The scientific name of bergamot is Citrus aurantium var. or Citrus bergamia. It is a tropical plant but thrives in Europe as well. Its powerful aroma makes it a popular component in many perfumes, and it is often used as the “top note”. It is derived from cold compression, opposed to the steam distillation of many other essential oils. One of the most common applications that you may not be aware of is its use in black tea preparation. The inclusion of bergamot essential oil in regular black tea is then given a different name – Earl Gray!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chemical composition of this oil includes alpha-pinene, alpha bergapten, alpha-terpineol, limonene, linalool, linalyl acetate, nerol, neryl acetate, beta bisabolene, geraniol, geraniol acetate, and myrcene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest  Product and Pure Product\u003cbr\u003eNatural and\/ Or Made with Organic Ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLowest and cheapest prices with Best Quality, Best Selling top rank product.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eHealth Benefits Of Bergamot Essential Oil\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBergamot oil has a very sweet smell and a number of medicinal and industrial uses due to its properties.

They create a feeling of freshness, joy, and energy in cases of sadness and depression by improving the circulation of the blood. They also stimulate hormonal secretions, thereby helping to maintain proper metabolic rates. This stimulating effect also increases the secretion of digestive juices, bile, and insulin. This aids in digestion, proper absorption of nutrients, assimilation, and decomposition of sugar and the resultant lowering of blood sugar. The hormonal impact of this essential oil is part of the reason that it is so powerful on these neurological and mental conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrevents Infections\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCertain components of the essential oil of bergamot are antibiotic and disinfectant in nature. They inhibit the growth of germs, virus, and fungi. They also effectively prohibit infections, including those of the skin. If regularly used with bathing water or in soaps (it is already used extensively in skin care soaps), the skin and hair remain protected from infections and become shiny. It also cures infections in the colon, intestines, urinary tract, and kidneys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReduces Pain\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBergamot essential oil reduces the feeling of pain in the body. It stimulates secretion of certain hormones which lessen the sensitivity of nerves to pain. Therefore, it is very helpful in case of headaches, sprains, muscle aches or any other symptoms\/ailments which require a heavy dosage of analgesic pills. This means that you can avoid the dangerous side effects of many over the counter pain medicines, which often have adverse side effects and can damage your liver and kidneys, as well as cause blood thinning and insomnia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelaxant \u0026amp; Sedative\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe flavonoids present in bergamot oil are very good relaxants as well. They soothe the nerves and reduce nervous tension, anxiety, and stress, all of which can help cure ailments associated with stress such as high blood pressure, insomnia, and depression. They can also stimulate the activity of certain hormones in the body, which induce feelings of relaxation and sedation, like dopamine and serotonin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAids in Digestion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs discussed above, bergamot essential oil activates and increases secretions of the digestive acids, enzymes, and bile facilitating digestion. It also synchronizes and regulates the peristaltic motion of the intestines and in this way, it quickens the digestive process and reduces strain to the intestinal tract. In this way, this essential oil can reduce constipation, make bowel movements regular, and prevent gastrointestinal complications like colorectal cancer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkin Care\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis property of bergamot oil is the reason behind its extensive use in cosmetics and skin care products such as beauty soaps, creams, and lotions. Cicatrisant in bergamot helps heal scars and other marks on the skin. It also makes the distribution of pigments and melanin uniform, resulting in the fading away of marks and an even, attractive skin tone. This essential oil is commonly used to eliminate the unsightly effects of acne, which can leave noticeable scars on the affected areas for many years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEliminates Bad Odor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis property of bergamot oil is popular among the younger generation who is always trying new deodorants, searching for something refreshing and natural. This essential oil is an excellent deodorant. The refreshing aroma and disinfectant properties of bergamot oil inhibit the growth of germs causing body-odor. This makes it an effective and attractive delivery system as a deodorant. Citrus smells are very powerful and can overcome or eliminate many other odors, which is why this oil is also used in room fresheners and sprays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReduces Fever\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA febrifuge is a substance that reduces fever and lowers body temperature. Bergamot is a good febrifuge for a number of reasons. First of all, as an antibiotic, it fights infections that arise from viruses, bacteria, and protozoa that cause fever, including influenza (virus), malaria (protozoa), and typhoid (typhus bacteria). Secondly, it stimulates the metabolic system and gland secretions, thereby providing a feeling of warmth and resulting in additional secretion (perspiration or sweat) from the eccrine glands (sweat glands) and sebaceous (sebum) glands, thus reducing body temperature. This can also reduce the toxicity of the body through perspiration, and clean out the glands and pores of any foreign toxins that can result in a variety of skin conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKills Germs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt kills worms, and it is a subtle and fragrant choice for children who have contracted worms. It can also be applied to unhealthy, infected teeth or used as a mouthwash to kill oral germs and protect teeth from the development of cavities. Intestinal worms can result in malnourishment and other serious deficiencies including various forms of anemia. Therefore, eliminating these worms, particularly in growing children, is a very important application of bergamot essential oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelieves Spasms\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt relaxes nerves and muscles, thereby giving quick relief for cramps, convulsions, and painful muscle contractions. This can also be important for people with chronic coughing, respiratory conditions or asthma, which is similar to a spasmodic reaction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeeds-up Healing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe same disinfectant and antibiotic properties of bergamot oil make it a good antiseptic agent too. It not only promotes fast healing of wounds, cracks in the skin and heels, ulcers, eczema, and itching but also protects wounds from becoming septic and developing deadly tetanus. It also treats and heals the effects of other infections and inhibits the formation of new ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBergamot essential oil is a tonic, which means that it tones up the respiratory, circulatory, digestive, excretory, and nervous system, as well as skin and muscles. It is also anti-congestive and is used in vaporizers to relieve congestion and respiratory problems, particularly during coughs and colds. It works as an expectorant to loosen up phlegm and mucus in the respiratory tracts and helps the body to eliminate it through natural avenues like sneezing and coughs, thereby eliminating some of the germs and toxins that caused the condition in the first place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough research has been limited on some of these issues, the respiratory and digestive effects of bergamot essential oil may be even more extensive than originally thought. Ongoing studies show that application of this essential oil may be able to eliminate the formation of gallstones and protect against colic, halitosis, bronchitis, and diphtheria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eWord of Caution\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBergamot oil must be protected from sunlight, because of bergapten, one of its components becomes poisonous if exposed to sunlight. That is why the oil should always be stored in dark bottles and dark places. Exposure to sunlight should even be avoided after it is applied to the skin, at least until it gets absorbed into your skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBergamot Essential Oil FAQs\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Bergamot?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBergamot is the name of a tree, which has the scientific name Citrus bergamia.
