Adrenal Glands:
Spruce oil restores depleted adrenal glands. Combined with Pine (Pinus silvestris or Pinus pinaster) and applied externally over the kidney area it will reenergize. Spruce oil combined with Cedarwood/Atlas Cedar (Cedrus atlanticus) and Peppermint oil results in a mixture that-- when applied to the body after the morning shower-- will, for several hours, substitute for morning coffee.
Caution: Only use spruce oil externally.
