ORANGE ESSENTIAL OILEssential oils are concentrated oils that are derived from plants. Several types of oils are produced from citrus species, including oranges, lemon, and grapefruit. Orange essential oil has a sweet smell to it when it is purely extracted from the skin of oranges. For the first time ‘RONGON HERBALS’ is launching 11 types of essential oils extracted purely from the plants, ensuring the usual top-notch quality of the products. Orange essential oil is extracted from the skin of oranges and stored in a glass container keeping it free from the mixing with the outer air. The benefits of orange essential oil are- • lift your mood or reduce stress [1] • treat skin conditions such as acne [1] • reduce pain or inflammation [1] • relieve stomach upset [1] • use as a natural household cleaner [1] • add a pleasant scent to a room or to products like perfumes and cleaners [1] • Orange essential oil can be effective at stopping the growth of some types of bacteria and fungi. [1] • Aromatherapy with orange essential oil appears to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.[1] • Inhaling essential oil or absorbing it through the skin transmits messages to the limbic system. This is a region of the brain that helps process emotions and regulates the autonomic nervous system, which is responsible for things like heart rate, blood pressure, respiration, and gut motility. [3] • Orange essential oil may also be useful in easing stress and anxiety (when used as aromatherapy) and improving acne (when used topically).[3] • Some small studies have indicated that using orange essential oil topically or for aromatherapy may help with short-term pain.[1] • Studies have indicated that orange essential oil or its components can inhibit the growth and lead to cell death in some cultured cancer cell lines.[1] • Treats cold and flu • In a 2015 study, a trusted source [2] claimed, women in labor reported less anxiety after inhaling orange essential oil than women in the control group who inhaled distilled water. • The essential oil specially diluted with olive oil as a carrier works both as antiseptic and anti-inflammatory so works great on the scalp and soothes the irritated scalp [4] • Moisturizes the strand of hair and makes them smooth [4] • The oil makes the roots of the hair strong and prevents hair fall as its full of vitamins resulting in hair growth [4] You can use orange essential oil in aromatherapy, by spraying after mixing it with water or by simply mixing it with carrier oil like aloe-olive oil or olive oil or any other carrier oils. For best results, try out our essential oils diluting it with ‘RONGON HERBALS’ Aloe- Olive oil or Olive oil. But test a small area on your skin after diluting to see if it causes irritation or not. The usefulness of orange essential oils is beyond compare. For leading a stress free life, start using essential oils and see the results yourself!
