.R.C. stands for “Respiratory Congestion”. R.C. is the first Young Living oil blend I used in my family. I had been using health store brands for almost 12 years with less than significant results. Since using this blend I have converted all my essential oils to Young Living because I have seen they produce consistent results.
R.C is a powerful blend of oils designed to support the respiratory system. It contains Eucalyptus globulus, Eucalyptus radiata, Eucalyptus citriodora, myrtle, pine, spruce, marjoram, lavender, cypress and peppermint.
Dilute R.C. 1 part EO to 1 part vegetable oil (V-6) and apply to chest, throat, sinus area or Vita-Flex points. Soothing when diffused or inhaled. For inhalation, place 1-2 drops in a bowl of warm (not boiling) water. Also effective when used in the Raindrop Technique. Alternating R.C. with Raven and Thieves can enhance the effects of the essential oils. Apply the oils at the first sign of cold or congestion.
Thanks for giving our family RC a year ago. We have used it and enjoyed the results. We’ve noticed this especially for our son, Marcos. When he gets a cold it tends to move to his chest. I used the RC on his feet and tried it on his chest. Even on his feet, it worked really well. On his chest, I discovered that I needed to dilute the RC because it was a bit strong for him. For me, as an adult with medium skin tone, I am fine with putting a small amount on my chest.
RC has helped to curb some of Marcos’ infections. You are right about applying it on as soon as you see the symptoms begin. We noticed if we waited too long to use the RC, his cold can settle into an infection that then needs an antibiotic. Thanks again for the information, the RC, and for introducing us to Young Living and their products. We appreciate you and all of your love and support.
