If you have experienced a sinus infection, a respiratory infection, or a never ending cough this winter you will want to read more about these inexpensive, safe, and very effective natural remedies.
Usually these start with virus that is going around and then turn into an infection of some sort. Once your head starts feeling heavy and achey you know you are too late to prevent this and you now must get ahead of it. These can sometimes take days or weeks to get rid of, especially the cough. I have come across some great videos that I recommend watching that will teach you how to help with these ailments.
The first video below is a short recording from Dr David Steuer. He teaches how bacteria changes over time and creates a protective layer. They also can make a biofilm. Very useful anti-bacterial medications that at one point were helpful are no longer effective. Stronger anti-bacterial medications that can have adverse effects on our body are one option. Another is to use Melaleuca. It has the ability to modify that bio-film sludge and remove it. This allows the Oregano to get to the bacteria. The Oregano oil is high in Carvacrol. The Carvacrol will bind to the bacteria and causes it to burst open. This is a very effective anti-bacterial solution that is much less expensive and less harmful on the body.
The best way to get these oils into the body are to swallow a capsule with Oregano, Melaleuca, and some other helpful essential oils. I like to use Frankincense, Thyme, Clove, or Lemon. Depending on the circumstance. DoTerra has a product called On Guard plus which already has a variety of virus and bacteria killing oils in softgel. So you can make your own capsule or swallow a premade one. If you cannot swallow you can rub the oils on the feet.
Nicole Stevens has done research with some of the most harmful microorganisms and used essential oils on them to see their effectiveness. The most effective oils that she found were Oregano, Thyme, and Cinnamon. (against e coli, staph, salmonella, candida, and a few others tested)
Jennifer Eddins has done research using the On Guard blend against MRSA. (MRSA is a staph bacteria that becomes resiliant to anibiotics. The On Guard is shown to help kill the MRSA even when antibiotics cannot. Also it was amazing to learn that when you clean a surfance with On Guard the harmful organisms are not viable for 7 days.
There was also a study done showing that the On Guard blend caused a reduction in the H1N1 Influenza Virus by 90%.
The essential oils have been proven in these studies to not only be more effective than antibiotics but in most of these cases antibiotics are not even able to treat the organism.
This is another video showing a helpful tip if you have a nagging cough from your sinuses. Watch this video to get a recommendation from Dr Steuer that is very easy and inexpensive. You will need Oregano, Lemon, Peppermint, and Melaleuca. You will also need a mug of steaming water. Dr Steuer uses this method in his practice.
I do not think there is a virus or bacteria that these essential oils cannot help with. If they are used with the right level of intensity. If you can take an On Guard plus before you get sick you will be able to use much less. If you are finding yourself or family sick already you will need to take 3-5 capsules a day until you feel better.

You will want to have the Breathe oil in a diffuser during the night so you can get a more restful sleep. During the day you will want to diffuse On Guard so that the rest of the family does not get what you have.
Here is one more fun video that a high school kid did as an experiment for his science fair. See how he shocks the teacher with his findings.
The effect of essential oils Clove Bud and Oregano vs Amoxicillin against E Coli.
Oregano was almost twice as effective as the anti-biotic you would get prescribed from a doctor.
Another help is to do an Aromatouch massage if you are starting to feel like you are coming down with something. This is strengthen your immune system and reset your body to homostasis.
If the respitory infection seems to take a while to go away you can also try applying oils to the chest in a layered fashion like the Aromatouch. (Balance, Lavender, Melaleuca, Thyme, Cypress, and Eucalyptus) You may need the fractionated coconut oil to do this to spread the oils out easier and also to prevent any irritation from the hotter oils (Thyme, Oregano, Cinnamon, On Guard) For added help add a warm damp compress to the chest on top of the oils.
Some people find a netipot helpful when they have a sinus infection. It is a nasal irrigation technique. You can add some oils like eucalyptus, rosemary, and frankincense to the netipot saline solution if you would like additional benefits.
Hopefully after some of the above informaiton you have some confidence in using the esential oils when you or a family member is sick. Prevention is always going to be the best method and can be accomplished by using the follow tips.
1. Wash hands with On Guard Hand Wash many times throughout the day. Especially when you come and go from the home.
2. Clean the counters, floors, and door knobs with the On Guard Cleaning concentrate. (remember no bacteria can grow for 7 days!)
3. Apply On Guard on your kids feet 1-2X daily
4. Diffuse On Guard in your home. Breathing it into your mucus membrance can prevent any harmful organism from setting up camp in your sinuses.
5. If you travel on a plane take On Guard and breathe it in every 30 mins in your hands.
6. Use On Guard Laundry detergent on your clothing and bedding. (kill off all microorganisms that may be harmful or make the clothes smell)
These tips have been very helpful for me and my family. We have not gone to the doctor for an illness in more than 3 years. These oils have saved us time and time again. Please pay it forward and pass these tips on to someone else. It will make their life much easier and save them a ton of doctor bills.
