A research institute opened a shop. This is it.
The Botanical Lab is the public side of Nutraceuticals Research Institute, a Huntsville clinical research organization that has been running botanical trials since 2003. The trials stay in the back. The good-smelling part is out front.
THE FOUNDER
Dr. Jessie Cavanaugh
PhD, post-doctoral training at Harvard Medical School, over 30 peer-reviewed publications, over a dozen published books, and Scientific Director of the National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy. Dr. Cavanaugh has spent more than twenty years designing the studies other people cite.
She also has five kids, which is how she knows which blends actually get used.
How we formulate
Research First
If there's evidence on an ingredient, we use it. If there isn't, we'll let you know.
Oil Selection
The best oil for the job, at a strength that makes sense for how you'll use it.
Keep it Fresh
We buy oils in small quantities so nothing sits on the shelf getting old.
More Isn’t Better
We'll tell you how much to use, and it's less than you think.
