Oil of the Week – Lime
Lime oil is a vibrant citrus oil that has a clean, energizing aroma and can be used for cleaning, cooking, and for many various health issues. Once you use pure lime oil, it will soon become a major staple in your daily essential oil routine.
Here are my favorite 8 Favorite Ways to Use Lime oil:
- For extra antioxidants and immune support – add a drop of lime to your morning smoothie.
- Spring fling diffuser blend (this blend will freshen the air and help you feel more relaxed) – Place 3 drops Lime, 3 drops Lavender and 2 drops Ylang Ylang in a diffuser.
- To calm anxiety or to help you sleep – Rub 1 drop of lime on the spine or the back of the neck as needed.
- If your digestive system is too slow – Rub 1 drop of Lime oil and 1 drop of DigestZen oil over the abdomen daily.
- All-natural cleaning solution – Place 2 drops of lime oil on a cotton pad and use to remove sticky residue and grease spots. Or, combine 1 cup water, 1/2 cup organic vinegar and 10 drops lime oil in a glass spray bottle and use to clean the entire house.
- For colds, coughs, sore throat and chest congestion – Place 1-2 drops to a bowl of steaming water and inhale it. You can also mix a few drops with fractionated coconut oil oil, then rub it on your neck and chest.
- To Relieve Joint Pain – Rub 1 drop of lime oil and 1 drop of Deep Blue over the area of concern.
- To flavor your food or beverages – Add 1 drop of lime oil to guacamole, salsa or pico de Gallo, margaritas, fresh lemonade, salad dressings, or marinades. A bottle of lime oil in the spring and summer is so helpful in the kitchen!
