Reservation:

Bergamot essential oil is phototoxic (very high risk); can be photocarcinogenic. Avoid sunlight for 24 hours after applying the bergamot essential oil mixture to your skin. This applies to bergamot, which contains bergapten. To avoid phototoxicity of unrectified essential oil, use an essential oil concentration of 0.4% or lower in the blend.

Old or oxidized bergamot essential oil should be avoided. Due to the limonene content of bergamot, it is very important that the essential oil is stored properly (in a dark container in the refrigerator or in a cool room away from sunlight and heat). When limonene is oxidized, it can become a dermal sensitizer.

Never heat an essential oil for diffusion! Use only a special diffuser for spraying essential oils.

Contraindication:

children up to 6 years old; pregnant, nursing

About bergamot essential oil

Bringing their advanced agricultural skills with them, the Arabs established large citrus plantations in Malta and Sicily in the early 10th century. They brought lemons, various oranges and other citrus fruits to these islands. The hybridization of the bitter orange and the Persian citron that created the bergamot orange became their special gift to the region and the West. The name Bergamot may also come from the now defunct Sicilian Arabic. Its oil has long since become the most classic of all cold-pressed citrus oils from the sun-drenched climates of Southern Italy. Without him, perfumery, aromatherapy and Earl Gray tea would not be what they are.

Bergamot oil has always been believed to be wonderfully relaxing, refreshing and uplifting. Thanks to the interweaving of subtle fresh citrus notes embedded in notes of sweet fruits, bergamot when inhaled relieves tension and helps overcome any emotional frustration.

However, this oil also has a restorative and invigorating effect, which can be useful for conditions such as negative thinking, mild depression. Bergamot can promote optimism and set the stage for true emotional transformation.

Bergamot oil can certainly be considered harmonious. Bergamot "helps close the gap between mind, body and emotions" (Pollard 2011) and is useful for enhancing integration between thinking and feeling in the face of general conflicts. Bergamot essential oil is one of the few autonomic nervous regulators. Therefore, bergamot is ideal for treating stress-related conditions. Because bergamot has a selective affinity for the upper gut and thus the enteric nervous system, it should be used for all stress-related disorders of the upper digestive tract and gallbladder that require simultaneous relaxation and stimulation. Bergamot can act as both a gastrobiliary stimulant and an antispasmodic relaxant at the same time, especially when taken orally.
