Sesquiter…huh?!
Sesquiterpenes are unique compounds found in many essential oils that support a healthy response to inflammation in the body. They also have the unique ability to cross the blood brain barrier, which is something that many of today’s pharmaceuticals are unable to do!
Sesquiterpene molecules deliver oxygen to cells, including the cells of the brain. This offers great hope in supporting the fight against degenerative brain disorders and brain injuries. These compounds, and the essential oils they are found in, have been used for thousands of years! Essential oils are actually mentioned hundreds of times in the bible! Meaning they are NOT some voodoo, trendy, new age idea. They have both science and history on their side.
Thankfully essential oils have never been easier to obtain than they are today! However, quality is of upmost importance with essential oils. To ensure both safety, and an optimal experience you need to make sure you are using pure, therapeutic grade essential oils that are free of pesticides, herbicides, vegetable oils and other "fillers". It is also important to make sure that the plants your essential oil was distilled from were indigenously grown to ensure maximum benefits. You NEVER want to use essential oils that were force grown in sub-optimal conditions or in a lab!
Some essential oils that are high in sesquiterpenes and also have a lengthy history of documented use include: Cedarwood, Vetiver, Spikenard, Sandalwood, Myrrh, and Frankincense.
Thank you for reading!
