Gary Young was a truth seeker, and he followed the path that led him to truth. He was not one to write about someone else’s adventures. He had to know and see for himself. He wrote about his own experiences, research, and findings. No other company has the history of research and development of essential oils in the areas of production, usage, research, and education as D. Gary Young and his company, Young Living Essential Oils.

This very sophisticated laboratory was built abovve the distillery in 2010, making it possible to have instant analysis during and after distilling.
Dr. Casabianca came to Utah to instruct Gary and Sue, biochemist, on the new GC in the Payson office in 1996.
