Grapefruit oil

What are the uses of grapefruit essential oil?

Essential oils are widely utilized as natural medicinal components of plants.

Grapefruit essential oil contains mixtures of volatile compounds, predominantly monoterpenes, and some sesquiterpenes, which are responsible for their characteristic aroma.

Limonene, a major compound in grapefruit essential oil can dissolve oils, which makes it a common ingredient in hand cleansers.
Grapefruit essential oil blends well with frankincense, ylang-ylang, geranium, lavender, peppermint, rosemary, and bergamot essential oils, which can provide additional body and mind benefits.

Experts suggest that grapefruit leaves and peels should be incorporated as an essential part of the diet because it has nutritional supplements and helps reduce the risks of several illnesses.

The simplest ways to use grapefruit essential oil include:

Inhaling the fragrance of grapefruit oil directly from the bottle relieves stress and headaches.
Combine grapefruit oil with carrier oil, such as jojoba oil, and rub it topically on sore muscles.
Mix one to two drops of grapefruit oil with half a teaspoon of jojoba or coconut oil and apply to the acne-affected region.
