Using The Antimicrobial and Immune-Supportive Essential Oils

The body of scientific evidence regarding the potency of plant medicines against a great variety of viral and bacterial illnesses is growing. And with the Winter months -- the "cold and flu season" -- coming, now is the time to investigate all the ways you can protect your health and the health of your family. More and more people are turning to the vast healing potential of essential oils, getting beyond the soft ideas of "aromatherapy" and into the practical value of "aroma medicine". Using essential oils for immune system support is a tried-and-true application -- in fact, most medical aromatherapists consider the most important use of essential oils in medical applications will be for the prevention and treatment of infectious illness (see Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt's 'Medical Aromatherapy').
