Essential Oils
Your Guide to What They Do and How to Use Them
Of recent there has been increased interest in the possibilities of using essential oils. This interest has coincided with the belief that there have to be alternatives to the dominant medication approach which has been used by healthcare professionals as the go-to solution for any ailments.
Essential oils are also perceived to be part of a wider campaign of health promotion and preventative measures which keep people away from hospitals. So what is an essential oil? Perhaps the easiest way to define it is to consider how the essential oils are made.
First we identify an aroma that is made up of a range of complex and volatile compounds. These are then placed in a hydrophobic liquid which acts as a carrier. The compounds that are used are typically derived from natural plants. Some literature revers to aetherolea which is an extract from a given unit of flora.
If you discover the term “ethereal oil” do not get confused because it is merely a technical way of saying essential oil. The list of plants from which essential oils can be extracted is virtually endless. For example you can get it from a clove of garlic or stem of thyme.
The term “essence” is not just about the utility of the final product but also the production process. In this case you are capturing the essence or core element of a plant and then carrying it to the human body using an intermediary element. The fragrance is very important and the expectation is that it will broadly reflect what the plant smells like in its natural environment.

Poor source
This book is written using complex and academic language, however it falls short of being a trustworthy resource. Some sources were cited, but many others were not, and therefore the information in this book was not supported. This book appears to have been cheaply, hastily, and unprofessional my put together. The pictures featured throughout the book still had watermarks on them, meaning the author did not pay for the permission to use them. Captions for the photos were often incomplete. There was a header for "about the author" but no information under it. Perhaps the writer doesn't want to be associated with this poorly done ebook.

Thinking of getting into essential oils.
This is a well written book about essential oils. I've even thinking about trying oils. There was a lot of helpful information.

EO's
This book gave a lot of information but no recipes. I like that it address that some EO's are harmful and certain ones should not be used while pregnant.

This has quite a bit of information, but I didn't like the way it was organized, so I didn't read much, just skimmed it.

Great Read
It was very informative for me since I'm just starting with essential oils. Definitely worth the read for beginners looking at oils.
