There are many Gifts of the Earth we receive daily such as air, water, food, and life. What about health? There is a “Gift of the Earth” for our health and that gift is found in essential oils. What are Essential Oils? Essential oils are the plants natural defense. For example, Lavender puts out thistle hairs to protect the dynamic chemistry found in the oils sack. One drop of essential oil contains hundreds of unique powerful chemistry compounds. It’s important to remember that our bodies and plants have very similar building blocks. So, when we take these essential oils into our bodies, they are in a familiar environment and they go to work on our behalf, just as they would for the plants. These essential oils work at the root of the problem at a cellular level. Major civilizations throughout the centuries, recognize the capabilities of essential oils. Egyptian grave robbers would often steal the essential oils, instead of the gold. Some of the first therapeutic records from China show the use of essential oils. Hypocrites used oregano in his practice. Frankincense and Myrrh were brought to the Christ child. Essential oils were used in throughout the dark ages for their therapeutic benefits. Fortunately, there is another way. Millions around the globe have experienced how powerful the potent compounds in essential oils can be; without synthetics, fillers, or additives. Essential oils are often faster, safer, more effective and less expensive than the synthetic products.

Eterična ulja su smjese hlapivih, biološki aktivnih spojeva. Dobivaju se iz biljnog materijala destilacijom vodenom parom ili tiještenjem. Zbog malih molekula i lipofilnosti kroz kožu vrlo brzo ulaze u organizam. Da bismo regulirali brzinu prodiranja kroz kožu, eterična ulja na kožu se nanose razrijeđena u biljnim (nosivim) uljima. Na taj način smanjujemo eventualna oštećenja kože do kojih može doći zbog nanošenja čistog eteričnog ulja ali i spriječavamo nagli ulazak eteričnog ulja u organizam (neka ulja sadrže toksične komponente). Eterična se ulja samo u iznimnim slučajevima nanose nerazrijeđena na kožu. Slijedi pregled članaka o eteričnim uljima i njihovoj primjeni s praktičnim recepturama kod pojedinih zdravstvenih tegoba.
