My husband is a chemist confirmed Ryan's right about the definition of "naturally essenced" products.

Loved this podcast! Although I found the minimal one quite repetitive, I comprehend that you have a new audience that has "new" questions for them that may seem "repetitive" for myself. On Ryan's question, I actually had a couple of "oh shit" moments with the opposite. I got myself my first TV on December with the purpose of sharing and I have barely being able to. I do have an "oh shit" situation that I had to get rid of something: The gym! Although it's different. I have struggled to continue working out without a place to go
