What is an Essential Oil? Poetically called the "life force" of a plant, essential oils are very complex. Essential oils are stored in special cells, ducts, or glandular hairs that are distributed among the roots, leaves, bark, stem, and flowers of the plant. Uplifting, protective, calming, and regenerating essential oils-a unique gift from the plant world. A single oil may contain hundreds of constituents that are molecularly aligned in exactly the right manner to trigger a number of responses in the human body. Very concentrated and very powerful, a drop or two of distilled therapeutic grade essential oil produces quick and significant results. Essential oils protect the plant from insects and
other herbivores, from bacteria, molds, fungi, and other microorganisms, and
also helps to heal inflicted wounds. These unique characteristics make essential
oils highly beneficial to humankind. |
