The thyroid gland plays a crucial role in stimulating metabolism and regulating calcium levels in the body.
Most people ignore this small gland until something goes wrong.
When thyroid hormone production becomes imbalanced, the entire body suffers.
Luckily, essential oils can help improve thyroid activity naturally.
To get the most out of essential oils, it’s best to work with a natural medicine practitioner familiar with aromatherapy.
Top Essential Oils for Thyroid Health:
- Frankincense oil – Supports the pineal gland, pituitary gland, and hypothalamus.
- Sandalwood oil – Great for the pineal gland, pituitary, and hypothalamus.
- Clove oil – Excellent for thyroid health.
- Lemon oil – Enhances thyroid function; when combined with clove oil, its benefits are even greater.
- Rosemary oil – Stimulates the glands and brain, and supports adrenal glands.
