Happy New Year!!! My hope for this new year would be for you to discover the “lasting aroma” and “health benefits” of SESquiTerPENES.
I’ve heard you say: “I love Cedarwood”, “I use Sandalwood every day”, and “I really like Hong Kuai“.
I’m wondering WHY you like these Sesquiterpene essential oils. Is it the aroma? Is it the fact that the aroma hangs around so long? Is it the consistency of the aroma – it smells the same from the time you put it on?
Hong Kuai is one of these oils. The major components by GC-MS are Sesquiterpenes. Sesquiterpenes have a “woody-rich” aroma. The aroma ofHong Kuai lasts ALLLLLLLLLLLLL DAY. So worth the money. When you buy Hong Kuai you get the most value for your $1.
Hong Kuai is high in unique “long-lasting” aroma molecules:
Oxygenated Monoterpenes
Oxygenated Sesquiterpenes
These molecules love water and moist surfaces. When you inhale them they STICK to the moist surfaces are your lungs, bronchials, sinuses, and nasal cavity. Great for WINTER HEALTH.
If you look at the names of the unique molecules:
Nopinone
cis-Myrtanol
trans-Myrtanol
Oxygenated Monoterpenes that HOLD onto moist surfaces in your RESPIRatory tissues.
Add to that some “moisture-loving” Oxygenated Sesquiterpenes:
tau-Muurolol
beta-Costol
alpha-Cadinol
I love to inhale Hong Kuai essential oil (5 breathes) prior to running in the mountains of Utah. I can still detect the LONG-lasting molecules for the full 2-3 hours that I’m running. THAT is value!!!!
SESquiTERpene-rich essential oils are worth using to stay healthy. They are the “BEST BUY” of essential oils because SESquiTERpenes are the most valuable molecules.
