The Angelica archangelica is a member of the Apiaceae family and grows anywhere from 1 to 3 meters tall, with large hairy leaves and white to greenish-white flowers. The roots contain the active ingredients (rhizomes and furocoumarins) that Simply Earth uses to create our Angelica Root Essential Oil.

The Angelica plant has been long cultivated as ornamental and as a vegetable before the use of Angelica Root Essential Oil became popular in Scandinavia in the 12th century for its medicinal benefits and healing abilities. By then, Angelica was already growing wild in Sweden, Denmark, France, and Russia. During the 1660 plagues, the usefulness of Angelica spread to Europe and China where the aromatic stems were chewed to stop the infection and made as a health tonic. The roots and seeds were also burned to purify the air.
