ANTI-OXIDANT BLEND 30ML

ANTI-OXIDANT BLEND 30ML

Ingestible

Adults: 1 capsule, daily, with a meal.

Children between 4-12: Apply 3 drops at night before bed, underneath the feet, daily.

Children between 13-18: Apply 3 drops at night before bed, underneath the feet, and drink half a capsule, daily.

Topical Application: apply to the skin for antioxidant protection and skin health benefits. Do a patch test before using it on the skin to check for sensitivities.

IMPORTANT TO KNOW

All our blends come in a 30ml glass bottle, with a glass pipette and a rubber bulb on top. Don’t forget to buy empty veggie capsules when purchasing an ingestible blend. (Our veggie capsules are now available in 90’s and 150’s).

Never pre-fill capsules for future use, as this will compromise the veggie capsule and melt. Instead, always fill the capsules just before drinking them. (But if there is no other option, only prepare up to 3 days’ supply. You MUST then keep them upright in the refrigerator in a marked container; to know which blend it is filled with.)

Method – open the veggie capsule, then open your blend, squeeze, and release the rubber bulb to draw the oil blend up into the glass pipette dropper. Gently squeeze the rubber bulb to fill the larger part of the open capsule. Close the capsule before drinking it. Dosage is always a full capsule of a specific blend (between 15 to 18 drops) unless otherwise indicated.

If you need to take more than one oil blend per day, spread them throughout the day to assist the body with proper absorption. Never drink more than two capsules of different blends at a time.

It is always good to have a very small snack/fruit before drinking capsules.
