The Sourcing of
doTERRA Ginger Essential Oil is very special and it part of the Co-Impact Sourcing® model.
doTERRA's commitment to purity and potency begins with its meticulous sourcing process and begins in the soil in Madagascar. The ginger root, harvested at the peak of its potency, undergoes a careful distillation process to extract the essential oil, ensuring that its vibrant, energizing aroma and beneficial properties are preserved. This process is part of doTERRA's CPTG Certified Pure Tested Grade® quality protocol, which guarantees that each bottle of ginger essential oil is free of impurities and fillers.
Ginger is planted in spring and harvested in fall or winter when it’s mature. The essential oil is steam-distilled from the rhizome of the plant. It takes between one to two pounds of ginger rhizome to make a 15 mL bottle of essential oil. The Ginger essential oil is truly unique. Many other companies distill theirs from fully dried rhizomes, while doTERRA distills its essential oil from fresh rhizomes shortly after harvest, which results in better chemical and aromatic profiles.
doTERRA's ginger essential oil is more than just a spice; it's a versatile ally in your wellness journey for you and your pet. From its ethical sourcing to its myriad of uses, this essential oil is a must-have in your natural health toolkit.
