Our Greenland Moss Essential Oil is a powerfully healing, fresh-scented oil that conjures images of undisturbed, dewy moonlit wilderness. Even with its wild-forest fragrance, Greenland Moss oil is one of the most powerful essential oils in Living Libations’ arsenal.

Native North Americans used the sap and leaves of the Greenland Moss plant to detoxify the internal organs, prevent illness, calm frazzled nerves, and bring trapped emotions into the light of consciousness. The plant’s leaves were chewed to boost the immune system, and simply to enjoy their sweet flavor. Commonly known as Labrador Tea, Greenland Moss oil has been historically used as a marinade for cooking meats, an ingredient in brewing beer, and an additive for use in facial steam baths.

Size: 5 ml, 15 ml and 30 ml

Organic Ingredients

100% Greenland moss (Ledum Groenlandicum) essential oil.

Around one thousand kilograms of wild-harvest Greenland Moss are required to make one kilo of oil. It grows in peat bogs in out of the way places, and even well north of the snow line. This certainly contributes to the power of its effects.

As we have seen, essential oils interact with many processes in the liver. Their induction and inhibition of Phase I and Phase II detoxification enzymes is but one example. Traditional knowledge asserts that certain oils, most importantly Carrot Seed and Greenland Moss, do in some way support the regeneration of the liver.

Through Anne-Marie Giraud-Robert’s work. She attributes the ability to lower elevated concentrations of transaminase enzymes to this oil. In other words, the essential oil reverses degenerative processes in the liver and restores the integrity of its cell membranes!
