I love this product! I've had problems with my skin since forever and have had to constantly change my face wash to try and help it. I've been using the Zum Face since Dec. 2012 and have not had to use anything else (typically I have to change every month or two). I use it as a mask sometimes with out any water and love the results! My face feels clean and refreshed. During the summer it my face usually drys out real bad but this has kept the dry skin at bay. The only thing I would suggest is to use this with the Zum Face Facial Cleanser, I've noticed it helps when I'm breaking out.

This is a great facial scrub. True, it is not a large amount of product, but you need so little everytime you use it. Recommendation: once you scoop out a small amount, drizel some water on the scrub before you put it on your face. It softens the sugar and becomes a softer scrub once you rub it on your face. Will order again.

I have natually oily facial skin, so I was concerned that cleaning my face with an oil based product my make the issue worse (this did not happen). The product exfoliates extremely well due to the high amount of sugar granuals in it. The smell is fantastic and if you ever get some in your mouth it actually tastes great too! I didn't have any real issues on my face to "clear up" so I can't report on that. I can just say it scrubs well, and my face feels clean and fresh afterwards. I've since purchased more and will continue to use this on a daily basis. Good stuff!!

The Peru Balsam Essential Oil is working well to help clear up my skin problems. I have been to several physician's and 2 dermatologists with little luck. Then I started praying the Lord show me the way and he brought me to read Queen Esther and her purification process. She first used mrryh oil then balsam oil to help clean and purify her skin of any disease. Although the process is slow and somewhat costly it is working with the 2 oils. I do wish it didn't take so long to receive. The shipping process seems a little slow. And I wish you had a larger size to purchase so I didn't have to pay so much for one bottle to be shipped, but I do love your product. Thank you.

I was impressed with quality, and the expedited delivery of product. I have tried everything under the sun to no avail to alleviate the sore on my nose caused by reading and sun glasses, short of seeing a dermatologist. In my search for a remedy I learned of Xenaderm Ointment, which you can only get in a prescription. The ingredients are Balsam of Peru, Taurine, and Castor oil. I purchased Nature's Kiss Peru Balsam, and within two weeks time healed this sore. Peru Balsam is awesome as a natural antiseptic!

Swansons has another winner in my opinion with this combination of essential healthy oils. I especially like the virgin olive oil in this product and is the primary reason for buying it. Olive Oil is good for one's heart and cardiovascular system and finding inexpensive olive oil is just about impossible. Swansons brand is the least expensive I have found.

This review is for the Algae Omega softgels and not the liquid drops (which sometimes shows up as the main image). Vegetarian Omega 3s are recommended in addition to the fish oil based Omegas in order to balance their absorption in the body. These softgels are especially useful during pregnancy days and my wife loves them. They do not add any issues to the digestive system, no after-burps, and are easy to swallow. Daily dose consists of 2 Soft Gels and provide 570 mgs of Omega-3s in combination of DHA and EPA. In addition, it also provides 800 I.U of vitamin D, which is also a necessary nutrient for body.

Besides Nordic Naturals is one of the best and most reputed brands for Omega-3s and the price on Amazon is always unbeatable.

Overall, we are very pleased with this product and plan to continue it even after childbirth and further.

This product has been recently reformulated and now contains caramel coloring (which is why the soft gels now look dark brown to black). According to the Center for Science in the Public Interest (all information below from their web site), caramel coloring produced using ammonia contains contaminants which are possibly carcinogenic:

"Caramel coloring is made by heating a sugar compound (usually high-dextrose corn syrup), often together with ammonium compounds, acids, or alkalis.

Caramel coloring, when produced with ammonia, contains contaminants, 2-methylimidazole and 4-methylimidazole. In 2007, studies by the U.S. National Toxicology Program found that those two contaminants cause cancer in male and female mice and possibly in female rats. In 2011, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, a division of the World Health Organization, concluded that 2and 4-methylimidazole are "possibly carcinogenic to humans." Then, the State of California's Environmental Protection Agency listed ammonia-caramel coloring as a carcinogen under the state's Proposition 65. The state lists chemicals when they pose a lifetime risk of at least 1 cancer per 100,000 people. California warned that as of January 7, 2012, widely consumed products, such as soft drinks, that contained more than 29 micrograms of 4-methylimidazole per serving would have to bear a warning notice. In March 2012, when CSPI published the results of a study that found levels up to 150 micrograms per can of Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola purchased in Washington, DC, the soft-drink giants announced that they had reduced the contaminant to below California's threshold for action in products distributed in California. They said they would market the less-contaminated products throughout the country, but did not give a timetable for that change.

The FDA has a limit that is 10 times as strict as California's for regulating chemicals that are contaminated with cancer-causing chemicals. CSPI's analysis of a Coca-Cola purchased in 2012 in California found just 4 micrograms of 4-MI per 12 ounces. Even that much lower level might exceed the FDA's threshold for action of 1 cancer per million consumers."

There are several different types of caramel coloring, types III and IV contain the contaminants thought to be carcinogenic:

"Caramel colorings are manufactured in several ways. Caramel Color I (may be used in high-proof alcoholic beverages) and Caramel Color II (may be used in cognac, sherry, and vegetable extract) are produced with alkali or acid caustic chemicals and sometimes sulfites (Caramel II), but not with ammonium compounds. Caramel Color III (synonyms: ammonia caramel, ammonia process caramel, closed-pan ammonia process caramel, open-pan ammonia process caramel, bakers' caramel, confectioners' caramel, and beer caramel) is prepared by the controlled heat treatment of carbohydrates with ammonium compounds. Caramel Color III is often used in baking, beer, soy sauce, gravy, and other products. Caramel Color IV (synonyms: ammonia sulfite process caramel, sulfite ammonia caramel, sulfite ammonia process caramel, acid-proof caramel, beverage caramel, and soft-drink caramel) is prepared by the controlled heat treatment of carbohydrates with ammonium-containing and sulfite-containing compounds. Soft drinks colored with caramel coloring generally are made with Caramel Color IV, which is generally used in colas and certain other soft drinks, and it also may be used in blended whiskey and general food applications."

I have written to Nordic Naturals asking what type of Caramel Color is used in their product, as well as the amount used if Caramel Color III or IV (since the risk is dose related, and the dose may be tiny compared to what one gets in a can of Coca Cola). I will update this review with any information I receive from them. My 3 star rating is solely related to the addition of caramel coloring; I will revise the rating if information from the company warrants it.

May 2013 Update:

I've been taken these soft gels off and on for a couple years now. Every time I get done being sick, I will have a stuffy nose for months. These soft gels somehow magically clears up my nose and I can breathe again! I'm guessing it works like an natural anti inflammatory medicine. I take them more during the winter for the vitamin D. I also take them before final exams to boost my brain or protect my immune system during the flu season. If you check out the Carlson website, they make different bottles with very different vitamin amounts so look at the labels carefully before purchase.

Here's the official site:

Original review:

Here are the supplement Facts per 1 soft gel for Cod Liver Oil "Lightly Lemon" and the Cod Liver Oil with "Low Vitamin A":

Vitamin A: 150 IU (3% Daily Value)

Vitamin D: 80 IU (20% Daily Value)

Vitamin E: 2 IU (7% Daily Value)

Omega-3: 230mg

EPA: 85mg

DHA: 100mg

If you buy the Carlson Cod Liver Oil "Super 1000mg", be aware that it has high contents of Vitamins A, D, and E which can be toxic if you take too much:

Vitamin A: 2000 IU (40% Daily Value)

Vitamin D: 250 IU (63% Daily Value)

Vitamin E: 10 IU (33% Daily Value)

Omega-3: 240mg

EPA: 90mg

DHA: 120mg

"Lightly Lemon" offsets the fishy taste if you don't like regular fish oil. This has low Vitamin A and it gives you about the same amount of Omega-3 compared to Super 1000mg. If you buy the "Super 1000mg" which Carlson recommends to take 5 soft gels per day, that means you will have 200% Vitamin A which can be dangerous for your health.

Also on the bottom of the bottle says best used by 2015, I bought this in 2011, so expiration is about 4 to 5 years.

I got this because of the Carlson name (Carlson Labs has been around for a long time), the price and safety (tested for toxins).

It's often not easy to tell which is cheaper since different brands have different amounts of omega-3's per gel, so what I did was just calculate the cost per mg of omega-3 by dividing the price by the total mgs (number of servings multiplied by the omega-3 per serving). That way, you figure out which has the best value per mg. It didn't really matter to me what the monthly cost or monthly dosage cost was because there really isn't an absolute daily allowance (the recommended one is 1000 mgs per day) and I figure it's more normal/natural to have a varying amount daily anyway, but that's just me.

When shopping only for price, look for something which is on sale, buy enough stuff to get free shipping, and usually the larger bottles are cheaper per unit.

The number of gels in this bottle (300) is somewhat misleading because a serving size is 5 gels (a little over 1100mg for the 5 gels). And by the way, this bottle is a 2 month supply (300/5 = 60 day's dosage). It might be difficult to take 5 gels per day, but this is great for people who don't want to take a full 1100+ mg per day or want to spread out the dosage over breakfast to dinner. I also like this one because it doesn't have a lot of extra vitamins in it. You can get more information from the Carlson Labs website.

Taste: This is the biggie for most people. I happen to like fish oil flavor and have always crushed the capsule in my mouth even as a kid. But some people can't stand it. This one has a "slightly lemon" flavor and I can attest it's true, but people who are really sensitive to taste should try a small bottle first.

To summarize, I got this for the reputation, price and the fact that it's safe/pure. I think all of the above is important, especially safety. Don't get an unknown cheap brand that has mercury and PCB's in it.

2 week update: After a couple of weeks of chewing this I've found that this is the cod liver oil I like best. The fish taste is very mild to me and I like chewing up the gel capsule; with the lemon taste it's almost like a jelly bean I'm chewing.

I have been battling severely dry skin, painful, cracked fingers/hands and eczema (elbows, feets, knees) for almost 2 years. A couple weeks ago, a friend told me about a lady from our community took Cod Liver Oil & it miraculously cleared up her skin problems (very similar to mine & after repeated Rx's from Dr's over several years). I know that Carlson's is a very reputable brand & ordered this CLO that day. I have been taking it for 10 days ago now (3am, 2noon, 3pm) & I am so thankful for this product. My skin is healing from the inside. The redness is almost gone. The sensitive, rough, scaly, dry areas are softening. I'm also putting the CLO on my skin topically & I'm very thankful for the lemon in it, as I don't smell like a fish! If you research CLO, you will find that it good for lots of different things....stomach problems, skin, high blood pressure, diabetes, immune system, inflammation, etc. I HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone with skin problems. You'll be pleasantly surprised at the results. To God be the Glory!!!!

At the end of the day it is great to realize that I haven't once thought about how sore and achy I used to feel.

I first stumbled into the world of essential oils back in 1990 when I needed a part-time job and there was an opening for "Weekends Only" at a tiny Aromatherapy store in Lincoln Park, Chicago. Back in those days, very few people had even heard of the word and thought FRAGRANCE oils to be synonymous with ESSENTIAL OILS. It was an invaluable experience working in that store and it changed my life in regards to taking charge of my PERSONAL wellness through the use of Essential Oils.

NO DRUG IS A PANACEA OR MAGIC BULLET FOR EVERYONE!!!! I state this clearly because of the few negative reviews that all the various company's that sell Tea Tree Oil have received. For instance, I'm allergic to Peroxide. The pills Asprin and Tylenol have zero effect on me. So, if you have NEVER used Tea Tree Oil, BUY THE SMALLEST BOTTLE YOU CAN FIND AND TRY IT OUT ON YOURSELF! If you're as lucky as I am, it will be your Go-To Treatment for 99% of "What Ails You."

I've tried many a company's Tea Tree Oil and have finally settled on THIS brand. Why? The reasons I list work for ME; they may not work for YOU:

1) It's in a CLEAR bottle! I know, I know: having E.O.'s in blue/amber bottles protects them from the light, but so does storing them in a dark place. I like being able to SEE how much is used so I know when to buy more.

2) It does NOT have a calibrated "Rain Drop" apeture in the top, meaning that you can POUR the oil out or use these micro measuring spoons when creating hair or bath products. Norpro 3080 Mini Measuring Spoons, 5 Piece Set

3) PRICE!!!!! Compared to other company's with fancier labels and prettier bottles, this product is several dollars LESS expensive than the other brands, without losing a bit of effectiveness.

4) Availability!!!! Since this product does NOT ship through Amazon Prime, there's no cost savings to me. Both my local Whole Foods and Trader Joe's sell this brand, so I am no more than a 10 minute drive in any direction when I am running low.

Okay, those are the reasons why I buy THIS brand. Now, HOW do I use it and HOW has it helped me?

1) For my body, Tea Tree Oil is Magical!!! Every single thing that you can find online with HOW this oil works, it responds that well in MY body! YOUR results may vary. Since discovering the sheer effectiveness on my system, I keep no less than SIX bottles in our lives: in my purse; in our first aid kits; and in every medicine cabinet. My family has been taught by me that Tea Tree Oil is thee FIRST response to ANYTHING that breaks the skin and it's kept our medical bills down to ZERO. Yes, ZERO!!!, in regards to the common things you go to the doctor for.

2) I have had chronic and debilitating ear infections my entire life. As a child, I've spent weeks in hospital with infections that threatened my life. Countless surgeries on my ears have done NOTHING to stop the infections, which can come on in an hour. Now, as soon as I feel the Tell-Tale tingling in my ear, I grab my bottle of Tea Tree Oil and swipe it down the entire side of my face. I repeat this process every single hour until the tingling stops. Results? NO MORE EAR INFECTIONS AND NO MORE HOSPITALIZATIONS OR DOCTOR VISITS!!!

3) When my family and I have a scratchy throat or have been subjected to anyone with a severe cold or the flu, we place a couple of drops on a cotton pad and then deeply inhale the vapors and hold it in our lungs for the count of five, then exhale and repeat the process. Since doing this, NO ONE in my family has had a cold or the flu in 8 years!!!! NO ONE!

4) We have a Summer Cottage near a lake which means ticks, chiggers and mosquitoe bites. One drop of this oil on ANY of the following solves the itch, the pain and the resulting infections. We've seen ticks actually back out of the skin when a drop of this oil is placed on their backs!

5) Tooth infections! I had four Wisdom Teeth extracted. After it was okay to rinse my mouth, I placed a drop of Tea Tree Oil in warm water and would rinse out my mouth when directed. When I went in for my check up, my dentist was SHOCKED at the healing of my gums and was suspicious as to WHY they had healed so well and so fast! Seriously, Dr.? Shouldn't you have just been HAPPY for me? LOL

6) And for me, directly, the use of Tea Tree Oil in my daily job is a God Send! I'm a Landscape Architect with a staff of 17 men. Every single day, we get injured; it comes with the job. Whether it's a deep penetration of a thorn, a complete scraping of skin from a tree you're climbing, a deep knick when you're sharpening a pruner, or a massive sliver that got jammed into a palm, we have daily injuries. Since we can't stop work when this happens, we normally would just rinse the area off with a hose and continue working. More than half of the time, these injuries would get worse, with either the employee or myself loosing productivity or hours, because we couldn't use that hand or arm.

Now, I've taught every one of my guys to come to me for treatment and they hold out their injury to receive some drops of Tea Tree Oil. At first, they were skeptical; now, some are SO convinced, they've had me buy bottles for their own homes. And for home use, this oil is amazing! I've had deep knife cuts from a knife slipping out of my hands while washing; I've had deep scratches from our dogs and cats when we've tried to corral them for the vet; and 100% of these injuries NEVER get infected nor turn pink or swollen if treated immediately with this oil. Healing time is 3-5 times faster than when left untreated.

We've used this oil for acne, cold sores, tooth aches, ear infections, athlete's foot, insect bites and all manner of skin breaks. For whatever reasons, our DNA works with this oil. That's why I'm giving it such glowing reviews. YOUR results may NOT be the same.

In closing, I'd recommend that you buy the smallest bottle possible, to keep it fresh and pure. In my home and purse, I buy the .05 ounce size and when it's half full, I buy a replacement bottle and store it in the frig. Remember, NOTHING that you put to the opening is sterile (cotton balls, swabs or your fingers!), so with each touch of the oil, you are contaminating it. So, buying a large 2 ounce bottle just allows the oil to become less and less effective. The one exception for me, is that for work I buy the 2 ounce bottle, simply because we go through one of those bottles at least once a month and it's more cost effective.

Also, if you want to learn about more health benefits of essential oils, THIS book is the BEST there is! Aromatherapy: A Complete Guide to the Healing Art I've been using this book since it was first published in 1995 and use it as my "Betty Crocker" default for healing common injuries and problems within my family. It's NEVER failed me in 18 years of use.

For the people who don't think this works I don't think you understand that your skin needs a period of two to four weeks before any treatment will work, you have breakouts that start two weeks before they rise to the surface and you see them, spot treatments also don't work because you are treating the unseen new pimples, if you choose to spot treat then logically just spread what ever treatment you are using to the parts of your face you commonly breakout in. As for the Tea Tree Oil...For my skin and my husbands it has worked better then benzoyl peroxide , and Salicylic acid...For Salicylic acid to be effective it has to have the correct ph balance to exfoliate skin cells and sadly almost all on the market have to high of a ph. I am overly sensitive to benzoyl peroxide so all the irritation that it causes just creates more pimples. Tea Tree oil does work...You must use a concentration of above 5% or you will be aggravating the bacteria, which will only produce more pimples...If you doubt any of the countless hours of research I have done on the topic of acne treatment...do your own research, you have the internet go to some site like cosmetic cop or even read reviews of products on Amazon. Don't give up a treatment until four weeks; you will never see good results until then. Also if you over exfoliate your skin with wash cloths or manual exfoliate like scrubs be warned that can also be causing you more problems. Go to Sephora buy their facial sponges and use those instead of a washcloth, but be sure to boil it or disinfectant regularly or you will once again be creating bacteria instead of killing it.

This is my first time using tea tree oil. I was in desperate need of a product to maintain my acne. I've used countless products and spent loads of money on special gadgets to improve my skin. I began researching after a bad breakout and came across many positive reviews for tea tree oil. Figuring I had nothing to lose I gave it a try and fell in love after first use. It's an incredible toner. Interestingly, it's an oil that strips oil away and leaves pores tight and clean. The smell can be a little strong at first, but I've gotten used to it. It is wise to dilute the oil with a moist cotton pad before applying to the face. Also be careful not to let it seep into your eyes. Frequently I experience some stinging in my eyes for a few minutes after applying. I apply before bed and when I wake up the blemish is well on its way to healing if I have popped it, which I admit to doing. Not good. Not to sound gross, but it also helps blemishes come to a head quickly, bringing that white icky stuff to the surface, but i find it to heal faster that way. Tea tree oil can be drying, so even though I have oily skin, if I apply it in the morning I follow it with jojoba oil mixed with a light oil-free moisturizer. This helps avoid flakiness under makeup. I hope it works for everyone suffering from problem skin!

I'll try to explain this without being to gross :)I've had very bad toenail fungus on my big toe, and not so bad on some other toes. After using this for only 2 days so far (twice a day) I am already seeing great improvement. On my big toe it was so bad, that it was growing in kind of layers. I woke up this morning, and 3/4 of my toenail fell off where the fungus was. Its pretty gross, but I could see a lot of fungus under the part of the toenal that fell off. On my other toes, where its not so bad, its already clearing up. I didn't think the results would be this fast! I'm also surprised I didn't see any reviews for this product regarding toe nail fungus. But it is a gross subject. One thing I do agree with other posts, is the design of the bottle needs to be better for dispensing. Anyway this particular brand of Tea Tree Oil, IS working for my toenail fungus, and working fast!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program These gels come in an easy to swallow size. This jar contains a twenty day supply. I think they're just fine. They leave no peculiar aftertaste, and they smell authentically natural. The dark oils are made from a combination of essential herbs and extractions from 100% Wild Alaskan Salmon!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I already take Glucosamine MSM and Chondroitin supplements to minimize a tendency toward stiff and achy joints, especially when I'm exercising a lot. So I thought, fish oil, too? Well, why not? I'm pretty sure fish oil is good for you in any number of ways, but after taking a full course of these capsules (60 count), I can't say I noticed that much difference in my joints. Now, when I skip Glucosamine tablets for more than a day or two -THAT I notice. I doubt I'd go to the trouble of ordering more of these but perhaps I'm being short-sighted. One thing for sure: They aren't going to hurt.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program It's not my idea to take fish oil supplements. My family keeps saying how good they are for you and how they help you move better and not hurt so much and are good for your brain, yada yada. I'm getting up in years (60 of 'em) and have done a good bit of damage to bones and joints over time. Does this supplement help? I don't have a clue. But at least I can take it.

I've tried 3 or 4 other fish oil supplements--one was even a very small 'krill' something or other that was supposed to do wonders and not taste like fish. Me, I prefer to take my fish oil IN fish, but the first time I tried to take fish oil capsules I developed an aversion for salmon. I still don't like it much. With fish oil capsules, it felt like every breath I took in or out was fishy. My mouth couldn't shake the taste of rubber and fish (the capsules were thick and rubbery). I gave it up for a lost cause. Meantime my sister, who is 13 years older than me and very spry, keeps telling me how much her fish oil supplements help. I asked her how she could tolerate the taste. "Oh, you get used to it. You're exaggerating!" and words to that effect. She claims her sense of smell is going. Maybe her sense of taste is suffering too.

I tried capsules with thinner skins, capsules 'easier to swallow' (hah!) even fish oil flavored with lemon (not bad at all, but a bit messy to take. Left me with a lemon oil mouth and throat and a greasy tongue.) Last time I was home my sister was complaining she had had to stop her fish oil while she's taking some new heart med or something. In consequence her joints are aching. When I saw this supplement I figured I'd give fish oil ONE more try. Now I can take it, I'll have to finish the whole bottle and take it long enough to see if it does any good for my bones. My sister said she began to notice a difference after 3 months on her capsules. At least my breath doesn't seem fishy. Mayvbe I can kiss somone besides the cat.

The key point is, apparently you have to have a hefty dose of oil. The capsules either have to be big, or you take a lot of capsules. I like those little krill capsules, but there was a lot of 'plastic' capsule taste, and later, the inevitable fishy taste--not as strong as some, but fishy. These capsules are big, but tapered. They go down ok. They don't taste funny, and best of all they don't come back to haunt you later. Are they the fountain of youth? I'll keep you posted.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Wholemega Flex has good ingredients with solid science behind the individual components, but the results, at least in my house, were rather tepid. Read on for the break-down:

First, the ingredients. Rosehips are naturally high in complete Vitamin C (as opposed to just synthetic ascorbic acid) and Vitamin C is an important factor in collagen production. Turmeric, a favorite New Chapter ingredient, has a long history of use for inflammatory conditions (there's an interesting animal study in the November 2006 issue of "Arthritis and Rheumatism", if you want to check out just one example) and is present here in a 100 mg dose for 3 softgels. The base is NC's signature unfiltered Wild Alaskan salmon oil, controversial because it is truly unfiltered. The ultra-processing used by most salmon oil manufacturers ensures a product free from containments, but it also decimates the levels of naturally-occurring nutrients, in particular delicate Omega 7. The Omega 7 content (helpful for healing soft tissues) is preserved in New Chapter's Wholemega products. If you are comfortable consuming actual Wild Alaskan Salmon you should be comfortable with this.

The problem for me was efficacy. There just wasn't a real noticeable difference. Honestly, for acute joint/pain issues I think Zyflamend is still by far the best New Chapter product. The effect of Zyflamend is more dramatic and much quicker, and quick dramatic relief is what most people are looking for. At a relatively high price per dose, Wholemega Flex is a bit of a luxury. If you want to add it to your daily regimen, there's no real downside, but if it's a choice between Zyflamend or this, go with Zyflamend.

GRADE: B/B-

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program ...so I hope that they have a whole lot of Wholemega in them. Because I was not overall impressed.

I ordered these because I've had some good luck in getting vitamin E (and especially fish oil) to regulate menstrual cycles. To that goal, they've been a wash. The good thing is that they don't result in any "fishy hiccups" (as the drs like to call them) and they are relatively easy to take (for their size), considering what is apparently an enteric coating that minimizes the taste and the subsequent distaste for fish that many people have cited in their own reviews.

I've also had a problem with taking fish pills and having a follow-up of disinterest in fish. Since fish is a favorite food in my household, this is undesirable. But so is the irregularity thing. I thought that these would be a nice compromise, but I am not seeing the regularity that I'd hoped for.

As far as joint health goes, these are combined with a good old-fashioned (or new-fangled, depending upon your POV) glucosamine-chondroitin cocktail, so...no distinct improvements or set-backs there.

In general, not impressed, doesn't seem a great value, unless you're specifically looking for fish oil that causes no aftertaste. In which case, these MIGHT be worth the price. Your milage may vary, of course.

Our family has enjoyed using Thieves by YoungLiving....we used it in our diffuser for sick kids, gargled for sore throats and even with musty molding laundry when we lived on the coast. The downside was the cost $40 a bottle. This bottle seems to have the same properties, smells the same (which I like) and is a fraction of the price!

I love the smell; it is spicy, strong, and healthy. To boost immunities, we use this essential oil whenever someone in the house is sick or if one of the girls has an important event coming up, for example, singing or dancing performance. We apply it directly to the soles of our feet for quick absorption. We also use it in humidifiers and fountains and diffusers for airborne aromatherapy.

I buy three at a time and try to always have a bottle in the house, because you never know when someone in the family (or a guest!) will get sick.

For years we used the Thieves from Young Living which is excellent, but prohibitively expensive. We are so happy to have discovered this more affordable alternative.

I had used Young Living brand Thieves oil before trying this product. I got very good results with the Young Living Thieves oil, and I can say that this oil is very similar at a fraction of the cost.

This is definitely a pure blend without any fillers. The quality of the oils seems very good.

About a week after I received this oil I got an ear infection. I had a lot of pain in the left side of my head around my ear and a little bit of swelling. I diluted some of this oil in Olive oil and put a dab of it on a cotton swab, then stuffed this in my ear while I slept. I woke up the next morning and the pain was gone. It seemed to take care of my ear infection completely in one night. I repeated this again the next night just to be sure, and the ear infection never came back.

I'm very happy with this product and will purchase it again.

I was recently introduced to YL oils but they are extremely expensive, although I am assured that the quality is exceptional (organic, therapeutic grade only). However, for the purpose that I am using these oils, it seems that Plant Therapy is just as effective for a much more affordable price. :)

I almost feel bad writing this because my father sells Young Living/Thieves, and that was how I was introduced to the properties of Thieves. However, at around $40 for a 15ml a bottle, Thieves is just too expensive.

This oil does smell the same as Thieves, but Thieves is a bit stronger in smell. The ingredients are the same for both, but the order is different. I know that for food ingredients are listed in order of predominance from most to least, and I am assuming that these labels are the same. For Thieves the ingredients are listed as follows: clove, lemon, cinnamon, eucalyptus, and rosemary. For this oil, they are listed as follows: lemon, clove, eucalyptus, cinnamon, and rosemary.

I use this the same way that I use Thieves. I put a few drops in my vaporizer, and, when I really feel like I may be coming down with something, I will rub a couple drops on the bottoms of my feet. Of course I have not done a scientific test, but, as far as I can tell, the results are the same. While other people are hacking around me, I feel and stay fine.

When I bought this it was on sale for $7.99. I bought two not realizing that the bottle that was twice the size of my bottle of Thieves, which must be a sample sized bottle or something.

This is a good buy that seems to be as effective as Thieves.

I have found this scent to be a nice scent. it is neither too strong ( I've found the sage to absolutely the strongest of all the caldrea scents I've tried), nor too mild like the sea salt neroli. I have also found that once you adjust to these scents they become much milder. I consider myself sensitive to smells.

I was so looking forward to the mint scent, and am disappointed. Buyer beware: if you are sensitive to scents, DO NOT BUY THIS. I literally got a headache from using this in just one load of wash this morning. The only way I think I can use the rest of the product is to use only a teaspoon in the wash, or maybe dilute it with a great deal of water. I can't believe Caldrea states this is "a clean, light scent." It is anything but!

There is no Caldrea product that I do not like. The laundry detergents clean well with only an ounce of liquid. My clothes come out of the machine clean AND smelling good. I don't know that it does a better job than other detergents but I like the low suds and the clean smell. And, the small, easy to handle bottle.

There are many health concerns using chemicals on our skin. I've tried many other deodorants...and tossed them out. While watching Martha Stewart's TV show, she mentioned Dr. Hauschka's as her favorite deodorant. Being a college student in my 50's, (which is stressful and wonderful)...I feel confident it will hold up to my daily pressures. It costs more, but it's worth every penny.

Recently, I made the switch to aluminum-free deodorant, and this is my favorite. I've used other natural stick deodorants before, but none kept me feeling fresh through a normal day. I splurged on Dr. Hauschka's Fresh Deodorant Roll On at a health food store and am very pleased with it. It even passed my sunbathing test! It smells of sage, but it's not strong, so I doubt others pick up on the scent (I've always been an "unscented" gal anyway). I will buy it again regardless of the high cost. I feel it's worth it and it's got me wanting to try other Dr. Hauschka products!

This deodorant is gentle and effective. If you aren't accustomed to a roll-on you might find the initial application slightly cool and "wet" (which, of course, it is!), but it really takes care of business and doesn't contain any aluminum, which is a good thing.

For years I have tried numerous deoderant products that were natural and I was always dissappointed. They never were that effective. Then I read an article rating deoderants and Haushchka's was the top rated product. I bought my first one 3 years ago and never looked back. This product is fabulous, effective, long lasting and healthy for you. It's worth every penny.

Love this deodorant. Great scent and worked great for my 30 hour shift!!! Like that I'm using a more natural deodorant that's aluminum free. It's more expensive than drugstore brands but i think it's worth it given the ingredients and effectiveness!
