reducing fever by virtue of
it antiviral, antibacterial and antiseptic properties. Therefore,
whether the fever is due to either viral or bacterial infection,
this oil can help you cool it down and soothe your

2.Antiviral
Dealing with viruses is not an easy task, and it is very
different than killing bacteria. Viruses develop a protective
coating on them, called a cyst, which protects them from the
extreme conditions of their surroundings, and is so tough that it
can withstand almost anything. Viruses remain dormant within their
cyst until it finds a host, which is when the cyst opens up and the
virus comes out of its dormancy and starts multiplying. It is at
this stage that the Essential Oil of Palma Rosa curbs and inhibits
the duplication of the virus and successfully eliminates
it.

and kidneys. It also prevents external bacterial infections on
the skin, armpits, head,
eyebrows, eyelids, and ears.
