This Organic Basil Essential Oil should not be taken internally. It can be used in food products such as sauces, soups and marinades provided that it is diluted first and evenly dispersed. When using essential oils for food use, care should be taken to use very little because a tiny amount will give off a lot of flavor. Sometimes, it is best if you dilute the essential oil in some organic olive oil or organic alcohol if you have some available. Both are available on the Nature's Flavors website. This organic basil oil is 100% NOP certified, kosher, gluten-free and vegan.
