It has been over a year since COVID-19 has spread across the world. We have all seen firsthand the power of a virus. That’s why we love Defense: an expertly blended oil that will wake up your body’s defense system. 

 

Our proprietary blend of Nutmeg, Thyme, Ravensara, Rosemary, Cajeput, Eucalyptus, Clove Budy, Pine, and Peppermint essential oils provides a powerful array of benefits. 

Here are 5 ways Defense can help:

  • Wounds
  • Bacterial Infections
  • Cleaning
  • Disinfectant
  • Dandruff

 

For wounds and bacterial infections:

Apply directly to the location. Check for sensitivity behind or inside the skin of the elbow before using. If sensitivity arises dilute with grapeseed oil. 

 

Disinfectant: Add 10-15 drops to a spray bottle and shake well. Apply on the desired area.

 

Dandruff: Add 10-15 drops of shampoo. Lather for 30-60 seconds, let sit for 5 minutes and rinse. 

 

There are other ways to naturally boost your immune system. Here are 3 of our favorites:

 

Get enough sleep

Studies show that inadequate sleep lowers your body’s ability to fight off illnesses. Adults should aim to get 7 or more hours of sleep each night, while teens need 8–10 hours and younger children and infants up to 14 hours

 

Stay hydrated

Preventing dehydration is important to your overall health. Dehydration can cause a series of pesky problems like irritability, headaches, and hinder digestion. Drink when you’re thirsty and add more if you’re engaging in exercise or if you’re spending time outdoors. 

 

Exercise regularly

Exercise does more than keep those pesky extra pounds away. It boosts your immune system. Exercise promotes good blood circulation which in turn gives your cells the ability to move throughout your body freely and efficiently. 

 

While it’s impossible to completely avoid getting sick, your daily habits can ensure you feel great and are strong enough to battle those bugs when they do come.
