LEMON OIL FROM LEMON

(EIRI/EDPR/0425) J.C.7078,8007

         Lemon  Essential Oil has a refreshing scent that is  thought to  stimulate the liver and has a gentle, calming  effect.  Lemon oil is thought to promote clarity of mind and purpose, as well as generally increasing one's well-being and physical energy.

     The  oil is produced from the outer peel of the lemon  fruit through cold pressing. Lemon is considered one of the lightest in aromatherapy, a nice bright 'top note'. 

       Lemon  oil's aroma is warming, enhancing  and  invigorating, and  studies have shown it to have antidepressant effects.  Lemon oil  apparently  has  a significant effect on  one's  ability  to concentrate:   During  a  university  study  in  Japan,   various essential oils were diffused into an office. When Lemon Essential Oil  was diffused, 54% fewer errors were made, with Jasmine  Oil, 33% fewer errors, and with Lavender Oil, 20% fewer. Diffusion  of essential  oils  was found to increase test scores by up  to  50% when diffused into study and test-taking areas.

     In   addition  to  its  uplifting  and  clarifying   nature, emotionally,  lemon oil is considered an opener of the heart.  It is said to alleviate fears of losing oneself, bringing trust  and security. 

     Lemon  essential oil has been shown to eliminate many  types of bacteria, and may be the most effective oil for disinfecting a room  using a diffuser. It is often used in disinfecting  blends. In  many European countries, the oil is considered somewhat of  a 'cure all', particularly with infectious illness. Lemon Oil  also serves well as an insect repellent, alone or in blends.
