Pranarom Tarragon Essential Oil 5 ml, available at our organic pharmacy—a natural remedy to relieve digestive issues and muscle cramps and reduce stress.
Native to the Middle East, Arab physicians were already using it as early as the year 1000. In the Middle Ages, Avicenna documented its antispasmodic and digestive properties. Its current reputation stems from its effectiveness in relieving gas and intestinal fermentation, as well as menstrual cramps. The essential oil is widely used in aromatherapy for its neuromuscular antispasmodic, antiviral, and anti-allergic properties.
Tarragonessential oil has antispasmodic properties for smooth muscles. It is anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antiallergic, and antibacterial (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli). It is an anti-fermentative, intestinal antiseptic, and antifungal essential oil. It also acts as a stomachic, an aperitif, and a carminative. It has anticonvulsant and sedative properties. As a psycho-emotional tonic and stress reliever, it also exhibits significant anticholinesterase activity.
Medications that increase cholinergic activity in the central nervous system are used to treat Alzheimer’s-type dementia (there is a reduction in cholinergic neurons in the cortex and hippocampus in patients with this type of dementia). Cholinesterase inhibitors increase acetylcholine levels at neuronal synapses by inhibiting the enzyme responsible for the breakdown of acetylcholine, thereby promoting increased cholinergic transmission.
Tarragon essential oil has antibacterial properties, making it an effective agent against various infections. It is particularly known for its anti-urinary infection activity, its antibacterial action against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, and its antifungal effect on Candida.
This essential oil is also valued for its digestive properties. It acts as a digestive stimulant, anti-fermentative agent, and intestinal antiseptic. Furthermore, it is considered a stomachic, appetite stimulant, and carminative, making it a valuable ally in promoting healthy and comfortable digestion.
Tarragon essential oil has anti-allergic properties, which give it antihistamine and anti-inflammatory effects. It may be beneficial for relieving symptoms associated with allergies and inflammatory reactions. Neurologically, this essential oil acts as a neuromuscular antispasmodic, giving it anticonvulsant and sedative properties. It also acts as a psycho-emotional tonic, which can help relieve stress and anxiety.
An interesting characteristic of tarragon essential oil is its anticholinesterase activity. This activity helps increase cholinergic activity in the central nervous system. It may be used in the treatment of Alzheimer’s-type dementia, in which a decrease in cholinergic neurons is observed. Inhibiting the enzyme responsible for the breakdown of acetylcholine thus promotes increased cholinergic transmission.
