[Everything doTERRA] Re: ALLERGIC to Slim and Sassy

Agree, that's great advice and feedback.  I  had a woman at a trade event who said she loved S&S but it gave her horrible stomach aches.  I didn't think about a cleanse but did advise her to lower the dose and rub on her feet to see is she could tolerate it that way. Good idea or not?  She was happy that she'd still be able to use the bottle she'd purchased earlier.

This is great feedback.  I have never experienced ANY adverse
responses with the oils, so it is good for me to get feedback from
others.  I was thinking the same thing about candida and I was
suspecting it could be a side effect of being very toxic.  But, I hate
to tell her to continue trying, if she ACTUALLY is allergic,
somehow.

Thanks for your insight.
