In my research especially on Pinterest I keep coming across DoTerra, at first I was happily pinning the recipes I found, a lot of which actually took me to dodgy sites or no such page, when I tried to click through later. It wasn't long before I became very suspicious of them and also Young Living EO's.
From what I can make out they are more interested in signing up members to sell on their oils almost like a pyramid scheme, the members then need to sell their oils on to you so I suspect all sorts of false claims are made from people with very little experience. Also and much more worryingly they openly advocate taking their essential oils internally which is against all the advice of UK EO sellers. EO's by their very nature are extremely concentrated so taking even a drop internally is in my opinion ,unless you have the advice of a qualifed aromatherapist, very irresponsible and potentially dangerous. I have had this opinion reinforced by comments on blogs and posts by experienced EO users.
Apart from these concerns their oils are ridiculously expensive! There are much cheaper better quality oils out there from smaller passionate companies who really care about this stuff. So now when I'm researching blends and recipes if it mentions DoTerra or Youngs I go to the next link.
If you want my advice I would give DoTerra and Young Living Oils a very wide berth!
