|
Constituents : Benzoic acid, vanillin and coniferyl benzoate. |
Uses : Benzoin absolute oil is used to help relieve and soothe minor irritation of the nose, throat, and airways (e.g., laryngitis, croup) when it is mixed with hot water and the steam is inhaled.
|
Benefit : Benzoin absolute oil can be benefited as an antidepressant, carminative, cordial, deodorant, disinfectant, and a relaxant. It also functions as a diuretic, expectorant, antiseptic, vulnerary, astringent, anti-inflammatory, anti-rheumatic, and a sedative substance. |
