Hey thanks Roy!
I’m loading up on sesquiterpenes right now. Can’t get enough.
Thanks for keeping me in the loop.

Hi Kerry,

I thought this would interest you.

IN STUDIES CONDUCTED AT VIENNA AND BERLIN UNIVERSITIES, researchers found that sesquiterpenes in the essential oils of sandalwood and frankibcense can increase levels of oxygen in the brain by up to 28%. Such an increase in brain oxygen may lead to a heightened level of activity in the hypothalamus and limbic systems of the brain, which can have dramatic effects not only on emotions, learning and attitude, but also on many physical processes of the body, such as immune function, hormone balance,and energy levels. High levels of sesquiterpenes also occur in melissa, myrrh, clove and cedarwood oil. (Desk reference for Essential Oils)

Catchy, very catchy……. I love your writing style. You had me captivated in part because of your style and also my interest in sleep-walking. Kacey was a sleep-walker when he was young. I used to find him in front of the tv in the wee hours of the morning and it wasn’t turned on.
You should write a book.. I would buy it.
Thanks again
Toni
