Additionally, the oil has been tested for its effect upon maladies of the central nervous system—a problem for which it has been used in traditional medicine since ancient times. The amazing thing about the oil is that it is gentle enough to use on animals and is suggested for dogs and horses — fungal infections of the skin and dermatitis.
