I know of no credible " list " but there is a credible publication. For

years I published and sold Martin Watt's Safety Manual, " Plant Aromatics " .

but I stopped offering it in April 2007 .. see here ..

http://health./message/47329 because I

was having it printed in large volume and I had pretty much saturated the

American market .. now its available only from Martin .. at

http://www.aromamedical.com/paper.html .. this pub lists the oils and the

references concerning who tested what and when and what the results were.

 

This note explained the value of the publication ..

I have absolutely no financial interests in this now .. but I do have an

interest in seeing folks practice as safely as possible and I firmly believe

that creating blends, etc., when one does not have a credible desk side

reference is taking too much risk.
