Great answer Thea. My husband and I attended Dr. Pappas' class at convention. (Each of us to a different time) I remember him saying exactly what you have explained.
However if the person asking is wondering about getting oxygen into the body's system the answer is yes they do that very well.

Yes, oxidation will occur in the oils, primarily the citrus oils. This is why the Citrus oils have a shorter shelf life (it is still several years!!). However, if stored properly (e.g. away from light, excessive heat, and oxygen) they should last a very long time. Dr. Pappas reminded us at convention, that if you are really concerned, when your bottle is half empty, it is best to transfer the oil to a smaller bottle so that you don't have as much air in the bottle.

quality "essential oils" could contain some kind of perservative to
prevent oxidation but they would definitely not be pure, therapeutic
quality.
