Can these oils be consumed?

Hi Nikki . Well , although these oils are 100% pure and certainly there is nothing about them to harm you , they are also certainly not created as a food flavoring . They work as a fabulous ingredient in all of my home made skin and hair care products .

I don't think they can but if you look them up on Wikipedia or edensgarden.com, you should find a definitive answer :)

Don't think you'd want to do that. Doesn't smell to good and it might burn a little though as an oil, I don, think it would cause you harm. But do not swallow any.

Yes you can, but sparingly. The oil is quite thick and heavy so a tiny bit goes a long way.

Not Sure!!! Unless you plan on eating it. I would stay with The product oil Thats Made for it? Common sense is your best Answer.

We put "for external use" on our labeling for our own liability. This is very common practice in the US and many other companies that sell therapeutic grade oils, also put this on their labeling. Essential oils are highly concentrated and have the capacity to cause serious damage if used internally without the necessary expertise required in administering it. This is supported by the International Federation of Aromatherapists that does not recommend ingestion of essential oils unless under the supervision of a Medical Doctor who is also qualified in clinical aromatherapy. That being said, many of our loyal customers use our oils internally since they are the highest quality available, but we leave this up to the customer.

No, it doesnt say on bottle where these oils can be ingested. There is a little pamplet that lists many uses for these oils however i.e., to freshen things (carpet). I use the oils in boiling water over the stove in a pot to freshen the air occasionally. Also you can dip some of the oils on a cotton ball and place in a vacuum cleaner for freshness. The only two oils I ingest personally are peppermint oil to freshen stale gum (heard it cools scalp for menopausal women too) and cinnamon oil. Other than that, I'd use disgresion if considering ingesting as some oils smell great but aren't palitable. Hope this helps! No, it doesnt say on bottle where these oils can be ingested.

I bought these as a gift, so I haven't used them. However, they are oils not essences, so I don't think you can.

yes! if you visit the now food web site they state that the oils are edible and list the ones that are not. This oil is my favorite from all of their oils (and hope they make an organic one soon!) I add it to water every day and it tastes great.

You can't ingest pure peppermint essential oil to begin with without endangering your body's organs . . . . if you want to ingest peppermint, you need the food flavoring, not an essential oil. The purpose of this item is for rodent control . . . . not ingesting.

These Vit. K were very small. So, yes you can squeeze the oils out but I'm not sure how much you would waste in the process.

Are essential oils FDA approved? I don't know . . . It's not intended to ingest as a food or drug anyway.

Probably could but wouldn't it be better to use something that is not made from oil, like a vegetable oil or something that is food grade? Esspecially if there is a chance of digesting it,

I dont see why not. You mentioned just a gargle so that should be perfectly fine. Its very good tea tree oil. I have enjoyed using it.

The leaves are edible and nutritious. Yes, the leaves can be consumed too.Best,NathanEatGreenTea

I'm sure you could but it's kind of dry. I've used them in kombucha to flavor it. But not exactly sure if I'd grab a handful to munch on.

I think that Young Living are a high enough grade to ingest, but I would definitely consult a professional before ingesting oils, especially if you are on any sort of medication. Essential oils acts just like a drug in your system, so you'd take the same precautions with them as with prescription drugs. The good news is that EOs are powerful and work (!!!), the bad news is that ingesting can be harmful if not done right. I use the oils on my skin and in my diffuser like nobody's business. I feel like I can heal almost anything with the right oil as long as it is a high grade oil.

I have read that canola oil is can be used or other light weight oil like mineral oil. No veg oil.
