You aren't supposed to use any of these pure oils in their concentrated form. I don't know what was going on in that video segment which showed it being applied to the skin, when he was talking about his Crohn's Disease, but I'm guessing it was added to a carrier oil such as almond or coconut. The oils themselves which you can buy from various companies are too powerful on their own, so you mix them in water, juice or a carrier oil for topical applications.
My dad used to take Oreganol every day. He would put some drops in his his juice.
Those oils looked like DoTerra oils, so I'm guessing this is a piece of marketing from the company. Still, the information is factual, as these oils can certainly many pathogens. Did you know that Tea Tree oil is so powerful it can destroy MRSA? Hospitals have a tough time keeping Staph infections away, but with a simple topical application to sensitive areas like wounds, you can easily disinfect when prepared in the correct concentration.
You can use oils straight...you just have to know what you are doing...there are safety procedures that need to be followed. Many oils work best at 1:1 ratio...oil to carrier oil. Robert Tisserand wrote the definitive book on essential oil safety. He advises for the company Plant Therapy.
The biggest concern is the dilution rates and the recommended oils for pregnancy, babies, children and teens. There is much to know to use essential oils safely. Plant Therapy has a chart of dilution rates on their website and one available to order that is very valuable. I highly recommend the oreganol your dad used...excellent product with very specific directions for use. They carry products for children. Also if you want to topically increase the absorption rate of a topical oil, cover it with a wet cloth and heat. Water and heat increases absorption...which is why spa baths are so useful.

Tea tree oil is incredible! I used a couple drops in the bathtub when my twins were little to keep the never-ending yeast infections from ever occurring. I wasn't awake at that time and now I feel the vaccines are what caused them to suffer with them so much.
