Hey there! Wendy Selvig (one of your Young Living upline people) here!
I have been taking the Balance and Burn (GLP-1) system for 7 days. I did not expect these kinds of results. I am a woman in my mid-fifties. I have hormone issues and definite insulin resistance. I only walked once this week and I even had a football Sunday cheat day....
I have lost 9lbs.
No kidding.
I was hoping it would work for me, but didn't expect this. So, I have been diving more into the science and am blown away that there are three major reasons this product works, not just one. Three pathways... The first has to do with your body's ability to tell the pancreas to respond to glucose. It improves insulin sensitivity. The second pathway inhibits PDE's, allowing fat cells to be opened and used for energy! The third pathway handles carbs and modulates your blood sugar, decreasing hunger and cravings. It turns on AMPK signaling which allows you to use your fat for energy instead of storing it!
If you want to know more about how this system works and WHY it works, watch this video taught by my friend Talia Scott:
https://vimeo.com/1158832307/a0f07e0370
Then grab yourself a Balance and Burn system (log in to your YL account)....
And join me in my Challeng Facebook group where I am going to post daily to teach all about this system, starting in February! Several of us are doing the system together, come join us!

One of the main ingredients in this product is Akkermansia:

Hey there! Wendy Selvig here!
I had a really fun holiday season. And by fun, I mean, we partied with a lot of food. From Thanksgiving till Christmas, we also had two family member birthdays (including my own), and we just really enjoyed ourselves. ;)
That is why I am excited to try Young Living's new GLP-1 supporting product for weight loss. Truly. Happy. I have about 6 holiday pounds to lose and about 20 more that I'd be thrilled to lose as well.

What Balance & Burn Is
Welcome to our Balance & Burn Challenge!
STARTING FEBRUARY 1ST, we’re going to walk together through Young Living’s new Balance & Burn metabolic system and what it’s designed to support in your body.
As a group, some Young Living people are going to do this together in this Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/507513271782217 - Come join us, even if it is to lurk and watch the educational posts!

Instead of focusing only on “calories in, calories out,” this system is built to support three major metabolic areas:
- Your gut microbiome
- Your fat management system
- Your glucose (blood sugar) metabolism
Balance & Burn is designed to:
- Support GLP-1 production in the gut (a key hormone that impacts appetite and healthy blood sugar metabolism)
- Support healthy fat metabolism
- Help maintain a proper balance of body fat and lean mass
- Support microbiome diversity for overall metabolic health
- Support healthy lipid and triglyceride levels already in the normal range
In this challenge, I will be posting every day or at least every OTHER day and we’re going to keep it simple and practical:
- Learn what this system is actually doing in your body
- Pair it with basic lifestyle habits (water, movement, better food choices)
- Celebrate scale and non-scale victories along the way
This is the first time we've done this challenge and it's not too late for you to join in! Grab the Balance and Burn kit from Young Living and be ready to start here with us soon!

Happy New Year!
Wow, it is 2026! Got Health Goals? Wanna support them naturally?
Here is how Young Living can help you support you.
Whether your goal is better sleep, weight loss, or better energy, a Ningxia Red Reset can help you.
Young Living sells the "Make A Shift Reset Kit", (A $233 value for $132) which is a box that holds 51 Ningxia Red 2oz singles. The singles are organized in a system and it includes instructions where you drink 6 packs a day for three days (that helps fill up your deficiencies), and then you drink 3 packs a day for the rest of the 14 day time period/Reset. Clinical trials were done on this protocol and the outcomes showed better sleep, more balanced blood sugar and better energy.
Grab a "Make A Shift Reset Kit" this month and pick 14 days that you can drink this drink to support your health goals! Join my Facebook Group to do the Ningxia Red Challenge with me and some of our members! We start on January 7th - don't do it alone, do it with us and learn all the health benefits from the slides I post during the 14 day challenge. (More details below)

And, if losing weight is one of your goals, January 10th Young Living releases their new natural GLP-1 product!
Balance & Burn is a 3-part system that offers a scientifically coordinated approach to metabolic wellness that work synergestically across multiple physiological pathways for comprehensive support. There are three formulas.
The first formula (Akkermansia) targets gut microbiome, mucin layer, and SCFA production. It feeds on the mucin layer that lines the gut. It consumes the mucin and stimulates the body to replenish and thicken the mucin layer. This improves gut integrity and increases integrity. Produces short chain fatty acids that act as metabolic messengers and diffuse across the gut lining and bind to GPCR on L-Cells. 2 receptors (GPR41 and GPR43) that trigger inner cellular cascades that leads to hormone release. Normal healthy release of GLP-1 and prepares the pancreas to respond appropriately to glucose. THis is an example of how gut microbes regulate hormones. It supports natural GLP-1 signaling via L-cell activation.
The second formula is the "burn formula." It helps the body use stored energy. It supports cAMP signaling and lipase activation for fatty acid mobilization. Includes mitochondrial support for enhanced energy conversion.
The third formula activates AMPK pathways (the body's master energy regulator), enhancing GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake. Supports carbohydrate handling and mitochondrial oxidation for sustained energy. Increases effeciency of glucose for healthy blood sugar. Key ingredients are Berberine Phytosome, R-Alpha Lipoic Acid, Gymnema Sylvestre, Chromium, and Ginger Essential oil.
Together, these formulas form an integrated metabolic support system that optimizes gut-metabolic signaling, supports fat mobilization, and enhances glucose handling. This multi-pathway approach effectively addresses complex human metabolism.
Balance & Burn Helps:
*Support GLP-1 production in the gut, which impacts healthy blood sugar metabolism
*Supports healthy fat metabolism*
*Supports healthy lipid and triglyceride levels already in the normal range*
*Maintain a proper balance of body fat and lean mass*
*Support microbiome diversity for overall metabolic health*
*These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

ALSO, Here is some amazing research on Frankincense oil!!! I better not say a word about what this article says because it would not be FDA compliant. I CAN tell a testimony though.... my sister-in-law was diagnosed with skin cancer the size of a quarter. She applied Sacred Frankincense on it daily for 6-8 weeks and it was gone at the end of that time!!!

Hello! Merry Christmas, Happy New Year!
It is that time of year again. Hopefully, you are able to take a few moments for yourself after the hustle of getting ready for the holidays.
Relaxation Exercise:
Do you have any lavender or Stress Away (or something like it) on hand? Let me encourage you to grab a bottle, put a few drops in your hands and rub them together. Then, cup your hands over your nose, close your eyes, and breathe. Give yourself 3 minutes to breathe the oil, shut out the computers and phones, and just center yourself. Release any thoughts that come to mind that don't serve you. Think about love. Loving yourself and loving others.
Your cortisol levels should go down, your nervous system should calm, and you can take that calmness into the rest of your day!
If you are using lavender, this is why it works:
Lavender’s calming effects are not just emotional or symbolic—they are rooted in its chemistry. True lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is rich in the naturally occurring constituents linalool and linalyl acetate, which have been shown to directly calm the nervous system. Linalool supports the brain’s GABA pathways, helping reduce anxious thoughts, nervous tension, and stress responses, while linalyl acetate enhances relaxation by easing muscle tension and supporting restful sleep. Together, these compounds help shift the body out of “fight-or-flight” and into a parasympathetic, restorative state. This is why true lavender is widely used for anxiety, sleep support, and emotional balance—and why not all oils labeled “lavender” produce the same deeply relaxing effect.
Lavender has so many constituents in it, that it has never been chemically mapped out completely. This is why it is called the "Swiss Army Knife" of oils. There is basically a constituent for anything you need in it. If you were to get one oil for the whole year for 2026, I would recommend Lavender. And while it is known for relaxation, it is also the main oil for "skin" support and healing. Get a cut? Put lavender on it. Sunburn? Lavender. Wrinkles? Lavender.

Young Living just announced a new Advanced Holistic Metabolic Wellness System that can help you lose weight! I just sat in on a training session about the products (and got some cheesy screen shots from my phone - below)...

ALSO, I've been wanting to tell you all about the Wanderful Diffuser... I've been in the company for 18 years and have never loved a diffuser as much as I love this one. It is Atomizing and is waterless. It is cordless and portable. You can put it in your car cup holder or bring it with you to work. The oil is dispersed in short spurts and is really concentrated. It is $55 wholesale and worth every penny! I've been wanting this bad boy for a long time and finally got it. I've been able to keep Thieves going this month to help ward off the sickies!

The last announcement I have is that we are doing a group Ningxia Red Challenge in January in the Oily Academy Health Challenge Group on Facebook. CLICK HERE to make sure you are in the group and for more details.
DETAILS:
FOR JANUARY...
I will add an optional Cleanse for those who want to add that or only do that portion.
Young Living is currently out of the Cleansing Trio and Essentialzyme, so that helped me make my decision.

Hi there! Happy November! Can you believe we are just weeks away from Christmas and New Year's? I can’t! If you don’t remember, I am your Young Living person... but hopefully more than that. I am a Certified Level 2 Aromatherapist, a Certified Aromatherapy Coach, a Natural Health Coach, a paid health researcher for a non-profit organization (for 20 years), and I have a program that certifies people in aromatherapy (and soon to be natural health coaching). I'm all in on natural health. I am all in to help you (for free!) figure out what you need to do to keep yourself out of the hospital and the doctor’s office, and living the healthiest life you can!

Today I just got off the phone with a friend who has been struggling with AML Leukemia. She was so happy... and that made me happy... and then I wanted to share it with people, so hence the email today. :)
A few months ago, she contacted me because her health had been steadily declining, and she wasn't responding to the medication she had been on. She was having to have blood transfusions weekly and was afraid of the direction her health had taken. She wanted to know if there was anything natural I knew of that might help.
I shared with her how Master Formula vitamins were designed to help your body uptake them, even if you had genetic challenges for uptaking vitamins (like MTHFR genetic abnormalities that affect 80% of people) and that ultimately vitamin deficiencies contribute to DNA breakage, and other serious long-term illnesses (according to Root Cause physicians like Dr. Dan Purser whom I have discussed this at length with).
I also suggested drinking Ningxia Red because it is rich in superoxide dismutase, the antioxidant inside mitochondria that helps keep your cells from breaking down. If you don't make SOD well, Dr. Purser told me that "you ARE the 1 out of 2 people who get "the C word". You have to supplement SOD to fight it off..."
And then I told her about the DNA-strengthening benefits of Frankincense, and how Young Living created Deep Spectra Frankincense (which is like 10x stronger than regular Frank). The scientist responsible for developing this Frankincense lost his mother and sister to "the C word", so now you know why this was developed.
Lastly, I told her about a protocol that I heard about at Young Living's convention this last Summer.... Because of the D-Limonene in orange oil, one of the scientists was asked how much orange oil you would need daily to kick different DNA damage diagnoses. She was told 10ml a day and they came up with a 30 day protocol of that. Yes, that is like 20 bottles of orange oil. At $12.75 a bottle, that is still inexpensive as a cancer treatment! The friend who was telling me this said that she had five different people with varying "c-words" who did this protocol, and on the other end of the 30 days, had come out completely reversing their situations. That was enough to perk my ears.
So.... since October, my friend has been taking 3 packs of Ningxia Red a day, 1 packet of Master Formula, 2-3 drops of Frankincense under the tongue, and for 30 days she drank 10ml of orange oils a day. I am happy to report.... Her lab reports normalized. She hasn't had to have a blood transfusion since she started the orange oil protocol last October. Her numbers normalized. She feels better than she has in years and she is rejoicing!!! So am I!!!
I love helping people find natural solutions to their health issues. I am not a doctor and don't want to be your doctor. But I have a lot of knowledge and can direct you in your own research, which you can then decide to discuss with your own doctor.
If you know of anyone who would like to know natural options for health challenges, I'm happy to consult with people for free. Send them to my email: wendyselvig@gmail.com.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, coming up in just a few days is the "Let's Not Get Sick During the Holidays" Immune System Challenge. :) (Like the name? It's so creative, I know.... ha ha.)
This is the time of year when people are passing around colds and flus. Your immune system goes down because you are no longer basking in the summer sun... This is what I usually do this time of year, so I made it into a challenge. Several people are joining in and we are just doing it together in this facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/507513271782217 -- Come join us if you'd like! It is very low stress. I will just post about these products over the 30 day challenge to educate you on how they are helping you (so good to be reminded as to why we bought them). And hopefully being a part of the group will remind you to take your supplements and encourage you as to why you are taking them. Of course, if you get your products after the 15th, feel free to join in whenever you want.

The protocol involves:
2 oz Ningxia Red daily
4 Super Vitamin D daily
Then: Whenever you think of it, diffuse Thieves oil on purpose to breathe it in. At night is always good, or at your desk at work. It sanitizes the air you are breathing and supports your immune system by killing off things you have already breathed in!
Then... Inner Defense is to have for that day when you feel the tickle in your throat, or the stomach upset that isn't normal. This is not the time to order Inner Defense, this is the time to HAVE IT ON HAND. If you get even a twinge of something come on, you start taking one in the morning, one at lunch, and one in the evening. You also put Thieves oil on your feet (the bottoms). This combats it before it has turned into a perfect storm. Dissolve the storm before it erupts.... I promise, this keeps my family healthy all year 'round!
Grab these products and join me in the Facebook group!! We officially start the 15th of November, but you can start any time you get the products.
Blessings!!
Wendy
P.S. I almost forgot to mention... Evergreen Essence essential oil is out and in limited supply. It comes out once a year and is usually around for a month or two and then gone. It is full of different evergreen oils - perfect for the holidays but also really good for your blood. (It was secretly formulated during the whole CoXXid epidemic to help the blood deal with spike pXXXiens. I only know this because I visited the tree farm and overheard a discussion) So, it benefits you to smell it - it's not just another pretty smell. Grab your yearly bottle while it lasts!
