Day 19 – Thieves Tea
Thieves is not only great for diffusing and cleaning, but also safe for ingesting. Thieves is not only yummy, but has amazing health benefits.
Young Living has a vitality line that has been approved by the FDA. These oils have a white label and can be ingested. Do not ingest any oils other than these, especially not from your nearby grocery store. Those oils often contain fillers and synthetic fragrances.
For the next few days, we will talk about ways to ingest Thieves vitality oil. Thieves has several health benefits when ingested:
- boosts immune system
- fights nasal and sinus congestion
- supports respiratory health
- can fight infections
- promotes cardiovascular health
- uplifts mood
- can help soothe a sore throat
This tea is great to drink for seasonal illness or when you are sick. Young Living makes some super yummy teas you can purchase such as vanilla lemongrass tea, orange rose hip black tea, and spiced turmeric herbal tea.
Thieves Tea
Make your favorite cup of tea and add 1-2 drops of Thieves Vitality oil. As we’ve learned, a little Thieves goes a long way. 🙂
I like to add a Thieves to the turmeric herbal tea. Turmeric and Thieves together makes my heart sing. I usually add 2 drops to my tea. The oil will settle at the top so you can add a pinch of salt to help mix if you’d like (you don’t taste the salt).
