• Uses – Frankincense Oil has been used for thousands of years to treat a wide range of conditions including syphilis, rheumatism, respiratory and urinary tract infections, skin diseases, as well as digestive and nervous complaints. It is a powerful bile stimulant, but is seldom used internally in today’s world, though formerly it was in great repute. In many ancient writings and texts, it was often the prescribed “medicine of choice” for numerous ailments. For instance, Pliny mentions it should be taken internally as an antidote to hemlock and other poisons. The physician Avicenna (tenth century) recommends it as an antidote for “tumours, ulcers, vomiting, dysentery and fevers.” In China it is yet used today as the treatment of choice for leprosy. Externally applied, this is an excellent choice for skin repair and rejuvenation due to its powerful anti-oxidant characteristics. Age and liver spots have been known to fade and parched, wrinkled, and leathery skin often becomes smooth and supple. Sadly, its principal use now in the West is in the manufacture of incense and pastilles, but again, this is the low quality Somali product. The inhalation of steam laden with the volatile (non-diluted) portion of the true Omani oil is reported to relieve asthma, bronchitis and laryngitis, often in just one treatment.
• Application – Most commonly used externally directly on the skin, as it may well be the most powerful, all-natural anti-oxidant on the planet. Apply to warts, skin cancers, and all dry and cracking problem areas, (elbows, heels, sides of feet etc.) May be helpful in treating serious skin problems such as eczema, psoriasis, and even leprosy. Put 5 drops in an 8 oz. glass of distilled water or use our new liquicaps for internal use. Historically shown to be effective when taken internally in relieving the effects of poisoning, but may also be helpful in providing relief from ulcers and other stomach ailments. Dilute 50/50 with distilled water for use in an atomizer for possible relief of lung ailments. The royalty of the ancient Middle East also used it as a perfume, applying it on the forehead and behind the ears. It was commonly given to newborn infants on the cord, on the skin, and internally for healthy bowels. In the Middle East 2,000 years ago, it was customary to provide royal gifts to the family of a newly born child – Frankincense to provide for the infant’s good health, Myrrh for the Mother to ease post-partem symptoms, and Gold to the father to help with expenses.
