This just won an Emmy Award!! Outstanding Consumer Business or Economic Reporting

This reporter is so incredible - she maintains her dignity and follows local customs simultaneously, she speaks multiple languages, and she interviews each and every person with respect. I really like her.

The reporters deserve awards for their bravery in getting real stories.

There is no way I’d ever keep my composure in that interview with Hassan. You are an amazing journalist, and have the bravery it takes to be one that uncovers injustice like this. Doterra should be ashamed of what they are a part of.

I won't lie, this just made me shed a tear and made me angry as to how international suppliers of refined products would shy away from all the injustice they do to the poor countries and start braging of how they have helped them build schools and hospitals. It's injustice.

Everything about the "wellness" industry is controversial. From these farmers, to the multi-level marketing scams, to the wholesale fraud about any medical claims. The whole thing is a scam.

She is doing amazing journalism. She doesn't give up. I couldn't imagine getting asked to do a report on something as simple as essential oils and going so deep into it.

Another amazing piece of journalism by Hind Hassan! Her and Isobel Yeung are literally on another level with the things they do and the bravery they show time and time again. Mad props and respect!

I did supply chain management for a nutraceutical company. We sourced approximately 65 percent of our input materials offshore. As long as it met quality standards, we were always in the hunt for cost savings with no questions asked. I use to question some of the labor and environmental practices of our suppliers, but quickly learned that senior management has little interest in those issues. I laughed to myself when our marketing team rolled out a campaign about being "environmentally sensitive " and "socially conscious" because we reduced our packaging use by 10 percent. The wellness industry is a scam-they use carefully crafted language to make certain they don't make claims of any curative nature, there is minimal federal oversight, case studies for efficacy are funded by the industry, written by universities that are looking for a few thousand bucks. Fun fact: if an input material is literally one day from expiration, companies will mix it into the parent formula and viola! that input material gets a new Birthday...and expires in 2 years with the parent formula. The true hypocrisy of the industry is as illuminated here-third world workers receive a pittance so the average Starbucks drinking, yoga pants wearing, Tesla driving, entitled consumer can feel good about "taking good care of themselves"

"Lets tell them we built a boarding school in a remote community, nobody will actually check"

That’s one of the most guilty men I’ve ever scene on camera. 😂

That man is not a good person. You can see it in his eyes… She’s so brave. She has my respect. 💗✨👏🏾

This is really an amazing piece of journalism. I’m so sorry for all the victims, farmers, professor who got assaulted - everything about this story is absolutely terrifying. I’m full of respect for the journalist who went into this land and presented the story to the world. Especially as a young woman, it is amazing and truly inspiring to see this kind of work.

It was not easy for me to go public in this way about being raped. However, if silent then abuse continues. Frankincense trees are sacred and the communities that harvest and sort the precious resins should be treated with respect and dignity.

Thank you for this great information, living in Australia, we just never knew the story behind all these lies companies feed us. I wish to see more of these types of exposure in large companies.

Quality journalism and videography. Vice really hit this one out of the park. Tragic but enlightening. Blown away 🙏

At a time when people complain about fake news and struggle to discern what is real and what is not, I deeply appreciate the risks journalists take and the passion they put into their reporting. Journalists (and everyone that supports them) truly are, like Sagan said about science, a candle in the dark.

That feeling when you plan on just watching 5minutes but end up thoroughly enjoying all

Wow. Thank you for this story and I hope it reaching millions and makes a huge impact. I’ve never bought an essential oil and I’ll definitely stay away! Much love and many Blessings 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

What an eye-opening documentary, great journalism. Thank you. I copied the video link and posted it on the essential oil agency's frankincense videos in hopes that their unsuspecting buyers will see your documentary and stop purchasing the essentially stolen oils from them.
