I stand with my statement that we do not get caught up with legal actions that have not even been brought before a judge.

Rebecca, this is part of the confusion I have found. It's my understanding that doTERRA has not gotten FDA approval for ANYTHING--at least that's what Dr. Hill told me when he called me to answer my questions about government certifications. Yet I have seen the note you mentioned in the Modern Essentials book. We need to get some definitive answers on this so that we cannot be accused of making false claims.

In your Modern Essential book look at Myrrh for exmple, it states: "Approved by the FDA (21CFR172.510) for use as a Food Additive(FA). Or Orange, states "enerally recogjozed as safe (GRAS) for human consumption by the FDA (21CFR182.0). That's our role... educate those that don't know and only opinionate.Rebecca

I'm concerned that this could have a negative impact on the essential oil industry in general. There are many certified aromatherapists, doctors and scientists out there who think we are endangering others by using the oils neat and internally (I've seen a great deal of hostility on the EO University blog about this). If YL calls someone in as an expert witness to testify that we are doing dangerous things (although they are certainly using questionable practices themselves), it could get into the press and we could draw the attention of the FDA and other government agencies. This lawsuit could certainly backfire on YL, but could also end up restricting our freedom to use the oils as we choose.

One of the things we have learned over the years is not to become
distracted. It can take years for these things to come to resolution,
so stay focused on doing what you are called to do!
