Infectious disease and pneumonia prevention and treatment with essential oils and aromatic medicine.

Essential oils can offer an effective and yet safer and gentler alternative to antibiotics. With the rise of antibiotic resistant bacteria and new and stronger viruses (H5N1), which we call “super germs,” health practitioners in many countries have turned to essential oils for treatment of their patients. While many drugs have only one, two or three active ingredients, an essential oil may have several hundred compounds, Rose damascene has over 350 identified compounds along with many others that have yet to be identified. The complexity of the natural essential oil compounds is what renders their active ingredients safe when used according to aromatheraputic guidelines and what prevents the super germs from becoming resistant.

While essential oils have proven themselves through scientific examination to be effective in infectious diseases, one of their finest uses may be found in their ability to slow or render inactive pathogens and thus prevent a full blown infectious condition. We will look first at how we can use essential oils to protect ourselves and our families.

Our first line of defense is to prevent contamination at point of contact with the flu or other infectious germs. According to the statement by Laurie Garrett, coming in contact with items touched by those infected with the flu such as doorknobs, shopping carts, or shaking hands will spread the flu virus. We have several ways in which to protect ourselves from picking up germs:

The first being to wash your hands frequently with disinfectant soap and water. Do not use commercial antibacterial soaps as they only kill the weak germs and thus are helping to create the strong resistant germs. To your liquid hand soap you can add 20 to 30 drops of Deep Cleanser to make it antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal. Use this often when you are out in public places or in contact with anyone who has symptoms of cold or flu. Carry a smaller size of this soap in your purse or in your pocket so you can use it in public restrooms. Keep in mind this is a place where you are very likely to come in contact with germs.

In addition to the above hand cleanser, you can make an antibacterial, antiviral disinfectant spray that can be used on toilet seats, doorknobs, shopping carts and other areas where you touch items that other people have touched. To make the spray add 20 to 30 drops of Deep Cleanser to 4 oz of distilled water in a blue glass bottle with a fine sprayer. Shake well and spray onto items you want to disinfect. You may want to make up a 2 oz size to carry with you or for travel. Use 10 to 15 drops of Deep Cleanser to 2 oz of distilled water in 2 oz size blue spray bottle, shake well. It is important to start with distilled water if possible, as most waters have various contaminates.

To make a disinfectant hand lotion (unscented if possible) you can add a mixture of 10 drops Eucalyptus globulus, 10 drops Tea Tree and 5 drops Peppermint to 4 oz of hand lotion. This is a good anti-infection hand lotion and is cooling and pleasant smelling and can be used in place of the waterless antibacterial hand cleaners that are sold in stores.

Use Deep Cleanser in your washing machine and dishwasher to prevent germs from being passed between family members. To your washing machine add 10 to 12 drops when you start the water. To the dishwasher put 5 to 6 drops in with the soap before starting.

Use Eucalyptus globules as an addition to your household cleansers to disinfect garbage pails, clean floors and other household cleaning projects. For a mop bucket you can add 10 to 12 drops when adding the water. For other cleaning projects add 10 to 12 drops per gallon of water used.

To kill germs that are in the air, Lemon oil diffused has been proven to be the most effective for airborne pathogens. Diffuse into the air with a good diffuser (electric) for 15 minutes 2 or 3 times a day. You could also alternate or substitute To Be Well for Lemon if you desire. Make sure to keep your Lemon oil in a cool place away from heat. Do not leave the lid off for extended periods of time. If your Lemon oil oxidizes it will not be as effective as you expect.

During periods of colds and flu, protect yourself and your family by building your immune system. Use 1^st Defense on your feet or To Be Well for children when you are getting dressed in the morning and again when you are preparing for bed. 3 to 4 drops of 1^st Defense on the bottoms of each foot for adults and 1 drop (1 year olds) 2 drops (2 year olds) or 3 drops (3 years old to age 10) of To Be Well on each foot for children, the elderly or those with liver conditions.

At the first sign of throat infection or sore throat, use Dr. Penoel’s Tea Tree Lick. Place one drop of Tea Tree on your little finger lick it off, swish around to mix with saliva and swallow. Can repeat as necessary every 5 minutes up to 5 times. Most people get results by 3 to 4 times and usually the sore throat does not return. For children 3 years and younger apply to the throat and gland area topically, dilute 3 to 4 drops in a teaspoon of grapeseed oil.

The first consideration with a viral infection particularly one as lethal as H5N1 is to realize the rapid rate at which it multiplies and takes over the body. The best treatment will be what I call the “French Intensive” method of applying essential oils as recommended by Dr. Penoel. That is to apply essential oils frequently and intensively until you see results. As this particular flu seems to target the lungs and cause death through a kind of pneumonia we will look at that area first.

You will need a good nubulizer type of diffuser for inhalation therapy that can deliver a medicinal dose of essential oils into the air in very close proximity to the person infected (approximately 1 to 2 feet being careful not to get in the eyes). At the first indication of the flu begin diffusing 10 drops Ravensara, 5 drops Lemon and 5 drops Lavender mixed together in the diffuser. Diffuse until oil is gone or up to 15 minutes. Repeat this application 3 to 4 times a day. Ravensara oil is specific for pneumonia, Lemon kills germs and Lavender helps to heal the lung tissue.

Alternate the above application with 15 to 20 drops of Breath of Life to a quart of water in a cold water vaporizer. Use between applications of the nubulizer diffuser. May also vaporize Breath of Life at night while the person is sleeping.

Ravensara can also be applied to the soles of the feet 3 to 6 drops on each foot for adults can reapply every hour until you see results then 4 times a day until symptoms are gone. 1 drop on children 1 year or less (Ravensara is safe at this application amount for newborns), 2 drops for 2 year olds and 3 drops for children 3 to 10 years old. For children apply 3 to 4 times a day. As I stated before, Ravensara is very effective and has an affinity for pneumonia type conditions and has been very effective with application through the feet.

Breath of Life can be diluted 6 to 10 drops in a tablespoon of grapeseed oil and used as a rub on the chest and back over the lung area and then apply a warm towel or other warmth holding fabric to the area. For children under the age of 6 use 3 to 6 drops in a tablespoon of grapeseed. Children under 3 years of age use 1 drop of Ravensara and 1 drop of Eucalyptus radiata to 1 tablespoon of grapeseed oil and use in place of the Breath of Life.

1^st Defense applied to the soles of the feet to boost the immune response, for adults applying 3 to 4 drops on the sole of each foot every hour during the time you are awake for up to 8 to 10 applications when you first begin to come down with the flu. May use this application directly after the Ravensara foot application.

For children use To Be Well instead of 1^st Defense applied to the soles of the feet to boost immune response. 1 drop on sole of each foot ages 1year, 2 drops ages 2 years and 3 drops ages 3 to 10 years, every hour for up to 5 hours then every 4 hours if they are still awake. This application can follow directly after the application of Ravensara to the feet. Children under the age of 6 months use 1 drop Ravensara instead of To Be Well. This recommendation is slightly different than what we had for prevention as it is to be used more intensely which delivers more essential oil to the blood stream.

Eucalyptus radiata can be added to water and used as a sponge bath to help control fever. You can add 10 to 12 drops of Eucalyptus radiata to a quart jar of room temperature to slightly cool but not cold distilled water, shake it up well and pour into a bowl. Soak a wash cloth and wipe down the body of the person with the fever to reduce their temperature. The content of 1.8 cineole will help the body not to exceed a safe temperature. Make sure to monitor the person as Eucalyptus can cool a person very quickly and make them chill.

If the patient is in serious condition or is not responding quickly enough they may need to take essential oils internally. For adults you can make up capsules of essential oils diluted in olive oil and for children you can dilute the essential oil and then add it to applesauce. The following essential oils are on the GRAS list as generally regarded as safe for consumption. Still keep in mind that phenols found in essential oils can irritate mucus membranes. Do not swallow these oils without containing them inside a capsule to protect the tissue of the esophagus.

For adults who do not have a history of liver problems (phenols are hard on the liver), you may take the large 00 gelatin capsules sold at health food stores, remove the top and fill the large bottom section ¾ full of olive oil. Next add 1 drop of Thyme ct. thymol, 1 drop of cinnamon, and 1 drop of clove. Replace the cap and take 1 to 2 capsules 3 times a day. If you do not experience stomach irritation you can increase your drops to 2 of each of the recommended essential oils. If you experience stomach irritation, dilute your essential oils (1 drop of each) into 1 teaspoon of olive oil and then fill your capsules with the more diluted oil. Do not make up more capsules than you can use in 2 to 3 days as they may deteriorate or dissolve.

For children 3 years and older you may mix 1 drop of Tea Tree, 1 drop of Ravensara and 1 drop of Eucalyptus radiata into 1 teaspoon of olive oil. From this diluted mixture you can add 1 drop of oil mix to a tablespoon of applesauce and give to the child 3 times a day. Children, under age 3, do not give them essential oils internally but use on the feet. The children’s oils are non-toxic as recommended.

Along with the above protocol, you may need to address depression and anxiety caused when people experience severe traumatic situations and loss. To help sleep and physical relaxation you can apply To Be At Peace to a tissue and slip inside the pillow case of the person when the are in bed. It can also be diffused when you are not diffusing something else.

Geranium is a good balancing and anti-depressive essential oil and could also be diffused or applied to a tissue. The same with Lavender, which is known to be a natural relaxer.

To conclude: There are a couple of more recommendations I have for combating the flu. First and foremost, you should eliminate fast foods, sugar, and highly processed foods from your diet as they deplete the immune system and the body. Secondly, you should be supplementing your diet with all the essential 90 nutrients that your body requires to function properly. There are also two other products that I would recommend and that is the Super KB for its ability to help regulate the build up of water in the body, and the Immu-911, which can help to build the function of the immune system.

It you believe you are sick or about to become sick you should consult a profession health care provider. Preferably one who is familiar with nutrition and aromatherapy.
