Description

 

Newly sourced from Madagascar, doTERRA Ginger Essential Oil is derived from the fresh rhizome of the ginger plant—the subterranean stalk of a plant that shoots out the root system. A featured ingredient in many Asian dishes, Ginger has a hot, fragrant flavor when used as a kitchen spice. In Western tradition, Ginger is most often used in sweets—gingerbread and ginger snaps being two examples. If you feel your energy lagging in the late afternoon, diffuse Ginger oil for an earthy and fresh aroma.
