High Blood Sugar Essential Oils & Balancing Body Oil Recipe

Can essential oils for high blood sugar be used to manage and balance levels? Research suggests they can! This is great news for diabetics who struggle daily with inconsistent blood sugar levels.

Powerful Balancing Synergy Blend

One of the most intriguing things about essential oils for balancing blood sugar levels is the effect of synergy, which is the phenomenon in which combinations of oils work together to make even stronger effects. That’s why we’re so frequently making blends and formulas of oils rather than just using one here and another there. Teamwork makes the dream work, right?

One prominent study out of Georgetown in 2005 took note of the benefits of synergy when they studied essential oils for irregular blood sugar levels and diabetes. Instead of isolating a single oil for their research, they experimented with blends of multiple oils that have been suggested as beneficial for diabetes (1):

  • Blend 1 was composed of pumpkin seed oil, extra virgin olive oil, oregano, cinnamon, fenugreek, cumin and fennel.
  • Blend 2 was composed of pumpkin seed oil, extra virgin olive oil, oregano, cinnamon, fenugreek, cumin, myrtle,
    allspice, and ginger.
  • Blend 3 was composed of pumpkin seed oil, extra virgin olive oil, oregano, cinnamon, fenugreek, cumin and myrtle.

All of the essential oils for high blood sugar blends were able to improve insulin sensitivity when taken internally, which can be replicated by including oil blends diluted into a carrier and consumed in capsules, drinks, and recipes. Alternatively, you can create a body oil and apply with similar results!
