NingXia Red do not take for a long time
NingXia Red is named after Wolfberry outsourced from NingXia province in China. It grows there plenty and not so expensive. It contains other berry juices and other fruit juices. And their claims are not evaluated by any regulatory authority. Also 6 to 7 essential oils are added to it. Now regarding essential oils, Young living essentials oils are very expensive because there overhead cost is high and profit margin is very high more than 200%. There are equally and some even better 100% pure organic essential oils supplier in U.S.A. , U.K., Thialand and other countries and their essential oils are half the price or even less the Young living essential oils. Young living systematically brainwashing consumers in believing consumers about the magical benefits of their oils and as they say "if a lie repeated by 100 persons, people believe it". Ask any professional or go to any other web sites of reputed supplier of 100% pure organic essential oils, first thing they will advise you is do not use neat - always dilute - recommendation 1.5% to 2% oil for message and 5% concentration and (under certain circumstances 10%). for tropical application and they warn and also knowledgeable people, do not take internally unless prescribed by professional. These essential oils are very complicated mixture of natural biochemicals so your body is also. Once you take essential oils internally for a long time, THE BIOCHEMICAL FUNCTIONS OF YOUR BODY GETS DEPENDENT ON IT. If you stop taking, your body's function will miss it and get crippled. Now you go to Young living web site. They ask you to apply neat and ask you to take neat in a capsule 3 or 4 types a day. This may help your body or may not but your body's biological function is getting dependent on it and the consumption of their oil will increase. They are systematically brainwashing consumers and looting them
Now Ningxia Red contains 5 to 6 essential oils- so you know what will happen if you take for a long time. Better take fresh juices of all the berry's and fruits and drink it. Mix other vitamins or other ingredients(consult your doctor or pharmacist)if you wish. You save money as well as improve your health. Of course there would not be psychological benefits of repeated good, good, excellent , marvelous, magical hype repeated by producer and their distributors.
You should always consult medical professional if you ever want to consume essential oils internally for what so ever reason for a long time. My advice "trust Young Living with respect to everything but your money and health"
