Collaboration Between the Leader of the Essential Oils Movement and the Most Recognized Non-GMO Seal Boosts Non-GMO Dietary Essential Oil Availability

Lehi, UT – January 28, 2019 – Young Living Essential Oils , the world leader in essential oils, announced today that its Vitality™ dietary essential oils line has been Non-GMO Project verified in the United States and Canada. The four distinct categories of Vitality products – Herb, Spice, Citrus, and Supplement – will now bear the Non‐GMO Project Verified seal after receiving a comprehensive third-party verification. This process can take as long as six months for a single product and includes traceability, segregation, and meaningful ongoing testing of high-GMO risk ingredients. “Consumers are increasingly concerned with what is in their food, and Young Living believes that transparency is key when providing consumable goods to the public,” said Jared Turner, President and Chief Operating Officer, Young Living Essential Oils. “Young Living continues to make a great effort to offer our customers the highest quality of oil-infused products through our strict Seed to Seal® process, and we proudly fulfill that promise with third-party validation of our Vitality dietary essential oils line under the industry’s best practices for GMO avoidance.” Young Living’s Vitality dietary essential oils are perfect for adding flavor to foods or using as dietary supplements. Young Living makes it easy to discover new and diverse flavors with its Vitality Culinary Kit, which offers six of the most-popular Vitality oils to start infusing into recipes at home. The kit also offers a collection of Young Living-branded kitchen utensils and the Vitality Culinary Cookbook, featuring recipes such as Thai-style lettuce wraps, cheesy sweet potato bites, and blueberry-lavender ice cream. Young Living has been verified by SCS Global Services under the Non-GMO Project Verified standard.
