In this episode we explore some of the ways that the Oils work in our body and why it matters, where you source your Oils. Study: Therapeutic Effect and Mechanisms of Essential Oils in Mood Disorders: Interaction between the Nervous and Respiratory Systems https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34063646/ “The favourable outcomes may be due to multiple mechanisms, including the regulation of monoamine level, the induction of neurotrophic factor expression, the regulation of the endocrine system and the promotion of neurogenesis. The molecules of EOs may reach the brain and exert an effect through two distinctive pathways, namely, the olfactory system and the respiratory system. After inhalation, the molecules of the EOs would either act directly on the olfactory mucosa or pass into the respiratory tract. These two delivery pathways suggest different underlying mechanisms of action. Different sets of responses would be triggered, such as increased neurogenesis, regulation of hormonal levels, activation of different brain regions, and alteration in blood biochemistry, which would ultimately affect both mood and emotion.”   ‘In human studies, acute exposure to lavender EO has been shown to decrease salivary and serum cortisol levels Simultaneously, findings indicated increased relaxation in subjects, including improved coronary flow velocity. The cortisol-suppressing effect was reported in adults, pregnant women, mothers of children with developmental dysfunction, young children, as well as patients undergoing chemotherapy. Apart from lavender, other EOs were also shown to affect cortisol levels, including bergamot and grapefruit seed."
