Cumin oil - properties

Cumin oil has a strong antimicrobial effect. Numerous studies have confirmed that it is effective against bacteria (both aerobic and anaerobic), fungi and yeasts, making it ideal as an adjunctive therapy for dermatological problems. It can be used on minor wounds, minor scrapes and cuts.

The oil is often used in professional skin care cosmetics and perfumes. It is of great importance in the pharmaceutical industry - it solves many stomach problems (especially the gastrointestinal tract).

Cumin oil plays a huge role in aromatherapy - it soothes, calms and creates a pleasant atmosphere. Can be used during massage or bath. Perfect for inhalations (e.g. using an aromatherapy focus or diffuser), especially for upper respiratory tract infections or runny noses – it will ease breathing and help remove lingering secretions.
