Essentia Aniseed Oil
Aniseeds are steam distilled to yield the essential oil, also known as 'Oil of Anise'. Essentia Aniseed oil maintains its characteristically spicy-sweet 'licorice-like' scent.
Aniseed oil is used therapeutically for its carminative properties – to relieve indigestion,bloating and flatulence - and can be combined with other carminative aromas such as ginger and pepper to enhance this effect.
Mix 4 drops essential oil to 10 drops carrier oil, and massage into the stomach area. Alternatively, simply burn Essentia Aniseed Oil in an oil burner after meals. Aniseed is said to have both 'stimulating' and 'relaxing' properties, which contribute to its success in both sluggish digestion, and spastic colon.
Essentia Aniseed Oil works as a mild expectorant to decongest mucus, and remove catarrh from the bronchioles or nasal passages. This has been found to be soothing in conditions such as asthma, and colds and flu.
Essential oil can be used externally as an insecticide against head lice and mites. It also has fungicidal and antiseptic properties.
