Clove Oil packs a power punch! 💥
Clove oil is made up of between 80 to 95% percent eugenol. Why so interesting?
Eugenol is a compound of great industrial interest because of its antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Clove can be a warm oil so many dilute with Coconut Oil or Young Living’s V-6 carrier Oil
Back in the day~It was one of the oils used during the days of the bubonic plague which could protect people from becoming infected.
Clove essential oil is made by extracting the oil from the buds of the clove tree.
Diffusing with clove essential oils can help reduce your feelings of stress, and rejuvenate your energy levels. Inhaling the medicated steam of a diffuser while you sleep helps your lungs absorb the polyphenols from the oil.
