1. Lemon Essential Oil

Lemon essential oil comes with many benefits. It not only benefits mood and concentration but it also has an ability to lower fevers, heal infections, and relieve asthma.

With a few drops of lemon to your glass, you can make this your refreshing morning drink to ward off toxins in the blood and to keep away infections and other diseases. [Editor’s Note: Although essential oils are safe to use internally, please make sure you are buying high-quality food-safe oils, using a small amount, and not using them long term.]

2. Eucalyptus Essential Oil

This essential oil has many surprising benefits, as well. It is refreshing and stimulating. And because of the fact that this oil has antibacterial and antiviral properties that can fight flu, colds, coughs, and bronchitis, it is considered one of the oils that can benefit the body’s immune system.
Eucalyptus oil is also a powerful aid for regenerating lung tissue and function. It promotes proper blood circulation in the system, cleanses the blood, and also promotes lung health.
