How to Protect your Family from Flu
and Viruses with Thieves Oil
by Melodie Kantner
The Story of Thieves Oil
Young Living's Thieves essential oil blend was created
based on the historical story of four thieves in Europe 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. In
modern days, these same herbs and essential oils have
been found to be an effective barrier against topical and
airborne microorganisms.
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 as it did in the fifteenth century.
Thieves oil has been university tested and found to be
highly effective in supporting the immune system and
good health.
Let's face it, germs, bacteria and respiratory viruses that
surround us have never been stronger, or more
antibiotic-resistant. That's why it's more important than
ever to keep your health on alert against attacks to your
immune system.

millions of bacteria, which can cause illness, according to
the study.

Experiences with Thieves Oil
"I have used 2 or 3 drops of Thieves in my drinking water
daily for 6 years now and have not had any outbreak of
flu's or colds. I have had beginning symptoms but I
immediately take alkalime to alkalize my system, and
drink extra Thieves in water and if necessary take
capsules with Oregano, Mountain Savory, Lemon and a
little Longevity as well.
It works everytime. I have got rid of sore throats, bladder
infections and yeast infections taking capsules of oils
within 24 hours! I LOVE OUR OILS!!!!!" -- Julie

"Thieves works well when getting a cold. One time in
particular when starting with a stuffed up nose and sore
throat, a couple drops of Thieves dropped directly in the
mouth which was immediately felt as the oil moved right
to the sore spot in the throat. The Thieves oil brought on
a tingling feeling there and within a half hour the throat
felt perfectly fine. It’s important to catch symptoms
immediately for fast and lasting relief." -- Karen
