Post 204 Measuring Liquids For Your Formulas 

Drops . ml .  Teaspoons . Tablespoons 

Adding essential oils to our product can be confusing. If you need to be specific in a recipe, you may need drops or grams. Grams are simply more accurate than a teaspoon for example, however, drops can also be an excellent way to make your recipe the same way time after time. Here is a measurement chart to help you to quickly determine what you need. When it comes to making your own products, you may also benefit from my post on Absorption Rate of Oils.

    I have been surfing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.

      I am actually in process I’m redoing my website because I am not mobile friendly enough. I have been around for a long time, prior to the mobile device craze and soon we will be expanding. Our site will be splitting into two separate websites in the near future. One will be all tea and leaves, the other will be all alternative medicine with the ability to customize everything that we do. You won’t be able to, herbal medicine in powder form, and daily vitamin packs. I’m not sure what my web guy has in mind but if you are still interested after the upgrade and you wish to contact him, you can let me know back and I will provide your information to him. Thank you for your support
