French Style Aromatherapy describes Carrot Seed as helping to drain toxins from liver and kidneys. Accordingly it regenerates liver cells and lowers cholesterol. Closer investigation also reveals that Daucus carota oil helps with circulatory issues and is uniquely able to treat gastric ulcers due to H. pylori. Interestingly there are various qualities of Carrot Seed oil of which we offer three, among them a wild artisanal SIMPLES certified version from Provence displaying the inimitable sumptuous, supple softness of wildcrafted essential oils from Haute Provence.

(see SIMPLES below)

Carrot Seed is composed of about 65% of sesquiterpenoid components (about 50% carotol) and a corresponding concentration of monoterpenoids. It is unique in regenerating liver cells and is employed in French Style blends to lower cholesterol made from Carrot Seed, Everlasting, and Rosemary camphor in a base oil. A French style blend to regenerate liver cells is composed of Carrot Seed, Everlasting and Greenland Moss. As mentioned above Carrot Seed is singular among essential oils to effectively treat gastric ulcers caused by H. pylori, especially when blended with small amounts of Clove Bud and Bay Laurel EO.
