Essential Oils and COVID-19: What You Need to Know

When it comes to COVID-19, we’ll avoid a flashy headlines. We won't wasting your time with cure claims, because the truth is… We don’t have any. Here is the info we do have:

1. There is currently no clinical evidence that any essential oil CURES Covid-19.
While we would love for this NOT to be true, it’s just our current reality
.
2. There is currently no clinical evidence that any essential oil TREATS Covid-19

Yes, there is a distinction between "treating" and "curing". Many viruses do not have cures, but rather, you only treat the symptoms of the virus. No scientific studies have been done that prove you can treat this virus with oils.

Good news is, there are some oils that may be effective agains Influenza, which is in some ways, similar to Covid-19. Diffusing tea tree essential oil, patchouli, cinnamon bark and eucalyptus may be effective against Influenza because the vapors of those oils in in vitro studies do show to kill that virus in the air.

So… What CAN you do?.
Using essential oils to treat symptoms of Covid-19, when done so safely, is a great idea. If you’ve got a stuffy nose, try using our Inhale Breathing Blend, Exhale Expectorant Blend, or Relief Respiratory Rub, as these can help with congestion, coughs, and other respiratory related issues.

Wash your hands and clean your surfaces with our handmade soaps infused with essential oils and cleaners.

Finally, a symptom of this virus we all may be experiencing is stress & anxiety. Utilizing citrus oils, lavender, and others that you might use for meditation or to relax can be a great benefit to your mental health during these strange times.

Stay well, Jade Bloomers. To your Health, Healing, & Happiness.
