Cang Er Zi Essential Oil, 5ml

Cang Er ZI essential oil is locally steam distilled from the mature fruit and seed of the xanthium fruit.

This essential oil features a delightful fruity aroma of ripe Concord grapes, accented by a subtle menthol top note. Its lightweight, calming nature allows for direct application to the nasal mucous membranes, providing a gentle, cleansing effect on the sinuses.

In Chinese Medicine, the seed of the xanthium fruit, Cang Er Zi, is an indispensable go-to medicinal for treating conditions related to colds, allergies, and sinusitis. Accordingly, it is distinguished for its ability to open the nasal passages, alleviate sinus pain and sinus-related headache, and clear blocked nasal passages. 

Cang Er Zi has a warm nature and is particularly beneficial for the lungs and the Lung channel. This essential oil can be used for steam inhalation to treat various sinus and nasal problems, while also helping to warm the area and break up phlegm.

Furthermore, Cang Er Zi is renowned for its capacity to eliminate wind and dampness, a property that has been employed for thousands of years to treat irritated, itchy skin and various rashes. This essential oil, rich in Ethyl Linoleate and Vitamin E, offers a gentle soothing effect on the skin and can be applied topically to help address dermatological issues.

Whether used as a steam or applied topically, our Cang Er ZI essential oil offers a warming, opening, dispersing, and relieving effect. It can be used gently during painful winter sinusitis or swollen, itchy rash outbreaks.
