What is FOGMO?
FOGMO is an acronym representing a blend of four essential oils:
Frankincense: Known for its anti-inflammatory and immune-supporting properties.
On Guard: A proprietary blend from doTERRA that includes wild orange, clove, cinnamon, eucalyptus, and rosemary oils, recognized for its cleansing and immune-boosting effects.
Melaleuca (Tea Tree Oil): Widely used for its antimicrobial and antifungal benefits.
Oregano: A potent oil with strong antibacterial and antiviral qualities.
Together, these oils create a blend that supports the body’s natural defenses and helps reduce the severity and duration of common illnesses, including sinus infections.
How FOGMO Supports Illness Prevention and Sinus Relief
Each oil in FOGMO contributes unique benefits:
Frankincense helps reduce inflammation in the respiratory tract, which can ease sinus pressure and discomfort.
On Guard acts as a natural disinfectant, helping to fight off pathogens that cause colds and flu.
Melaleuca targets bacteria and fungi that may contribute to sinus infections.
Oregano is known for its ability to combat viruses and bacteria, making it a strong ally during illness.
By combining these oils, FOGMO offers a broad spectrum of support that can help prevent illness and relieve sinus symptoms naturally.
Using FOGMO in a Capsule
One of the safest and most effective ways to use FOGMO is by taking it internally in a capsule. This method allows the oils to work from the inside out, supporting your immune system and respiratory health.
How to Prepare FOGMO Capsules
You will need:
Frankincense essential oil
On Guard essential oil blend
Melaleuca essential oil
Oregano essential oil
Empty gelatin or vegetarian capsules (size 0 or 00)
Recipe for one capsule:
1 drop Frankincense
2 drop On Guard
3 drop Melaleuca
3 drop Oregano
Instructions:
Place one drop of each essential oil into the empty capsule using the dropper.
Seal the capsule carefully.
Use capsules immediately, otherwise they will melt.
Dosage and Frequency
Based on common practice and user experience, take one FOGMO capsule three times a day, spaced about 4 hours apart. This schedule helps maintain consistent levels of the oils in your system.
Duration of Use
It is generally recommended to take FOGMO capsules for up to one week during times of illness or increased exposure to pathogens. If symptoms persist beyond this period, consult a healthcare professional.
Safety Considerations
While essential oils offer many benefits, they must be used with care, especially when taken internally.
Use only high-quality, pure essential oils designed for internal use, such as those from doTERRA.
If you are pregnant, nursing, have a medical condition, or take medications, consult your healthcare provider before using FOGMO capsules.
Discontinue use if you experience any adverse reactions such as stomach upset or allergic symptoms.
Keep essential oils and capsules out of reach of children.
Additional Ways to Use FOGMO
Besides capsules, FOGMO oils can be used in other ways to support health:
Diffusion: Add a few drops of the blend to a diffuser to purify the air and support respiratory health.
Topical application: Dilute with a carrier oil and apply to the chest or sinuses to relieve congestion.
Steam inhalation: Add a drop or two to hot water and inhale the steam to open nasal passages.
These methods complement capsule use and provide flexible options depending on your needs.
Real-Life Example
Many people have used FOGMO capsules for sinus or cold relief. Within one to three days they usually have sinus pressure decrease significantly, or cold symptoms improved faster than usual.
