Have you wondered why the world has become super-dependent upon chemically processed products and neglected natural resources? There are many popular medications used for treating different illnesses, but few are derived from natural products. Some of these unprocessed products, have in the past, been successfully used to cure diseases from high blood pressure to skin disorders. Palmarosa essential oil is said to be among these highly effective natural products.
As medicinal treatment, Indian doctors use this sweet-scented grass to ward off bacteria and infections associated with cystitis, urethritis and vaginitis. Relief from the flu and other types of the common cold is another benefit of palmarosa. It has the ability to calm one’s body from fever and quickly heal wounds too.
This product is believed to promote healthy intestinal bacteria in the colon while encouraging a good appetite. It is even used in some West African foods to attack harmful bacteria and to aid digestion.
Palmarosa’s ability to control the production of oil on the skin makes it a wonderful enhancer for both dry and oily skin types.
Its emotional benefits include: relief from fatigue (both mental and physical) and stress. It clears the mind and is even said to overcome feelings of negativity, be it jealousy or insecurity.
If essential oils or natural products are your beauty preference, you might want to give palmarosa a try. But remember to adhere to all label instructions before using any pure essential oil, including this one.
