Guest guest Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 If essential oils i beleive you should keep them in a dark container and out of sunlight as this may make them deteriorate quicker?...would tend myself to replace them after a year or so....they've been open etc etc...although not sure if thats actually necessary.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Put meat tenderizer in your beach bag too. When you go to the beach if you get stung by a jelly fish it draws out the toxins of the stings. I do not know if this helps when you get stung by a portugese man-of-war. I know it works because I have quite a history with the little devils. Rena -- Re: First aid in your purse? One thing I carry in my diaper bag is Meat Tenderizer. DD got stung by a wasp and it swelled something horrible and she screamed and cried for over an hour. I made a paste out of meat tenderizer and water and put it on the sting. In 20 minutes the swelling was gone and she was happy as a clam. I used the Hylands bite sting ointment afterwards. I would have used that first but the tenderizer is what was on hand. -- Aimee, Mom to Marah-Jade Born 09/17/03 vaccine free since 12/03 " Half of the modern drugs could well be thrown out of the window, except that the birds might eat them.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 For essential oils....in their neat form and in glass bottles kept out of direct sunlight - it is very long - 10 years or longer. Citrus is more volatile and may go more quickly.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Hey whatever works. I have heard that works BUT it is not a conveinent route when you get stung on the top of your arm or on the back of your thigh or on your back and there is no one else around. I am sorry but I can't exactly twist that way. Rena -- Re: First aid in your purse?

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2004 Report Share Posted September 18, 2004 Essential oils that are pure, undiluted and stored correctly - i.e. in dark-coloured, glass bottles with good fitting stoppers/tops at a reasonably cool temperature - will keep indefinitely. Citrus oils are produced via expression and are prone to precipitating, and this gives them a tendency to go rather rancid after about 3 years. Not always - I've had bottles of orange oil that have kept far in excess of this, but this would be about the average time for a citrus oil. Agree with Sheri on Calendula and Arnica unless you have them as mother tinctures, in which case should keep indefinitely if stored correctly. HTH.
