Frankincense Essential Oil
In 3000 BC, Frankincense had more value than gold and was sometimes referred to as “liquid gold.” Gum resin harvested from Frankincense trees located in Oman, India, Somalia and Yemen is distilled into Frankincense oil.
One of the oldest medical documents known to man dating back to 1500 BC recorded the use of Frankincense oil by physicians and priests alike for the treatment of disease and illness. Today modern science is giving validity to these early ancient practices and, once again, the essential oil of Frankincense is bringing new hope for improving and maintain optimal health.
Like all essential oils, Frankincense brings complexity and synergy through its many beneficial compounds and structures. Researchers have discovered that compounds identified as sesquiterpenes stimulate the limbic system, the emotional center of the brain, as well as key glands. No wonder the rich aromatic scent of this unique essential oil is calming to the senses, emotional state, and overall sense of well-being.
It is nearly impossible to list all of the benefits linked to this potent essential oil, and science is just beginning to understand some of its more prominent benefits. Researchers from Japan and the University of Maryland both determined that Frankincense oil has anti-inflammatory properties. This is critical when you realize that inflammation is widely believed to be the root cause of illness and disease.
Modern uses include muscle relaxation, immune stimulation, uplifting to mood and heightens awareness, antidepressant and is generally supportive of body systems. Frankincense oil can be used topically, internally, and diffused into the environment.
