Description

Orange essential oil is extracted from the rind of the sweet orange, Citrus sinensis. This is done by a method called cold pressing, which uses pressure to squeeze the oils from the rind. Sometimes, the leaves and flowers from the orange plant can be used as well.

Research has shown that some essential oils may have specific health benefits.

Orange essential oil has a variety of uses. These can include applications to:

– lift your mood or reduce stress
– treat skin conditions such as acne
– reduce pain or inflammation
– relieve stomach upset
– use as a natural household cleaner
– add a pleasant scent to a room or to products like perfumes and cleaners
– give flavor to a variety of foods and beverages

Although orange essential oil has many uses, it’s important to remember that many of them are supported through anecdotal evidence. This means that the benefits are related to personal experience instead of being backed by scientific research.

Anxiety and depression
Aromatherapy with orange essential oil appears to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.

In a 2013 “Source (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3732892/)”, it was found that aromatherapy with orange essential oil reduced the pulse rate and stress hormone levels in children undergoing a dental procedure.

Additionally, in a 2015 “Source (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4700683/)”, women in labor reported less anxiety after inhaling orange essential oil than women in the control group who inhaled distilled water.

A 2019 “Source (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30905156/)” on mice looked at the inhalation of orange essential oils and its potential effect on depression. The researchers found that the mice who inhaled the orange essential oil displayed fewer depression-like behaviours.
