What are Essential Oils with Monoterpenes and how can they benefit your health?

We have all heard the term essential oils. But what are they made of? Most of you will glaze over if I start bringing up chemistry terms but I want to give you some basic information about the different classifications of essential oils and why each one has different therapeutic benefits from another one. Essential oil constituents are built on a framework of isoprene units. Isoprene units consist of carbon and hydrogen atoms. Most of the compounds in essential oils consist of two to four isoprene units. The simplest and most common class of terpenes found in essential oils is the monoterpene.

What are the therapeutic benefits of essential oils with monoterpenes?

These essential oils inhibit the accumulation of toxins and help discharge existing toxins. They are anti inflammatory, antibacterial, and soothing to irritated tissues. They can be used as an insect repellent and have cancer preventative properties.

Which essential oils can be classified as monoterpenes?

Citrus oils, Frankincense, Ginger, Thyme, Cypress, White Fir, Black Pepper, Marjoram, Melaleuca
