BEST ESSENTIAL OILS FOR THYROID HEALTH

SCOTT A JOHNSON

In this podcast episode I’m talking with essential oil and natural solutions expert, Scott A Johnson all about essential oils for thyroid health. Here’s what we cover.

Intro to essential oils and natural solutions for thyroid health

  • What got Scott into natural health and essential oils
  • Can you manage your thyroid health naturally (ie without medication)?
  • What does ‘natural solutions’ really mean? [hint: lifestyle + plant medicine]
  • Can you substitute medication with ‘x’ natural solution?
  • What is the difference between a natural approach and a more traditional allopathic approach? Can you do both?

Essential oil basics

  •  What are essential oils, how to use them.

Essential oils to support thyroid function

    • myrtle
    • nutmeg
    • myrhh
    • watch this space for Black Cumin Seed essential oil – research is strong but not really commercially available yet.

Essential oils to help balance immune cells and inflammation

    • Cedarwood
    • German Chamomile
    • Copaiba
    • Lavender
    • Frankincense

Essental oils for thyroid-disrupted sleep – diffused

    • Lavender
    • Vetiver
    • A citrus + a wood essential oil.

Essential oils for aches and physical discomfort

Applied topically with a carrier oil:

    • Wintergreen
    • Peppermint
    • Rosemary
    • Frankincense
    • Copaiba
    • Ginger
    • Lavender
    • Marjoram
    • Basil
    • Black Pepper
    • Use in a 5-25% dilution with carrier oil – sweet spot about 15%.

Essential oils for hypothyroid fatigue.

There was a study that had people inhaling a blend of peppermint, black pepper, clove and bergamot. They started noticing a difference after 2 weeks – so don’t give up after trying something once.

Essential oils for Autoimmune support

A drop under the tongue 1-2x a day. *May* reduce antibodies.

    • Frankincense
    • Copaiba

Best Essential oils for thyroid health: Scott’s Top 5 to start with.

      • Frankincense

      • Lavender
      • Peppermint
      • Choose your own citrus eg lemon, orange, lime.

PLUS

  • How to best use an essential oil roller on the thyroid (& how not too). Best to use about a 5% dilution in a carrier oil. Be gentle, they are potent.
  • Have a good reference book (Scott has a few general essential oil reference books + his new book on autoimmune thyroid health – see below is incredibly detailed with protocols and research).
  • What other natural solutions should be in your toolkit? – a discussion of diet, lifestyle, supplementation.
  • If you want to try a natural approach – how long should you give it?
