Essential Oils vs Medicine? [POLL]

It seems like a lot of people are exchanging medicine in their medicine cabinets for essential oils. Pepto Bis-mo is being exchanged for Frankincense and Lemon Oil. Spider bits are being taken care of with Lavender Oils and parents are sending their kids to school with Peppermint Oil to keep them alert and awake in school.

My family has just started using essential oils and so far I think they are working wonders, but I have a really hard time throwing away the Tylenol completely.
