RE: Lavender Essential Oil for Better Sleep

in #life7 years ago

You need to be careful in how much lavender that you use, especially for young boys.

There are cases where excess use of lavender essential oil was causing boys to start budding breasts because of its estrogenic qualities.

Oh wow, I wasn't aware of that. Thank you for your comment.

I came across information while I was reading about lavender oil that said it's not healthy to ingest, and should only be used topically or for aromatherapy.

I am not too worried about aromatherapy but too much topically can still cause hormonal problems.
