Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.
I suffer with recurring urinary tract infections (UTI). Most of the time when I feel a UTI coming on, I put the following blend of therapeutic-grade essential oils into a veggie capsule:
* 3 to 4 drops Lemon
* 1 drop Oregano
* 1 to 2 drops Thieves blend
I swallow a capsule 2 to 3 times a day for the first day. Then, in accordance with how I am feeling, I cut down to one time a day. I usually use vegan capsules, but this recipe also works being added to water or juice.
I have been experimenting with these three essential oils, and I think the Lemon oil actually works the best. I use the others mainly because of their antibiotic effect.
Sometimes I even put these oils into my NingXia Red juice.

| 1. | Associated topics: antibiotic — "As proven in vitro, essential oils [Eucalyptus, Melaleuca Alternifolia, Thyme, Lavender, Lemon, Lemongrass, Cinnamon, Grapefruit, Clove, Sandalwood, Peppermint, Sage] represent a cheap and effective antiseptic topical treatment option even for antibiotic-resistant strains [such] as MRSA and antimycotic [antifungal]-resistant Candida species." | Link |
| 2. | Associated topics: urinary-tract-infection-(UTI) — "14 plant essential oils -- anise (Pimpinella anisum), bay leaves (Laurus nobilis), cinnamon bark (Cinnamomum verum), clove (Eugenia caryophyllata), fennel (Foeniculum vulgare), hop (Humulus lupulus), Istanbul oregano (Origanum vulgare subsp. hirtum), Izmir oregano (Origanum onites), mint (Mentha piperita), myrtus (Myrtus communis), orange peel (Citrus sinensis), sage (Salvia officinalis), thyme (Thymbra spicata), and Turkish oregano (Origanum minutiflorum) -- were related to inhibition of 10 bacteria (Listeria innocua, coagulase-negative staphylococci, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Yersinia enterocolitica, Salmonella Enteritidis, Salmonella Typhimurium, Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli O157:H7, and Klebsiella oxytoca)." | Link |
| 3. | Associated topics: bladder-pain-(Interstitial-Cystitis-/-IC),urinary-tract-infection-(UTI),bladder — "[Tea tree (melaleuca alternifolia)] oil has been found effective in chronic cystitis." | Link |
| 4. | Associated topics: bladder — "Frankincense oil appears to distinguish cancerous from normal bladder cells and suppress cancer cell viability. Microarray and bioinformatics analysis proposed multiple pathways that can be activated by frankincense oil to induce bladder cancer cell death. Frankincense oil might represent an alternative intravesical agent for bladder cancer treatment." | Link |

[R]elative to anise essential oil, the essential oils of oreganos, cinnamon, and thyme had consistently high inhibitory effects....
