The best scenario is to swim in ozone or salt water pools.  However, most people can’t choose what their health clubs use in their pools.  Try to talk with the management anyway.  The more people who bring up these concerns the better.  There are many problems that chlorine exposure can cause.  Rashes, breathing issues etc… 

Chlorine competes for the iodine receptors in organs like the thymus, thus depriving them of this necessary element.

To combat effects of iodine replacement in the thymus: dōTERRA^®‘s GX Assist^® .  This is a proprietary combination of Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade® essential oils and caprylic acid, that help support a healthy digestive tract by creating an unfriendly environment for potentially harmful pathogens that can disrupt digestive immunities and cause digestive upset.  GX Assist is formulated with therapeutic-grade Oregano, Melaleuca, Lemon, Lemongrass, Peppermint and Thyme essentials oils that have been demonstrated to have in-vitro antimicrobial properties.  GX Assist also includes caprylic acid that has been traditionally used as for its specific health-supporting properties in the gut.

To repopulate the “good” flora removed by the GX Assist – dōTerra PB Assist+ Probiotic Defense Formula is a proprietary blend of pre-biotic fiber and six strains of probiotic microorganisms in a unique double-layer vegetable capsule delivering 5 billion CFUs of active probiotic cultures and soluble pre-biotic FOS (fructo-oligosaccharides) that encourages culture adhesion and growth. The time-release double-capsule delivery system protects sensitive probiotic cultures from stomach acid. PB Assist+ supports healthy digestive functions and immunities and is safe for use by all members of your family.

And to provide an added “boost” to everything being used – doTERRA’s EO Mega is a unique formula of CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade® essential oils Clove, Frankincense, Thyme, cumin, Wild Orange, Peppermint, Ginger, and German Chamomile, and a proprietary blend of marine and land- sourced omega fatty acids from flaxseed, pomegranate seed, evening primRose, cranberry seed, and concentrated fish oils. Omega fatty acids have been shown to support healthy joint function and brain health.

A daily dose of EO Mega provides 1 gram of marine oils, 1 gram of land oils, and 60 mg of the EO Mega essential oil blend. It uses only clean and pure sources of concentrated fish oils and is enteric coated to prevent the fishy return of inferior omega fatty acid products.

To remove heavy metal contaminates that can be caused by spending long times in a pool:  8 drops of dōTERRA Cilantro oil in a capsule once a day.

For hypothalamus issues: dōTERRA’s Lemongrass oil.  This oil, along with dōTERRA’s Balance, Frankincense, Geranium applied to the throat has shown to be effective.

Our mission as a company is to teach people to live more healthy, productive lives and to share with others the blessing of a lifetime of wellness.

Eating Right

Eating right is a matter of quality and quantity. Our diets should be rich in foods with an abundance of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. A healthy diet also includes low-fat sources of protein, moderate amounts of complex carbohydrates, and limited fats. Eating right means choosing fresh, whole, unprocessed foods and avoiding foods that are over processed and contain high levels of simple sugars and saturated fats. The dōTERRA philosophy of eating right also includes the daily consumption of dietary supplements to ensure optimal levels of key nutrients that are essential for longevity and wellness.

Exercising

Regular, moderate exercise is essential for optimal physical and emotional wellness. Coupled with eating right, regular exercise can help one maintain healthy body weight and composition. Healthy activity begins with taking the stairs, walking to lunch, and generally having a “mentality of movement.” A more complete exercise program includes aerobic activity, flexibility exercise, and strength training.

Rest and Manage Stress

Living healthy includes appropriate time for rest and relaxation. Regular sleep is an often skipped, but essential practice for optimal health. Managing stress is also important to maintaining good health. When we do not allow our bodies appropriate time for rest and regeneration, we can compromise our immune defenses and may become more prone to infection and disease. Chronic stress remains a significant health threat and has been tied to numerous degenerative conditions.

Reduce Toxic Load

In spite of our best efforts to practice good wellness habits, we can be exposed to toxic environmental stressors that can have deleterious effects on our health. Common toxic stressors include overexposure to UV rays, toxic ingredients in products throughout our homes, and chemical pollutants in our air and water. Being aware of these toxic threats to our health and choosing products that provide protection and peace of mind from such toxins are also important to optimal wellness.

Informed Self Care

When we experience sub-optimal heath conditions, there are many self-care alternatives that can provide safe and effective relief of symptoms and long-term solutions to problems. Reaching for a prescription or over-the-counter drug may not always be the best first alternative to taking care of one’s self when sick. dōTERRA’s therapeutic-grade essential oils and other wellness products are formulated to support the body’s own natural ability to keep itself healthy and can be used effectively in combination with traditional and alternative medical practices. (dōTERRA’s wellness products have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.)

Proactive Medical Care

When a person is suffering from acute sickness or has been diagnosed with a disease, it is important they seek out competent and qualified medical professionals for immediate help. It is also important they take a proactive role in their personal course of treatment by learning as much as they can about their health challenge and choosing a physician who will both inform and be open to information.

Following these healthy practices of eating right, exercising, resting and managing stress, reducing toxic load, practicing informed self care, and taking a proactive role in one’s medical care, coupled with the regular use of dōTERRA’s essential wellness products will help one live a healthier, longer life.
