Dr. Nick Notes
Organic Chili Extract is a potent CO2 extract with a lot of fire - just look at it’s radiant ruby hue! Chili Extract must be handled with caution due to its high levels of capsaicin that can cause irritation to the skin if not diluted, and definitely to the eyes! When diluted into a carrier oil at .1% or less, the massage oil can have pain relieving effects to the local area of application.
Chili Extract may be supportive for neuropathic pain, especially in conjunction with Black Pepper & Helichrysum essential oils. Chili oil offers vasodilating properties increase blood flow and may help those with cardiovascular issues. Great for use in winter months to stimulate blood flow and increase core body temperature - only for use by the adventurous. Delicious in conjunction with chocolate, warm sauces and soups in culinary experimentation!
How to Use:
- Add 1-2 drops to a large serving of food to add profuse heat qualities and therapeutic values to a dish. Excellent in soups, chilis, chocolate elixirs and sauces! For use by adventure seekers ONLY 🙂
- Add 1-3 drops to a spray bottle with water to use as a natural pest repellent or insecticide in your garden. Great synergized with Geranium, Lavender, Lemon Eucalyptus.
- Dilute into a carrier oil at a rate of less than .1% and apply to sore joints, muscles, and increase blood circulation. Combine with other analgesic extracts (ie. Black Pepper, Nutmeg) for best results.
