Young Living Thieves Oil 15ml
The story goes there were four thieves who robbed the dead of their valuables during the Plague of the 15th century without becoming infected themselves. As is the case, the authorities found this act naughty and the four thieves were captured and charged with robbing the dead and dying.
At the trial, in Marseilles, France, the magistrate offered them leniency if they would reveal how, in spite of their close contact with infected corpses, they managed to avoid contracting the dreaded bubonic plague. It was disclosed that these thieves were simple perfume and spice traders who had rubbed themselves with a concoction of essential oils including cinnamon, clove and rosemary.
The formula for the Young Living Essential Oil blend, Thieves, is derived from the aromatic herbs used by these thieves of 15th century France. This proprietary blend was university tested and found to be highly effective fortifying defenses.

Thieves
And YES, we say – boy o boy !! Thankyou so much for this amazing information.
We’ve used the Thieves for 2 times already, and I must say that my boy had a sore throat, and straight away after I finished reading your article I remembered that we do have at home this oil so I put one drop of the Thieves oil on his tongue, yes he jumped a little bit … (quite strong stuff) and then he followed the steps (with the teeth and the gum…) and that’s it!
Now we are couple of days later and he feels fantastic, No sore throat – it’s gone. And I’m just wondering if we need to continue for maintain or not. We would love to hear from you, and also we very much enjoy reading your articles, Sooooo So interesting !!! All the very best to you!

Thieves drink
I just want to thank you for the cough and sore throat recipe using warm water, honey, lemon and Thieves oil.
My husband and I just love it and what’s best is my children will happily drink it. Even when they’re not ill (which is very rare since we’ve been using the Thieves oil) they’ll still ask for it as a warm drink. Jenny

Cold no more
I woke up with a sore throat a couple of days ago and I did the one drop on the tongue because I’m a little bit susceptible to colds and the Thieves worked a treat. It knocked it down virtually in one day so I did it again a couple of times and no cold. Would recommend it to everyone and I do. Great article and very good advice. Much appreciated!
