Arborvitae "Tree of Life"
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Known as the “tree of life,” Arborvitae is majestic in size
and abundant in therapeutic benefits. Arborvitae essential
oil has a high content of tropolones, a group of chemical
compounds that protect against environmental and
seasonal threats, have powerful purifying properties, and
promote healthy cell function. Hinokitiol, one of the
tropolones in Arborvitae, protects the body from harmful
elements while supporting normal cell activity. This
compound also contributes to Arborvitae’s natural insect
repellent properties. Thujic acid, another tropolone found
in Arborvitae, has been studied for its ability to protect
against common threats in the environment. Native to
Canada, all parts of the Arborvitae tree were used
extensively by Native Americans for health benefits and for building vessels, totem poles, baskets, and clothing.
Because of its natural preserving properties, Arborvitae
prevents wood from rotting, which makes it popular in
woodcraft and for preserving natural wood surfaces.

Cardamom
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A close relative to Ginger, Cardamom is known as being
the most expensive cooking spice and for being beneficial
to the digestive system in a variety of ways. Cardamom is
commonly used to help reduce indigestion and nausea,
and to soothe stomach discomfort and promote digestion.
Its distinct scent can lessen motion sickness while
promoting a positive mood. Cardamom has profound
effects on the respiratory system due to its high
1,8-cineole content, which promotes clear breathing and
respiratory health. Native to Southeast Asia, Cardamom is
added to traditional Indian sweets and teas for its cool, yet
minty aroma and flavor. dōTERRA Cardamom essential oil
is extracted from Cardamom seeds grown in Guatemala,
using our strict CPTG® testing standards. Through a
