  • While essential oils do not necessarily "expire" in the same way that food does, they can degrade over time, losing their potency and therapeutic benefits. They can still be used to diffuse in your diffuser or humidifier.

    Vetiver (Vetiveria zizanoides) has a heavy, earthy fragrance similar to patchouli with a touch of lemon. Vetiver oil is psychologically grounding, calming, and stabilizing. One of the oils that is highest in sesquiterpenes, vetiver was studied by Dr. Terry Friedmann for improving children's behavior. Vetiver may help when coping with stress and to recover from emotional trauma and shock. Vetiver has an approximate ORAC of 742,792 (TE/L).
