Recently on my YouTube channel, I highlighted how essential oils influence our physiology, aid in a healthy stress response, and balance our mood. In my latest video, I explore three ways these secondary metabolites can further optimize our mental and cognitive health based on their multifaceted actions.
Essential oils have the ability to (1) modulate hormones and brain signaling patterns, (2) shift brain electrical activity, and (3) protect the nervous system. They accomplish these aspects through the direct interaction of their aromatic molecules with our cellular receptors. In my latest clinical tip, I explore these mechanisms in more detail and provide specific examples.
Topics include:
- The effects of essential oils on our mood and hormones
- How essential oils influence brain signaling patterns at the cellular level
- Specific essential oils that modulate neurotransmitters
- The impact of essential oils on brain electrical activity
- Essential oils that offer neuroprotective effects
- My two favorite essential oils for memory and cognitive support
