Clove Oil is a powerful oil that is antibacterial, antiseptic and analgesic, making it a good oil for the prevention of infections. Use it to disinfect surfaces and in aromatherapy lamps to help disinfect rooms. Clove oil is very strong and can cause irritation if used in it's pure form. It is best never to use it undiluted on the skin. Using clove oil topically spreads warmth and numbs pain but first, dilute your therapeutic-grade essential oil with a vegetable oil such as olive oil...one drop of therapeutic-grade essential oil added to four ounces of vegetable oil.
Cloves are also used to treat colds, dental abscesses, gum disease, earache and arthritis pain. Oil of cloves kills bacteria that can cause food poisoning, and is used in treating viral infections. Clove oil also has antimicrobial and antifungal uses and can be used for acne, warts and scars.
Clove oil also serves as an excellent stress reliever. It has a stimulating effect on the mind and removes mental exhaustion and fatigue. It also induces sleep and is helpful if you suffer from insomnia.
Have A Headache? Clove oil when mixed with salt (and the vegetable oil), and applied on the forehead, gives a cooling effect and helps in getting relief from headaches.
Clove oil for toothpain...rub a little clove oil directly on where it hurts - you can use a cotton swab, or ball for this - don't swallow the oil. The use of Clove Oil has been passed down generation to generation and has come to the rescue of many who could not get a timely dentist appointment.
NOTE: Clove oil should not be given to infants or children younger than six because of the possibility of stomach upset. When taken internally, it should be diluted, with one drop of therapeutic-grade essential oil added to four ounces of vegetable oil before adding it to a capsule, the same dilution used when applying clove oil to the skin.
Women who are pregnant should consult with a doctor before using clove oil. For others, clove oil is classified as a "hot oil", particularly in it's undiluted form. People with kidney or liver problems, or who have bleeding disorders or take blood thinners, should not use clove oil.
Always wash your hands thoroughly before and after the use of therapeutic-grade essential oils. Also avoid contact with your eyes.
