On Guard Protective Blend – Immune Support, Green Cleaning & Energy Protection

On Guard is a staple in our home and one of the first blends I reach for when I want immune support or cleansing power—both energetically and physically. My family uses On Guard topically and in household products like toothpaste, mouthwash, and cleaner concentrate. Whether I’m looking for a natural way to support my body’s defenses or a safer alternative for home cleaning, this blend is an essential part of our routine.

One of dōTERRA’s most popular blends, On Guard combines Wild Orange, Cinnamon, Clove, Rosemary, and Eucalyptus essential oils to provide powerful immune and cleansing benefits while offering a warm, spicy, citrusy aroma. It’s a great choice for natural surface cleaning, freshening the air, and creating an uplifting environment.

Energetically, On Guard helps create a strong protective field around the body, clearing away negative attachments and reinforcing healthy energetic boundaries. It supports resilience, strength, and a sense of security, making it a powerful ally in both physical and energetic wellness.

• On Guard + Tea Tree + Frankincense + Lemon + Oregano oils added to a roller bottle and topped with carrier oil to create an Immune Bomb blend. Use this blend when you need a little extra immune support.
• On Guard Cleaner Concentrate + Peppermint oil added to a spray bottle with water and used as a surface cleaner. Awesome cleansing power and invigorating scent!

• On Guard Toothpaste - a natural, fluoride-free, whitening toothpaste without SLS and other harmful ingredients common in conventional toothpaste. This toothpaste is AWESOME and leave your mouth feeling “just visited the dentist clean.” My gums are so much healthier since using this toothpaste!
  
  
• On Guard Mouthwash - a delicious and alcohol-free mouthwash formulated to clean teeth and gums, reduce plaque, and promote a healthy looking mouth when used with regular brushing and flossing. We love this mouthwash and even my son takes it diluted with water to half strength. 
  
  
• On Guard Cleaner Concentrate - a great multi-purpose cleaner for sinks, counters, toilets, and other surfaces. Great as a spot cleaner for laundry stains too. One bottle of cleaner concentrate makes up 12 full sized spray bottles, making this a very economical purchase.
