Why dōTERRA?

Where We Get Our Essential Oils Matters.

What happens when something gets popular??

When a product gets popular, you will notice knock off versions start popping up all over the place.

The same thing has been happening with Essential Oils over the past 5-10 years. Now we find Essential oils and essential oil products in grocery stores, department stores, discount stores, online, & more.

In fact, we often hear people ask: "Can't we just get these at the grocery store??"

The quick answer to that is "Nope!"

The Huge Majority of Essential Oil Products on the Market are Fragrance Products.

Companies who are just trying to take advantage of the popularity of essential oils are not focused on their health benefits.

And because of that they do not monitor for quality.

Trying to use these types of products for health would be like trying to apply a fragranced perfume on your body hoping it would make you feel better.

It doesn't work like that!

Quality Matters When We Want to Use Essential Oils for our HEALTH.

If you want to use essential oils to feel better at home...

To take care of your health, and your children's health...

To know that what you are using will be safe & effective,

Then dōTERRA is for you.

What To Look For When Buying Essential Oils

When you use a bottle of doTERRA essential oil, you’re using an oil that is pure. There are no contaminants, fillers, or adulterations. The essential oil industry did not have standards to ensure purity, so doTERRA created one.


Every batch of doTERRA essential oils goes through a rigorous testing process—well beyond what would be considered “good enough.” After that, each oil is sent to an independent third party for further testing and validation.

  • Sustainable and responsible sourcing (Where do their oils come from?)


  • Extensive and thorough testing (Do they test their oils for adulteration and contamination?)


  • Clear and accessible safety and usage information (Do they show customers how to use the oils safely?)


  • Transparency (Do they use third-party testing? Do they make test results public?)

Pure Essential Oils Pass Tests

The purity of an essential oil is its most important characteristic. When an essential oil is adulterated or contaminated, it becomes less effective and can even be dangerous. Above all else, purity is doTERRA’s first priority when producing essential oils.


Responsible Sourcing of Essential Oils

Every oil sold by doTERRA is responsibly and sustainably sourced. doTERRA focuses on sourcing practices that will produce only the highest quality essential oils—no matter the cost. We make it a top priority to protect the environment during the production process and provide fair treatment of all harvesters and growers.

Humanitarian Impact

From the beginning, doTERRA wanted to be more than a business. “There are givers and there are takers,” said David Stirling, doTERRA Founding Executive, CEO. “We wanted doTERRA to be a giver.”


Cutting-Edge Research
