Essential oils have truly nourishing properties, and grapefruit is no exception. Grapefruit essential oil is one of the most refreshing and uplifting essential oils on the planet, and doTERRA’s Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade is the purest grapefruit oil on the market. Grapefruit oil is well known as an energizer and invigorator, a mood booster, a metabolism supporter, and as a purifying/detoxifying oil.

How many times have you been at a grocery store, restaurant, or even in front of your refrigerator and felt totally confused and helpless about what you should eat? With all the endless food options, mass-marketing from food companies, and new studies coming out every day that tell you a new food that will either kill you or heal you, it can be overwhelming to make the seemingly simple decision of how to nourish your body at any given moment. So what do we usually go for?

Ok, cool – so what about what your body actually needs?
