Linalool

*DISCLAIMER* Anecdotal Article



Why would so many different plants produce Linalool? Its anti-microbial properties are protective for the plant and represent a potential therapeutic use in people. Whether it was used as an early antibiotic is unknown, but linalool (often in the form of lavender or peanut stems and leaves) has been used in traditional medicine practices for its sedative and anti-epileptic properties. Linalool also makes the immune system more resilient to the destructive effects of stress. Stress causes a shift in the distribution of white blood cells in the body (i.e., the cells of the immune system); the percent of lymphocytes decrease, and neutrophils increase. Linalool prevents this shift, and in doing so, prevents the stress-induced changes. Linalool is indispensible when it comes to treating Anxiety & Seizure Disorders.
