Discovering how
essential oils are different from herbs and food supplements is
an important step in learning the variety of ways to use these
powerful plant oils.
Essential oils
are the heartbeat of the plant kingdom, and are perhaps the most
exciting life-giving substance we have in the world today. They
represent in plants what blood represents in humankind - life!
This heartbeat is the energy that was created to deliver the
nutrients into every cell of the body. Defined; Essential oils
are the subtle, volatile liquids that are distilled from plants,
shrubs, flowers, trees, bushes and seeds. An ancient process,
oil distillation is a delicate and precise art that has been
almost forgotten. Science is just now re-discovering the
incredible healing power of essential oils, and beginning to
acknowledge their value for our health.
More Potent Than Herbs....
Being
concentrated, the oils contain virtually all of the plants
healing nutrients, oxygenating molecules, amino acid precursors,
coenzyme A factors, trace minerals, enzymes, vitamins, hormones
and more. Because they are concentrated, essential oils are from
50 to 70 times more therapeutically potent than the herbs or
plants they are derived from. Unlike dried herbs that can lose
up to 90% of the healing nutrients and oxygen molecules,
essential oils do not. Research further shows that essential
oils when applied to skin will penetrate every single cell
within 20 minutes.
Because the very
life force of the plant is contained in essential oils, and
because this life force synergizes so favorably with the human
body, essential oils are now being considered as medicine by
some of the world's most prominent doctors. Clinical research
has proven 100% pure (without any solvents or chemical
additives), essential oils to be: Immune Stimulating,
Antiviral, Anti-infection, Antibacterial, Antimicrobial,
Antiseptic, Antitumoral, and Antifungal.
Recent research
has also shown that many of the so called "super bugs" that has
modern medicine so concerned cannot survive in the presence of
essential oils. And there has there been any pathogens known to
resist essential oils by mutating.
Best of all,
100% certified pure therapeutic grade essential oils are freely
available and safe for home use. Many people diffuse the oils
into the atmosphere of their homes, creating a virus free and
pleasant environment. Many of the oils are applied directly to
the skin to receive almost immediate benefit from many
ailments.
Others are
inhaled for relief from headaches, nausea, emotional release,
etc.
Nature's Most Effective Delivery Agent!"
Because
essential oils contain such high amounts of oxygenating
molecules, they act as an effective delivery agent to bring food
nutrients THROUGH the cell wall to feed the cell nucleus.
Without an
adequate delivery agent to assist the cell to receive needed
nutrients, the cell can become deprived of needed nutrition.
Without adequate nutrition, the cell wall thickens hindering
further delivery of nutrients. When malnutrition occurs, the
cell begins to deteriorate, creating a host for disease-causing
pathogens. Essential oils are known for their ability to pass
through the thickest cell walls. They have the ability to
restore diseased and malnourished cells back to health. In
fact, essential oils are nature's most effective catalyst and
delivery agent for feeding your body's several trillion cells.
