Myrrh CO2 vs EO

Myrrh CO2 extract is different from the steam-distilled Myrrh ethereal oil. Both versions of Myrrh share many of the same therapeutic benefits. However, the two different extraction processes result in oils with different aroma, colour, and consistency. CO2 extracted oil contains unique heavy molecules that cannot be extracted by steam distillation. That is why Vizü decided to source for the highest quality CO2 extraction of Myrrh which is most often prized by herbalists and practitioners of traditional medicine.

What is CO2 extract?
CO2 extracted oils are high quality oils extracted using carbon dioxide in liquid form, as the solvent for lipophilic plant ingredients. There are not any waste streams and emissions involved in this eco-friendly technology. When carbon dioxide is converted to liquid by using low temperatures and high pressure, it becomes a safe and effective solvent that allows all the desirable active constituents of the botanical to be collected without the risk of heat, light and air (oxygen) degradation. Once the extraction is complete, the carbon dioxide is allowed to return to its natural gaseous state, leaving behind only the extracted essence of the plant. CO2 extracted oils are the closest representation of the natural plant ever achieved. Highly concentrated and more complete than essential oils, these CO2 extracts can be used at low amount in carrier oils and other base products.
