I recently went to a presentation on pure essential oils-- sponsored by someone whom I trust. The last post I could find here on the subject of oils was in 2009. I have since listened to a webcast of a doctor, which included testimonials from individuals with MS. I certainly will not stop my FDA approved therapies in favor of essential oils, but I am interested to find out more about oils such as Peppermint, Frankincense, Sandalwood.... The company suggests taking some of these oils orally as well as massaging them into the skin. (They claim that their brand is pure enough to take orally, but recommend AGAINST taking any other brand that way.)
I realize the scientific studies on alternative therapies are scarce, but I also know that the drug companies are the ones with the money to conduct studies. Producers of natural medicine often lack the funding to do so.
I would appreciate any and all insight!
