| Bergamot - "Nature's Prozc" |
Bergamot, Citrus bergamia
Research has verified Bergamot’s capacity for restoring emotional balance and, in the process, enhancing the efficacy of treatments for depression and anxiety. Soothing and grounding to those who are anxious or overly stimulated, yet uplifting and stabilizing to individuals suffering from depression.
Bergamot can be used to generate a fresh, delightfully citrus flavor in food. Produces a marvelous synergy when used sparingly in green tea to create a pleasant anti-inflammatory and detoxifying beverage. This can also be helpful in easing digestive issues such as gastritis, colitis, constipation, and ulcers as Bergamot is a potent stimulant to the stomach, spleen, and liver.
Its antiseptic and diuretic qualities make Bergamot a highly beneficial aid with urinary tract infections and cystitis. These same qualities make it helpful with many types of skin problems including prematurely aging skin, oily skin and hair, acne, cold sores, skin infections, eczema, psoriasis, itching, and insect bites. Bergamot can be used as a mouthwash or gargle to ease mouth ulcers and infection (including sore throat), sweeten bad breath, and reduce inflammation.
With a pleasant and uplifting aroma, coupled with its remarkable ability to soothe the emotions, it’s not surprising that Bergamot has earned the title ”Nature’s Prozac” in the aromatherapy world.
