CARROT SEED
daucus carota {10ml}

Product Summary

Carrot Seed is a very full Essential Oil and therefore a precious aid in therapy and able to be assimilated just as well through the skin as orally. It has the strongest affinity for the liver, kidneys, pancreas, and skin.*

Generally used after an attack of an illness and not during. It has antianemic properties and is slightly neuro-tonic due to its alcohols. It is an anti-inflammatory agent which may assist the body with cardiovascular functions.*

Carrot Seed along with Dill Weed, are two rare essential oils of the Apiaceae family which are gentle and non-toxic. Carrot Seed, however, can quickly become nauseating and should always be blended with other essential oils.*

Carrot Seed is an essential oil somewhat in its own class, more often than not misunderstood, but possessing significant properties. It should not be used indiscriminately, but selectively.*
