Does the antibiotic effect of CS become negated by essential oils? If 
peppermint toothpaste can have a negative combination with CS, wouldn't the 
phenols in essential oils hurt the effects of CS??
Thanks,
Janet

    Oregano essential oil is a powerful anti-infectious agent (for respiratory, 
intestines, genital, nerves, blood, and lymphatics) with large-spectrum action 
against bacteria, mycobacteria, fungus, virus, and parasites.  It's a general 
tonic and immune simulant.

    The owner of Young Living Essential Oils has recently advised the following 
 four E.O.'s in case of anthrax threat:

    Melissa (Melissa Officinalis) - 
    Thyme - (Thymus Vulgaris) - 
    Thieves - contains:  Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus, Rosemary
    Lemon - (Citrus Limon) - Lemon has antiseptic-like properties and contains 
compounds that have been studied for their effects on immune function.  
According to Jean Valnet, M.D., the vaporized essence of lemon can kill 
miningococcus bacteria in 15 minutes, typhoid bactilli in one hor, 
staphylococcus aureus in two hours, and peumonoccus bacteria within three 
hours.  Even a 0.2% solution of lemon oil can kill diphtheria bacteria in 20 
minutes.  Lemon oil has been widely used in skin care to cleanse skin and 
reduce wrinkles.

    Thieves is a YLEO exclusive blend.  Since you wouldn't necessarily know 
when/if anthrax spores were distributed near you, many people are keeping the 
above and/or similar essential oils dispersed throughout their homes and/or 
work environments on a daily basis (say an hour or so each day).  In the event 
that you were subjected to anthrax, it's possible the daily inhalation of these 
essential oils could help keep you protected.  

    They further suggest placing a few drops on your air filter mask as 
protection from inhalation of spores.  Which possibly placing CS directly on an 
air filter mask could do the same thing?
