YOU CANNOT BE FEEDING THESE TO PEOPLE OMG 🤦🏽‍♀️

The horror I just came across on my ig 😷

Okay, but even if essential oils were edible, which they are not, companies charge an arm and a leg for tiny bottles of half-synthetic essential oils. Wouldn’t it be cheaper in the end to just buy a bottle of extract if all you’re going to do is use it for flavorings? Because you’re just tossing your health and your stomach lining away if this is what you’re doing with your DoTerra.

*screeches*

Y’all are missing the fact that OP is promoting a pyramid scheme which makes this even more reprehensible

what the hell are you all talking about? peppermint essential oil is edible, and it tastes great in hot chocolate

Umm, it’s super duper not though.

maybe it isn’t that safe, but i only use one to two drops and that goes a long way in flavor. i just don’t understand how this cant be edible as ive never felt sick from eating it.

Because the toxin build up to your internals isn’t going to kill you instantly. It’s not poison, it’s toxic. Yes, toxic. Even a single drop, diluted, is waaaaay too many chemicals for your body to process. So it nopes out and filters them. Putting additional strain on your kidney and liver. And that’s of you’re lucky enough to skip the chemical burns.

If you like peppermint, buy a fucking plant. Or extract, that is actually meant to be ingested.

Like, do you all hate yourselves so much that you just don’t care? I don’t get it.

@biologyweeps have you ever heard of people trying to bake with essential oils?

Well I certainly have now….

Please don’t bake with essential oils, these things are not food safe and were never intended to go through food. The processing that food goes through (baking, the chemical interactions inside the food, etc) can influence what the essential oil is doing in there.

There are oils safe for human consumption, which are usually diluted down to safe levels so that you can use them as flavouring. They’re usually not sold as essential oils because they’re not in fact that, as they are strongly diluted. Use those if you want to flavour your things. Not…whatever the hell this is. Please. 

Decades of screaming to white people “FLAVOR YOUR FOOD” and THIS is what we come up with lmaoo

Oh look, Poison Control wrote an article on why you shouldn’t ingest them.

My favorite bit is this:

“If someone swallows an essential oil, or a product containing essential oils, use the webPOISONCONTROL® online tool for guidance or call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222 right away. Poison Control will help you figure out if this could be dangerous and will tell you exactly what to do.”

DO NOT BAKE WITH ESSENTIAL OILS!!!

doterra actively encourages you to put a drop of peppermint essential oil on your tongue as an alternative to breath mints

I literally read through the warnings on my tea tree oil a while back and I’m pretty certain I remember it listing things like “Loss of leg function/loss of speech” under “effects of ingestion”

@thebibliosphere doterra strikes again. god why???

I get tagged in this post reliably about every three months or so, but I never get tired of it because of the Facts being brought out in force. Beautiful.
