Most of the ones used in recipes are strait "from the vine". Again, just be sure to use a trusted source, like DoTerra or YoungLiving or Melaleuca. I know that DoTerra marks their bottles very clearly on which ones can and cannot be digested.

We use a guide to Essential Oils book that DoTerra supports, and there are quite a few recipe books for Essential Oils. Usually it's only with the plant type oils.

I'm not sold on every Essential Oil, and how they say it works with certain things, but so far we've been happy. Just be sure to use a trusted source when using them. The nice thing about most of them is that they are natural.
