Lauren opened the episode by explaining why seasonal transitions can cause extra bodily stress. Changes in weather, schedules, and indoor exposure all influence how you feel and how your immune system functions.
“We go from summer freedom to early alarms, packed schedules, and shared indoor air,” Lauren said. “Our bodies notice that shift.”
That’s why now is the perfect time to lean into tools that are simple, effective, and easy to share, like doTERRA On Guard.
Jared said he kicks off his day by brushing with a combination of doTERRA On Guard and doTERRA SuperMint® Toothpastes. That’s just one way to begin a daily routine with doTERRA On Guard.
The line also includes a mouthwash made without alcohol so you get a refreshing experience without disrupting the natural microbiome in your mouth.
These everyday products are easy to use and don’t require extra steps, which is exactly the point!
One of the most mentioned products in the episode was doTERRA On Guard Sanitizing Mist. Lauren said she keeps one clipped to her keys and stashes extras in the car. Her teenage kids even use it to freshen the air when riding together. “It’s great for hands and for sibling car rides,” she laughed.
doTERRA On Guard Sanitizing Hand Wipes offer another portable option. Both are perfect for on-the-go families and quick cleanups.
Lozenges and chewables were described as both effective and surprisingly fun. In Lauren’s home, doTERRA On Guard Protecting Throat Drops disappear faster than candy! She also praised doTERRA On Guard+™ Chewable Tablets for their blend of essential oils, vitamins C and D, and other functional ingredients that support immune health year-round.
“These are easy to take, and my kids actually like them,” she said.
Lauren described doTERRA On Guard+ Softgels as her go-to during high-stress periods like travel or when she needs more focused support. The softgels include doTERRA On Guard Protective Blend, plus Black Pepper and Melissa—two essential oils known for their powerful properties.
“This is my nonnegotiable when I’m traveling or when life gets especially busy,” she shared.
Rather than adding more synthetics to your routine, Jared and Lauren suggested making easy swaps. You could switch your regular household cleaners, laundry products, or hand soaps for doTERRA On Guard alternatives that combine effective cleaning power with the benefits of essential oils.
doTERRA On Guard is one of the most well-known and widely used essential oil collections for a reason. It’s more than just an essential oil blend. It’s a line of products designed to make immune support feel natural, easy, and empowering.
As Lauren said, “You’re not sanitizing your world out of fear. You’re supporting your body with tools that work in a way that fits your life.”
