May Health Forecast: Do you want to feel more enthusiastic about life?
“I adore the month of May because it brings with it an abundance of magnificent flowers. Roses, in particular, spring to mind as they begin to bloom in California and France during this month. Today, while taking a stroll in my beautiful neighborhood, I was enchanted by the fragrances of the roses and their pink hues. It brought a soft, gentle feeling of appreciation for May.”
Speaking of roses, this month’s health forecast focuses on the many benefits of Rose (Rosa x damascena Mill) essential oil and California Wild Rose (Rosa californica) flower essence.
Rose essential oil has a stunning warm, spicy, and floral aroma that can be used in so many ways – physically, emotionally, mentally, and even spiritually. Rose essential oil is a natural remedy that offers numerous benefits for the body and mind. Its primary constituents include Citronellol, Geraniol, Nonadecane, Nerol, and Nonadecene. Citronellol is known to possess anti-anxiety and stress-relieving properties that can help reduce blood pressure. The regular use of rose essential oil can help improve heart health and increase blood circulation in the body.
According to a study by Demirel in 2022, Geraniol and Citronellol exhibit vasorelaxant effects on the thoracic aorta in rats, which persist even after use. It is worth noting that the thoracic aorta plays a crucial role in supplying oxygenated blood to the muscles, spinal cord, head, neck, upper extremities, and thoracic structures.
