Guest guest Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 So I'm still trying to understand the neuro end of the inhalation of eo's. If the molecules of an essential oils are no longer chemical but are transduced into electrical impulses - how does that affect the nervous system? If a chemical molecule is for relaxation, will that molecule become an electrical impulse for relaxation vs. a molecule that can be for alertness? Does the nervous system differentiate between two different types of chemicals? Just trying to understand the neuro end of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 I hope this helps, it explains it pretty well I think.
