Lavender – and especially its essential lavender oil – is better and better understood through scientific research: It has been know for centuries for their beneficial and healthful properties. With recent scientific studies, the applications and full potential of lavender oil are finally being understood. Lavender oil is a complex mixture of phytochemicals with a high content of linalool and linalyl acetate. When taken orally doses of about 80 mg Lavender oil have a beneficial influence on general well-being and quality of life. Both sleep and morning vigor are significantly improved by lavender oil (1). Positive moods (lifely, happy, active, content…) measured with the BMIS (Brief Mood Introspection Scale) are increased already with low dose (2). Furthermore, lavender oil is a natural and safe ingredient (3).
