There are many brands of essential oils available and it can be confusing. Many essential oils are adulterated and filled with synthetics. The limited regulations for essential oils means that you really don’t know what is in the bottle, even if it says that it is 100% pure. When choosing an essential oil company, do some research. Consider the following questions:
- Where were the plants grown?
- How and when were the plants harvested?
- What is the distillation process?
- What type of testing is done?
- Are all batches tested?
- Are the essential oils safe for consumption?
dōTERRA committed to providing the best possible essential oil products, through stringent testing, sourcing, growing and harvesting practices. Read the dōTERRA fact sheet here

CPTG - Certified Pure Tested Grade
dōTERRA CPTG Certified Pure Tested Grade essential oils are pure, natural, aromatic compounds carefully extracted from plants. They do not contain fillers or artificial ingredients that would dilute their active qualities and are free of contaminants such as pesticides or other chemical residues. The oils are ethically and sustainably sourced and cruelty free.
Many oils claim to be therapeutic grade, and some may be pure, but few are subjected to rigorous testing standards for chemical composition. dōTERRA CPTG Certified Pure Tested Grade essential oils represent the safest and most beneficial oils available in the world today.
dōTERRA utilises 7-8 methods of testing to provide such CTPG oils. Each one of these tests is run 3 times through a 3rd party laboratory before essential oils are bottled! These tests include: Gas Chromatography, Mass Spectrometry, Fourier TransformInfrared Spectroscopy, Microbial Testing, and Organoleptic Testing. Read more about CPTG testing here
Co-Impact Sourcing
Maintaining the high standard of quality set by dōTERRA for purity, potency, and consistency of our essential oils involves following a proven process that yields industry leading quality. Where a plant is grown has a major impact on its constitution, which in turn determines its potency.
Many of the essential oils come from countries that are facing economic and environmental challenges, such as Guatemala, Haiti, and Somalia. Through dōTERRA’s Co-Impact Sourcing initiative they are creating jobs and income in countries where they are much needed, which is helping to develop long term partnerships with growers and distillers around the world.
Plants grown in traditional or indigenous environments yield better results because the natural elements specific to that region promote a more therapeutic profile of the aromatic compounds produced by the plant. Our oils are indigenous to the area where they are grown - they are truly global!
