Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Hi Pam Welcome. A number of folkds have problems with the MLM structure and with the blending of theology and business. In addition, some list members paid to run independent tests, which uncovered inconsistencies and aberrations in the oils, showing them to be diluted, artificial, or not what is on the label. Part of the problem is that our noses are easily fooled, unless we've had the 40 years' of training as a perfumer. What we think is wonderful may be totally artificial. Many aromatherapists have been chagrined to discover that their subjective analysis of the purity and even identify of an oil is wrong. In addition, some of the recommended treatments (RDT is the poster child for this) can cause severe irritation and/or sensitation. The practioners then explain away the blisters caused by caustic oils as part of the cleansing process. A number of folks have come forward with permanent scarring from the burns they received from using the neat oils. A related issue is the insistence that YL oils are so pure they can't be harmful. The analogy used to argue against this is that poison oak sap and snake venom can be very pure and very harmful. Many oils, though natural, can be very harmful. Plants create some of the oils to defend against predators by burning their mouths. So this combination of concerns, along with some of Gary Young's personal history, cause a lot of folks on this list to froth at the mouth. I think their concern is justified, although their lack of tact and sensitivity probably interferes with their ability to communicate!! Keep asking questions.
