DIGEST ZEN

With those holidays upon us, here's the oil to have on hand before the overindulging begins. It's fabulous for belly aches, gas, bloating, pretty much any stomach issues really. I will apply topically to my belly and take internal--so a few drops under the tongue. Otherwise, you can always encapsulate (a few drops in empty gelatin capsule), or a few drops added to water.  For your little ones, apply 1-2 drops on the soles of the feet (can be mixed with olive oil or a carrier oil) or 1 drop in the belly button...again use caution and mix with a carrier oil, so it won't be too spicy for sensitive areas. 

Can be applied to animal paws for parasites. My pup gets essential oils in her water. Usually lemon, peppermint or a blend, and I use a smaller drop from a 5/8 dram bottle or a toothpick in the oil and then swirled in water. 

Properties:  Oils in this blend are known for their abilities in balancing the digestive system and in soothing many ailments associated with the digestive system. Anti-inflammatory, Anti-parasitic, antispasmodic.

Caution: not for those with epilepsy and use with caution during pregnancy.
Body System Affected: Balancing and strengthen to the digestive system
