Origin and description<\/strong><\/h4>\n

It belongs to the Asteraceae family.<\/p>\n

It is characterized by its silvery, downy foliage and especially by its small, golden-yellow flowers grouped in flowerheads that do not fade.<\/p>\n

Its name comes from the Greek “helios” which means sun and “chrysos” which means golden.<\/p>\n

It is very present in the Mediterranean basin. It likes the arid and sunny grounds.<\/p>\n

It was first described in Italy, hence its name “Italicum”, but it is mainly found in Corsica.<\/p>\n

At the Domaine, it is cultivated, harvested and distilled according to Ecocert certified organic standards.<\/p>\n

The yield during distillation is very low. It takes a ton of flowers for 1 kg of essential oil. This is why its price is very high.<\/p>\n

The plant has a strong smell of curry and the perfume of the essential oil is not very pleasant but the effectiveness is there.<\/p>\n

Composition<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The dosage of neryl acetate and italidione is high in this oil. This gives it its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, healing and decongestant properties.<\/p>\n

The immortelle has no more to prove its active principles in phytotherapy.<\/p>\n

It is considered as the “super Arnica”, 1000 times more powerful.<\/p>\n

It is thus necessary to use it with a parsimonious dosage.<\/p>\n

It acts on the capillary permeability, decreasing the stagnation of lymph and blood.<\/p>\n

It is used in dyspepsia (heartburn and acid reflux), hematomas, circulation disorders (varicosities, varicose veins, anti-phlebitic, veino and lympho-tonic, Reynaud’s disease), skin problems (scars, superficial wounds, burns, couperose, stretch marks, eczema, acne, wrinkles, bedsores), arthritis, rheumatism and as an airway decongestant (anticatarrhal, natural expectorant).<\/p>\n

Use and dosage<\/strong><\/h4>\n
    \n
  • In the form of essential oil, immortelle is often diluted in another vegetable oil such as Argan or Jojoba.<\/li>\n
  • For the use in local treatment for the cutaneous problems, dilute 6 drops in 30 ml of oil of jojoba or argan.<\/li>\n
  • For use in night cream, dilute 10 drops in 50 ml of cream<\/li>\n
  • For the use for the circulatory problems, haematomas or rheumatism… The dilution can be more concentrated until 50\/50 in the vegetable oil of calophylle. The higher the concentration, the more it should be used on small targeted areas.<\/li>\n
  • For the bath, dilute 10 drops.<\/li>\n
  • For the use in diffuser, 10 drops.<\/li>\n
  • For inhalation during respiratory problems, put 5 drops in a bowl of hot water.<\/li>\n
  • As an infusion for dyspepsia problems, put a handful of flowers in a saucepan, boil and then put in the refrigerator.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Precautions<\/h4>\n

    As with all essential oils, there can be allergic reactions. It is always better to try a drop on the arm pit and wait 48 hours.<\/p>\n

    The use of immortelle is not recommended for pregnant women and during breast feeding.<\/p>\n

    It is not recommended for young children.<\/p>\n

    It is not advised in the persons suffering from an obstruction of the bile ducts or taking an anticoagulant treatment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
