I was wondering why I get so relaxed in the evenings after a large pris of Skruf, so decided to do a little search on Bergamot and this is what I found. Maybe not related but interesting info:
Bergamot can be found in Italy, Morocco and the Ivory Coast, it originated in Asia. Bergamot is a small tree with long, oval green leaves with white flowers. The bergamot bears a small round fruit that is yellow when ripe. Bergamot's essential oil is extracted by cold pressed process from the fruit peel. It has a spicy, delicate scent that is light and refreshing.
Bergamot is used as an antidepressant, and is calming and refreshing for the nervous system. It is highly useful as an antiseptic and is used as an insect repellent. When using as an insect repellent use caution and avoid strong sunlight, bergamot contains furocoumarins, which can cause photosensitivity.
Bergamot received its name from the city where it was first cultivated, which was Bergamot, Italy. It is said that Christopher Columbus brought the tree from the Canary Islands to Spain and Italy. Bergamot oil was very valued oil during the 15th to 16th century; it was used in teas and perfumes. In voodoo it is thought to ward off evil and danger.
In today's society bergamot is also very valued oil, it is used to aid in the digestion process, in treating urinary tract infections , and also with colic. The essential oil of Bergamot is used for the treatment of acne, eczema, varicose ulcers and seborrhea of the skin and scalp.
For people with sensitive skin it is advised to use in moderation because if used in excess may irritate the skin.
EDIT: Fixed couple of mistakes. I think the original article was software translated from a foreign language as there were some goofy mistakes.
