Essential Oils and Their Constituents as Anticancer Agents: A Mechanistic View

In vitro comparative analysis of antiproliferative activity of essential oil from mandarin peel and its principal component limonene.

Application Suggestions (See Essential Oil Usage for more information and a Dilution Chart.)
Topical: Dilute with a carrier oil, unscented lotion or unscented cream and apply on area of concern or as desired. Consider using a roll-on applicator for ease of application of prediluted oil.

Since Mandarin Red does not have a limiting dilution parameter, we suggest that adults follow the General Guidelines found on the Dilution Chart, which is:

2-3% for daily application

Up to 25% for short-term use

Children: For infants and children, please follow the Dilution Chart on the Babies and Children page.

Inhalation: Diffuse or use a personal Nasal Inhaler

Internal: Mandarin is suitable for internal use within safe parameters if such use is deemed appropriate. We feel that internal use is rarely *needed* and should only be used with respect for how concentrated the oils are. HEO does not advocate internal use of essential oils without appropriate knowledge and understanding of how to administer, for what purpose, how much, which essential oils, safety concerns and so on. In our experience, essential oils are generally more effective used topically with proper dilution or inhaled. Kurt Schnaubelt Ph.D. notes that "French aromatherapy literature contains many references to using oils orally." He goes on to note that "generally 1 drop is always enough when ingesting essential oils." A potential toxicity hazard could occur when untrained people use essential oils orally and ingest too much. Keep in mind that while medical doctors or health care practitioners may prescribe essential oils for internal use, they are trained and experienced in the safe application of essential oils. It is not a matter of using "French" or "British" methods, it's a matter of experience and appropriate application.

1. Just had to share -- I purchased Mandarin Red-- I am SOOOO in love with this scent.. At first it was -- this is different -- now I can't get enough of it. - Jody

2. We use Mandarin Red when someone has an upset stomach. It works great! - Candace

3. I love the scent of the Mandarin Red and have used it in my bath salts for a relaxing soak! Also, one night as I was trying to fall asleep, my legs began to get that restless, jittery feeling, so I looked through my EOs to see if there were any that might help. I decided to use a drop of the Mandarin Red on the sole of one foot, and within a minute or two, no more restless leg! I have since applied it several times with the same result and experienced a wonderful settling down to go to sleep. - Esther

Safety
When properly diluted, Mandarin is non-toxic, non-irritating and non-sensitizing.

Phototoxic: Mandarin essential oil from the fruit rind is not phototoxic, whereas Mandarin from the leaf is. HEO does not offer Mandarin Leaf (Tisserand).

Avoid contact with the eyes and other sensitive areas. Essential oils are both lipophilic and hydrophobic. Lipophilic means they are attracted to fat— like the membranes of your eyes and skin. They are also hydrophobic, meaning they do not like water. Applying a carrier oil will create another fat for the essential oil to be attracted to other than the membranes of the eyes or skin. Tisserand suggests: "With essential oils, fatty oil has been suggested as an appropriate first aid treatment, though the advantage of saline [eyewash] is that the eyes can be continually flushed, and this is less easy with fatty oil.” We are not aware of a case where essential oil in the eyes caused permanent injury or long-term discomfort, but if you feel concerned, please call your health care provider.
