Used since ancient times across various cultures, it is highly valued for its digestive, respiratory, and calming properties. Its warm and comforting aroma promotes balance, relaxation, and overall well-being.

🧪 Chemical Composition

Anise essential oil contains a high concentration of trans-anethole (up to 90%), the compound responsible for most of its therapeutic effects. Due to its potency, it should be used with caution in certain cases such as:

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding.
• Severe liver disorders.
• Hormone-dependent cancers (due to its mild estrogenic activity).
• People with a history of alcoholism.

⚠️ Precautions

• Pregnancy and lactation: Avoid use during these periods because of its estrogenic properties.
• Liver disorders and hormone-related cancers: Do not use in these conditions.
• Dosage and dilution: Always use in low concentrations and dilute in a carrier oil to prevent skin irritation or adverse reactions.
• External use only: Do not ingest unless supervised by a qualified health professional.

🌸 How to Use

• Aromatherapy: Add 3–5 drops to a diffuser to create a relaxing and soothing atmosphere, or to ease respiratory discomfort.
• Massage: Dilute 2–3 drops in one tablespoon of carrier oil (such as sweet almond or jojoba) and apply with gentle circular movements to relieve muscle spasms or digestive tension.
