Thieves™


In the 15th century, there was a terrible plague in France.  People were constantly getting sick and dying, and, because of sickness or fear of sickness, nobody wanted to tend to the sick or bury the dead.  But there was a group of four thieves, who robbed the dead and dying, but didn't get sick!  Why didn't they get sick?
 Nobody knew, until, finally, the robbers were arrested.  They were compelled to reveal their secret, in order to recieve a less severe punishment.  The secret was their blend of herbs, spices, and oils, which guarded them against illness.

On this formula is based the essential oil blend Thieves.  It supports the immune system, and is strongly antibacterial and antiseptic.  You can use it to help guard against illness, or to get better faster.

It constists of:
  • Clove (Syzygium aromaticum) -- One of the most antimicrobial and antifungal of all essential oils.
  • Lemon (Citrus limon) -- Supports immunity, cleans.
  • Cinnamon bark (Cinnamomum verum) -- Strongly antiseptic, antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal.
  • Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus radiata) -- Anti-infectious, antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory.
  • Rosmary (Rosmarinus officinalis) -- Antiseptic and antimicrobial
It is included in many of Young Living's cleaning products, such as toothpaste, soap, and all-purpose cleaner.
