Abstract
This epidemic in obesity has sparked a wave of weight loss product, diet books and gimmicks to aid people in their battle for lose weight. Many products work but nothing works better than “good old-fashioned food choices and body movement for effective weight loss” [2]. With that being said, essential oils along with better food choices and exercise, can support one goal to achieving weight loss. There are several oils that will aide in weight loss but we will focus on three of the most popular, grapefruit Citrus x paradisi, cinnamon Cinnamomum zeylanicum syn C verum, and lastly ginger zingiber officiale.
