A little more about Oregano and Cancer.....

According to the American Cancer Society, prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death for men in the United States, with more than 240,000 new cases expected to be diagnosed in 2012.

doTERRA's Oregano Essential Oil has so many beneficial effects such as antibacterial properties and anti-inflammatory properties. There is also some literature that shows this compound has some effects against breast cancer and other cancer cells.

They are still running tests on carvacrol, one of the main components of oregano - but preliminary reports have revealed that the compound is an extremely potent anti-cancer agent – eliminating nearly all the prostate cancer cells it was tested against.

A new study published in the Federation of American Societies for Experimental
Biology highlights the cancer fighting effects of one of the main components of
oregano called carvacrol. While some research has been done previously on the herb's
medicinal properties, this is the first study of its kind to study the effects of
carvacrol on prostate cancer.

According to the article, the really challenging part [for scientists] is to find out how this is working, They know that the oregano causes these cells to commit suicide [apoptosis], but they want to learn "how" the oregano does what it does so that they can try to DUPLICATE it in a drug that they can patent and sell to us!!

HELLO!!!??? They need to manufacture a drug because they cannot patent the essential oils since they are a natural product that comes directly from plants. My opinion is that everyone needs to be taking oregano essential oil in their daily regiment in order to keep from getting cancer in the first place!

The article goes on to say that figuring out why carvacrol is so effective against prostate cancer could have a significant impact on the future of cancer drugs and research. “We have to remember that this is from oregano which is considered to be a safe food component,” Bavadekar says in the article. “So we’re hoping this translates into a drug with lesser adverse effects in patients.

Come on people!! This amounts to such big business and enormous profits for the drug companies, that [and this is just my opinion] they will NEVER 'find' a cure for any cancer...... they will just keep producing these cancer fighting drugs for giant profits instead.

Update about using the Oregano essential oil for my cysts.....



Back in July, 2012 I wrote a blog entry about using doTERRA’s Oregano essential oil for the cysts that I get under my arms. (click here to read previous blog). All of my life (since my teenage years) I have gotten these cysts in various places on my body and when I began to use the oregano on them (topically) as well as internally (taking 3 drops in a capsule once each day), I literally began to get them every single day!!

This went on for about 2 weeks, and then all of a sudden I realized that I haven’t had a single cyst anywhere since!! Looking back, I believe that the oregano essential oil was making whatever it is (perhaps candida) that gives me cysts to come out of my body, and that’s why I went through a brief period where I literally was getting them every single day.

Oregano essential oil is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-parasitic, antiseptic to the respiratory system, anti-viral AND an immune stimulant!! Now that my cysts are gone, I take 2 drops of oregano along with 2 drops of on guard in a capsule once each day at least 5 days per week.

If you would like to try some doTERRA Oregano essential oil, please be sure to let me know!

Free Radicals!! Taking Action TODAY so that you don’t develop CANCER tomorrow!

One of the reasons I encourage people to use oils daily in their lives is to keep the possible cancer creating debris at very low levels. Clove Bud Oil has a very high rating on the ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity) Scale. The Higher the ORAC score, the more capable that particular food or oil is in destroying free radicals, thus retarding the aging process and preventing cancers and other diseases.

Antioxidant (ORAC) Scores For Selected Essential Oils.......
Sandalwood 1,655;
Rosemary 3,309;
Cinnamon Bark 103,448;
Clove Oil 10,786,875


Using essential oils can be effective at keeping the internal environment of the body healthy without side effects of leaving debris behind or hurting healthy cells in killing off pathogens, cancer producing elements and free radicals.


Clove Oil has the Phenylpropanoids (like in Cassia, Cinnamon, Oregano, etc.) that can create conditions where unfriendly viruses and bacteria cannot live, the most important function they perform is that they clean the receptor sites on our cells. Without clean receptor sites, cells cannot communicate, and the body malfunctions, resulting in sickness.


Lime interferes with the cell to cell communication for the genetic expression of pathogenic (disease causing) bacteria…this means that disease cannot take control of your cell reproduction due to the combined compounds of dōTERRA’s Lime.

dōTERRA’s Lime inhibits (Stops) enzymes which can activate compounds to form cancer in the body.



Massage Blends: Remember to drink lots of water to cleanse toxins released during
Massage out of the body…...

For each massage blend please use 4 tablespoons of Fractionated Coconut Oil.

Lymphatic Detox Blend: Lime 5 drops, Rosemary 5 drops, and Geranium 5 drops
Stimulating Detox Blend: Lime 4 drops, Grapefruit 5 drops, and Helichrysum 2 drops



At Convention earlier this month, Dr. Hill pointed out that preschoolers are one of the fastest growing markets for prescription anti-depressant drugs. Seriously?? Pre-schoolers?? I was shocked. One suggestion Dr. Hill has is to diffuse Melissa and Frankincense together for depression. Blend Melissa and Patchouli in a capsule to be taken internally for cognitive diseases.


Check back often to see what other essential oils I will be talking about!!

Until next time - God Bless YOU!!

My Friend, Debbie Downer....

People are so selfish!! Have people always been so self-centered and selfish and I just have never noticed it before? Or are people really getting more and more self absorbed as the years go by?


Last week I had a conversation with a friend of mine about her holding on to anger and frustration with members of her family and a close friend who she felt were ignoring her for no good reason. She was beside herself with bitterness and anger toward this family member and friend. When I tried to tell her how her bitterness and anger and frustration was not only not getting her anywhere, but it was also not hurting anyone but herself, and that she should try to learn how to "let it go", that she would eventually be a much happier person for it, she adamantly disagreed with me. In fact, she was very upset with me for even suggesting it, and abruptly ended the conversation.


Several days later - an entirely different story -another friend of mine received bad news about her car that was in the shop for repairs. This friend is also going through a divorce, and now to find out that her car repairs would be around the $2000 mark - was almost more than she could handle on this particular day. So I left work early to take this friend to her job and when I came back to work I put a note on facebook asking people to pray for her situation. I said "please pray for my friend - she is going through a divorce and has just found out that it will cost over $1700 to repair her car. Please pray against fear and frustration and pray that God will give her a sense of peace as He works all things out for her good."


Well, my first friend - the bitter one - read that post on facebook and got so bent out of shape that she posted this remark on her own facebook wall. "Why is it that when I am going through a rough time, people tell me how I should feel and what I should do, and that I should "let it go", but when someone else is going through a rough time, they get a prayer request?"


Wow. Seriously? I must admit, I was so pissed about that remark that I had to wait 2 days before I could respond to it. There were so many things that I wanted to say to this selfish person who clearly WANTS to hang on to her bitterness and anger -but when I finally calmed down enough to say something resembling "civil". I wrote this on her facebook post in response.


"I'm sorry that my prayer request offended you. The difference between you and LA [the other girl] is that you clearly WANTED to hang onto your bitterness and anger and frustration, and LA did not. "


Well of course that started it. She said that she didn't realize that people had to meet a certain criteria before they could receive prayer. I told her she was being silly, and that I never said anything like that. Then she proceeded to tell me that since she is this angry, bitter person, she can see why I don't want to be around her. Again - I have no idea where that came from - I never said that. I told her that I thought she was being silly and that it seems like she is not happy unless she is stirring up drama and that I just don't get that. I also don't want to be part of it. She simply replied back "Yep! That's me -drama queen!"


She then proceeded to unfriend me on facebook. Honestly - I'm glad. It was such a draining experience and an emotional day - with friends like that, tell me, who needs enemies, right? I just said Thank You, Lord!


Friendships are too hard when one person is always down, or negative, and the other person is always trying to help them to see the positive side of life - the glass half full if you will. That gets old after awhile. Friendships are supposed to be between two people who both bring something to the friendship. Not one person always "giving" and one person always "taking". Now don't get me wrong, we all go through down times and bouts of frustration, anger, depression, hurt - all of it! But there is a serious problem when one person is ALWAYS Debbie Downer and doesn't hesitate to make it known that they don't even want to TRY to make their life better. It's like the saying about bitterness being like someone hating someone so much that they take poison expecting the other person to die. Yep - that's it exactly!


Yesterday, in the midst of all of the "drama", someone posted a cute little saying on facebook: Sometimes God simply removes people from your life. Don't run after them. Wow. Enough said.

America - We NEED to PRAY!!

2 Chronicles 7:14
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Oh Father - how we need for You to HEAL our land!!

I think that one of the enemy's BEST tricks is to keep Christians so "busy" that we don't have time to pray.  

In the upcoming election, it really doesn't matter who you are gonna vote for, or what 'side' you are on..... I think that we can all agree that this country is truly going to hell in a hand basket and that we need to begin to intercede for America! 

In 1 Timothy 2, the Bible tells us we are to pray for our leaders - for those in authority over us.  It doesn't matter how we personally 'feel' about President Obama - we should be praying for him and for the decisions he has to make for this country!

We need to HUMBLE ourselves and pray.... we need to make more effort to MAKE THE TIME to spend quality quiet time with the God of the universe and humble ourselves before Him.  We need to get down on our knees and our faces before Him and cry out to Him to forgive us for our sins -- for our pettiness, our jealousy, our pride, bitterness, complacency, anger, disobedience, and the list goes on and on. 

We need to SEEK His face...... we need to spend some real time "seeking" God, not just a couple of moments muttering a prayer at the end of the day when we get into the bed and are so mentally and physically exhausted from the days many activities.  How long has it been since you really "sought" God about something in your life?

We need to TURN FROM our wicked ways........ wow, now this is a big one.  Don't keep doing the things you've always done and then asking God to forgive you after.  May God convict each one of our hearts on this one.  From 'road rage' to anger and bitterness and unforgiveness with a spouse or children or parents. Too many Christians are out "partying" through the week and going to church on Sunday morning! 

Too many people want God to come into their hearts, but they don't really want Him to sit on the throne of their life - they don't want to give Him ALL of themselves.  For example, I know many Christians who have given the Lord many areas of their life - they've been great Christians for years, but they just won't give God their finances.  They just can't, or won't for a variety of reasons.  Do you tithe?   Do you give over and above your tithe to support a mission or a ministry that touches your heart or that you are passionate about?  Too many Christians are 'stuck' in the same rut (financially) year after year, decade after decade - and wonder why God doesn't answer their prayers about their finances!! 

I have known many good christian singles who have asked the Lord Jesus into their heart to be their Saviour, many of them have been Christians for years and they too have given Him most of the areas of their lives - except their sex life.  Yep!  They just won't give up sex.  Sex outside of marriage is sin.  Period.  Stop reading the trashy books, listening to the sexually charged music, dressing provocatively and spending the night or living with your boyfriend!!  Keep yourself busy doing things with your friends, or doing things with the church - or join some clubs - hiking, biking, traveling - there are all kinds.  Get active in something that really touches or saddens your heart like visiting people in prison, helping to rescue girls from the sex trafficking industry, or helping serve food at a homeless shelter or food pantry.  I think that one of the greatest things about being single is that I don't have anyone to answer to except God!!  I want to encourage you - don't sit at home and be bored, or "lonely".  Make plans to get out and do things with other people - there are many things that are very inexpensive too!  Email me if you are interested in finding things to do like I have mentioned above.  The list really is endless! Or feel free to email me if you simply want prayer.  Ladies, there is an excellent DVD that you can check out from the library called "No More Sheets" by Juanita Bynum.  You can even check out excerpts from it on YouTube.  

God is the same in this 21st century as He has always been - He doesn't change.  Sin is still sin.  We must stop trying to sugar coat it.  The enemy doesn't have any "new" tricks - they are the same tricks he has been using on God's people since the beginning of time. 

God is calling us to be HONEST with ourselves as well as with Him.  In order to be free, you have to be honest! 

At the end of that verse in 2 Chronicles God says " then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."

Praise God, that gives me hope.  That tells me that there IS hope for America.  But we need to pray!!
