Vetiver Essential Oil has an earthy, woody scent characteristic of most essential oils derived from roots in the earth. It also has a rich, sweetly satisfying note that is both warm and slightly masculine. A recent study published in the Journal of Intercultural Ethnopharmacology also showed Vetiver essential oil to have particular promise for treating ADHD. The study showed that When the children inhaled the oil three times a day for 30 days they had improved brain wave patterns and behavior and did better in school. Research by the late Dr. Terry S. Friedmann, M. D., A.B.H.M., supports these assertions.
Not only is Vetiver proving useful in combating anxiety but it is an excellent tick and bug repellent. Some early testing is exploring the potential that the antioxidant levels in Vetiver have to mitigate the side effects of chemotherapy.
