What other people think
'It is, above all, anti-viral and immunostimulant. It is
particularly effective against flu and flu-like virus infections, especially if
used at the first sign of shivering, etc. A few drops in the bath immediately
before going to bed will often avert an attack of the flu, and if that is not
possible, Ravensara used intensively (in m,assage, baths and inhalations) can
often stop flu in one day' - from Aromatherapy an A - Z by Patricia
Davis.
