What is Phytosun Aroms Organic Grapefruit Essential Oil used for?
Grapefruit essence has anti-arrhythmic, disinfectant (aerial diffusion) and skin-tightening properties. It is also a digestive tonic. Native to Malaysia, grapefruit (Citrus paradisi - Rutaceae family) was already cultivated in China over 2000 years before our era. Its essential oil is ideal for digestion. Grapefruit is a friend of the gallbladder.
Phytosun Aroms Grapefruit essential oil is an organic essential oil, highly concentrated in limonene, alpha pinene and myrcene. These compounds give it antiseptic, cleansing and neurotropic properties, as well as antioxidant and choleretic secondary properties.
Grapefruit essential oil is a powerful disinfectant thanks to its antiseptic and sanitizing properties, mainly due to its high limonene content. When diffused into the air, it acts effectively against bacteria and viruses, helping to sanitize the environment and reduce the risk of infection. It can be used to disinfect ambient air in enclosed spaces, or to purify a room after an illness.
The presence of limonene in Grapefruit essential oil gives it neurotropic properties. It stimulates and increases blood pressure, making the autonomic nervous system more receptive and reactive. This can help increase alertness and improve concentration. However, it is important to note that it is not recommended to use this essential oil in combination with Lavender Fine essential oil, which has opposite calming properties.
Grapefruit essential oil has anti-oxidant properties, which means it can help protect cells against damage caused by free radicals. By neutralizing these free radicals, it helps prevent premature skin aging and maintain optimal cellular health.
Choleretic is a property that promotes the production and secretion of bile by the liver. Grapefruit essential oil can stimulate this liver function, which can benefit digestion and the functioning of the digestive system. It can be used to support digestive health, particularly in cases of difficult digestion or liver congestion.
