Young Living is a Lehi, Utah based company which uses multi-level marketing to sell essential oils and other related products. The company was founded in 1993 by Donald Gary Young. ==Company info== Young Living is a multi-level marketing company; i.e. the company recruits "thousands of independent distributors who can sell directly to customers and earn commissions on sales to distributors recruited into a hierarchical network called 'downlines'."〔 In August 2013, Young Living filed suit against doTerra for theft of trade secrets, alleging that the company had recreated their production process illegally. Chemist Robert Pappas has said the oils, which were tested by the Centre national de la recherche scientifique, did not apparently match any oils sold by doTerra. Additionally, Pappas has given a court deposition saying that Young Living utilized synthetic chemicals in some of their organic products. In September 2014, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned Young Living against marketing its products as possible treatments or cures for Ebola. On September 22, 2014, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned Young Living that many of their Essential Oil products, such as, but not limited to, "Thieves," "Cinnamon Bark," "Oregano," "ImmuPower," "Rosemary," "Myrtle," "Sandalwood," "Eucalyptus Blue," "Peppermint," "Ylang Ylang," "Frankincense," and "Orange," are promoted for conditions that cause them to be drugs under section 201(g)(1)(B) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) (U.S.C. § 321(g)(1)(B) ), because they are intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Young Living」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
