Essential Oils for Gentle Detoxification
Our bodies are effective storage facilities for all the toxins and junk we eat, breath in, and use daily. The body protects us from these toxins by storing them in fat cells. Try making your own detox water, by adding 1-2 drops of lemon, lime, orange or grapefruit per 8 oz of water to create a gentle detoxification. It is recommended to use essential oils only in glass water bottles and cups.
Essential Oils for Blood Sugar Support
Metabolic oils, like cinnamon, lavender, clove, and metabolic blend, are extremely supportive to maintaining a healthy blood sugar which can assist in curbing cravings.
Studies suggest that clove bud may reduce enzymes in the pancreas that are linked to diabetes. Lavender oil may help to balance high blood sugar levels.
