How the Ingredients in the Parasympathetic Blend Work

By Jodi Cohen

A pile of cloves and limes.

Ingredients in Parasympathetic Oil

Vibrant Blue Oils Parasympathetic® blend is formulated from a synergistic combination of Clove and Lime. Learn more about the ingredients in Parasympathetic Oil.

Clove oil is highly stimulatory can be used to help trigger the parasympathetic state of the nervous system (Read more about the Parasympathetic state here), especially when combined with Lime oil which has super small molecules.  The combination of these two oils creates a blend that is super stimulatory and very easily accessible through the skin and olfactory channels.  In addition, these oils carry other healing properties.

 

Clove Essential Oil

For example, clove oil has long been used in the mouth to dull dental pain and heal infections.  Clove is a powerful anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal agent.  In fact, studies show that it is effective in managing yeast imbalances of the mouth. It also slows tooth decalcification, or dental erosion, may help to purify blood, keeping unwanted viral invaders at bay, and contains an astounding amount of antioxidants.

This makes clove an especially powerful tool for helping to heal vagus nerve toxicity that can result from dental toxins (Read more about vagus nerve toxicity here).

Finally, clove oil can help balance blood pressure.  Clove oil is known to help ease feelings of stress and uneasiness and to lower elevated blood pressure associated with stress.  Similarly when applied to the vagus nerve (back of the ear over the mastoid bone), Parasympathetic® oil can trigger the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine to actually slow hear rate (Read more about how Parasympathetic can support heart health)

 

Lime Essential Oil

Lime, along with other citrus oils, is known for relieving stress, anxiety, depression and nervousness.  For example, recent research found that citrus oils, like Lime, have been clinically proven to normalize “neuroendocrine hormone levels and immune function,” and were found to be “more effective than antidepressants.”

Like clove oil, research shows that lime essential oils is extremely effective at fighting oral bacteria.  In fact, research found that a combination of lime and garlic proved more effective than fluoride at fighting cavities.

Research also shows that the limonene found in citrus essential oils is known to stimulate the production of glutathione, an antioxidant known to protect you against inflammation and reduce our chances of developing autoimmunity.

Glutathione helps regulates our immune system and helps tissues recover from damage.  For example, glutathione helps support the regeneration of the blood-brain barrier and the intestinal barrier, and serves as a natural chelator that can bind to environmental toxins like heavy metals, pesticides, mold toxins, and other pollutants, which may trigger autoimmunity.  Glutathione also helps protect cell mitochondria, enhance tissue recovery, and modulate the immune system

Glutathione levels can decline with aging, and maintaining adequate levels of glutathione is critical to maintaining health helps buffer the body’s cells from stress and disease.  In fact, studies show a direct correlation between a breakdown in the glutathione system and autoimmune disease.

Unfortunately, most nutritional supplements of glutathione are not absorbed well and do not raise glutathione levels within the cells, so Lime oil’s ability to help stimulate the production of glutathione inside the cells contributes to the Parasympathetic® blend’s ability to prevent or reduce systemic inflammation in the gut and the brain.

 

To ensure optimal health, apply the Parasympathetic® oil on the vagus nerve (behind the earlobe on the mastoid bone).
