Detailed
description
It
has a good balsamic sweet fragrance, while the Indian frankincense oil has a
very fresh smell. Contrary to what some commercial entities claim, steam or
hydro distilled frankincense oils do not contain boswellic acids
(triterpenoids), although may be present in trace quantities in the solvent
extracted products. The chemistry of the essential oil is mainly monoterpenes
and sesquiterpenes, with small amounts of diterpenoid components being the upper limit in
terms of molecular weight.
The word frankincense comes from the
term “franc encens,” which means quality incense in old French.
Frankincense has been associated with many different religions over the years,
especially the Christian religion, as it was one of the first gifts given to
Jesus by the wise men.
What Is Frankincense Essential Oil Used
For?
Frankincense oil is used by either inhaling the oil
or absorbing it through the skin, usually mixed with a carrier oil, such as an unscented
lotion or jojoba
oil. It’s believed that the oil transmits messages to
the limbic
system of the brain, which is known to influence the nervous system. A
little bit of oil goes a long way; it should not be ingested in large
quantities as it can be toxic.
If you’re purchasing essential oils, avoid oils that say
“fragrance oil” or “perfume oil” as these can be synthetic and don’t provide
the desired health benefits. Instead, look for oils that say “pure essential
oil” or “100% essential oil” for the highest quality essential oils.
