Benefits of ORANGE OIL

 
 

Dear community,

Orange oil is my most used oil….so I was delighted when I saw that we can get it for FREE this month!

Orange oil is cold pressed from the rind of the orange, which is rich in d-limonene.

The rind doesn’t contain acid, so it doesn’t affect the enamel on your teeth in the same way that the juice does. Hence, you can add however many drops you like into your water without consequences to your teeth.

I call orange oil ‘happiness in a bottle’ because of its sweet, clean, fresh, uplifting aroma.

WHY USE IT:

  • Cancer killing properties (d-limonene has been extensively studied in over 50 clinical studies for its ability to combat tumour growth)

  • Glutathione (antioxidant) producer- the citrus oils (along with lemongrass and Melissa oil) produce glutathione, which is the most powerful antioxidant

  • Reduces stress levels by reducing salivary cortisol levels and pulse rates

  • Sleep support

  • Air freshener

CAUTION: Be mindful not to wear when skin is exposed to sunlight, as orange oil is photosensitive

HOW TO USE IT:

AROMATIC

Diffuse with all other oils to add a sweet uplifting scent (as orange is a top note, always diffuse with a base or middle notes to slow down the release of orange to make it last longer) 

INGESTION

  • Add to raw treats, cakes and desserts (e.g. choc orange bliss balls, orange cake/ pannacotta)

  • Add a drop to cold water and hot chocolate

TOPICALLY

  • Apply to wrists for sleep support

Orange oil in the white labelled bottle is TGA approved as a WELLNESS OIL for the following THERAPEUTIC CLAIMS:

  • To induce sleep, promote refreshing sleep and healthy sleep patterns and reduce the time to fall asleep;

  • To relieve constipation & flatulence;

  • To decrease the loss of appetite and to maintain and help regulate a healthy appetite;

  • To reduce the symptoms and occurrence of mild anxiety and to aid in mind relaxation.

  • To increase body relaxation and nervous system relaxant.

The same oil is in the orange labelled bottle (and it’s the same price). So you can buy either one but if you want to make the above claims on social media (to the world at large) the TGA requires us to hold up the white labelled bottle.
