An essential oil is a concentrated hydrophobic liquid containing volatile (defined as "the tendency of a substance to vaporize") aroma compounds from plants.

Essential oils are also known as volatile oils, ethereal oils, aetherolea, or simply as the oil of the plant from which they were extracted, such as oil of clove.

An oil is "essential" in the sense that it contains the "essence of" the plant's fragrance—the characteristic fragrance of the plant from which it is derived.

The term essential used here does not mean indispensable as with the terms essential amino acid or essential fatty acid which are so called since they are nutritionally required by a given living organism.

In contrast to fatty oils, essential oils evaporate completely without leaving a stain (residue) when dabbed onto filter paper.

A carcinogen is any substance, radionuclide, or radiation that promotes carcinogenesis, the formation of cancer.

This may be due to the ability to damage the genome or to the disruption of cellular metabolic processes.

Several radioactive substances are considered carcinogens, but their carcinogenic activity is attributed to the radiation, for example gamma rays and alpha particles, which they emit.

Common examples of non-radioactive carcinogens are inhaled asbestos, certain dioxins, and tobacco smoke.

Although the public generally associates carcinogenicity with synthetic chemicals, it is equally likely to arise in both natural and synthetic substances.

Carcinogens are not necessarily immediately toxic; thus, their effect can be insidious.

Hygiene is a set of practices performed to preserve health.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), "Hygiene refers to conditions and practices that help to maintain health and prevent the spread of diseases." Personal hygiene refers to maintaining the body's cleanliness.

Alternative medicine, fringe medicine, pseudomedicine or simply questionable medicine is the use and promotion of practices which are unproven, disproven, impossible to prove, or excessively harmful in relation to their effect — in the attempt to achieve the healing effects of medicine.

They differ from experimental medicine in that the latter employs responsible investigation, and accepts results that show it to be ineffective.

The scientific consensus is that alternative therapies either do not, or cannot, work.

In some cases laws of nature are violated by their basic claims; in some the treatment is so much worse that its use is unethical.

Alternative practices, products, and therapies range from only ineffective to having known harmful and toxic effects.

Naturopathy or naturopathic medicine is a form of alternative medicine that employs an array of pseudoscientific practices branded as "natural", "non-invasive", and as promoting "self-healing".

The ideology and methods of naturopathy are based on vitalism and folk medicine, rather than evidence-based medicine.

Naturopathic practitioners generally recommend against following modern medical practices, including but not limited to medical testing, drugs, vaccinations, and surgery.

Instead, naturopathic study and practice rely on unscientific notions, often leading naturopathic doctors to diagnoses and treatments that have no factual merit.
