essential oils

Essential oils are effective against bacteria, fungi and viruses, reduce inflammation, strengthen the immune system and regenerate the body. Last but not least, they increase joie de vivre, calm the nerves and improve well-being. Quality is crucial: only pure natural essential oils contain all the active ingredients of a plant.

Every plant has active ingredients that help it to grow and thrive. Many of these active ingredients have a similar effect on humans as they do on plants. Essential oils are made from the flowers, bark, seeds and roots of plants. They contain all the active ingredients in concentrated form. However, the term "oil" is not entirely accurate. In contrast to "fatty oils", essential oils do not contain any fats. However, they are fat-soluble.

Essential oils can be used in many different ways. For example, for flavoring food (aromatic cuisine) and for skin care(natural cosmetics). However, essential oils are most often absorbed through the nose. They are placed in fragrance lamps, dripped onto fragrance sticks or diffused in the room using special aroma diffusers. In this way, the active ingredients enter the body via the nasal mucosa, where the fragrance molecules have an effect on the brain and the limbic system.
