Guest guest Posted July 4, 2003 Report Share Posted July 4, 2003 Hi Debbie, > I have a quick question. Pennyroyal is not an oil I know much about, > I don't own it, have never used it, know of its toxicity orally and > know what Plant Aromatics says about its dermal application. Like the stuff under the sink .. we ain't supposed to drink it .. it will kill use fer'shur. > Has anyone ever heard of this oil used to relieve menstrual cramps? Yes .. as a matter of routine it is used for that purpose .. that and Chasteberry (Vitex agnus castus). > I know someone who swears by this, applied to her abdomen. Sounds like a smart lady .. it is a ladies oil. > Apparently, there is a chemical in it that is a uterine relaxant. Yes .. it is pulegone. And it is NOT an abortifacient .. like the dumb tales tell. > Anyone know anything about this? Yes'm .. and I ask a little bit of time afore I tell you more .. I'm trying to catch up on orders right now. Also .. I look forward to answering Carrie's questions about soap and contraindications and hopefully clearing up the misinformation she has read on Rosemary. But you know what .. I look more forward to retiring from this industry in maybe 12 months or so .. cause trying to kill the rumors about EO that have become so-called facts in this route-step cottage industry is a little bit like trying to herd cats. ;-p > Debbie > deb > Declare your independence from chemical-laced products! > www.debrasrhapsody.com Y'all keep smiling. :-) Butch http://www.AV-AT.com PS: Kathleen .. and then .. I'm coming over to your list and KILL that snake that keeps rising up .. that dumb crap about Catnip! ;-9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
