I can't see the link. Does this Harvard grad Orthopaedic surgeon practice in SL?
