Cardamom Essential Oil, From Sandy

Description

Cardamom essential oil is steam distilled from the seeds of the Cardamom plant. Aromatically, it has a spicy, fruity, warm, balsamic scent.
"A close relative to Ginger, Cardamom is known as an expensive cooking spice and for being beneficial to the digestive system in a variety of ways. Cardamom is commonly used internally to help soothe occasional stomach discomfort.* Its distinct scent can promote a positive mood. Ingested Cardamom also has profound effects on the respiratory system due to its high 1,8-cineole content, which promotes clear breathing and respiratory health.* Native to Southeast Asia, Cardamom is added to traditional Indian sweets and teas for its cool, minty aroma and flavor. doTERRA Cardamom essential oil is extracted from Cardamom seeds grown in Guatemala, using our strict CPTG® testing standards. Through a collaborative and responsible sourcing arrangement, we are able to have a significant impact on the lives of local partners, ensuring that these farming communities enjoy improved livelihoods."

Sourcing Information

One of the main reasons I chose dōTERRA is because of where and how they source their essential oils. dōTERRA believes that plants produce the best chemical properties when they are grown and harvested in their native habitat. ​
dōTERRA sources Cardamom from Guatemala. Each batch of essential oils goes through the following battery of tests to ensure that they are pure, potent, effective oils worthy of the dōTERRA name:
  • Organoleptic testing
  • Microbial testing
  • Gas chromatography
  • Mass spectrometry
  • Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR)
  • Chirality testing
  • Isotopic analysis
  • Heavy metal testing
You can access the GC/MS reports of each batch of dōTERRA essential oils. These tests are done by an independent third party lab. Your unique Quality ID is located on the bottom of your bottle. Enter that ID at sourcetoyou.com to access the reports.
