ABOUT YOUNG LIVING ESSENTIAL OILS
Young Living started small in 1993, when Gary Young developed his first organic herb farming and distillation operation. At the time, Gary had already discovered the incredible power of essential oils, but because the quality of available oils varied so greatly, he’d been unable to fully harness their potential. While he knew that pure essential oils had the ability to produce spectacular results, he found that the chemically altered or adulterated oils on the market were often ineffective and even harmful.Young Living changed all that. As Gary developed more farmland in Utah and Idaho, he began cultivating lavender, peppermint, melissa, clary sage, and many other herbs. Fueled by a growing demand for pure essential oils, Young Living designed and built the largest, most technologically advanced distillery for the production of essential oils in North America. Today, Young Living has grown to become the world leader in essential oils and wellness solutions. Headquartered in Lehi, Utah, with offices in Australia, Europe, Canada, Japan and Singapore, as well as farms around the world, Young Living stays true to Gary Young’s original vision. And with a steadfast commitment to essential oil purity, millions of people everywhere have been inspired to experience nature's gifts of wellness and harmony, to create abundance as Young Living distributors, and to discover new opportunities for lifelong transformation.

Young Living Essential Oils are of the highest quality. Every essential oil contains vital plant compounds, many of which have been studied for their positive effects. These compounds offer the greatest potential benefit in their natural, unadultered state. oils that are cut, diluted, blended synthetically, or otherwise altered lack a beneficial constituents that give pure essential oils their health-supporting capabilities.
For more than 20 Years, Young Living has set the standarrd for determining essential oil purity and potency. At the heart of the quality promise is Seed To Seal, a proprietary process that focuses on five requirements for producing therapeutic essential oils:
SEED: Experts select plants that will yield teh highest therapeutic value based on scientific research, field studies, university partnerships, and on-site planting certification.
CULTIVATE: Hands-on experience at each of the six global farms ensures strict quality standards are met wherever our plants are grown, including responsible weed and pest control, proper soil preperation and irrigation.
DISTILL: The proprietary low-tempeture, low pressure steam distillation process allows the natural, bioactive plant compounds in every batch of essential oil to remain uncompromised, ensuring optimal oil quality every time.
TEST: Every essential oil is thoroughly tested, noth in internal and third-party labs, to make sure purity, potency and overall quality is worthy of the Young Living Label.
SEAL: The Seed To Seal process is complete when we carefully inspect and seal each bottle of essential oil and encode every label with information that allows us to trace it back to its source.
