This blend was created from research about a group of 15th century thieves and grave robbers who rubbed oils on themselves to avoid contracting the plague while they robbed the bodies of the dead and dying. When apprehended these thieves disclosed the formula of herbs, spices and oils they used to protect themselves in exchange for more lenient punishment.
This blend of therapeutic-grade essential oils was tested at Weber State University for its potent antimicrobial properties. Thieves oil was found to have a 99.96% percent kill rate against airborne bacteria. The oils are highly antiviral, antiseptic, antibacterial, anti-infectious and help to protect the body against such illnesses as flu, colds, sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, sore throats, cuts etc.
Apply few drops to bottom of feet or stomach and rub into skin.
Here is the receipt for the mixture place into a small brown bottle and add the amounts of herbs listed below
* Clove oil (syzgium aromaticum) 200 drops or ½ ounce.
* Lemon oil (Citrus limon) 175 drops
* Cinnamon Bark oil (Cinnamoomum verum) 100 drops
* Eucalyptus oil ( Eucalyptus radiata) 75 drops
* Rosemary oil (Rosimarinus officinalis ) 50 drops
You can also use in small spray bottle and mist the air in home and car, I also place mixture in a pan of water and place on wood stove during the fall, winter and spring.
Mountain Rose Herbs (Oregon) has wild crafted herbs and oil. I have their catalog. They are NOT over-priced!

Found this through Pastor Strawcutter
This product is an exact recipe for Thieves oil listed below.
It is way cheaper at this site than anywhere else I've found.

Someone on another forum said they used thieves oil to get rid of skin tags.
Hey hey! I've got one of those thingys I keep shaving off under my arm. Ima havta try that! Thanks Poodlicious! :)
Let me know if it works then I'll buy some : )
Have you ever extracted our own oils?
Sunflower seeds give a good, versatile oil. The "waste" product is a good feed for chickens. We want to get enough land to grow the sunflowers, and that makes a pretty nice "circle of life."
Somewhere in Kenya, a village is missing it's idiot. Here in America, they are all present and registered to vote.
I'm so glad you're here :)
No I've never extracted a thing. I am so in trouble when it comes time for "Little House on the Prairie"...ooof.
God help us all.
That's all I have to say at this point.
LIVE and let live.
Aw Coug
Sorry if this was a downer. :(
I don't care for it so much myself. But I'm willing to use the stuff though :)
I mean, you put it on your feet, that could only help the boy's shoes I'll tell ya ;)
We Will All Be Fine Cougar...
be of good cheer. We are all way ahead of the average person. The only thing I haven't stocked up on is tobacco and tp.Thats next.I have enough fuel to cook my supplies for at least a year so I feel ahead of the game.I even bought more food today.I think we will all come out of whatever comes our way fine. We all have good survival skills and quick wits. We can barter and trade with people to acquire the things we lack...
It's the others I feel sorry for, I try to warn them but they don't get it even family.I was actually criticized by my cousin for "food hording" and being part of the problem back when rice was going crazy. I figure I have enough for 2-3 people for 1 year at this point and more if I supplement with the local deer before they all get poached (they bed down 15-25 feet away from my front door). I can take 2-3 and dehydrate/smoke and seal a meal then freeze. I'm good.
Time?
I thought the ingredients have to sit for a extended time, one year rings a bell, but I am no expert, just interested. We have all the ingredients at home and I was going to mix up a batch until I came up with the curring time.
Any one here mix up four thieves yet?
Yes, mountain rose herbs rocks, been buying from them for a few years now. Debbie likes to call in and place orders, the owner is real nice debbie and her talk for along time, I think they are awake or on the wakeup list in the near future.
Orabox Hello. Have we met?
Howdy!
I asked around and the general consensus seems to be "no cure time". No back-up data, just surmising the "thieves" would not have forethought a year ahead to save themselves from the plague. I dunno.
A friend sent this: Good place to check is Hulda Clark's book. I know that Clove oil kills parasites and is in one of her products for killing parasites. Check out The Cure for All Diseases and see what she had to say.
Funny, Googled "Hulda Clark"
sixth from the top was a link from quackwatch warning about Clark, I remember a day when I would be weary of him for that reason, now I guess it means nothing, I have no trust in the watchdogs of the world. I will have a look for sure. After a quick query on the net I see thee is only one recipe I see that has a cure time.

What really sucks is that their are so many opinions on what is the best, who do you listen to? I guess I could spend some time looking at all the recipes and come to a consensus on my own, wheew, way to much brain work.
Have you used four thieves in the past SCButterfly?
Btw the SCButterfly screenname seems familiar, prolly on the same boards in the past.
No I've not used it but plan to
This is a different recipe...it appears they are using bulk herbs from the git-go and not the oils. This may be the confusion in "curing" times.....dry herb vs oil. The oils are already diffused but in the case of the dry herbs, they take time to leach into the solution??? Sounds plausible. Thomas might could answer this as he has made up some tinctures using herbs. Thomas? Chime in any time. :)
My Mom is a natural health freak going way, way back -- Adele Davis back is what I'm talking about. I consult her about alternative medicine...she hasn't been wrong yet ;)
