The innovative CPTG™ protocol includes stability studies, where essential oils are monitored and tested long after the oils are sold. This testing ensures the essential oils remain at the same leading standard of quality even years after purchase.
All of these tests are conducted in our lab, where trained professionals keep a close eye on every result, all to ensure that customers and Wellness Advocates receive the best possible benefit from our dōTERRA essential oils.
