Grapefruit organic

Ever since it became clear that Grapefruit juice has unwanted drug interactions it lost much of its popularity. As a result Grapefruit cultivation plummeted and with it the availability of a wonderful by-product, Grapefruit peel essential oil. After a while in which no Grapefruit peel oil was available some cultivation returned and there is now limited availability. The unfortunate aspect is that the price has risen sharply, as Grapefruit EO is no longer a readily available by-product, but the main product that has to return the cost of cultivation. 

Be that as it may, the current batch is a stunning example of a much needed Citrus oil with a wide spectrum of uses, from room air freshening and the prevention of viral infections to uplifting mood and spirits.
