ON GUARD!

OnGuard™ in an essential oil blend formulated by dōTERRA® that is a powerful immune system defense. A blend of five essential oils are combined to provide an extremely potent combo designed (and proven) to kill harmful bacteria, mold, and viruses. This blend can be diffused into the air, taken internally, applied topically, and even used for household cleaning.

What makes it so potent? These individual essential oils.

1. Wild Orange: antibacterial, antifungal, antidepressant, and antiseptic. Its effectiveness against colds and flu is exceptional. It also tastes delicious.

2. Clove Bud: antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-infectious, anti-parasitic, antiviral, a strong antiseptic, and an immune stimulant. Very high in anti-oxidants, and may influence healing and protection.

3. Cinnamon Bark: has very specific purposes in that it is a powerful oxygenator, and purifier, and also enhances the activity of other oils. It has a stimulating and toning effect on the whole body, particularly the circulatory system. As well, it is a very effective blood sugar regulator. Its properties include: antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-infectious, anti-parasitic, antiviral, antiseptic, antimicrobial, and    an immune stimulant, as well as warming. Again, it tastes amazing!

4. Eucalyptus Radiata: Strong antiviral effect upon the respiratory system. It is also a strong antibacterial, anticatarrhal (expectorant that removes excess mucus from the respiratory system), and is antiseptic.

5. Rosemary: analgesic, antibacterial, anticatarrhal, antifungal, anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant. Is excellent for colds and flu for all the above reasons, also stimulating to the nervous system, improves circulation, reduces mental fatigue, energizes the solar plexus, and may help balance heart function.

Given that essential oils are x50 to x70 more potent than dried herbs, one can see that this blend will help not only treat an existing condition and knock it out, but act as a powerful preventative for active viruses and bacteria.

USAGE:

To use, you can diffuse 5 drops in the doTERRA Lotus diffuser, add a couple of drops to water and drink, put 3 drops in a gel cap and take with a glass of water, or apply a couple of drops to the soles of the feet. The latter would be ideal for children.

As the strength of this blend can be too hot for the skin (apart from bottoms of the feet), dilute a few drops with some vegetable oil and apply to the thymus gland (just below the center of the collar bones) to stimulate the immune system, massage under the arms to stimulate the lymph, or over the abdomen. Rub both hands together and inhale. Inhaling is very effective and takes the tiny but potent oil molecules straight into the system.

As well, you can use the OnGuard™ blend to clean surfaces in the house by diluting with water in a spray bottle and wiping counters. Other products in the OnGuard™ line include throat protecting lozenges, hand wash, and sanitizing hand wipes.

I know people who have been surrounded by ill folks and used OnGuard™ consistently and escaped getting colds and flu. It is also useful for food poisoning or other bacterial infections. Great for plane travel or any public exposure. And wonderful for school kids, too.

Available as part of the Family Physician Kit, or as a single 15 ml bottle. Throat drops, hand wipes & hand soap available.
