Essential Oils
Fragrances:
How to use the essential oils and/or fragrances to control appetite Choose three or more essential oils to use through out your day. Make sure that you carry them on you or keep them close by. The more you use them; the more effective they will be. Each day change the oils you used previously with three new ones. When you find you are tempted, you feel hungry, or beginning to eat a meal, just open the bottle and take at least three whiffs in each nostril. Breath as deeply as you can especially with the one nostril that is partially closed. Put the cap back on. You do not want to diffuse or use in the space constantly as you become used to the smell and it is not as effective. The goal here is not to eat, but to eat when you want and how much you want easily and comfortably. Caution People with asthma or migraine headaches may find that sniffing a variety of smells can aggravate their conditions so they need to be very careful. Toxicity of the liver has been reported when people use extreme amounts of oil. Essential oils are not water-soluble. The liver must break them down the oil into a more soluble form by the use of enzymes. If the oil is introduced into the body at a rate faster than the liver can convert it, toxicity can result. Primarily this has been noted in skin application, but it is worth noting so that one is respectful in using the oils. Inhaling as instructed here should not cause a problem.
