Healthy Sunscreen & Healthy Sunblock

Here are two awesome testimonies about Lavender working as a sunblock and bruising.� I am going to resend the info on the sunblock incase some of you didn't get it and for the new people who have come aboard.� Thanks for sharing Ethel.�

�

Here is another testimony I want to share about my little granddaughter about her sore red gum from after coming back from the dentist and she asked, "Grandma what can I do for this it really hurts!" �I suggested applying lavender on them, telling her it doesn't taste all the great.� Bless her heart, she said, �"that's okay Grandma it hurts."� We applied�the lavender and her pain went away and in an hour the redness all gone.

�

Then I want to share info about the Lavender Foaming Hand Soap.� Mechanic that have greasy hands here is a blessing in disguise.� Just apply the lavender foaming hand soap and the grease is history.� It come off in a blink of an eye.� What a better way to get the grease off instead of using harsh chemicals to�remove the grim.� God Bless, Nancy

I have 2 amazing stories about Young Living Lavender.

�

Recently, Nancy Sanderson sent a message about using Lavender in avocado oil as a sunscreen.� After receiving the message as well as hyperlinks for Creer Labs, I purchased some avocado oil.� I mixed 4 oz of avocado oil with 30 drops of lavender and applied it liberally to my arms before going out to work in the garden�for 3 hours in the midday sun today.� Not only did I not get sunburned, there isn't a hint of additional color on my hands,�arms or face.� To be honest, I questioned whether it would truly block the sun�but I can now�testify that it works for me.

�

Our downline, Ann had an unfortunate�incident over the weekend.� With the recent rainy weather, the window frames in her home�were expanding and sticking when they tried to close them.� She had her fingers on the sill when her adult�son pushed with a mighty shove to close the window.� It bounced off her fingers and she told me "I poured almost the whole bottle of lavender on my fingers".� Her son said he thought�the window hadn't really hurt her fingers when he saw there were no marks on her hand and fingers at all.� She told me the immediate pain was exquisite, but completely vanished after applying the oils.� I saw her hand today and there isn't a mark or bruise on her fingers.� There is still a bit of tenderness on the 3rd finger when she flexes it, but otherwise no consequences from the injury and treatment with lavender.

PS: in the same message, Nancy told us to add Citronella (available from Creer Labs) to a carrier oil and use it as a very effective insect repellent.� We also heard about adding Eucalyptus Blue.� I've got some more avocado oil in that same bottle, so that's next!

So what can we do to protect ourself and our children?� Dr. Sabina DeVita has written a book and she

tells us what to do.

� The book "Saving Face" by Dr. Sabina DeVita �(available from essentialscience.net) has a suncreen and sunblock�recipe:

"Certain natural vegetable oils and essential oils have been found to provide some protection against the sun. Sesame oil can block or reduce about 30% of the burning rays; coconut and olive oils about 20%, and aloe vera inhibits about 20%. Helichrysum oil has been researched for its ability to effectively screen out some of the sun's rays."

�� Sunblock: Mix 3-6 drops Helichrysum with 100 drops of sesame oil or
� olive oil. �Apply on skin every few hours.
�
� Sunscreen: �1 oz. sesame oil, 1/2 oz. coconut oil, 1/2 oz. olive oil,
� 10 drops Helichrysum, 5 drops Lavender, 3 drops Chamomile. �Mix and
� apply.

What is effective against the harassment of biting insects!

We have essential oils that insect do not like.� Citronella, Peppermint, Idaho Tansy.� I have taken the peppermint floral water and added 30 drops of peppermint oil to it and mixed and spray that all over

my arms clothes and head.� That really works great for me.�� Now here is what you can do also.� Take

10 drops Citronella

10 drops Peppermint

10 drops Idaho Tansy

Mix thoroughly in that order and then add to Idaho Tansy Floral water, or water and spritz the body.

Also Austrailian Blue and Palo Santo make the�Mosquitos run.

Read on about the dangers that are in the bugs sprays .

God Bless and have a great day, Nancy Sanderson

DEET -- More Dangerous Than You Think!

DEET (N,N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide) is a chemical that was patented by the US Army in 1946 and is still widely recognized as an effective mosquito repellent. In fact, most commercial insect repellents are made of varying concentrations of DEET.

Every year approximately one-third of the American population uses insect repellents to deter mosquitoes and other pests. Currently, DEET is used in up to 230 different products in concentrations of up to an astounding 100%.

However, all is not well with DEET...

DEET is a pesticide intended to�kill�insects! In case that idea by itself doesn't scare you,� read on to discover the health issues it is known to cause.

If It Melts Plastics...

DEET sprays can melt plastic bags and fishing lines. Does that make you wonder what it can do to you?

You use Young Livings pure Therapeutic grade essential oils. Read on about the dangers of Deet.

Duke University Medical Center pharmacologist Mohamed Abou-Donia spent 30 years researching the effects of pesticides.

He discovered that prolonged exposure to DEET can impair cell function in parts of your brain -- demonstrated in the lab by death and behavioral changes in rats with frequent or prolonged use.i

When these rats had their skin treated with the average human dosage equivalent (40 mg/kg body weight) of DEET, they performed far worse than control rats on physical tests requiring muscle control, strength, and coordination.ii

This is consistent with reports of symptoms after military use of DEET in the Persian Gulf War.

Exposure causes neurons to die in several parts of your brainiii --�including areas that control muscle movement, memory, concentration and learning. Abou-Donia says rats given small doses of DEET for 60 days had a harder time accomplishing even the easiest tasks, things as simple as walking.

Heavy exposure to DEET and other insecticides can cause eye and skin irritation, memory loss, headaches, weakness, fatigue, muscle/joint pain, nausea, tremors and shortness of breath. Symptoms can appear months or even years after use.

Abou-Donia believes that although short-term exposure to DEET�might�not be harmful, he warns against�ever�using any product with more than a 30 percent concentration. To me, even that seems a dangerous and risky amount to use.

But wait! It gets worse...

Worse Than DEET

"We found that the combined exposure to DEET and other chemicals is more dangerous than just DEET alone," says Abou-Donia.

Exposure causes neurons to die in several parts of your brainiv�-- including areas that control muscle movement, memory, concentration and learning. Abou-Donia says rats given small doses of DEET for 60 days had a harder time accomplishing even the easiest tasks, things as simple as walking.

Insecticides aren't the only problem though.�Skin care products�containing various chemicals can put you at increased risk of chemical contamination with DEET. Products you use on a daily basis, like deodorants, soaps, make-up andsunscreens�(except�Natural Sunscreen),�when combined with DEET, create greater exposure than DEET alone.

Medications,�both prescription and over the counter, can also react with DEET and increase your risk of problems.

Long-term and regular use of DEET -- especially combined with these other chemicals or medications -- can cause brain deficiencies in vulnerable groups, particularly children.v

Children are more susceptible than adults to subtle brain changes caused by chemicals in their environment, because their skin more readily absorbs them. Their still-developing nervous systems are potentially more affected.vi��

Never, ever, ever use any DEET-containing product on infants! And be very hesitant to use it on anyone who you care about -- including yourself.

Many Potential Hazards Lurk in Commercial Bug Sprays

Other potential hazards can lurk in commercial bug sprays, such as the chemical permethrin. It's part the synthetic pyrethroid family, all of which are neurotoxins.

 

 

Don't expect the same results unless you are using Young Living

Therapeutic Grade Essential oils and Supplements.� Also each person

is different so they may not work as well for you as it does for others

so try another oil or supplement that would work better for you.

You have a moral obligation
