Lime Essential Oil
Maybe many people have not known lime essential oil in detail. Today, I will take you to understand the lime essential oil from four aspects.
Introduction of Lime Essential Oil
Lime Essential Oil is amongst the most affordable of essential oils and is routinely used for its energizing, fresh and cheerful aroma. It is well known in folklore for its ability to cleanse, purify and renew the spirit and the mind. It is also said to be effective in cleansing the aura. Its sweet yet tart, citrusy aroma blends well with so many other oils. Its aroma is especially concentrated, and a little goes a very long way. With the exception of floral Neroli Essential Oil, cold pressed Lime Essential Oil may be the most aromatically potent of the fruity citrus oils.
Lime Essential Oil Effects & Benefits
The health benefits of Lime essential oil can be attributed to its properties as a potentially antiseptic, antiviral, astringent, aperitif, bactericidal, disinfectant, febrifuge, hemostatic, restorative, and tonic substance.
1.May Treat Infections
The lime essential oil may have some antiseptic properties, and it can treat infections and might even protect against their development. More specifically, it can prevent tetanus if you are wounded by iron. When externally applied, lime oil can cure infections of the skin and wounds. When consumed, it can effectively help to treat some infections which may include infections of the throat, mouth, colon, stomach, intestines, and urinary system. It can be miraculously effective in curing sores, gangrene, psoriasis, ulcers, rashes, carbuncles, and other similar problems. It can be used to even treat viral infections of the respiratory system, including bronchitis. It can also be effective in fighting other viral infections which may include flu, mumps, coughs, colds, and measles.
2.May Prevent Viral Infections
This essential oil can help to fight and protect against viral infections which may cause the common cold, mumps, measles, pox, and similar diseases.
3.Can Relieve Toothaches
As it can be used as an astringent, lime essential oil may also help in relieving toothaches, strengthening the grip of gums on the teeth, and may protect them from falling out. It can also tighten loose muscles and may give a feeling of firmness, fitness, and youth. This property might also be used to cure diarrhea. The final important benefit of astringents is their plausible ability to stop hemorrhaging by contracting blood vessels.
4.May Increase Appetite
The very smell of lime oil is mouthwatering. In small doses, it can serve as an appetizer or an aperitif. It can also activate the secretion of digestive juices into the stomach before you even start eating and may increase your hunger and appetite.
5.Can Treat Bacterial Infections
Lime essential oil is a good bactericide. It can be used in the treatment of food poisoning, diarrhea, typhoid, and cholera, all of which are caused by bacteria. Furthermore, it might cure internal bacterial infections like those in the colon, stomach, intestines, urinary tract, and perhaps as well as external infections on the skin, ears, eyes, and in wounds.
6.Potentially Effective Disinfectant
Perhaps, lime oil is also known for its disinfectant properties. If added to food, it may protect it from getting spoiled through infection by microbes. When consumed, it can cure the microbial infections in the colon, urinary tract, kidneys, and genitals. When applied externally, it may protect the skin and wounds from infections and might help them heal quickly. It can also be used in a diluted state for applying on the scalp. This can strengthen the hair and might protect it from various infections which may include lice.
7.May Reduce Fever
Fever is just a symptom that shows the immune system of our body is fighting against infections or various unwanted substances. Thus, fever almost always accompanies infections, such as colds, viral infections, bacterial infections and infections on wounds, liver malfunctions, pox, boils, allergies, and arthritis. Lime essential oil, since it can be a potentially antiallergenic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antitussive, cicatrizant, fungicidal and antiseptic substance, might help cure the cause of fever and maybe even eventually reduce it, thereby acting as a possible febrifuge.
8.Can Promote Blood Coagulation
An agent that can stop bleeding, either by promoting the coagulation of blood or by means of contracting the blood vessels, is considered a hemostatic. Lime oil can be considered a hemostatic, by virtue of its potentially astringent properties, which can help to reduce hemorrhaging by contracting the blood vessels.
9.May Restore Health
This oil can serve as a restorative by possibly restoring health and strength to organ systems throughout the body. This can be quite similar to the effect of a tonic and can be very good for those who are recovering from extended bouts of illness or injury.
10.Might Prevent Signs of Aging
Lime essential oil can tone up muscles, tissues, and skin as well as the various systems that function in the body, which may include the respiratory, circulatory, nervous, digestive, and excretory systems. This tonic effect can help to retain youth, perhaps for a long time, and may prevent the appearance of aging symptoms which may include hair loss, wrinkles, age spots, and muscle weakness.
11.Other Benefits
Apart from having the medicinal properties discussed above, it can act as an antidepressant and antiarthritic substance. It can reduce pain in the muscles and joints and is a very good antioxidant.

Lime Essential Oil Uses
The Lime Essential Oil’s active chemical components contribute to its reputed benefits of being invigorating, cleansing, and purifying oil. These constituents make it ideal for use in cosmetics, aromatherapy, massage, and home cleaning products to purify the air as well as surfaces. These healing benefits can be attributed to the oil’s anti-inflammatory, astringent, analgesic, stimulant, antiseptic, soothing, energizing, and balancing activities, among other valuable properties.
1. Lift the Mood
Lime is a bright and happy essential oil, so wonderful to pop in your diffuser when you are feeling stressed or agitated. It refreshes the emotions so that decisions and feelings can be explored constructively. Diffusing a few drops of Lime Essential Oil is great early in the morning to create a positive atmosphere for the day ahead, helping to increase energy and eliminate negative thinking.
2. Coughs and Colds
Lime is commonly cited in aromatherapy as having antiseptic, antibacterial, antiviral and antimicrobial properties. Blend Lime Essential Oil with other known immunity boosting oils, such as Kunzea, Eucalyptus, Lemon Myrtle, and Nerolina, to help bring relief during winter and clear clogged airways. DIY Chest Rub: Combine 10 drops x Kunzea and 10 drops x Lime in 50ml of base oil of choice. Apply and rub into the chest or back.
3. Detoxification
Lime is a mild detoxifier, and I often use it as part of massage therapy when treating cellulite and fluid retention. Blending Lime and Grapefruit Oil in a carrier oil makes an effective massage blend for cleansing and detoxification. DIY Massage Blend: Combine 10 drops x Lime and 10 drops x Grapefruit in 50ml of Jojoba Oil. Apply and massage into the skin to aid detoxification and cellulite.
4. Skincare and Acne
Lime oil can act as a natural astringent on the skin, where it is reputed to help clear oily skin. It is also used for cleansing the skin of blemishes and its antibacterial property may aid in the treatment of acne. Mixing a drop in with your shampoo and rinsing as normal can also help ease a dry, itchy scalp. As with any citrus oils on the skin, always make sure to dilute them before applying, and avoid sun exposure for at least 24 hours.
5. Air Freshener
Lime is such a beautifully refreshing and clean scent. You can create that happy vibrant clean atmosphere by either placing 2-3 drops into your diffuser, or place a couple of drops on a tissue and place inside the vacuum cleaner. As air is sucked into the dust bag, the fragrance of the oil is dispersed through the house while you clean.
6. Perfumery
Lime has a unique aromatic profile that makes it popular in perfumery. It is a citrus note with a sweeter and dryer profile, and more zing, than the traditional lemon scent. It blends well with Neroli, Clary Sage, Tasmanian Lavender, and Lavender. To make your own home roll on perfume, add no more than 10-12 drops total of essential oils to a 10ml roll on bottle. Fill the roller bottle with a carrier oil of choice (such as jojoba oil), pop the lid on and shake to combine. Apply to your pulse points, remembering to shake the bottle before each use.
