Thieves Oil – just in case there really is a plague

I am reasonably confident the truth of this new virus will elude we the little people. It might be real, made up, exaggerated, downplayed, natural mutation, man-made biological weapon created in a Chinese lab owned by George Soros, smuggled into China from a Canadian lab … gosh the stories are all over the place. I am taking my time believing any of them.

A couple of FERSHURs for you:

1 – A healthy immune system is our best preparation in case a genuine pandemic does begin to spread. There is no vaccine that helps that, in fact all of them injure the recipient’s immune system.

2 – Thieves Oil is a proven tool that helps humans resist plague infection.

As the story goes, during the height of the Bubonic plague sweeping Europe and Asia, four thieves from Marseilles became famous for robbing the possessions of the infected dead – yet never caught the plague themselves.

People were stunned that these thieves were able to touch the bodies and remain healthy, as the plague was highly contagious. Word began to spread of this special concoction that could be soaked into a towel and wrapped over the nose to prevent the “pestilence” from entering.

This is a very real, time-proven method of sustaining your health while in the midst of people who are losing their. A websearch https://duckduckgo.com/?q=theives+oil returns many natural health sources with evidence and resources for making or buying the products necessary to make Thieves Oil, along with a variety of recipes. I encourage you to chase them down for resources as well as evidencing the veracity of what I included here. 

The following article came from the website PALEOHACKS. All the links are hers and will take you to other resources she has published.

Research has found that cinnamon is anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antidiabetic, and can even help fight cancer and neurological diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. (5)

Eucalyptus Essential Oil

The active ingredient in eucalyptus is proven to be effective against many powerful viruses and bacteria, such as tuberculosis and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). It also stimulates your immune system and can help relieve respiratory conditions such as asthma. (6)

Rosemary Essential Oil

Rosemary contains powerful compounds that can help prevent neural cell death (in the case of neurological diseases), protect against brain inflammation, and also lend its strong antibacterial and anticancer properties. (7)

Black mold, candida and other various fungus and yeast strains have no fighting chance against Thieves oil. Cinnamon bark oil in particular has been shown to inhibit fungi and other respiratory tract strains when diffused and inhaled. (13)

Another study showed that wax paper coated in cinnamon oil was able to completely prevent a type of mold from forming on sliced bread, even after three days. (14)

3. Thieves Oil Improves Brain Health and Fights Cancer

Several of the oils in Thieves prevent neural cell death and brain inflammation, as well as help kill cancer cells and slow tumor growth.

Thieves Essential Oil Uses

Thieves Essential Oil Uses

Thieves oil can be used in several ways for your health. Check them out:

Topically

Thieves’ antimicrobial properties make it excellent for use on your skin. Make sure you dilute with a carrier oil (like coconut oil), adding 6 drops to 1 ounce carrier oil before applying. Make sure to test the carrier oil blend on a patch of skin before applying in case you have a bad reaction.

Inhaled

You can diffuse Thieves oil throughout your home and inhale it in order to help clear up a cold or respiratory infection. Simply add a few drops to a diffuser and breathe deeply.

Orally

Thieves oil can also be ingested to reap its benefits. However, since essential oils are powerful concentrations, they can sometimes have a burning effect on the esophagus or lining of the stomach, altering digestive function. Before ingesting any essential oil, make sure to consult with your medical practitioner first, as they can recommend the best way to take Thieves oil orally.
