We have a variety of CBD products with essential oils that you're sure to enjoy. But before you check them out, keep reading to learn all about why pairing Summer essential oils with CBD is so beneficial.
To put it simply, essential oils are concentrated extracts from plants. Plants have all kinds of structural materials and chemicals. The essential oil chemicals have properties that benefit both the plant and people as well. There are cells in a plant that gives it the fragrant small - often called its "essence." When the essence is extracted from plants, it becomes an essential oil.
Making an essential oil requires a huge amount of plant material. For example, to make one pound of lavender essential oil, you need approximately 250 pounds of lavender flowers. This is part of the reason why essential oils lean more on the pricey side.
The most popular way most essential oils are used is through aromatherapy. Aromatherapy is a type of therapeutic practice where you smell the essential oils and potentially experience health benefits.
Most people know that one person who raves about essential oils. They have shelves full of little glass bottles of oils and claim they can cure just about every ailments. But is there any truth to this? Research is definitely needed on the subject; however, the studies we do have on essential oils look very promising.
This study of 56 patients showed that using essential oils in aromatherapy reduced anxiety, improved sleep, and even lowered blood pressure. In this particular study, a combination of lavender, chamomile, and neroli was administered to patients in the ICU. The patients who participated in the aromatherapy showed significantly lower anxiety, improved sleep quality and improved blood pressure.
In a review published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, investigators found that aromatherapy is potentially effective in reducing pain, blood pressure, stress, depression, sleep issues, anxiety, and more. Plus, many essential oils (including orange, lemon, and eucalyptus) have antibacterial and antimicrobial properties as well. This is why they are so popular in many natural cleaning products as well.
In addition to aromatherapy, essential oils can be beneficial when applied topically as well. This makes our CBD Bath Bombs and CBD Essential Oil Roll-Ons fantastic options for experiencing the benefits of essential oils.
