Secrets of Grapefruit Essential Oil
Just the mention of grapefruit can make your mouth water thinking about the juicy, pink sections of this Vitamin-C packed citrus favorite. In the world of aromatherapy, however, grapefruit oil is sought after for its many wellness-enhancing benefits.
Grapefruit essential oil is sourced from the peel of the fruit, using a process called expression or cold pressing, not unlike using your citrus zester at home! Certified aromatherapy practitioners suggest the inhale and exhale of breathing in grapefruit oil's tangy scent can help lift a slumped mood, or give you a little boost of energy.
Grapefruit essential oil also contains a number of compounds thought to enhance and enliven health, such as d-limonene. D-limonene is actually used as a component of some medicines for its properties and benefits.
New research is coming out all the time, but Grapefruit essential oil has been linked to physiological benefits in areas such as weight loss, and exhaustion, as well as helping people feel uplifted and more positive going about their day.
