SCIENCE

Acacia Natural Sciences is a pioneer in the development of Essential Oils (EOs) to complement standard care treatments for various human and animal health conditions. We take pride in our expertise, catering to the needs of both human and animal health care and farming industries by offering cutting-edge feed additives and natural products.

Essential Oils (EOs) are natural plant-derived compounds known for their diverse biological activities, which have been used for therapeutic purposes for centuries. These complex mixtures consist of volatile chemical compounds belonging to various chemical classes, such as terpenoids, isothiocyanates, and phenylpropanoids. Extraction methods, mainly steam distillation, yield these potent compounds, and their beneficial therapeutic properties are well-documented.

EOs exhibit remarkable functions as anti-fungals, anti-virals, and anti-bacterials, making them valuable tools in combating infectious agents. Moreover, a term frequently associated with EO function is “immunomodulation,” where certain active ingredients in EOs can either boost or suppress the immune system based on medical needs and treatment objectives.

For certain disease conditions involving inflammatory and autoimmune responses, attenuating immune function can be highly beneficial. Additionally, preventing an exaggerated inflammatory response to infections safeguards the host from potential harm that may outweigh the threat posed by the infectious pathogen.

In summary, Essential Oils are natural plant extracts with a wide range of biological activities. Their therapeutic potential includes antimicrobial properties and immunomodulation, making them valuable allies in promoting human health and well-being.
