cleansing properties. Melissa has a grassy, lemon scent that

is also comforting during the winter season and supportive of immune
system function.* Melissa has an approximate ORAC of 1,343,547

Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils (YLTG)
Essential oils are
aromatic volatile liquids distilled from bushes, flowers, roots,
seeds, shrubs and trees.
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.
