High quality 100% Bitter Orange Leaf Essential Oil for skin care

short description:

Traditional uses

The dried peel of both bitter and sweet orange has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years to treat anorexia, colds, coughs, digestive spasm relief and to stimulate digestion. The rind is both carminative and tonic, and the fresh rind is used as a remedy for acne. Bitter orange juice is antiseptic, anti-bilious and haemostatic.

In central and south America, China, Haiti, Italy and Mexico, decoctions of the leaves from C. aurantium have been taken internally as a traditional remedy to utilise their sudorific, antispasmodic, antiemetic, stimulant, stomachic and tonic properties. Some conditions treated with the leaves include colds, flu, fever, diarrhoea, digestive spasm and indigestion, hemorrhages, infant colic, nausea and vomiting and skin blemishes.

Citrus aurantium is an amazing tree that is absolutely bursting with natural remedies hidden within the fruit, flowers and leaves. And all of these therapeutic properties are available to everyone today in the convenient form of the various essential oils yielded from this wondrous tree.

Harvesting and Extraction

Unlike most other fruits, oranges do not continue to mature after picking, therefore harvesting must be done at precisely the right time if maximum oil levels are to be achieved. Bitter orange essential oil is obtained by cold expression of the rind, and yields orange-yellow or orange-brown essential oil with a fresh, fruity citrus aroma virtually identical to that of sweet orange.

Benefits of Bitter Orange Essential Oil

Although the therapeutic properties action of bitter orange essential oil are considered to be very similar to sweet orange, in my experience bitter orange appears more potent and often yields better results than the sweet variety. It is effective for the treatment of poor digestion, constipation and clearing congestion of the liver when used in massage blends.

The cleansing, stimulating and toning action of bitter orange essential oil makes it ideal to add to other lymphatic stimulants for treating oedema, cellulite or as part of a detoxification program. Varicose veins and facial thread veins respond well to this essential oil, especially when blended with cypress oil in facial treatments. Some aromatherapists have had success treating acne with this oil, perhaps due its antiseptic properties.

On the emotional system bitter orange essential oil is extremely uplifting and energizing for the body, yet calming to the mind and emotions. It is used in Ayurvedic medicine as an aid to meditation, and this is perhaps why it can be extremely helpful in easing stress and anxiety. Diffusing bitter orange oil is said to help dispel tantrums and frustration for both adults and children alike!

    Although not quite as popular in aromatherapy as its sweeter relation, nonetheless Bitter Orange essential oil offers a wide range of health benefits to both qualified aromatherapists and home enthusiasts alike.

    The essential oil is obtained from the peel of Citrus aurantium fruits which are acid-bitter, and therefore too sour to be eaten as out-of-hand fruit.

    However, they are perfect for making an absolutely delicious marmalade that is eaten around the world. Bitter orange essential oil is still used to flavour a wide range of consumables including confectionaries, ice cream, chewing gum, soft drinks and liqueurs.

    Until recently it was used extensively by the perfumery industry in perfumes and colognes. Synthetic fragrances are now used mostly in this industry.
