What are Essential Oils?
• Aromatic Liquids
• Extremely Potentopically, Inhaled & Ingested
• Not “seed” oils, like we use in cooking. Therefore, they are not greasy, nor do they turn rancid
• Are “volatile,” simply meaning they easily evaporate at ambient temperatures and break down molecularly when exposed to heat
Essential Oils are the Vitality, the Essence, the Energy of Plants
Essential oils have the ability to:
• Prevent and relieve the discomforts associated with a wide variety of health problems
• Reduce stress
• Lift depression and restore or enhance a sense of well-being
• Provide revitalizing beauty-care treatments for skin, hair, and body

Pharmacologically
• The human body is made up of proteins -- every cell from toenails to hair
• Essential oils are compounds containing amino acids which convert to protein
• When cells are compromised, essential oils start regeneration through the healing amino acids and the increased oxygen to the tissues

Physiologically
• Essential oils have an affinity with particular areas of the body
• Several oils from herbs support the musculoskeletal and immune systems
• Various oils from spices benefit the digestive and immune systems
• Many oils can break down and detoxify the chemical build up in fatty tissue, potentially clearing DNA
• Research has shown that anyone who uses essential oils on a continuous basis has a stronger immune system. Those who contract a cold or the flu recover 70% faster using essential oils.
