We often see companies or individuals use the phrase or statement that “this essential oil is FDA approved for ingestion”. However, GRAS is not a list of ‘safe to ingest’ essential oils or anything else. GRAS is a list of items that companies and experts in their fields have petitioned the FDA to allow or say that they are “Generally Safe Within Certain Conditions” and to be used as food additives. (1) Because of the strict conditions and testing one must pass to get an item approved, it is extremely difficult to get on the list and although “essential oils” are on the list, there are no essential oils on the list that are approved for ingesting. The GRAS list can be found on the FDA webs
