We were having shrimp cocktail for appetizer the other night, I wanted lemons to flavor it but didn't have any, so I decided to try lemon EO, I've never tasted it before, so I was worried it was going to be way too strong or nasty, I put two drops in a bowl and just dipped shrimp in it before dipping in cocktail sauce...wow, it taste amazing!!! To me it taste just like lemon, but with out the sour, bitterness and acid... it was very strong sweet lemon taste, I loved it, actually allot more than lemons themselves! I've also heard that lemon EO won't damage your teeth or upset your belly (it always updates my belly) because it doesn't have the acid in it. It didn't upset my belly at all, and I ended up using 4 drops. So good!
I do love lemon oil! I just wanted to add, if your using it to remove stickers off of plastic make sure to do a spot test first!! I have a 80" projection screen TV it was almost 6k when new, so I've always babied it. It's just been sitting in our den downstairs, so I decided to sale it and use proceeds on getting a new one...well! I had duct tape on the back of it to hold the speaker wires in place and to add a little grip so the speaker's themself wouldn't slide off, I had taken it off years ago but never removed the sticker residue... I had a buyer for it so time to get it cleaned up and looking brand new again and here comes the lemon EO! I started off with one drop in each spot, then two, three, then 4, 4 got it off and it looked good! I came back about thirty minutes later and it turned the plastic white!!! Ahhh!!!! The TV was listed as looking brand new so I had to send them an updated picture and yeah they didn't want it any more :-( so definitely always spot check when using EO's! Live and learn lol
Lemon essential oils can also get rid of a burning smell. I have a backflow cone insence burner and I don't really like the smell of insence but I love watching the smoke gracefully flow down the burner so I got unscented cones to use on my burner..the unscented cones don't have an intense smell like regular insence but they do still have a burning smell obviously because it's lit and burning so I googled how to get rid of a burning smell..I was surprised to see lemon essential oils would eliminate the burning smell so I put lemon essential oil in my oil burner while the insence cone is burning and it definitely worked!! ☺️☺️😌
Lemon essential oil is definitely one of my favorite go-to for cleaning and diffusing... However I've never actually thought of taking it orally. I'm definitely going to try it. Thank you for this great and informative video. ♥️🍋🤗
It may be because it is acidic, citrus especially is an acidic fruit, and the high concentration may possibly be abrasive on the lining and tissue of the esophagus. Think - it's an effective cleaner for all that it comes in contact with, much like vinegars etc.
Hm...I’m a little dubious, regarding the claim, that lemon essential oil will provide you with Vit.C. That’s a water soluble vitamin...it’s in the juice of the lemon, not the oil in the peel. And the amount in one drop would be tiny anyway. It is very nice for flavoring stuff though. Buttermilk or yoghurt with a drop of lemon oil and some honey is...out of this world. So much better than store bought. Don’t like it as much in just water, though, personally.
Hello! Coming over from Boone. I will try lemon, I often use Lemongrass. I would love to see a EO insect & pest repellent safe for the home and porch! 🦟 🐍 Subscribed! ~Danielle from Florida
Apparently citronella is a good insect repellent. Flies, spiders, mosquitos, all kinds of creepy crawlies and insects supposedly do not like this or surfaces which it is sprayed on.
Really enjoy your video. I also love lemon oil. I replaced our vitamin C to lemon essential oil. Much cheaper and much effective. Hope you can share video also for bad migraine/vertigo. Thank you♥️
Oh, and I hear allot that lemon is really good for your hair- but can't really find any good information about WHY it's good for your hair. I'm wanting to make a very effective hair loss treatment for me, dht related hair loss for man. I have dry-ish hair, normally my scalp is a little oily, yet flaky doesn't that sound sexy! Lol
Your little disclaimer is useless. Dieters oils are no different than any other essential oils and can cause just as much harm as any other oils. STOP spreading this misinformation about ingesting oils, for crying out loud.
Our Oily House it’s not that I’m not “comfortable” with it. It’s flat out dangerous and you’re promoting this dangerous practice. It’s irresponsible, selfish, and inexcusable to promote ingesting oils just for the up-line and the profit margin.

Awww man that is such a bummer! Sorry that happened to you, but thanks for letting me know!
Good point. So important to do a spot test for sure.
You are right! I had a blend of citrus oils and it took this indelible mark off the wall!

You're welcome!
Do your homework first. Ingesting essential oils is NOT recommended and can cause tremendous damage to your intestinal linings.
Thank you so much
Single oil ~ very informative for beginners. TY
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Laura! Such great info right here!! 👍🏼
You're welcome!
I love your video and so educational.Thank You very much for your tips.
Thank you so much!
I just found your channel recently and really enjoy it! You offer so much great info🙂.
Thank you so much!
I did hear that you should not use any essential oils internally because of the potency and that they can burn your esophagus. Can you explain that?
Some are safe for internal use depends on the brand and which oil you are using. I have a video on it!
It may be because it is acidic, citrus especially is an acidic fruit, and the high concentration may possibly be abrasive on the lining and tissue of the esophagus. Think - it's an effective cleaner for all that it comes in contact with, much like vinegars etc.
Please don’t. It IS dangerous, only MLM companies don’t want you to know that.
How many drops will you need for body butter??
Great video Laura!
Thank you!
Iam using lemon essential oil and mixing with moisturizer after that my face become oily is it ok ?
Hm...I’m a little dubious, regarding the claim, that lemon essential oil will provide you with Vit.C. That’s a water soluble vitamin...it’s in the juice of the lemon, not the oil in the peel. And the amount in one drop would be tiny anyway.

a LOT of nutritionists say the highest concentration of vitamin c, in citrus is in the pith and peel.
So lemon oil has vitamin c?
Thank you for this I was just about to ask you yesterday if you knew a blend for to act as a magic eraser
Yes it works great for that!!
I love your channel!!!
Thank you!!!!
Hi, thank you for this video. I wanted to add this to a diy hand sanitizer. But plan to use it while outside. Would this be ok?
Lemon oil is photosensitive and shouldn't be used in direct sunlight.
What great tips. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome!
Great info! ❤️
Thank you!
Does Lemon have any adverse effects on dogs when used in a diffuser?
Thanks 😊

Will inhaling lemon essential oil helps losing weight?
It can help deter cravings.
Can u rub it on skin
Yes, but diluted it in a carrier oil first.
Do not diffuse it if you have cats!!
I also feel that the little disclaimer about sun exposure should have been much more obvious!
Didn’t know I’ve been spelling expecially wrong my whole life
Is this ok to vape?

IF you don't feel comfortable taking them internally I understand, I have had great results!

Jesus Christ!! No wonder this female is not married. She talks so much and says so little... No man could stick it out with her!
your so rude!! why you feel the need to comment on her site is beyond me.
Why would you say that? Forgetting you’re human too? Honestly you’re dumb and stupid
If you have nothing positive to say ever in your life shut the F UP!!
