The easiest and simplest way of putting essential oils into the air for inhalation is to use an aromatic diffuser. A cold air diffuser uses room-temperature air to blow the oil up against some kind of nebulizer. This breaks the oils up into a micro-fine mist that is then dispersed into the air. The oils, with their oxygenating molecules, will then remain suspended for several hours to freshen and

AIR FRESHENERS AND AEROSOLSWho would have thought that air fresheners could be harmful? In a major longitudinal study, frequent use of air fresheners during pregnancy and early childhood was associated with higher levels of diarrhea, earache in infants and headaches, depression in mothers. In New Scientist a 1999 study revealed that in homes where aerosol sprays and air fresheners were used,

Heartburn is a burning pain felt behind the breastbone. It is most often the result of acid reflux, that is, when stomach acid rises up the esophagus where it irritates the lining. Lemon is one of the best remedies for heartburn, as it causes the stomach to stop excreting digestive acids. Simply add a drop or two of lemon to a small glass of water and drink.Did you know that Lemon essentail oil

I've been doing a lot of research these past several months and one of the things of great interest to me is... Why are the people of the USA the most ill and diseased in the world? There's so much to sort through and attempt to make sense of, big companies and pharma want us to use their latest great products, action groups are battling to be heard and taken seriously, and everything in between.

If you've been wondering if essential oils can be used with most pets, the answer is yes. However, I must CAUTION you should NOT use regular store-bought essential oils on your pets as they are not pure and could case great damage to your beloved companion.

When herbs are grown for the purpose of creating supplements, they are not usually grown organically.  Then they are harvested and taken into warehouses where they are dried with big blowers. Then they're chopped, capped, bottled, and packaged, and weeks, months, or even years later, we buy them and take them.  And they STILL help us, but it usually takes awhile.
