Turmeric Oil

Turmeric essential oils are associated with a number of health benefits for the skin and for the body. Turmeric is a perennial herbaceous plant that has been used for millennia in traditional medicine. Some of its primary traditional uses include easing stomach pains, reducing inflammation, restoring the kidneys and detoxifying the blood. Research has validated some of the traditional uses of turmeric, but not all. In research studies, turmeric extract has demonstrated anticancer, antidiabetic, heart-protective, antiarthritis, antibacterial and several other mechanisms of action. Turmeric essential oils can be used topically – or in aromatherapy candles, vaporizers, bath salts and more. Topical absorption and inhalation can both introduce turmeric molecules into the system.
