1 Chemistry 101: How Do Essential Oils Work?

2 How are essential oils scientifically PubMed.gov validated? Peer-reviewed studies Ensure studies are comparing apples-toapples A new field for modern science

3 Chemistry Chemistry is a science that deals with the structure and properties of substances and with the changes that they go through: the way a substance changes and reacts with other substances. Study of exchanges of compounds on a molecular level.

4 Chemistry Molecules - an electrically neutral group of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds Water molecules hydrogen and oxygen atoms Salt molecules sodium and chlorine atoms

5 What are Essential Oils? Volatile substance of plant Contains the natural characteristics and smell of the plant Rise quickly into the air and generate an aroma One drop contains hundreds of beneficial compounds Molecular structure

6 Four grades of essential oils Therapeutic grade Optimal growing and distillation Young Living Standard Organic May or may not contain optimal compounds Plants still can have pesticides/herbicides Fragrance-grade Altered, extended Aroma only, no medicinal value Synthetic (nature-identical) Created in a laboratory

7 Essential Oils Consist of Molecules All contain hydrogen and carbon aka hydrocarbons Some also contain oxygen A few contain nitrogen or sulfur

8 Essential Oils Do Not Contain Proteins Vitamins Hormones Enzymes?

9 Molecules Removed from the Plant Steam distilled Primary of process by YL Cold Pressing (citrus and fatty oils) Weight presses oil from the plant material Resin Tapping Resin seeps from plant and is then steam distilled Absolute oil extraction (Jasmine & Neroli) Only for delicate material Solvent pulls oil out without compromising oil Steam extraction to remove solvent

10 Steam Distillation Low pressure is the best process for full therapeutic effects. If membrane is fractured while the oil is being released, the molecular structure of is altered and it loses much of its therapeutic effect. The highest therapeutic effect is from the first distillation.

13 250 lb of lavender to yield 1lb of oil. 2,000 pounds of cypress for 1 lb essential oil. 6,000 lbs of Melissa for 1 lb of essential oil 5,000 rose petals for a 5ml bottle of Rose oil.

15 250 lb of lavender to yield 1lb of oil. 2,000 pounds of cypress for 1 lb essential oil. 6,000 lbs of Melissa for 1 lb of essential oil 5,000 rose petals for a 5ml bottle of Rose oil.

16 250 lb of lavender to yield 1lb of oil. 2,000 pounds of cypress for 1 lb essential oil. 6,000 lbs of Melissa for 1 lb of essential oil 5,000 rose petals for a 5ml bottle of Rose oil.

17 Molecules Removed from the Plant Steam distilled Must have a low molecular weight or atomic mass unit (AMU) 500 AMU or lighter Lightweight particles float on steam Protein molecules (allergens) are too heavy to be extracted.

18 24 hours, 245, & 5lbs of pressure = all 280 active constituents & properties, full therapeutic effects. < 22 hours = of the primary therapeutic constituents will be missing. 26 hours = 0 constituents Most distills of cypress are only 1 hour 15 mins. Although the oil is easily sold and marketed, it is very poor quality. Source is imperative when dealing with essential oils.

19 Biochemistry 100 trillion cells of your body Each cell has about 6 gigabytes of memory Your body is a supercomputer Each cell contains a blueprint of the entire body Communication in our bodies Electrical, chemical, and intercellular

20 THE PMS of Oils Actually PSM A specific oil may have one or two of these three classes of compounds as its predominant chemistry Some contain all three types

21 Phenylpropanoids clean the receptor sites allowing the proper transfer of hormones, peptides, neurotransmitters, steroids, and other intracellular messengers. PHENYLPROPANOIDS Phenylpropanoids are compounds of carbon-ring molecules incorporating one isoprene unit. They are also called hemiterpenes.

22

23 Sesquiterpene molecules deliver oxygen molecules to cells, like hemoglobin does in the blood. They can also erase or deprogram miswritten codes in cellular memory. SESQUITERPENES Sesquiterpenes are a class of terpenes that consist of three isoprene units and have the molecular formula C₁₅H₂₄. Sesquiterpenes may be acyclic or contain rings.

24 Monoterpenes can reprogram miswritten information in the cellular memory. MONOTERPENES Monoterpenes are compounds of two isoprene units and have the molecular formula C 10 H 16.

25 Entrance into the Body 500 AMU or lighter threshold for blood-brain barrier Lipid-soluble Penetrate epidermis quickly Inhalation, but not just aromatic

26 Limbic System

27 Entrance into the Body 500 AMU or lighter threshold for blood-brain barrier Lipid-soluble Penetrate epidermis quickly Inhalation, but not just aromatic Internal absorption Application based on desired effect

28 Chemotypes The same seeds planted in different geographic locations will result in different chemical make-ups. Described by genus and species plus the region where they are grown Some may produce more oil at certain times of the day or year

29 Key Considerations Chemical composition is predetermined by genetic codes Genus and species are required to identify the plant Chemotypes are environmentally dependent Harvesting time of day, year, etc. impacts oil composition
