Poetically called the “life force” of the plant, essential oils
are stored in special cells, ducts, or glandular hairs that are distributed
among the roots, leaves, bark, stems, and flowers of the plant. They protect
the plant from insects, bacteria, mold, fungi, and other microorganisms, and
also help to heal inflicted wounds. These unique characteristics make essential
oils highly beneficial to mankind. A single oil may contain hundreds of constituents
that are molec-ularly 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 essentail oil produces quick and significant
results. They can be self-applied for ongoing benefits.
NOTE: Only therapeutic-grade essential oils should be applied to the
skin. Inferior oils, including those that claim to be “100%
pure” or “Grade A” are diluted with harmful solvents. Gwen
