Clove essential oil

Description

Clove Bud | Eugenia caryophyllata

Clove essential oil, traditionally used in dental products, candies, and gum for its flavor and mouth-cleansing properties, offers numerous benefits. Preclinical research suggests that CPTG® Clove essential oil may support healthy digestive, nervous, and cardiovascular systems when ingested, thanks to its key constituents, eugenol and β-caryophyllene.* It may also promote a healthy inflammatory response and aid in managing oxidative stress.*

Why include Clove Essential oil in your collection? The primary chemical component of Clove Bud essential oil, eugenol, provides a stimulating and energizing aroma while contributing to its well-known cleansing properties. Unlike other eugenol-rich oils, such as Cinnamon Bark essential oil, Clove Bud essential oil is particularly suitable for oral use, making it ideal for cleansing and freshening the mouth, teeth, and gums.

When diluted with Fractionated Coconut Oil, it can be used for invigorating massages. Clove’s warm, woody, spicy, and sweet aroma is intensified when diffused or used in cooking, especially when blended with Cinnamon Bark during winter festivities.
