SPARTA, or Specialized Plant Aromatherapy Reports on Truth in Advertising, launched today in response to unsafe essential oil use information.
The SPARTA campaign is a grassroots efforts formed by Lee Tea, a folk herbalist and marketing specialist from Erie, PA. It is a voluntary group of concerned citizens ranging from certified practitioners to personal essential oil users. By working in direct contact with lead compliance officers at the US Food and Drug Administration, SPARTA aims to reduce the amount of essential oil-related injuries reported annually by American Poison Control Centers by reducing the amount of unsafe essential oil use information being distributed via essential oil sales companies.
SPARTA also educates the public on what to be aware of at essential oil home sales parties, and on safer ways to use essential oils.
