Guest guest Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 Hi Jody, > In a conversation yesterday with food oils supplier, I mentioned that > the correct dilution of an eo was 1:10 to prevent sensitization. He > asked me where I got the figure and to be truthful I don't know. This is one of the major problems in an (this) industry that is based on a host of misinformation that is kept alive by folks passing it along. > Am I passing on bad information? I would just hate me if so!! No need to hate yourself unless you don't correct the situation. ;-) As for the information .. I can't think of a way to soften this .. its about as bad as it gets. ;-) A 10% percentage of dilution is MUCH higher than the proven safe level of scientific testing of most of the EO we use in this business. If folks want to review THE Safety Manual on scientifically proven safe dilution for dermal application, Martin Watt's Plant Aromatics, the URL is below. The old edition was $75 .. I have published the new, revised edition and offer it for $44.90 .. it can now be seen and ordered at URL http://www.av-at.com/plantaromaticsavnp.html The revised edition came out in November 2001 and is now in the Fourth Printing. I am exclusive dealer for North and South America. Unless someone has this Safety Manual as a desk side reference .. they are playing Russian Roulette. > Jody Y'all keep smiling. :-) Butch http://www.AV-AT.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
