Anti-inflammatory
and antioxidant properties of Helichrysum italicum.
The anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities of the
aerial part of Helichrysum italicum extracts have been
established (Departament de Farmacologia, Facultat de
Farmàcia, Universitat de València, Spain)
in various in-vivo and in-vitro experimental models. The
results obtained on the acute oedemas induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol
13-acetate (TPA) and ethyl phenylpropiolate in the mouse
ear, by serotonin and phospholipase A2 (PLA2) in the mouse
paw, on chronic inflammation induced by repeated application
of TPA in the mouse ear and on the delayed-type hypersensitivity
induced by sheep red blood cells suggest that said anti-inflammatory
activity is due to the effects of compounds expressed
via a corticoid-like mechanism. In addition, the antioxidant
activity of the extracts seems to be implicated in this
anti-inflammatory activity, as the former inhibits enzymatic
and non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation and has free-radical
scavenger properties. We conclude that the anti-inflammatory
activity of Helichrysum italicum can be explained by multiple
effects, including inflammatory enzyme inhibition, free-radical
scavenging activity and corticoid-like effects.
Remedy
1 : Rosacea
& Micro blood vessel
|
|
|
Composition
by order of % content : Cannabis Sativa , Pinus sylvestris
, Pelargoneum graveolens , Rosmarinus officinalis , helichrysum
italicum
Powerful solution to fight rosacea which is a potentially
progressive neurovascular disorder that generally affects
the facial skin. The most common symptoms include facial
redness and inflammation across the flushing zone –
usually the nose, cheeks, chin and forehead ; visibly
dilated blood vessels, facial swelling and burning sensations,
and inflammatory papules and pustules. The intense action
version may also have a beneficial effect on some forms
of viteligo.
Remedy
2 :Varicous
veins & heavy legs
|
|
|
Composition
by order of % content : Carthamus tinctorius , Mentha arvensis
, Eucalyptus Radiata , Cupressus sempervirens , helichrysum
italicum
Weakness
of the vein wall allows valves in the superficial veins
to stretch so that they do not close as they should. Blood
then flows back into the leg along these veins. As the
veins enlarge they can be seen on the surface as varicose
veins. Raised pressure in these veins encourages the development
of spider veins and discoloured areas which look like
bruises.
Remedy
3 :Bruising
& Contusion
|
|
|
Composition
by order of % content : Argan oil, Laurus nobilis , Cedarus
atlantica & Helichrysum Italicum .
A
balanced mixture addressing all kind
of contusions. A bruise, also called a contusion, is a
type of relatively minor hematoma of tissue in which capillaries
and sometimes venules are damaged by trauma, allowing
blood to seep into the surrounding interstitial tissues.
Bruises can involve capillaries at the level of skin,
subcutaneous tissue, muscle, or bone. A bruise may be
named by the length of its diameter as an petechia (less
than 3 mm), purpura (3 mm to 1 cm) or ecchymosis (1 to
3 cm), although these terms can also refer to internal
bleeding not caused by trauma.
Composition
by order of % content : Prunis Amygdalus, Junniper communis,
Myrtus communis, Boswellia Rivae and Helichrysum Italicum
.
The
skin protein collagen is particularly susceptible to free
radical damage, and when this occurs, it causes the collagen
protein molecules to break down. Scientists now believe
that the free radical theory of disease also applies to
the aging of the skin. Free radicals are unstable small
molecules generated by an oxygen environment which require
stabilization by the body's antioxidant system. Free radicals
occur throughout every cell in our body simply by virtue
of the fact that oxygen is our principal metabolic fuel.
Strong sunlight readily generates free radicals in the
skin. Our hands, face, neck, and arms are the areas usually
chronically exposed to light. These parts of the body,
particularly the face, are where aging of the skin shows
up.
Remedy
5 : Burns
and Sunburns

the first degree when only the top layer of epidermis
skin is affected. Burns are the result of damage to the
skin by some source of heat, such as the sun, fires, stoves,
or also from chemicals. A mild burn, often termed "first-degree,"
results in a reddening of the skin. For more severe burns
a doctor will always be necessary :"second-degree,"
may show blisters in addition to the redness, while severe
or "third-degree burns" always show blisters
and usually consist of damage to deeper tissue, and present
the possibility of scarring.

Italicum .
Use
to treat boils and / or insect bites. There
is often a skin reaction to an insect bite, and this may
lead to pruritus and urticarial papules, and can sometimes
leads to secondary bacterial infection. As well as a local
reaction, the bite may cause an anaphylactic reaction
and may act as a vector of disease and trigger boils.
Boils are very common. They are generally caused by the
bacteria staphylococcus aureus, but they may be caused
by other bacteria or fungi found on the skin's surface.
Damage to the hair follicle allows these bacteria to enter
deeper into the tissues of the follicle and the tissue
underneath. As always you should consult your doctor if
symptoms persist.
Remedy
8 : Scars
and Strech marks
|
|
|
Composition
by order of % content : Prunus armeniaca , Aniba rosaeodora
, Lavandula dentata , Daucus carota , helichrysum italicum
Stretch
marks or striae (singular stria), as they are called in
dermatology, are a form of scarring on the skin with an
off-color hue. They are caused by tearing of the dermis,
which over time may diminish, but will not disappear completely.
Stretch marks are often the result of the rapid stretching
of the skin associated with rapid growth. Stretch marks
may also be influenced by hormonal changes associated
with puberty, pregnancy, muscle building, hormone replacement
. Medical terminology for these kinds of markings includes
striae atrophicae, vergetures, stria distensae, striae
cutis distensae, striae gravidarum (in cases where it
is caused by pregnancy), lineae atrophicae, linea albicante,
or simply striae.
Aromatherapy
is a form of alternative medicine that uses volatile
plant materials, known as essential oils, and
other aromatic compounds for the purpose of altering
a person's mind, mood, cognitive function or health.
Some
essential oils such as helichrysum Italicum have
demonstrated anti-microbial effects and clinical
evidence exist demonstrating its efficacy against
bacterial, fungal, or viral infections. Evidence
for the efficacy of aromatherapy in general in
treating medical conditions needs further studies
employing rigorous methodology, but some evidence
exists that essential oils has therapeutic potential.
Using
our aromatherapy remedies is a great way to take
care of your family's health using natural healing
ingredients - It is also however a good idea to
seek qualified medical opinion in conjunction
with support from a qualified aromatherapist.

OILS USED IN OUR REMEDIES |
 |
 |
|
All
our blends used in our remedies have been studied
with their own specificities in mind remembering
also that all oils have their beneficial effects
multiplied when they are combined together in
the proper synergy. The different Botanical Organic
oils used are imported from Australia ( except
helichrysum italicum of course...
) . |
The
main Organic carriers oils used in our remedies
SESAME
OIL : Sesame Oil is rich in vitamins E and
B, and in minerals such as calcium, magnesium and
phosphorus. It is an excellent emollient, and if used
in dilution with other carrier oils, is a popular
massage and aromatherapy carrier oil. It will not
satin sheets.
PRUNUS
ARMENIACA : Like
those of the peach, apricot kernels contain constituents
similar to those of the bitter almond. Apricot kernels
yield by expression 40 to 50 per cent of a fixed oil,
similar to that which occurs in the sweet almond and
peach kernels. This oil is rich in vitamins and fatty
acids such as GLA. Apricot oil makes an excellent choice
for moisturizing devitalized, wrinkled skin, apricot
oil is known for its ability to penetrate the skin without
leaving an oily feel.
Apricot oil is used as a substitute for Oil of Almonds,
which it very closely resembles. It finds considerable
employment in cosmetics, for its softening action on
the skin. It is often fraudulently added to genuine
Almond oil and used in the manufacture of soaps, cold
creams and other preparations of the perfumery trade.
PRUNIS
AMYGDALUS : Almond
oil has many cosmetic and medicinal uses, and while
softening and soothing the skin helps to condition it
and promote a clear young looking complexion ; Its fine
texture has a natural affinity to all skin types and
is easily absorbed without leaving the skin clogged
or greasy, and is especially good for dry and irritated
skin
 |
|
POPPY
SEED : Poppy Seed Oil is obtained
from the seeds of the poppy flower. With their
abundance of carbohydrates and calcium, organic
poppy seeds are considered a good source of
energy. Ancient Greek athletes often consumed
a mixture of poppy seeds, honey and wine for
health and strength. Raw poppy seed oil is
high in essential fatty acids.
It is rich in linoleic acid (an omega-6 fatty
acid), which researchers say offers protection
against heart disease and heart attacks. It
is also rich in oleic acid, an ingredient
that researchers say can prevent breast cancer.
The poppy plant has been used for years in
the manufacture of medicines. While opium
comes from the poppy plant, poppy seeds have
no narcotic properties. The fluid in the bud
that becomes opium is not present once the
seeds are fully formed.
|
 |
|
HEMP
SEED : Hempseed oil is pressed from
the seed of the hemp (cannabis) plant irrespective
of the strain of cannabis. Cold pressed, unrefined
hemp oil is dark to clear light green in color,
with a pleasant nutty flavor. The darker the
color, the grassier the flavour.Hemp oil contains
57% linoleic (LA) and 19% linolenic (LNA)
acids, in the three-to-one ratio that matches
our nutritional needs. These are the essential
fatty acids (EFAs)-so called because the body
cannot make them and must get them from external
sources. The best sources are oils from freshly
ground grains and whole seeds, but EFAs are
fragile and quickly lost in processing. EFAs
are the building blocks of longer chain fats,
such as eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic
acid (DHA) that occur naturally in the fat
of cold-water fish like sardines, mackerel,
salmon, bluefish, herring, and, to a lesser
extent, tuna.
Because omega-3 fatty acids reduce the clotting
tendency of the blood and improve cholesterol
profiles. They also have a natural anti-inflammatory
effect that makes them useful for people with
arthritis and autoimmune disorders.

ARGAN
: Argan oil is an oil produced from
the kernels of the argan tree, endemic to
Morocco, that is valued for its nutritive,
cosmetic and numerous medicinal properties.
Our oil is edible and has been extrated and
is exempt of all addives that could be found
sometimes in the cosmetic version.
The tree, a relict species from the Tertiary
age, is extremely well adapted to drought
and other environmentally difficult conditions
of southwestern Morocco. The species Argania
once covered North Africa and is now endangered
and under protection of UNESCO. The Argan
tree grows wild in semi-desert soil, its deep
root system helping to protect against soil
erosion and the northern advance of the Sahara.
Argan oil remains one of the rarest oils in
the world due the small and very specific
growing areas.

SAFFLOWER
: Carthame or Safflower (Carthamus
tintorius, Composae). Grown mainly in India,
Mexico, Ethiopia, Australia and cultivated
in USA. The plant was known in ancient Egypt
(mummy of pharaoh Amenophis I, 1600 B.C.),
in the Persian Gulf and used until recently
for its tinctorial properties (pink, red color).
Oil content: 30-40%. The oil which has one
of the highest linoleic acid content (75-80%)
is used in lipochemistry, human nutrition
and dietetic. Thus, safflower oil is also
utilized as cooking oil and in the form of
salad oil, mayonnaise, margarine and in processed
foods.
It contains high levels of Omega-6 fatty acids,
which are essential to health. Safflower oil
contains more polyunsaturates than any other
specialty vegetable oil. This oil remains
one of the best sources of linoleic acid,
an essential fatty acid that cannot be synthesized
by the human body but is a nutritional necessity
for healthy development and growth.
The oleic acid is beneficial for maintaining
a healthy heart, and has anti-carcinogenic
properties. It also contain cis-linoleic acid.
This helps the body burn brown fat for heat,
which can help lower and maintain a healthy
weight.
Its high Vitamin E content is an antioxidant.
Antioxidants counter the damage done to cells
by free radicals.

FLAX
OIL : Camelina Oil (Gold of Pleasure
or Flax Seed Oil) (INCI = Camelina Sativa
Seed Oil).
Camelina Oil (commonly known as Gold of Pleasure)
is a cold pressed oil from the seeds of the
cruciferous annual plant Camelina Sativa.
It is also called false flax since it is often
found growing wild amoungst flax. Camelina
Oil is a very rich source of Polyunsaturated
Fatty Acids (PUFA's) which makes it an excellent
choice for nutraceutical use; This oil is
unique in being exceptionally rich in both
omega-3 fatty acids (up to 45%) and potent
antioxidants (such as vitamin E). The high
antioxidant content and an almond-like taste
and aroma makes Camelina oil a much more versatile
culinary oil compared with the most common
source of omega-3 supplementation: flax oil

PUMPKIN
OIL : Pumpkin
seeds, and the oil they contain, have long
been used as folk medicine. They have recently
been the subject of a number of studies
to identify their health-promoting potential.

and in modern times to speed the body's natural healing
response. It is immune-enhancing, antibiotic, antifungal,
antiviral, and antiseptic. In clinical practice, its
anti-inflammatory powers make frankincense rivae a useful
adjunct treatment of rheumatic and arthritic conditions.
Boswellia
oil is also cytophylactic, meaning it encourages healthy
growth and regeneration of skin cells. This renders
it ideal for treating cuts and other wounds, eczema,
boils, acne, scars, stretch marks, skin ulcers, and
inflamed skin. Frankincense is used cosmetically to
improve dry, wrinkled, and aging skin and certain of
its compounds have been linked to the suppression of
tumor growth as well.
Lavandula
dentata : Lavender is legendary among herbs
as a healer, and many of its historic uses have proven
to be legitimate. French lavender essential oil can
be used as an antimicrobial, antiviral and also a fungicide.
It was used in wartime for antiseptic purposes, because
when the oil was rubbed into a wound, the infection
rate plummeted. Many people have used it over the centuries
as a headache remedy, and it is also popular as a tension
reliever. This property makes it useful in muscle ointments,
which is why it is so popular in massage therapy;
Over
the years, mothers have made pillows for their babies
that were stuffed with the blossoms because the essential

helps to relieve stress and exhaustion, but is a powerful
detoxifier and liver booster, while stimulating and
rejuvenating the skin in general, thereby adding elasticity
to any skin. At the same time it fights any skin problems,
such as psoriasis, eczema, weeping sores, ulcers, boils
and carbuncles. The formative action on the epidermal
cells help to keep wrinkles at bay and is also helpful
when fighting liver spots (age spots).
The
name is derived from the Greek 'Carotos' and it had
great medicinal value in ancient times, especially for
its carminative properties. In modern application, it
is used for cancer patients, especially those with stomach
and throat problems.
Since
carrot seed oil contains carotene and vitamin A, it
is also very good for healthy skin, hair, gums and teeth
and is also associated with good eyesight. The therapeutic
properties of carrot seed oil are antiseptic, carminative,
cytophylactic, depurative, diuretic, emmenagogue, hepatic,
stimulant, tonic and vermifuge.

How
does Helichrysum Oil Reduce Stretch Marks?
Helichrysum essential oil has this special quality as
it is able to regenerate skin by stimulating cell turnover.
Hence, it penetrates to the cellular level and can quickly
repair damaged skin tissues and fade away marks. It
is used to cure skin conditions like acne, rosacea,
eczema and psoriasis (see above). It visibly improves
the appearance of skin at a fast pace. So, helichrysum
oil can definitely help to reduce stretch marks.
Do
you want to know how does helichrysum oil help in getting
rid of stretch marks?
Well,
it improves the elasticity of the skin and thus, prevents
the appearance of stretch marks. This is because the
chemical structure of helichrysum oil contains many
active molecules and di-ketones that promote cell regeneration.
If you already have stretch marks, helichrysum oil will
also help nourish the damaged skin tissues due to excessive
stretching. The best quality of the oil is that it heals
epidermal injuries without leaving any marks behind.
It is extremely suitable for sensitive skin so you do
not have to worry about any side effects post application.
However, you can still conduct a patch test on the insides
of your elbow to ensure against any allergic reactions.
Helichrysum oil can fade stretch marks within 3 months
of continuous use. In fact, you will see your stretch
marks fade away within the first few applications.

That’s
quite a lot to comprehend. I can also add that its smell
is also used in aromatherapy as an anti depressant.
All of this is just for use on the external parts of
our body.
Helichrysum Italicum can also be diluted in vegetable
oil such as apricot oil and used as a friction on the
suffering organ.
It is advised not to use for long periods of time, in
fact a local use diluted in a vegetable oil for small
children and pregnant women, do not ingest and do not
use on the abdominal belt of expectant mothers.
When
used internally it has a therapeutic effect on the liver,
however it has to be administered in the right doses
and by an aroma therapist. Its various uses make it
extremely popular for different trauma’s, being
far stronger than the renowned Arnica, and without secondary
effects. It can be applied to the skin without any difficulty.
Also a natural blood thinner, it effectively combats
the heavy leg syndrome! Its facility for tightening
skin tissues are reputed and acts on scar tissue operatively,
thus permitting rapid healing. One of the other uses
of Helichrysum is for treating some allergies, and with
its vitamin k properties used for the capillaries helping
to strenghten their blood vessels, therefore lessening
fragility. A continuous use has reduced symtoms in phebology,
heavy legs, oedemas and rosacea.
