Patchouli Essential Oil Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin), you might remember patchouli as the incense and aroma of the 1960s and 1970s. In Eastern cultures, it is commonly used around the house to provide general support for health and to help release negative emotions. It is very beneficial for the skin, helping to reduce a wrinkled or chapped appearance. Patchouli is a general tonic that supports the digestive system and soothes occasional queasiness.* Patchouli has an approximate ORAC of 494,271 (TE/L). What does ORAC mean? ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity. It tells you the antioxidant capacity of a food item. Antioxidants have shown to reduce the risk of age related conditions and cancer! This was developed by the USDA researchers. For instance: Oranges = 750; Clove = 1,078,700. Patchouli in addition to combating negative emotions, it has historically been used to relieve nausea.** How to Use: Diffuse for aromatherapy, inhale directly, apply topically, or take as a dietary supplement. When using as a supplement, dilute one drop in 4 fl. oz. of liquid such as goat's or rice milk. Possible skin sensitivity. Dilution not required; suitable for all but the most sensitive skin. Generally safe for children over 2 years of age. Tip: A few drops of Patchouli on a piece of kleenex in our vacuum cleaner bag diffuses the aroma about the rooms. **Modern scientific research has not yet validated these historical claims. * Statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. |
