"That's not a lot! And parents should note the hazard applies to every
kind of essential oil, but especially when it comes to camphor, clove,
lavender, eucalyptus, thyme, tea tree, and wintergreen oils. Making sure
not to overuse an application is key in preventing a poisoning
accident.
"What makes the oils, which are also sometimes diffused
into the air, especially dangerous for kids is that many smell good and
may seem appealing to eat. That is why proper storage in a locked
cabinet is key. Loden further notes kids' skin is thinner and may absorb
oil applied to them more quickly than adults."
Warning: Essential Oils Are Poisoning More and More Kids
"Although medicinal use of essential oils is seen as pseudoscience in the healthcare community,[13] essential oils retain considerable popular use among advocates of alternative medicine."
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
