7 Things You Should Know About Organic Essential
Oils
We can call an oil essential only when it
possesses the essence of the plant it is
extracted from. Organic essential oils have the
characteristic smell of the respective plant and
also all kinds of aroma compounds of that plant.
There are various methods to extract essential
oils the widely adopted are namely distillation,
expression, solvent extraction, etc. We have
jotted down 7 relevant facts about organic
essential oils one must know about.

Not Really Oils
Essential oils, as their name suggests cannot be
exactly termed as oils. These do not contain
fatty acids unlike other regular oils and are
just the highly concentrated forms of the essence
of a plantNot Really Oils
3
Entirely Natural, Cannot Be Patented
There is no synthetic or scientific way to
produce essential oils. The only way to extract
organic essential oils is totally and purely the
natural way, so these entities cannot be patented
in any form. This explains the fact why these
oils are not used by any pharmaceutical drugs
company. The only basis to know about the uses
and effects of essential oils is practical use
and experimentation. 
4
Purity Test
  To check the purity of an essential oil, simply
put a drop of that particular oil on a
construction paper. If the drop evaporates
leaving no ring behind then the said oil is pure
and if a ring is visible then that essential oil
is believed to be diluted with some other oil.
5
Anti-Bacterial, Anti-Fungal And Anti-Viral
  These oils are high on anti-bacterial,
anti-fungal and anti-viral properties. So, they
find extensive use in home-made cleaning
preparations. Most commonly used essential oils
are grapefruit, lemon, tea-tree, eucalyptus and
peppermint.
6
Elevate Mood
  A massage with any of these essential oils can
help you rejuvenate and lift your mood within
seconds. Essential oils like lavender and
peppermint have the ability to soothe your nerves
and produce happy and joyous sensations while
rosemary oil helps in increasing focus and
concentration.
7
Sensitivity Test
Before you use an essential oil, make sure you
match your sensitivity level to that oil. The
process to find out whether you are sensitive to
a particular essential oil or not is quite
simple. Just mix one drop of the essential oil
with half tablespoon of any carrier oil(almond
oil, olive oil, etc.) and then apply it on the
inside upper portion of your arm. After a few
hours, if you experience no redness or itching
then you are not sensitive to that oil.
8
Not To Be Used In Undiluted Form
  An essential oil should never be used in its
undiluted form. Always mix it with any carrier
oil or other diluting components to prevent an
adverse reaction. Although there are some
exceptions to this rule like lavender,
sandalwood, rose geranium that can be used in
their undiluted form. In case of babies and small
children, it is advised never to use essential
oils in their concentrated form and also to use
extremely small quantities
