Why Doterra?

Testing—Purity

The more pure the essential oil, the more powerful the results. Many essential oils available to purchase are not pure. Often, they contain fillers or other elements that dilute and alter the purity, thus diminishing the healthful qualities of the oil. In order to guarantee that the oils you use are pure, doTERRA and a team of highly skilled professionals formulated a successful testing procedure that qualifies doTERRA oils as uniquely pure and free of contaminants. This quality protocol is called CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade.

During the CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade process, each batch of oils is subjected to extensive and rigorous 3rd party testing that ensures the purity, potency, and consistency of the essential oils. Because quality oils can empower individuals and families, doTERRA makes it their priority to provide you with the purest and most effective oils possible. With each doTERRA product, you can be confident that you are receiving the highest quality essential oils. On the bottom of every bottle is a number, you can enter that into an independent website Source to you and it will tell you everything about it and show you the purity levels. 

Farming—Potency

Another crucial element in providing a quality essential oil is guaranteeing that there is maximum potency.  For an essential oil to obtain a strong potency, the plant it originates from must be grown in the right environment. When plants are grown in optimal soil, temperature, and climate, they produce a higher quality of potency in the essential oil. 

To maintain this level of potency, doTERRA networks with experienced farmers around the world that intimately know how to grow plants in their native environment. This process is called sourcing. The sourcing process ensures that plants are taken care of properly and harvested at the proper stage by growers who have generations of harvesting knowledge. Once the plants reach their prime, they are then gathered and carefully distilled by artisans, making oils that are potent, consistent, and pure. 

Doterra supports local farmers to grow and sustain the plants that make the oils, but also empower the community, particularly the women, providing necessary basic amenities and education opportunities.
