Lime Essential Oil
Citrus aurantifolia, also known as Mexican or key lime, is a shrub-like evergreen tree native to tropical Southeast Asia. It produces smaller, more aromatic fruit than the related Citrus x latifolia, or Persian lime, which is more commonly available in the United States as a culinary fruit. Lime essential oil has a sharp, green, citrus aroma that uplifts the senses when used aromatically or applied topically. Lime Vitality™ essential oil has a delightful citrus flavor, contains antioxidants, and may provide general wellness support when taken internally.* Lime and Lime Vitality are the same essential oil.

Diffusing Notes
These are approximate drops. Adjust recipes to your needs. If a recipe is too strong for you, add fewer drops. Do you need more? Just add more, but no more than 8-12 drops for all of our diffusers with the exception of the Aria diffuser which requires 15-25 drops.
Tip: When you first begin diffusing, start with less essential oil than listed in the recipes and build to more as desired. You should give your body time to adjust to the essential oils. Almost all the Young Living diffusers are ultrasonic which provides a cool-mist humidifier along with the essential oils. These diffusers are safe to run all day. Pay attention to the size of the room because the size will impact the intensity of diffusing. Nebulizers and atomizers are different than ultrasonic diffusers because they do not use water. For these, note the time limit for diffusing stated on each individual oil bottle.
