Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils (YLTG)
Essential oils
are aromatic volatile liquids distilled from bushes,
flowers, roots, seeds, shrubs and trees.
The
Chemistry of
essential oils
is very complex; each one may consist of hundreds of
different and unique chemical compounds.
Unlike
synthetic chemicals,
essential oils
are diverse in their effects, no two oils are alike.
One of the factors that
determine the purity of an
essential oil is its chemical
constituents.
Essential oils are
highly concentrated and far more potent than dried herbs.
