1. Homology of organisms
Protoproteome-unicellular organism-plant-animal-human (similar recognition system)
A Recognition: Material exchange between human body and plants becomes possible
B Responsiveness: Plant components can cause human body to have physiological or psychological reactions (same language) < p
The chemical molecules of synthetic VC and VE are exactly the same as those of natural VC and VE, but the air structure is different, which is precisely the condition that this structure constitutes the recognition and response between organisms)
3. Why do plants produce essential oils?
a reproduction needs to attract pollination
b to prevent herbivores
c from attacking other plants and occupy growing space (ecological compatibility), such as cedar
d to inhibit or kill viruses, bacteria, fungi and insects that infringe on their bodies. (garlic, onion, ginger)

a, steam distillation (9% of plant essential oil can be used)
b. Chemical reagent extraction (extraction by chemical reagent reaction, ether or ethanol will damage the components of essential oil)
e, CO2 critical extraction (high cost, but high extraction quality)
6, preservation of essential oil
Essential oil is volatile, natural substance and sensitive to light and heat, so in order to prolong its shelf life, it should be stored in amber glass bottles.
Plastic bottles are not suitable for holding essential oils, because essential oils will damage plastics and pollute themselves. Essential oils should be kept in a cool place to avoid temperature changes, and the contents should be clearly marked with labels to ensure that children can't touch essential oils.
except for citrus bergamot essential oil, the average shelf life of essential oil is about two years. Cover the lid immediately after using the essential oil to avoid oxidation.
the essential oil prepared with base oil will shorten the shelf life and should be used as soon as possible after opening the lid.

Take rose essential oil as an example: 36 components have been found in all varieties, of which 86% are main components and 14% are many trace compounds. The different composition ratios of these two components determine their odor, quality and curative effect. Bulgarian rose contains 33-55% citronellol, 3-4% geraniol, 16-22% stearin, 1.5-2% phenylethanol, .2-2% sesquiterpene cyclic alcohol and some trace substances. 1. plant nomenclature-binaural nomenclature
the binomial nomenclature was founded by C. Linnaeus, the father of biological classification, in his book Flora published in 1753.
The binomial method refers to naming plants in Latin. The name of each plant is composed of two Latin words or words in Latin form. The first word is called the generic name, which is equivalent to "surname"; The second word is specific epithet, which is equivalent to "name". Sometimes a complete scientific name needs to be added with the author who named the plant at the earliest time, so the third word is the nominator.
Therefore, the generic name+specific epithet+named person's name is a complete scientific name, which is also the standard naming method of essential oil.

b medical theory of vibration frequency energy
1. Frequency is a method to measure the flow rate of electric energy between two points. In fact, everything has an electric frequency. Plant essential oil has a frequency several times higher than that of other herbs and foods.
2. For example, if calculated by hertz, the frequency of food is from to 15 Hz, and the frequency of dried herbs is from 15 to 2 Hz. The frequency of fresh herbs is from 2 to 27 Hz.
3. The frequency of plant essential oils starts from 52 Hz and can reach as high as 32 Hz.
4. A healthy body, from head to toe, has a normal frequency from 62 Hz to 78 Hz, while a person below 58 Hz is in a sub-health or disease state. A respiratory system
