A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine revealed that lavender oil can cause breast growth in prepubescent boys. The effect of lavender oil on female breast growth is uncertain.The Study

# The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences conducted a study that found a link between the use of lavender and tea tree oils and prepubertal gynecomastia, a condition that causes breast growth in boys.

@camboy1132 Thanks for the tip man, I'll check into that. :0)

[camboy1132]

they found that lavender causes breasts in boys and men. produces estrogen in male body. look it up on the internet. that mean weight gain in the body. so I switched to Jasmine or mint and tea tea oil.

Wow this was really helpful. I have been looking up natural cleaning tips for your home (I don't think it is necessary to spend so much money on Seventh Generation this and Ecover that). It's wonderful to see someone actually demonstrate! Do you have any tips on nontoxic pest control. I find myself with insect infestations every now and then (flies, mosquitos, roaches, spiders, ants, weird bugs I have never seen before). Thank you:)

Thanks. I have a few of those empty bottles, now I know how to fill them! Look forward to more money saving, and less harmful ways of living.
