| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Dutera podcast. I'm Dr. Nicole Stevens, vice president of clinical research. |
| 0:07.9 | I tell you, it is gorgeous outside. We're stepping into those cooler months. The kids are going back to |
| 0:12.6 | school. Our bodies and our families are going to be facing new immune challenges. |
| 0:18.2 | That's why today we're taking a close look at one of Dutera's most |
| 0:21.9 | trusted tools, the on-guard protective blend. I'm so excited about this. This is one of my favorites. |
| 0:28.6 | For many of us, this is one of the first essential oil blends we experience. So today we're going |
| 0:34.1 | to explore the research, the chemistry, and some of those practical applications |
| 0:39.0 | that really make this oil a cornerstone of natural immune support. |
| 0:43.7 | So let's start with the big picture. |
| 0:46.0 | We are constantly exposed to environmental threats, public surfaces, shared air spaces, |

| 1:55.7 | Xenalanicum, one of my favorites. This brings cinemaldehyde. It's shown in studies to help create an environment |
| 2:02.3 | that's unfavorable to those environmental threats. Wild orange. Oh, who doesn't love this one? |
| 2:09.2 | This is citrus synensis. It offers delimine and eucalyptus and rosemary. We love these two, right? |
