Internal use

[Guest guest]

Hi all

I also don't advise clients to take the essential oils internally, but have done

so

myself. I put one drop in honey and add warm water to dissolve it. Then down

in

one - it tastes awful and does repeat on you all day! Peppermint for

indigestion;

geranium for diarrhoea; ravensara for colds/flu are the ones I've tried

successfully.

If we talk about internal use, we could also include here vaginal/anal use. I

know

there are tea tree pessaries available, but I haven't found them available here.

I

have used tea tree on a tampon though - burns like hell for a few minutes but

then

it's OK, and works well for thrush.
