Guest guest Posted May 9, 2004 Report Share Posted May 9, 2004 Here is a brief evaluation of the posted monograph. My comments in upper case. NEROLI (Citrus aurantium) WHICH VARIETIES? THIS NAME TELLS YOU NOTHING OTHER THAN THE GENUS Botanical Family: Rutaceae (citrus). Plant Origin: Morocco, Tunisia. WRONG: TREE ORIGIN PROBABLY CHINA - OIL IS PRODUCED IN THE ABOVE. Extraction Method: Absolute extraction from flowers of the orange tree. WRONG: MOST IS STEAM DISTILLED Chemical Constituents: Monoterpenes (35%); THIS TELLS YOU NOTHING á pinene, â.pinenes (17.75%), limonene (11.45%); Alcols arom. (40%); THIS TELLS YOU NOTHING linalol (30-32%); Esters; Aldehydes; Ketones: jasmone.THIS TELLS YOU NOTHING Action: Anti-infectious, WHAT A STUPID TERM, DOES THAT MEAN IT STOPS YOU GETTING VIRAL INFECTIONS, BACTERIAL INFECTIONS, FUNGAL INFECTIONS, ETC. IF SO HOW? antibacterial, YES antiparasitic, WHAT VIA EXTERNAL USE??? digestive, APPLES ONLY TO THE TEA tonic, WHAT THE HECK DOES THAT MEAN? antidepressive, YES and hypotensive (lowers blood pressure). MAYBE Traditional Uses: Loved by the Egyptian people for its great attributes for healing the mind, body, and spirit. STRANGE, I DID NOT THINK THEY KNEW HOW TO PRODUCE ESSENTIAL OILS. Indications: Neroli may support the digestive system and fight bacteria, infections, parasites, and viruses. MAYBE IF THE TEA IS USED, BUT THE ESSENTIAL OIL-BULLSHIT! It may also help with anxiety, depression, digestive spasms, fear, head-aches, heart arrhythmia, hysteria, insomnia, nervous nervous tension, palpitations, PMS, shock, stress-related conditions, YES poor circulation, BULLSHIT scars, stretch marks, thread veins, and wrinkles. SKEPTICAL Other Uses: In support of the skin, neroli works at the cellular level to help shed the old skin cells and stimulate new cell growth. BULLSHIT! Safety Data: If currently under a doctor's care or pregnant, consult physician prior to use. AND WHAT DOES THE AVERAGE PHYSICIAN KNOW ABOUT SUCH MATTERS? WHERE IS THE REAL SAFETY DATA?
