Is your lavender oil edible? I've been told to purchase only the type of lavender oil that is edible.

No, it is not. I received an e-mail from the makers which indicated that their oil should not be taken internally.

Rosie, Our oil is 100% pure and steam distilled and it goes through an extensive testing method called GCMS. "The Essential Oils - The Complete Guide to the Use of Oils in Aromatherapy and Herbalism" talks about the use of Essential Oils Internally, "Due to the high concentration of essential oils (and the high toxicity of a handful of essences), it is not recommended that they be taken at home in this manner. The International Federation of Aromatherapists also advises against this method of application. However, since essential oils are readily absorbed through the skin, they can affect the internal organs and systems of the body by external use." There are very few benefits of taking and using Lavender oils internally. You benefit the most by using Lavender Oil topically and aromatically. If your main need in Lavender Oil is for internal use I suppose our brand is not for you. We stand behind our oil with a 100% satisfaction guarantee and we believe it is just as good if not better than any other!

There is no grading system for essential oils, therefore there is no such thing as food grade, perfume grade, or even therapeutic grade essential oils. Essential oils are not regulated by a governing body.

Seems so because there are no added ingredients. I checked the bag, it's just salt so it should be the same kind found in whole foods and such. But it's really super pink and in the bath a pink substance is left off. This salt seems edible, I'd just research if the pink pigment in the salt is edible. I'm sure it is though :)I would go with a brand from whole foods to be sure. Because, as the person below stated, it might have essential oils, mine doesn't have those... But I mean while foods has lots of Himalayan salt that you can use :)

I'm sorry but I don't know the answer to that. So far I have only used Tea Tree oil and lavender.

I have recently learned that a company can claim that it is 100% as long as 5% is true lavender oil. I find it hard to believe that you could get a full ounce for only $7 if it were straight from the plant.

Neither you just oil . I believe there was some instruction with. I purchased mine a couple of years ago and I use it every night with lavender oil.

Hello Aryn, Our lavender oil is not a 40/42 variety. Most 40/42 varieties are used when making soap due to it's powerful scent. Our lavender oil is used more for therapeutic purposes (applied topically or diffused). I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions! Erin Downs - Founder, Nuleo Essentials

I have been adding a few drops of essential oils to my Woolzies since I got them. I use the NOW Brand, because I think they are pure and smell the best, and they can be purchased off Amazon. Currently I am using Lavender for my sheets and towels, but am thinking of trying some new scents.

Most essential oils should NOT be ingested. When cooking or baking, use extracts, not oils. Essential oils are extremely concentrated and "natural" does not mean safe. You can cause severe issues when ingesting essential oils. There are a couple mlm essential oil companies that advocate ingestion, but this is HIGHLY frowned upon in the world of certified aromatherapists. In fact, it causes quite a bit of aggravation. Please please please seek the advice of a CERTIFIED aromatherapist, not a distributor of a mlm essential oil company. Ingestion can be very dangerous.

These are high quality oils from a great company. I'd use the oils to flavor natural tooth paste (something im spitting out ) but not to cook with and eat. You're better off getting dry lavender flowers and grinding them in a coffee grinder for baking or tea and a tiny bit goes a long way.

You are correct. There is no such thing as 100% pure vanilla essential oil. This article goes into grest detail about this: http://www.lgbotanicals.com/Vanilla-Pure-Essential-Oil--No-Such-Thing_b_27.html

Yes...and I have tried several brands of lavender and this is definitely the best! It is worth the extra cost.

No this is a furniture oil . I use it on the natural walnut furniture (end table, coffee table, dining room table and credenza) that my father and I made together in his woodworking shop...Definitely NOT EDIBLE.

As a user of this oil I can tell you its pure and wonderful, population lavender is the best and its from an elevation of 3,500 feet in France. Its amazing and the best I've used! Steam distillation

Before you go file your lawsuit and cry foul, I would encourage you look into the difference between a claim that something edible is organic and the claim that something inedible is organic. If memory serves, consumer reports also states that the FDA certifies ORGANIC FOOD ONLY, and any other organic claims are dubious at best. That would mean that fumigation would have no effect on any such claim of having an organic pillow.

I am not certain that lavender therapeutic is food safe. The best way to answer this question is to email the company. I have found they are helpful in answering questions.

I mix a little of the Lavendar Essential Oil with Almond Oil (use whatever oil you usually use). You could use just the lavender, but I think it would be used up very quickly and it's expensive. Experiment with small amounts and see what you like best.
