Sustainable and responsible sourcing of essential oils
Not all essential oils are produced in the same way. Some companies, in an effort to cut costs, use lower-quality plants or add cheap fillers. While this approach may save money, it leads to a significant decline in the quality of the oils. Unfortunately, many production methods used in the essential oil industry not only reduce quality but also harm the environment and often involve unfair treatment of farmers and growers.
What is the origin of doTERRA essential oils?
When it comes to the quality of essential oils, the key factor is the source. doTERRA is committed to responsible and sustainable sourcing practices to produce the highest quality oils—without compromise. We care not only about protecting the natural environment but also about fair treatment of all harvesters and growers.
