Powerful. Proven. Essential.

Many people are unaware that essential oils have been around for thousands of years. In fact, they are known to be some of the oldest and most powerful substances on earth!

Each unique oil contains its own distinctive mix of active ingredients that help to communicate with the body and brain to create beneficial effects.

Ancient civilizations from Rome to China used them in perfumes and ancient medicines. They were even commonly used for spiritual and ritualistic purposes. Hieroglyphics containing oil blend recipes have been found on the walls of Egyptian temples and some well-preserved oils were even found in alabaster jars in King Tut’s tomb.

Over time, most of the ancient traditional uses of essential oils were forgotten. It was not until the early 20th century that people began to rediscover them. Today, modern scientists are only beginning to uncover the countless benefits that essential oils have to offer.

Essential oils are concentrated, aromatic liquids extracted through distillation from the flowers, leaves, and roots of herbs, shrubs and trees. Every unique oil contains its own mix of active ingredients and constituents. Each different type of essential oil mix has its own therapeutic property.

Modern research is now beginning to understand how essential oils actually work. Several studies have reviewed how our sense of smell may play a role. The “smell” receptors located in the back of the nasal cavity (known as the olfactory system), are linked directly to the limbic system in the brain. The receptors signal the brain to control levels of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine. By communicating directly with these parts of the brain, the essential oils may influence physical, emotional and mental health. For example, scientists believe that lavender stimulates activity in brain cells to promote relaxation.

The active components are critical aspects of the oil, and can be affected by a vast number of variables. Some factors include: the part(s) of the plant from which the oil was produced, soil condition, geographical region, climate, altitude, harvest season, fertilizer and distillation process.

Forever Living Products has worked with a team of leading scientists, farmers, aromatherapists and botanists, and has traveled around the world to find and source nature’s purest botanical essences.

Forever™ Essential Oils are selected, harvested and produced with the highest quality in mind. Mineral content, climate and sustainability are all considered when choosing a location to source the plants that become Forever™ Essential Oils. After harvesting, essential oils are extracted from carefully chosen crops, primarily using steam distillation and cold pressing. The selected portion of the plant, and extraction techniques used are unique to each type of essential oil.

To ensure the quality of each product, every batch of essential oil undergoes a thorough evaluation. Teams with years of experience growing, cultivating and producing essential oils examine each plant at the time of harvest and throughout the distillation process, using organoleptic verification and other physical characteristic tests to confirm the quality of the oils. In addition, a lab analysis, using gas chromatography coupled with a mass spectrometer, is performed to evaluate and confirm that the active components of the oil are present. Our defined processes help ensure that every batch of essential oils meets the quality and potency required by Forever.

THE POWER OF SMELL

From Incentive the time you smell something until your body naturally reacts is almost instantaneous, showing you just how powerful the sense of smell is. Let’s take a look at the science behind this amazing reaction in your body.

TAKE A DEEP BREATH

When we inhale, olfactory receptor cells in the nasal cavity send electrical impulses to the olfactory bulb, which then passes information on to the limbic system in the brain.

LIMBIC SYSTEM

Often referred to emotional part of brain. Made up of several parts, including hippocampus and amgydala. Controls memory and mood. Can evoke emotion and physical response almost instantly.

OUR BODY’S REACTION

Smells cause a physiological response in the body. Thanks to the link between smell and memory, a scent could evoke feelings of comfort; other scents could make you feel more alert.

This triggers the brain to release natural chemicals into the body that can make us feel calm, relaxed, invigorated, energized or refreshed. The smell and your brain’s association with it will determine how your body responds.

Anytime you encounter a new scent, you associate it with your surroundings: people, places or events. Then when you smell that again, it automatically evokes that first event, triggering a memory, mood or feeling.
