Bergamot oil has a soothing scent, spicy taste, and a wide range of potential uses and possible benefits. It is also a common cosmetic ingredient and a flavour added to Earl Gray tea.
You can enjoy the healing benefits of essential oils in several ways – inhalations, baths and massages. To inhale the fragrance, just put a drop or two of whichever essential oil you’re using on a handkerchief, or put a few drops on a light-bulb ring, or use a vaporizer or diffuser.
Essential oils are highly concentrated and must not be taken internally. Some people have an allergic reaction to oils, soo take care when trying out a new one. Also, because essential oils can pass through the skin into the bloodstream, they should not be used by pregnant women.
Bergamot oil is extracted from the rinds of citrus fruit (Citrus bergamia) that grow on bergamot orange trees. Also known as the ‘sour’ orange. The bergamot tree likely originated in Southeast Asia. It first came to prominence and received its name from the town of Bergamo in southern Italy, and it’s currently grown in many parts of the world.
