Ways to Use Essential Oils For Healing and Health

If you fall into this category, a recent article from TheTruthAboutCancer.com will offer some great tips on how to use essential oils as part of your healing practice and general health improvement.

New users of essential oils often wonder what to do with them beyond taking off the caps and sniffing the oils.

There can be hundreds of phytochemicals (plant based chemicals) within each drop of essential oil. These phytochemicals have funny names like terpenes, aldehydes, esters, ketones, phenols, oxides, sesquiterpenes, and many more.

Each phytochemical has different properties and science is just beginning to understand how each phytochemical works in the human body.

The phytochemical make-up of an oil can vary from plant to plant. You need to ensure that your essential oils, particularly if you are using them for regaining your health, come from a reputable company. Don’t just rely on a label that says “pure.”
