Thieves: A natural air purifier
By Doc Kim on Nov 17, 2009 in Aromatherapy for Dogs, Natural Yard & Home for Dogs, Pet Vaccinations
With all the overdone flu news in the media scaring everyone about H1N1 and now about Canine Flu, it’s seems just plain common sense that we take a proactive approach humans instead of the fear-mongered reactive approach, WOOF! And it would do humans good to dig deep and learn the truth about vaccines in the process!
At any rate, one of the proactive ways we take in our home is to diffuse a variety of essential oils. One of our favorites, especially during flu season is to diffuse Thieves Essential Oil blend. Here is what my human shared on a natural dog health care group recently: 
Thieves acts as a purifier among other things and it is so versatile!
From the Essential Oils Desk Reference here is what Dr. Young, the Founder of Young Living has to say about the blend:
“A blend of highly antiviral, antiseptic, antibacterial, anti-infectious essential oils. Thieves was created from research of a group of 15th-century thieves who rubbed oils on themselves to avoid contracting the plague while they robbed the bodies of the dead and dying. When apprehended, these thieves disclosed the formula of herbs, spices, and oils they used to protect themselves in exchange for more lenient punishment. Studies conducted at Weber State University (Ogden, UT) during 1997 demonstrating its killing power against airborne microorganisms. One analysis showed a 90% reduction in the number of gram positive Micrococcus luteus organisms after diffusing for 12 minutes. After 20 minutes of diffusing, the kill-rate jumped to 99.3%. Another study against the gram negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed a kill rate of 99.96% after just 12 minutes of diffusion.”
We cold air diffuse in our home since that helps everyone in the house, cleans the air, and also repels insects.
