Properties
The essential oil of khella is powerfully antispasmodic. This power is felt on the respiratory, biliary, urinary tracts, on the coronaries. The best documented use concerns the prevention of asthma attacks and coronary heart disease.
The khella favors our capacities of perception, well beyond a strict effect of mental stimulation.
Use
In prevention of asthma attacks, we consider the essential oil of khella in small proportion, in mixtures incorporating, for example, the essential oils of inula, rock garden hyssop, tansy ... We will limit ourselves to transcutaneous use, taking care not to expose the skin to daylight immediately after application.
