For years, people have complained that it is too difficult to keep track of the many supplements from Young Living. When selecting a supplement, do you struggle to: • Choose the right supplement for your needs? • Know if a supplement interacts with your medicines? • Decide how much of each supplement to take? • Learn potential side effects that you should be aware of? This document makes it quick and easy to learn what each supplement is for, decide how to take it, know the side effects to look out for, and if there are some people that should not use a certain supplement. This guide is not an end-all, be-all. It is not meant to answer every question you may have about supplements. It will get you started, armed with basic knowledge of every Young Living supplement. If you want much more in-depth information, join The Club for answers to the toughest questions. Be healthy and happy! Lindsey 3 Product What’s it for?
