Essential Oils and the Economy

In troubled times comes troubling actions. In order to stretch dollars further in this economy companies are turning to short cuts in order to save money and sustain their revenues. These kinds of actions take place in every industry and practice.
Right now we are seeing many essential oil companies and suppliers taking actions that leave us stunned. Adulteration of essential oils is on the rise and so is the increase of synthetic fragrances claiming to be pure essential oils. The public is purchasing these essential oils thinking they are getting true therapeutic products when they are not. This is not just effecting peoples pockets but in some cases are truly effecting peoples health.
Adulteration effects the healing actions found in pure therapeutic grade essential oils so much so that many consumers using them never see any kind of benefits from their use. Synthetics oils are worse than adulterated oils in the sense that they are being linked to people getting allergic reactions and in some cases even cancer.
We at Elizabeth Van Buren understand these issues and will not compromise our position on therapeutic grade oils. That is why we test each and every batch by Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometer to insure our oils do not contain these materials. We also stand by our customers and vendors and will not accept or sell these poor oils even if it causes us delays or effects our revenue. Our company has always believed what benefits you, will in the long term, also benefit us.
Most of all whether you purchase with Elizabeth Van Buren or some other company be sure to investigate your oils before purchasing. Make sure they are GC/MS tested on every batch, that there are traceable lot numbers on the bottle and that your pure single note oils are not cut with carriers oils (unless they are clearly labeled as blends).
