Dr. Nick Notes

Caraway is a common household plant in the middle east - for me it brings back memories of enjoying “everything” bagels with my parents when I was a young child.  Caraway produces a powerful CO2 extract that ranges from culinary delights to powerful therapeutic benefits. Perhaps most well historically integrated in Ayurvedic medicine, Caraway essential oil is used as a digestive tonic, known to treat Vata and Pitta dosha imbalances.  Caraway seeds have been used for centuries in culinary preparations for flavoring foods and to enhance digestion.

Caraway Essential is a fantastic warming, stimulating and exciting essence to diffuse into your kitchen or home to stimulate digestive responses in the body, keeping the mind calm yet active!  In research studies caraway seeds has been shown to have great therapeutic effects treating IBS and Colitis in mice.

How to Use

  • Add to food or beverage to enhance flavor and aid digestion ~ Try 1-3 drops diluted in tea, juice, or water to aid with GI imbalances.
  • Create your own salad dressing or oil infusion for food adding 1-3 drops in 8-16 ounces of your favorite edible oil (ie. Olive Oil or Sunflower Oil)
  • Diffuse caraway into a room using your diffuser using 1-5 drops to bring clarity and stimulate digestive processes.
  • Use in aromatherapy to ease an anxious mind and stimulate focus.
  • Wonderfully complex note in botanical perfumery ~ Pro-Tip: Experiment with hints of mint or patchouli!
