What are essential oils?
Essential oils are obtained from certain parts of plants like barks, herbs, leaves, and rinds.
It takes a tremendous amount of plant material to make essential oils, which can make some of them expensive. For example:
About 250 pounds of lavender flowers make 1 pound of lavender essential oil.
About 5,000 pounds of rose petals or lemon balm make 1 pound of rose or lemon balm essential oil. The essential oil that you choose will depend on the purpose—do you want it to help elevate your mood or do you need something to treat a burn? Essential oils can be used in aromatherapy, a complementary medicine that uses smell to improve your health, or topically applied to the skin. The oil has the flavor and scent or essence of plants and it has strong aroma compounds making it unique. The most popular essential oils are lemon, lemongrass, peppermint, rosemary, tea tree, and lavender.
