Spotlight on Caraway

There’s something so comforting about the warm, slightly sweet aroma and taste of caraway. Known best as a culinary spice, caraway seeds also carry a long history of supporting digestion and overall wellness. Caraway Vitality brings those same benefits in a convenient essential oil form—perfect for your kitchen, wellness cabinet, or daily routine.

JUST A DROP OF CARAWAY VITALITY

Adds warm, herbaceous, and slightly sweet flavor to baked goods, stews, or teas.

Traditionally used to support digestion and ease occasional bloating or discomfort.

Can be taken as a dietary supplement to promote overall wellness.

Supports a balanced immune system and healthy weight management when paired with lifestyle practices.

Beyond flavor, this powerful oil has been prized for centuries for its digestive support, calming properties, and wellness benefits. Whether you add a drop to your favorite bread recipe, steep it in a soothing tea, or use it as part of your wellness rituals, Caraway Vitality is a versatile ally in your routine.

BACKGROUND

Caraway Vitality essential oil is steam distilled from the seeds of the caraway plant (Carum carvi), an herb in the carrot family. Its distinctive, slightly peppery yet sweet flavor makes it a staple in kitchens across Europe and the Middle East.

Caraway seeds have been cultivated for thousands of years, with evidence dating back to the Stone Age. Ancient Egyptians buried caraway seeds with their loved ones for protection in the afterlife, while Greeks and Romans used them as a household spice and digestive aid. In medieval Europe, caraway became a common kitchen staple, particularly in rye bread, sauerkraut, and liqueurs.

This essential oil is known for its ability to ease occasional digestive discomfort, support a healthy immune response, and provide gentle cleansing properties. It’s a wellness oil you’ll reach for often, whether in the kitchen or as part of your health routine.

CARAWAY VITALITY AND EMOTIONS

Caraway has long been associated with grounding and emotional release. Its warm, comforting aroma can calm the mind and help dispel feelings of tension or unease. Taken internally or diffused alongside other supportive oils, Caraway Vitality can encourage emotional cleansing, making space for clarity and inner peace. Try adding a drop to warm tea during stressful days—it helps settle both the stomach and the spirit.

CARAWAY VITALITY AND HEALTHY WEIGHT

Supporting digestion and metabolic health is key for maintaining a healthy weight. Caraway Vitality may help the body process foods more efficiently and reduce occasional bloating or discomfort after meals. Adding a drop to water, a smoothie, or herbal tea can help you stay consistent with your wellness goals while enjoying its subtle flavor.

CARAWAY VITALITY AND IMMUNE HEALTH

Caraway Vitality also supports a balanced immune system. Its cleansing properties can help the body defend against occasional environmental threats, while its antioxidant compounds provide extra support. Use it as a dietary supplement, especially during seasonal changes, to keep your immune health strong.

KEY CONSTITUENTS

Carvone: Provides digestive and antispasmodic support; helps ease occasional stomach upset.

ESSENTIAL OILS

When you have a cough or cold or feel one coming on, you just want to be comfortable – especially if you still have to work, travel, or take care of your children or loved ones! (click on the individual oil pictures to learn more about the oil)

Thieves Essential Oil Blend:

This blend is our go-to for all things immune system related! It's the blend infused into the chest rub and cough drops we just talked about – and for good reason! We love to apply and diffuse this blend, add Thieves Vitality to a mug of echinacea tea, or add it to epsom salts for an immune supporting detox bath!

Frankincense Essential Oil:

Frankincense is an immune and respiratory powerhouse! This historical oil has been used for centuries for health. Apply it with Thieves, Lemon, R.C. or Purification to the chest and back, add a few drops to the Thieves Chest Rub when you apply, add Frankincense to epsom salts for a detox bath, and diffuse this oil when you're feeling down. Get it in, on and around you as much as possible!

Lemon Essential Oil:

Lemon is a wonderful oil for soothing cough and creating comfort in times of congestion. Diffuse it, apply it with Frankincense and Thieves Chest Rub, add a few drops of Lemon Vitality to echinacea tea, and add Lemon to detox baths. Lemon is high in limonene, a constituent highly regarded for its immune system support.

R.C. Essential Oil Blend:

Standing for Respiratory Comfort, R.C. essential oil blend is a gentle eucalyptus blend that we love for soothing and comforting the respiratory system. Diffuse, apply, and add this oil to detox baths as much as possible. This is a great choice for little ones too!

Purification Essential Oil Blends:

This purifying blend is another favorite for immune and respiratory needs. Containing Tea Tree, Lemongrass, Myrtle and other purifying oils, it makes a great addition to your comfort routine during times of cough or cold. Diffuse, apply, and add to bath salts.

Raindrop Technique Collection: This curated set of essential oils is a powerful tool for promoting health, wellness and vitality – both proactively and for acute needs since the oils included can be incredible tools for healing! This collection features nine essential oils with immune and respiratory support properties. We love them for making rollers and adding to detox baths!

Thieves chest rub & cough

THIEVES CHEST RUB

A must-have for every medicine cabinet, Thieves Chest Rub is a 100% plant-based alternative for over-the-counter cough and congestion relief. This natural chest rub soothes sniffles, coughs, and congestion for the whole family with a powerful blend of essential oils and natural, plant-based ingredients.Plus the easy-to-use bottle doesn't even require you to get your hands messy!! The formula is free of petroleum, parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, synthetic perfumes or dyes, artificial colors, or preservatives and still packs an incredible punch when it comes to cough and cold! Pure ingredients and all the power of Thieves kicking that chest congestion to the curb? We will take some of that!

Sadly, conventional chest rubs are filled with synthetic additives and diluents, and even the ‘natural' options are less than ideal. Many options use petroleum as a base. Petroleum (petrolatum) is often not fully refined in the US, which means it can be contaminated with toxic chemicals called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.Many ‘natural' chest rubs also contain impure essential oils or other lower-grade components that don't meet the same standards as the ingredients found in Young Living products. The active ingredient in the most popular over the counter chest rub is actually a synthetic version of Ravintsara essential oil! And we are always going to choose the original over a synthetic copy, especially when it comes to our health and our family's health!

THIEVES COUGH DROPS

Get natural, quick, and safe cough, congestion, and sore throat relief Thieves Essential Oil-Infused Cough Drops! These are a staple in our cough and cold toolbox. They are easy to keep at home or take on the go, made with naturally derived ingredients, taste great, and work wonders!

Thieves Essential Oil-Infused Cough Drops are minty, spicy, and sweet without processed sugar, dyes, artificial flavors, or preservatives found in conventional cough drops. Infused with Cinnamon Bark, Peppermint, and Lemon essential oils, these menthol-based drops make soothing coughs and colds simple and tasty.

THIEVES HARD LOZENGES

Infused with Young Living's signature Thieves essential oil blend of Clove, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus, Rosemary, and Lemon essential oils, these lozenges are one of the things we reach for to keep our immune systems firing on a daily basis! The Thieves Hard Lozenges are a sugar-free dietary supplement to add to your daily wellness regimen with more of a cinnamon taste than a menthol one.We use these daily when we need a lozenge, when we travel to bolster our immune systems, and sometimes in place of the Thieves Cough Drops when we are out or if someone doesn't want the strong menthol taste of the drops (but it's that menthol that helps open the airways and soothe the throat!).
