Description

Natural Orange Peel Oil

Jarrow Formulas d-Limonene is a citrus essential oil that stimulates the liver's Phase I and Phase II detoxifying enzyme systems and supports normal immune function. Jarrow Formulas d-Limonene is steam-distilled from orange peel and is purified to be food grade. d-Limonene is the major constituent of several citrus essential oils (orange, lemon and lime), and naturally occurs in citrus juices.

D-Limonene is a compound known as 'lemon extract' and is found in high levels in lemon juices.

It itself, as well as its related product known as 'perillic acid', are known to be anti-carcinogenic (cancer fighting) and liver healthy. Consumption of D-Limonene in either supplemental form or as freshly squeezed and pulp-containing lemonade has been shown to reduce the formation of some tumor growths and alleviate fat buildup in the liver induced by diet.

Although commercial juices tend to have low levels of D-Limonene, freshly squeezed 'Mediterranean Style' juice with the pulp has high levels of it.

Curiocity Lifestyle's Comment:

Am currently consuming Jarrow Formula's D-Limonene. Apparently it is good for people who may have acid-reflux.

Initially, when I came across D-Limonene, I was curious and started to research about it and so decided to consume it as a trial to see how it goes.

What's in my mind? I love natural toiletries, especially products with essential oils. Yup, citrus essential oil is one of them. Bergamot, lemon and orange oils. Lets see the benefits of orange oil, shall we?

So much goodness for external application, so I cannot imagine when cosuming it internally.

Anyway, wisdom suggest...too much of anything can turn out negative. Therefore, I consume D-Limonene for 5 days and off 2 days. Thank You. :)
