Supports healthy thyroid function soothes minor skin irritations and inflammation. Also consider Vitality blend.
Internal: Thyroid Support is suitable for internal use within safe parameters if such use is deemed appropriate. 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 internally." 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. Click here for information about internal usage.
2. I have been using the Thyroid Support and Vitality for one week, and today I get to lower my synthroid meds. I am beyond excited!! God is healing me! Back in six weeks to check levels again... can't wait to see what six weeks of using these oils does for me. I'm believing that my thyroid will start working again!! Yay! I made a roller bottle with about 15-25 drops of Thyroid Support, then I filled the roller bottle with a carrier oil. I have been rolling that on my neck over my thyroid morning and night. I then have been putting 1-2 drops of the Vitality blend with a carrier oil on thyroid area and kidney area another time during the day. I try to do it at lunch time. Some days I only applied the Thyroid Support in morning and Vitality at night. I could tell it was working because I started getting that hyperthyroid feeling. I still have my thyroid, and I've gone from hyper to hypo, so that is why I was on synthroid. Tests showed I have thyroiditis and my thyroid had stopped working. But God is healing me!!! UPDATE: God used both Thyroid Support and Vitality to get me off of my thyroid meds. It took about 6 months along with prayer, a gluten-free diet and a thyroid supplement. I had hypothyroidism. I still use the essential oils daily to keep my thyroid up and running. My endocrinologist just scratched his head. He said he's never seen anything like it. Praise the Lord!!! - Britta 3. Eight months ago 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 4. In July of this year I started having problems with my pulse dropping and then my heart would flutter. I felt terrible, not energy, could not sleep. My regular doctor sent me to a cardiologist. After several thousands of dollars in tests I was told that my heart was fine and was sent on my way. I still felt awful. After doing a little trial and error on my own I found that the medicine the doctor had me on for my pulse running too high was actually making it too low. So I stopped taking that. But I still had the heart flutter with no energy and feeling bad. I ordered the Thyroid Support from Hopewell. I got the smaller bottle just to try it. AND WOW, WHAT A DIFFERENCE. As soon as I got it home I mixed it with coconut oil in a roller ball bottle and applied to my neck. I did not have any heart flutter the rest of the day. The next day, I waited until my heart started to flutter and I put the Thyroid Support on. Within minutes the fluttering stopped. I keep my Thyroid Support with me all the time, and if I have any flutter, I use it right away. I am feeling better. I love Thyroid Support and Hopewell Oils. I have used many of HEO's products and recommended them to family and friends. Matter of fact, my son came in this morning with his back just killing him. He looked terrible. I used Pain X on his back and within minutes he was feeling better. No pain. Thank your for your wonderful oils. - Alice 5. I am enjoying your oils so much. I had a hot thyroid nodule and have been using Thyroid Support and Vitality diluted at 3%, and after a month of use, it is half the size. Thank you. - Lisa
6. I find that my brain fog is greatly reduced when using Thyroid Support. I wonder if it is also working on the hypothalamus as well as the thyroid. It makes such a difference for me. - Lois 7. My hair was falling out in clumps and I called and talked to Linda. She suggested doing things to support my thryoid, so I decided to give the Thyroid Support blend a try. It's been amazing! I think I would have lost all my hair had it not been for this wonderful blend. - Lowelle
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.
