Dr. Lam wrote: "Many people question whether a total and complete recovery from adrenal fatigue is possible. The answer is yes in the vast majority of cases, but only if done right. Adrenal fatigue often takes a decade or more to develop. It is important to allow the body time to recover. A few months of recovery is considered a short time within this time horizon. Time is a great healer when the body is given the proper nutrients along with proper lifestyle and dietary protocols. Those who demand a quick recovery invariably become disappointed because the body is not a light switch that can be turned on and off at will. A systematic and logical approach works the best under professional guidance."

Application Suggestions (See Essential Oil Usage for more information and a Dilution Chart.)
Topical: Dilute with a carrier oil, unscented lotion or unscented cream and apply over the adrenals or as desired morning and evening. Consider using a roll-on applicator for ease of application of prediluted oil. Per Tisserand, the maximum adult dermal dose of Cinnamon Bark to 0.07%. So, for the Revitalize blend, to follow Tisserand's suggestion, you would use 1 drop (of Revitalize) to 10mL of carrier oil.

Children: Not suitable topically for children under 2 due to skin irritation risk with Cinnamon Bark, Clove, Melissa and Oregano. Maximum safe topical dilution is 0.07%.

Inhalation: Diffuse or use a personal Nasal Inhaler

Internal: Revitalize is suitable for internal use within safe parameters if such use is deemed appropriate. Due to the potential skin irritating properties in Revitalize, Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt feels the preferred mode of use is ingestion, ideally taken by capsule diluted with a suitable carrier oil. We feel that internal use is rarely *needed* and should only be used with respect for how concentrated the oils are. HEO does not advocate internal use of essential oils without appropriate knowledge and understanding of how to administer, for what purpose, how much, which essential oils, safety concerns and so on. In our experience, essential oils are generally more effective used topically with proper dilution or inhaled. Kurt Schnaubelt Ph.D. notes that "French aromatherapy literature contains many references to using oils orally." He goes on to note that "generally 1 drop is always enough when ingesting essential oils." A potential toxicity hazard could occur when untrained people use essential oils orally and ingest too much. Keep in mind that while medical doctors or health care practitioners may prescribe essential oils for internal use, they are trained and experienced in the safe application of essential oils. It is not a matter of using "French aromatherapy" or "British" methods, it's a matter of experience and appropriate application.
The maximum daily adult oral dose should not exceed 30 drops (due to Cinnamon Bark).

1. This blend has literally turned my life around. After using it for a few weeks, I felt like a new person. When I ran out, I didn't replace the bottle right away because I was feeling so good. But within a few days, I dipped and fatigue overtook me again. I know my body is dealing with a number of health issues and gaining ground, but I'm not ready to go without this blend just yet. It keeps me going while my body is healing on the other fronts. All I have done with the blend is apply it to the bottoms of my feet morning and evening. I've not diffused it or taken it internally. It's hard to believe that something so simple can be so effective! - D. C.

2. Wow, what a great blend! I can't believe the difference this has made for me, and my family feels like they have Mom back among the living again. Has anyone else told you that it clears brain fog as well? I feel so much more connected now. I almost didn't try this because of the steep price, but now that I've seen such incredible results, I think, "What would a doctor's visit have cost me?" "What drugs would he have put me on that would have wrecked havoc on the rest of my body, and how much would that have cost both in $$ and physically?" For $30 I have my life back, and I feel like my body is healing for the first time in years. Thanks for a great blend! - C. C.

3. GAPS diet testimonial for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Two years ago, I became extremely sick with with CFS (so bad I was bed-ridden most of the time for a year). I started the GAPS diet 4 months ago, and within a month I was out in the park taking walks again. It's remarkable. Natasha (the author) stresses that the body can heal itself. It constantly renews and regenerates worn out, tired cells. But providing those building blocks is absolutely crucial, and this is what GAPS is all about. I'm still in the intro. because I'm having phenomenal success with it... albeit coping with some horrendous die-off. I'm really excited to see where I'll be by the end of the year. It's a day-to-day process. There are many ups and downs, but no doubt the trend is one of recovery. I was stunned at how quickly I was up and moving around. So patience is key. You can't start this expecting to feel better overnight. You'll feel better, then experience a round of die-off where you wonder why you ever decided to do this, and the cycle will repeat itself. I'd rather suffer for a short time now and completely "cure" the problem than to continue to watch my body fall apart for the rest of my life.

4. I have suffered from seasonal depression and chronic fatigue for years. Your Revitalize and Sunshine blend have helped immensely! - Mary

5. I am a male and was extremely tired all the time yet not able to sleep. I walked around with a foggy-brained. I learned that if the blood sugar gets too low while sleeping, the body wakes you up to keep you from going into a coma. Being awake stimulates enough glucose to keep you from sleeping permanently. These were the steps I took to turn my life around:
1) If/when I awake in the night, I eat some fruit and go back to bed.
2) Before bedtime, I drink a protein drink, which provides a slow-release source of glucose.
3) I eat smaller meals - graze rather than feast.This levels out the glucose and may help speed up metabolism for better weight control.
4) Dense proteins are desirable, long-lasting sources of glucose that I eat before 3 pm. I added free-range, organic eggs, organic, free-range chicken and organic wild salmon. Other than the protein shake, I want all foods digested before I climb into bed.
5) I supplement with Green Pasture BLUE ICE Royal Butter Oil/Fermented Cod Liver Oil Blend, Cinnamon Tingle for my essential fatty acids. Research shows that EFAs improve glucose and insulin control. It's also good for the brain (remember my foggy brain?), heart, joints, liver and so on. I read that Clove and Thyme essential oils dramatically slow fatty acid breakdown and oxidation, so I add some of HEO's Endurance blend to my CLO.
6) I did a colon cleanse, because if the colon is not right, that can cause a leaky gut causes brain fog.
7) I did a liver cleanse and use HEO's Liver/Gallbladder blend topically over my liver daily. A sluggish liver is not helping you, so do what you can to clean and support liver function.

6. I have struggled with exhaustion and fatigue my entire life. I've pretty much self-diagnosed myself with adrenal fatigue and thyroid issues as I have MANY of the symptoms. I started using the Revitalize blend directly on my adrenal glands about 3 weeks ago, and I'm really starting to notice a difference. It used to be, for years, that around 1pm I would crash and burn. If I couldn't lay down and close my eyes, I'd literally want to cry. I was just so so tired. I'm not saying that I'm full of energy now, but that crash and burn feeling is slowly lifting! Today I was able to paint my basement this afternoon instead of taking a nap! I'm excited to continue using the blend and to see where I am a year from now! Gotta make sure I don't run out! - Kristi

7. I am supposed to be taking 2 capsules of adrenal cortex fractions daily. Unfortunately, I was running low and all the vendors had the product on back order. I had to half my dose to make it last as long as possible this week. The resulting fatigue was bad. Needless to say, I was really desperate. So, I looked for a different brand adrenal cortex brand on a doctor's site that I trust, and I looked for what essential oils you guys have available that might do the best job of supporting my adrenals. I picked Revitalize. I am happy to say it came on Saturday and I applied some almost as soon as I knew it was here. I felt much better almost immediately. I do have to say, I did not dilute it. I put two drops in my hands and rubbed it into the area where I think the adrenals would be. This is some potent stuff! I can get back to having my life go back to normal while I wait for the adrenal cortex to arrive. :) Most importantly, my energy is returning. You can't put a price on that. UPDATE: Applying the Revitalize has helped boost my energy when it has been waning in the afternoon. It's especially a problem right before menstruation. After I was able to get back on my normal dosage of adrenal cortex, in combination with the oils, my chocolate cravings finally disappeared which was really awesome. - Mary

8. Eight months ago I started using Revitalize essential oil blend for my adrenals. I also used 1 drop of Thyroid Support. I also used Vitality diluted in Black Cumin oil. After a couple of months, I had to quit taking my thyroid prescription because I started exhibiting high thyroid symptoms (my thyroid is low without support). The blood work confirmed that my T4 was too high. So, this stuff really works. I think I now have a solution that works for me (and maybe my doctor). I really didn't want to manage my thyroid via prescription. - Mary

9. The changing season is always tough on my chronic fatigue. I used Revitalize on my feet and wrists (I had to look up where my adrenals are, but then I applied there too!) I noticed a significant improvement in energy and brain fog clearing. It didn't fix it, but it definitely made it a lot better. Thanks, Linda! - Julia

10. The oils have been a mental-health saver throughout this thing we're going through right now [COVID-19 quarantine]. I use the Sunshine and Revitalize (along with Vitex which I ordered for a different issue) in a necklace diffuser, and I've been handling this situation remarkably well. I struggled at first with depression and low energy, but ever since I started using the oils, I've not had anything I couldn't handle. - Melissa

Safety:
Oregano Contraindications (all routes): Pregnancy and breastfeeding
"When Origanum vulgare oil was fed to pregnant mice for two weeks at 1,000ppm (equivalent to 150mg/kg) [about 5 drops], there was a related increase in the rate of embryonic cell death." Tisserand/Young page 376. The concern is that Oregano demonstrates embryotoxicity, and a complete absence of risk to the nursing infant is impossible to demonstrate conclusively. Keep in mind that the dose is a critical component of this toxicity, and adverse effects will only occur when the dose exceeds a certain threshold, but determining that threshold is not simple, as extrapolating from studies in pregnant animals is problematic. Specifically in regard to Oregano, 150mg (about 5 drops) Oregano was fed to female mice for 2 weeks prior to mating. Oregano significantly increased the rate of embryonic cell death. "The negative effects seen in this study may be due to the high doses used, but we do not know what a safe dose might be . . . we have therefore contraindicated Oregano [for use during pregnancy and lactation]." Essential Oil Safety by Tisserand/Young, pages 153-155.

Oregano is not on the National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy (NAHA) avoid or use with caution list during pregnancy or nursing list.

Cinnamon Bark is not recommended internally for children under 6 years old, and use with caution and in greater dilution for children older than six. Tisserand sets the daily maximum adult oral dose to .22 mL.

Clove may exacerbate the blood thinning action of aspirin. Avoid in cases of hemophilia or severe kidney or liver disease.

Cinnamon Bark is contraindicated during pregnancy.

Cinnamon Bark may influence blood sugar levels.

May be irritating to those with sensitive skin. May be sensitizing due to aldehydes. Tisserand sets the maximum adult dermal dose to 0.05%.

Clove Medication Caution: Tisserand notes that "since eugenol significantly inhibits human MAO-A (Tao et al 2005), oral doses of eugenol-rich essential oils may interact with pethidine, indirect sympathomimetics, MAOIs or SSRIs." Caution is advised when Clove essential oil is ingested in conjunction with certain foods if taking MAO inhibiting antidepressants. Those containing tyramine, which include cheese, may precipitate a hypertensive crisis (Blackwell & Mabbitt 1965), while tryptophan-containing foods may lead to elevated serotonin levels.

Avoid contact with the eyes and other sensitive areas. Essential oils are both lipophilic and hydrophobic. Lipophilic means they are attracted to fat—like the membranes of your eyes and skin. They are also hydrophobic, meaning they do not like water. Flushing with water will only send the essential oil back to the eye's membranes. Applying a carrier oil will create another fat for the essential oil to be attracted to other than the membranes of the eyes or skin. We’ve not known this to cause permanent injury or long-term discomfort, but if you feel concerned, please call your health care provider.
