Top Oils for ENERGY

I don't think there's a parent out there who wouldn't like more energy. We're busy & TIRED. Even with enough sleep, come 3pm or 4pm it's common to feel like we're d..r..a..g..g..i..n..g.

Are you trying to kick the caffeine habit, or at least reduce it?

Or are there times you deal with brain fog?

Even though you try to eat good food & get enough sleep, there's still late nights where you might be trying to finish up projects, or you're up with a sick child, or helping with homework.

There's also those times when you're traveling & dealing with jet lag.

For whatever your particular reason ... here are ways to get good, clean, non-habit forming energy when you need it, & also give your brain the support it needs.

And the good news is these natural options work fast!

Top Essential Oils for ENERGY:

MetaPWR Advantage Collagen + NMN:

Take one of these a day.

As you age, so does your metabolic function. Your metabolism influences your energy, weight, body composition, & even your cognitive performance. MetaPWR Advantage was developed with doTERRA researchers to help maintain healthy cell & organ function, to keep you mentally energized, & to promote healthy weight & body composition.

MetaPWR Advantage contains NMN & resveratrol, & boosts metabolic health by increasing NADH & NAD+ production in the body & activating the SIRT longevity genes. It also contains nine types of collagen tripeptides from marine sources, which may improve skin elasticity, density, & firmness & support lean muscle & connective tissue.

This ingredient list is so great for many things…including your energy levels!

  • Marine Collagen

  • Liposomal Vitamin C

  • Sea Buckthorn Fruit Extract

  • NMN Enriched Yeast

  • Red Orange Fruit Extract

  • Hyaluronic Acid

  • Grapefruit Essential Oil

  • Lemon Essential Oil

  • Peppermint Essential Oil

  • Ginger Essential Oil

  • Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil

This really is a hero product & just to make sure you understand the significance of having NINE types of marine collagen, here's what those nine types do:

  • Collagen type I is related to skin beauty.

  • Collagen type II is related to bone protection & is the main component of cartilage.

  • Collagen type IV is the main protein of the basement membrane, connecting the dermis & the epidermis & forming a network structure to make the basement membrane malleable.

  • Collagen type V is related to the regular arrangement of collagen fibers, stabilizing the structures of type I & type II collagen.

  • Collagen type VI maintains mechanical function in the cell, supporting both muscle function & cell membrane integrity. Additionally, this collagen type inhibits oxidative damage & apoptosis.

  • Collagen type IX is an important component of cartilage & is mainly distributed in the cartilage cells of growth plates, joints, & intervertebral discs.

  • Collagen type XXV inhibits the fibrillation of amyloid beta peptide. (If you aren't familiar, amyloid beta is what builds up in the brains of people with Alzheimer's)🤯

  • Col1a2 protein is collagen fibrillin.

  • Vacuolar protein sorting 37A is involved in cell growth & differentiation.

This collagen is sourced from sustainably harvested cold-water marine fish & has been hydrolyzed (predigested) by endopeptidases & exopeptidases. These enzymes create small tripeptide fragments of three amino acid sequences for optimal absorption. Other collagens in the market—whether from land animals or marine sources—typically contain tripeptide content of 15–35%. MetaPWR Advantage collagen contains more than 70% tripeptide fragments for superior absorption (in some cases, up to 12 times more absorbable).

So yeah. WAY more than just collagen.

Peppermint:

This is a go-to for energy. One of the quickest ways to perk yourself up is to put 1 drop in your mouth & swallow it with some water. Yep! DoTERRA oils are one of the only oils out there that you can safely consume. You can check other brands of Peppermint, & on the back they will say “not for consumption”. But doTERRA's Peppermint is approved for internal use. And you only need 1 drop.

Peppermint + Bergamot + Lemongrass:

Apply a drop of each to back of neck, spine & bottoms of feet 3x daily. You'll LOVE this combo! Use it in the morning when you wake up, in the afternoon when you're “hitting a wall” as far as energy, & whenever else you need it.

Peppermint + Northern Escape + OnGuard:

Put 10 drops of each in a 10ml roller bottle then top with fractionated coconut oil. Shake before each use. Roll onto the chest & back of neck so you'll smell it. This combo perks you right up. Bonus - the OnGuard helps boost your immunity & the tree oils in Northern Escape help balance your mood!

Cheer + Wild Orange + Breathe:

Add 2 drops each to your diffuser & place it near where you're hanging out. This is great in the office & also where kids are doing homework. It's that perfect combo of uplifting & energizing. Plus the Breathe included in there helps you get more oxygen to your cells which equals more brain power!

Mito2Max supplement:

You'll love this daily dose of healthful energy - especially if you're looking for something to replace or decrease your caffeine consumption. Or you want to combat brain fog.

This is natural & non-habit forming. It actually works with the mitochondria of your cells "the powerhouse of the cell". Take 2 capsules 2x daily (typically morning & afternoon). Such an easy way to support your body in a healthy way.

xEO Mega supplement:

This is a much better substitute for fish oil & actually includes much more than that. Omegas are one of the main reasons people take fish oil. The fats in there will help with things like brain fog & supporting your nervous system.

I used to take a fish oil, & like most fish oils out there, I'd have fishy burps for hours after taking them. Yuck. These don't have any fish flavor.

Loved switching over to these. 

Also, if you've got an ADHD kiddo like I do, these are great for supporting their brain health.
