SWIM drinks the coffee as soon as the effects kick in.

I’m inclined to believe that brand means very little and that most likely all the batches from all the vendors will vary in elemicin content. If you look at the data on elemi oil, all of the data shows different levels of elemicin and many other compounds. It doesn’t look at all consistent to me. Levels range from 1-20% elemicin for elemi oil from the Philippines.

You have the same issue with nutmeg oil. It varies a lot.

imPsimon, did you ever try nutmeg oil? If so, did it also cause this effect on breathing for you? SWIM has not tried nutmeg oil yet.

The 10 ml bottle of elemi oil SWIM has been using is pretty much gone, there’s not enough for anymore testing. SWIM’s new bottle is unopened, also a 10 ml bottle, and this is from FV.

SWIM has tried 1 capsule of pure elemicin a friend got as a sample. This is very good, clean, but not much different from SWIM’s oil (after the DMSO extraction). SWIM’s friend got the oil as a free sample from a vendor in China. The price for the elemicin is SUPER EXPENSIVE. She will not be buying any more of it, and can’t get another free sample, unless another vendors is willing to give out a free sample. The price of the elemicin she said was about $1000 for 1 gram of elemicin! Holy crap! I’ve seen a place selling it for about $400 for 1 gram, $1000 for 5 grams. Still, that’s a lot of money compared to the price of the oil. SWIM will be sticking with the oil.
