After determining that four distilled citrus essential oils (sweet orange, grapefruit, lemon, and tangerine) each possess excellent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, researchers evaluated their effects in a preclinical model of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). What the researchers found was that the oils reduce inflammation in a similar manner to the NSAID ibuprofen, suggesting these oils should be further evaluated in human clinical trials as a natural solution for RA.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a disorder characterized by intense fear, flashbacks, and anxiety after a traumatic experience. Over the last several years, researchers have performed various experiments to better understand what leads to PTSD. Leading theories include alterations in fear memory circuits within the brain, neurohormonal changes (catecholamine, serotonin, epinephrine, norepinephrine), exacerbation of inflammation in the peripheral immune system, and mitochondrial dysfunction.
A preclinical model of PTSD investigated the effects of essential oils. Inhalation of 25% orange essential oil prior to and after fear conditioning showed that orange oil helped subjects extinguish fear memory 48 hours after the fearful experience. Further evaluation found that orange oil balanced the neuroimmune response during recollection of a fearful event previously experienced. The research suggests that inhaling orange oil helps reduce inflammation associated with chronic stress and fear and may be valuable in the management of PTSD.

Did you know Essential Oils can shift your emotions and mood?
When you breathe in an essential oil, molecules enter the limbic system and elicit an emotional response.
Rosemary oil can help balance feelings of overwhelm.
Peppermint oil can relieve restlessness and anxious feelings.
Oils have both an emotional AND physical effect on the body.🙂

👇 Another great study on Psoriasis and Turmeric!! 👀
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune/autoinflammatory condition characterized by well-defined red plaques and silvery scaly areas that affects the skin, joints, and tendons. T lymphocytes play a role in its development and progression by triggering cytokine production and tissue alterations. A preclinical model of psoriasis found that topical application of a nanoemulsion containing 15% turmeric essential oil reduced inflammation causing the researchers to conclude that it has potential to serve as an alternative treatment for skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis.

😳Have you been eating too much Easter Candy lately???
Thinking about breaking up with sugar?
I used to have a love affair with sugar. I craved it. I needed it. And it was slowly destroying me 😔. Luckily, I reclaimed my life and broke up with added sugar. It wasn’t easy at first, but it was the best thing I did for my hormone health, mood and waistline. If it didn’t occur in a food naturally, I wasn’t going to eat it. And even when I did, moderation was key.
So, how did I do it?
One of my go-to tricks for dealing with sugar cravings is essential oils 🙌.
Peppermint EO curbs cravings. Inhale it, wear it, drink it in your water with lemon wedges.. Chew peppermint gum.
Whatever you do, make Peppermint 🌿 your new best friend. Its the ultimate sugar craving suppressor!
Grapefruit and Lemon 🍋 EO detoxes and banishes cravings. I love Grapefruit! I add it to my water and smoothies on a daily basis to keep my metabolism a peak condition and to help to flush out any toxins in my body. It keeps me hydrated💦, satiated, and happy!
Overcome your sugar 🍬 triggers with EOs. You’ve got to find what triggers the cravings for sugar in your brain and have essential oils to manage those emergency 🚨 moments 👊.
Don’t let sugary sweets be a reward for good things that happen. Don’t let wine 🍷 fuel your need to relax. Don’t let binge eating ease the pain of your monthly period.
Calm your mind and body with Lavender and Ylang Ylang, or ground your emotions 😩 with Bergamot, Cedarwood, or Frankincense.
Reach for the Clary Sage when monthly hormones go haywire. And drink a glass of water any time you feel a craving come on while you’re at it 💦.
