Skip the flu shot this year!

I found something that works better than the flu shot.  I use this, my children use this and it works! Sip this tea 3 x's the first day you feel your body fighting off something.  It will be gone by evening, but repeat 3 x's the next day to boost your immune system.


Thieves is a mixture of clove, lemon, cinnamon, Eucalyptus and rosemary oils. 2 drops of thieves is enough, it's very potent.  Add more water if you accidently get 3 drops in your cup.

What's the difference between essential oil and the rest?
