Discover TummyGize: Natural Wellness for Little Ones

The search for natural and gentle solutions for our children's well-being is a priority for many parents. In this context, Young Living's TummyGize essential oil blend emerges as an option specifically formulated to offer a sense of comfort and tranquility for children aged 2 to 12. Developed with a commitment to purity and safety, TummyGize combines several essential oils carefully selected for their comforting properties and mild aromatic profile, ideal for children's sensitive skin.

At ESSENIQ, we understand the importance of choosing safe and effective products for the youngest members of the family. Therefore, we present TummyGize as a valuable addition to your family wellness repertoire, offering a subtle and natural way to foster an environment of calm and help children feel more relaxed in times of need. This blend can be applied topically, always diluted and under adult supervision, to provide a relaxing experience that supports children's emotional and physical balance.

Botanical Origin and Oil Selection

TummyGize is a synergy designed for children's skin, combining essential oils obtained from various plants, each known for its unique qualities:

• Peppermint (Mentha piperita): We forgo high menthol concentration for children, but its oil is known for its fresh and invigorating aroma.


• Spearmint (Mentha spicata): Milder than peppermint, it offers a sweet and slightly minty aroma, providing a feeling of freshness.


• Ginger (Zingiber officinale): Valued for its warm and spicy aroma, it is appreciated for providing a sense of comfort.


• Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum): With its distinctive sweet and balsamic aroma, it evokes a feeling of warmth and well-being.


• Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare): It has an anise-like, sweet aroma, traditionally used for a sense of balance.


• Tangerine (Citrus reticulata): A mild and sweet citrus oil, known for its calming properties and its ability to uplift the mood.


• Anise (Pimpinella anisum): Offers a sweet, licorice-like aroma, similar to fennel, which contributes to an overall feeling of relief.

This combination has been carefully balanced to ensure that the aromatic profile is pleasant and that the oils are suitable for topical application on children, always with proper dilution.

Aromatic Profile and Properties

The aroma of TummyGize is a complex and harmonious blend combining fresh, sweet, and slightly spicy notes. Mint and spearmint hints predominate, providing a feeling of lightness, while ginger, cardamom, and fennel add comforting warmth. Citrus and anise contribute a gentle sweetness and anise-like scent, creating an olfactory profile that is both uplifting and relaxing. This aromatic combination is designed to promote an environment of tranquility and help children feel more comfortable.

From a wellness perspective, the essential oils in TummyGize are selected for their profiles that suggest an ability to help soothe and comfort. Application on the abdomen, an area that often experiences tension, may contribute to a general feeling of relief and well-being. It is important to remember that the experience with essential oils is personal and subjective, and what TummyGize seeks is to offer sensory support through its aroma and its comforting effect on the skin.

Suggested Uses in Aromatherapy for Children

TummyGize can be integrated into children's daily routines to offer comfort and support:

• Comforting massage: Dilute one drop of TummyGize with a vegetable carrier oil (such as Young Living V-6™ or fractionated coconut oil) and gently massage your child's abdomen in circular motions. Ideal for creating a moment of relaxation before sleep or during times of restlessness.


• Strategic topical application: In addition to the abdomen, a small diluted amount can be applied to the soles of the feet. This area is excellent for essential oil absorption due to its larger pores.


• Support during transitions: Useful for helping children adapt to new situations or routine changes that may cause them some discomfort. The familiar and comforting aroma can be an emotional anchor.


• Bedtime routine: A gentle massage with diluted TummyGize can be part of the nightly routine to promote relaxation and prepare the body for peaceful rest.

Directions for Use and Concentration

Safety is paramount when using essential oils on children. TummyGize is formulated for topical use, and it is always recommended to dilute it in a suitable carrier oil. Always under adult supervision:

• For children aged 2 to 5: Dilute 1 drop of TummyGize with 10-15 drops of Young Living V-6™ Enhanced Vegetable Oil Complex or a quality vegetable carrier oil such as coconut, jojoba, or sweet almond oil.


• For children aged 6 to 12: Dilute 1 drop of TummyGize with 5-10 drops of Young Living V-6™ Enhanced Vegetable Oil Complex or a vegetable carrier oil.


• Application: Once diluted, gently apply to the abdomen in a clockwise direction or to the soles of the feet.


• Frequency: Can be applied 1-2 times daily, as needed. Avoid contact with eyes, inner ears, and sensitive skin areas.

Synergies and Complements

TummyGize can complement other child wellness practices. For example, it can be used in combination with relaxation techniques such as reading a calm story, a warm bath, or listening to soft music. To enhance the feeling of comfort, consider creating a harmonious environment in the children's room, free from over-stimulation. Some aromatic synergies that could be considered, always with research and caution, are oils that also offer warmth and sweetness, such as lavender or Roman chamomile, applied separately and with appropriate dilution for children.

Important Precautions

Although TummyGize is formulated for children, some precautions are essential for its safe use:

• For external use only. Do not ingest.


• Mandatory dilution: Always dilute with a vegetable carrier oil before applying to the child's skin. Do not apply directly undiluted.


• Patch test: Before first use, apply a small diluted amount to an inconspicuous area of skin (e.g., forearm) to check for any adverse reaction.


• Avoid sensitive areas: Keep away from eyes, mucous membranes, inner ears, and other sensitive areas. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with a vegetable carrier oil, not water.


• Adult supervision: Always use under the supervision of a responsible adult.


• Storage: Keep out of reach of children, in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.


• Medical consultation: If your child has a pre-existing medical condition, is taking medication, or experiences any adverse reaction, consult a healthcare professional before use.


• Photosensitivity: Although citrus oils in TummyGize are in low concentrations, it is prudent to avoid direct sun or UV ray exposure to the area of application for 12 hours afterward to prevent any possible photosensitive reaction.
