Healthy water is so important and after hearing rumors about bad quality of Htown water we are considering ditching our Pur pitcher and installing a reverse osmosis under counter filtration.

Does anyone have experience with essential oils? Particularly the best brands and the best uses? I know about Young Living essential oils, but they seem to be expensive.

Also does anyone know the difference between essential and infused oil?
