Aromatherapy and Weight Loss

April 22, 2020

QUESTION: I am 20 pounds over my ideal weight. Is there anything in aromatherapy to help lose weight?

ANSWER: Research studies have proved the success of using fragrances for appetite control. An essential oil is intensely smelled for 5 – 7 minutes and has been found to reduce the appetite. Usually culinary type essential oils are used like: Aniseed, Basil, Black Pepper, Cardamon, Cinnamon, Clove, Fennel, Ginger, Grapefruit, Lemon, Lemongrass, Lime, Nutmeg, Orange, Oregano, Rosemary, Sage, Tangerine, Thyme, Vanilla. Some of these oils come with safety warnings that should be considered before using.

I would like to know if there is anythng that can be taken for boils, I get these awful things, and they always appear in the same areas, around the bra line under the breasts and armpits and in one spot on the panty line (groin area). I have had them looked at by the GYN. and the family physician and they have both told me that it is an infection in the blood and that some people have it and they have had me on some very strong antibiotics for it but they soon reappear. Is there anything that I can take to cure this?

When there are cold germs around my house, I use Cajeput, Eucalyptus, Lavender, Peppermint, Pine, Rosemary, Sandalwood, Thyme and Tea Tree. Some of these oils come with safety cautions (see Safety Information) that would apply even if you were just to diffuse them in a room so it’s best to know a little about them before using.
