This oil is a great anti viral as well as being an immunostimulant. It is said that upon feeling the very first inkling of the flu coming on, if Ravintsara is used in the bath immediately before going to bed the possibility of warding off the infection is great! Ravintsara is a good oil to use in your diffuser or room spray during the flu season to keep the air around you clear of any airborne viruses. As an expectorant, Ravintsara works well when treating sinusitis, bronchitis and whooping cough, etc.

This oils blends well with Pine essential oil, and Thyme essential oil when treating these conditions.
