How to use it:

  • Use as a body oil by mixing 12 drops of the Immune Booster Essential Oil Blend per 1 ounce of a fixed oil such as jojoba, almond, or grapeseed oil.

  • Add 12 drops, mixed in a tablespoon of bath salts, milk, or yogurt, to a soothing bath for a cold or flu.

  • Inhale directly through a tissue or used in an aromatherapy diffuser to “clean the air” if you are exposed to someone coughing or sneezing.

  • You can do an intensive treatment once a week in the shower. Simply get wet and then turn the shower off. Rub a small amount of the oil blend all over your body and wait for 20 seconds before showering off. This blend is for external use only.
