In Brazil, essential oils belong to the area of cosmetology, and, despite the rigorous certification and testing by Anvisa, ingestion is not among the institution's analyzes. In addition, essential oils are ultra-concentrated chemical compounds and can intoxicate you and even corrode your mucous membranes, such as mouth, throat, esophagus, and stomach. Therefore, we do not recommend ingesting essential oils without the proper guidance and monitoring of professionals with qualified training. To learn more about the subject, we have prepared a text on the ingestion of essential oils, available on our blog.
