Generally regarded as safe (GRAS) by the FDA
Internal:
Although the quality of Selah Oils is excellent, it is not advised to take essential oils internally unless under the guidance of a certified physician who is also certified in aromatherapy. We recommend getting internal dosing instructions from a licensed physician as some essential oils are not recommended for oral consumption. This is in no way a reflection on our oil quality, only a matter of safety and caution with respect to how concentrated essential oils are. When used within safe parameters, and under your physician's care, the quality of our essential oils is such that they can be used internally if deemed appropriate.
However, with that said, it is important to remember the extreme concentration of essential oils. "Using essential oils by rubbing them into the skin or via inhalation is in many cases more effective than oral delivery" (Schnaubelt 96).
All cautions listed for individual oils do not include those cautions from ingestion.
Cautions
Caution using with drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
General EO Cautions:
All cautions listed for individual oils do not include those cautions from ingestion. It is not advised to take essential oils internally unless under the guidance of a licensed physician who is also certified in aromatherapy.
If for any reason you get essential oils in your eyes, put carrier oil along the eyebrows above the eyes and on the cheekbones below the eyes.
Do not put essential oils inside your ear canal.

Love This Company
The oils are high quality and I am comfortable supporting a company that does not promote the use of oils for spiritual healing or other New Age practices.
Great for Stomach Uses
This oil smells terrible! But I still gave it 5 stars. Mixed with Tummy Troubles and Liver Cleanse, it has helped immensely with symptoms from chronic diarrhea. When I use it on a regular basis, it eliminates my symptoms. I can tell when I forget to use it!
