A combination of essential oils such as Peppermint , Eucalyptus, and Caraway.
Alfred Vogel first wrote about Po-Ho oil in March 1929 in his first magazine, Das Neue Leben (A Fresh Start). The name comes from Po-Ho the (Mandarin) Chinese for peppermint, one of the five essential oils in this refreshing classic amongst oils.
Peppermint essential oil: 50%
Eucalyptus essential oil: 30%
Juniper essential oil: 14%
Caraway essential oil:4%
Fennel essential oil: 2%
Put a few drops of Po-Ho oil onto a handkerchief or bunched-up tissue, hold it to your nose and inhale. You can also put the essential oil soaked handkerchief into your pillowcase or next to your pillow to help you sleep better.
If you need to inhale an extra boost of essential oils, put one drop of Po-Ho into a steaming-hot bowl of water, lean over, cover your head and bowl with a small towel, and inhale. Do this carefully as the oils can initially feel quite strong to your eyes when you inhale.
Po-Ho essential oil can also be rubbed onto the front of your upper chest – your body heat will release a constant supply of essential oils for you to inhale. 1 drop of Po-Ho should be mixed with 15 drops of base oil before rubbing onto your chest.
Do not use as eye drops, nose drops or as a nasal spray.
Avoid contact with the eyes and sensitive skin or other sensitive areas of the body.
Wash your hands thoroughly after touching the oil.
Do not use Po-Ho if you are allergic to any of the essential oils.
Best stored in a cool place.
