4. TRANSPARENCY—Anyone can visit any of the Young Living farms or partner farms around the globe.
    

5. INVOLVEMENT—Anyone can participate in the harvest & distillation process.
   No other essential oil company can offer this incredible opportunity.
    

6. NO CORNERS CUT—Young Living embodies the "Farm to Table" concept, and uses organic farming practices including WEED CONTROL BY HAND (see the "Little Known Fact, above right).
    

7. PURITY—Young Living's pure essential oils contain all critical therapeutic compounds —nothing more, nothing less. (Conversely, the vast majority of essential oils out there—even the ones labelled "pure" in health food stores—can be fragrance-grade oils with little or no therapeutic value. These oils may have an essential oil base, but often contain additives, fillers, and synthetics to increase volume or fragrance.)
    

8. POTENCY—Young Living oils meet all industry AFNOR and ISO standards and are subjected to isotopic ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) analysis which determines whether a particular essential oil is naturally sourced or synthetic (created in a lab).
    

9. QUALITY—Young Living uses the finest production practices in the industry. They distill oils only ONCE at low temperatures and pressures, using chemical-free water and medical-grade stainless steel cone-shaped distillers.
    

10. SELECTION—With well over 120 different
    oils, Young Living has the greatest selection
    of singles & blends on the market, with each 
    unique blend carefully crafted by Gary Young.
     

11. INTEGRITY—Each batch is rigorously tested in-house (15+ tests in triplicate) for therapeutic viability. If it doesn’t pass their strict quality standards, Young Living won’t bottle or sell it (and rather than disposing of it, they will put it to good use with pest or weed control—brilliant!). 
     

12. ACCOUNTABILITY—Young Living uses 3rd party testing verification via labs around the world, utilizing all 20 of the 20 tests available (including 6 forensic labs).
    NOTE: Their nearest competitor only uses 7 of the 20, and others even less than that.
     

13. THOROUGHNESS—Young Living is the only company to submit their oils to AIRAISE (Association for Int'l Research of Aromatic Science & Education) for purity testing.
     

14. LONGEVITY—Most essential oils have expiration dates, Young Living oils do not. 100% pure essential oils (excluding citrus) that have not been adulterated with fillers will last indefinitely if properly stored away from heat and sunlight. 
     

15. GRAS-CERTIFIED—Young Living has a growing selection of ingestible oils that have been certified as "GRAS" (Generally Regarded as Safe) by the FDA. 
     

16. NO STRINGS—There are no minimum sales or purchase requirements for Young Living members to maintain their membership. Ever. The only thing needed to keep one's membership active is to place a $50 (US) order once a year.
     

17. GENEROSITY—Young Living members are given the option of simply "Rounding up" their orders to the nearest dollar to support the Young Living Foundation  which is profoundly changing lives around the world. All administrative costs are fully funded by the company, so millions of dollars in member donations go 100% directly to the dozens and dozens of Young Living-initiated humanitarian projects every year. 
     

18. SUPPORT—And lastly! You're not alone in the journey! The global support from our community of wellness-seekers and oil lovers makes learning how to integrate essential oils into your life both entirely accessible... and just plain fun!
