8. CAUTION: |
|
|
LD50 of most oils or their main components are 0.5 – 10 g/kg (oral or dermal test). The internal use of essential oils should be fully avoided during pregnancy; some can be abortifacients in dose 0.5 – 10 ml. Because of their concentrated nature, essential oils should not be applied directly to the skin in their undiluted or "neat" form. Some can cause severe irritation or provoke an allergic reaction. Instead, essential oil should be applied with a plants oils or other fats (carrier oil), such as olive, hazelnut, or any other "soft" oil. Common ratio of oil disbursed in carrier oil is 0.5 – 5% and depends on its purpose. Some essential oils are photo-sensitizers, increasing the skin's reaction to sunlight and making it more likely to burn. If you have sensitive skin, epilepsy, heart or kidney problems, or any serious medical condition, do not use essential oils unless advised by a physician or medical professional that it is safe. Certain essential oils can be toxic to domestic animals – especially cats. |
