Interventions

  • Natural Compound A (Hinoki essential oil) — OTHER
    Participants will use "Natural Compound A" in a diffuser every night for 4 weeks. Diffuser will be placed near participant's bed and will be used during the entire time they are asleep (about 8 hours, every night).
  • Natural Compound B (Lemon essential oil) — OTHER
    Participants will use "Natural Compound B" in a diffuser every night for 4 weeks. Diffuser will be placed near participant's bed and will be used during the entire time they are asleep (about 8 hours, every night).
  • Natural Compound C (Control/Water) — OTHER
    Participants will use "Natural Compound C" in a diffuser every night for 4 weeks. Diffuser will be placed near participant's bed and will be used during the entire time they are asleep (about 8 hours, every night).

Study Details

The purpose of this study is to explore the positive, holistic health outcomes resulting from regular exposure to naturally occurring compounds predicted to have health benefits. The researchers hope to learn how the human body is influenced by regular exposure to these compounds.

Arms

  • Experimental: Group A- Natural Compound A to Natural Compound B to Natural Compound C
    * Cycle 1 (4 weeks): use diffused "Natural Compound A" (essential oil) in a diffuser every night when sleeping * Cycle 2 (4 weeks): will not use compounds/diffuser (wash-out period) * Cycle 3 (4 weeks): use diffused "Natural Compound B" (essential oil) in a diffuser every night when sleeping * Cycle 4 (4 weeks): will not use compounds/diffuser (post-intervention observation period) * Cycle 3 (4 weeks): use diffused "Natural Compound C" (control) in a diffuser every night when sleeping * Cycle 4 (4 weeks): will not use compounds/diffuser (post-intervention observation period) There will be 3 natural compounds; the intervention compounds essential oils and are commercially available and there is a control compound (water). They will be used as intended with diffusers.
  • Experimental: Group B- Natural Compound B to Natural Compound C to Natural Compound A
    * Cycle 1 (4 weeks): use diffused "Natural Compound B" (essential oil) in a diffuser every night when sleeping * Cycle 2 (4 weeks): will not use compounds/diffuser (wash-out period) * Cycle 3 (4 weeks): use diffused "Natural Compound C" (control) in a diffuser every night when sleeping * Cycle 4 (4 weeks): will not use compounds/diffuser (post-intervention observation period) * Cycle 3 (4 weeks): use diffused "Natural Compound A" (essential oil) in a diffuser every night when sleeping * Cycle 4 (4 weeks): will not use compounds/diffuser (post-intervention observation period) There will be 3 natural compounds; the intervention compounds essential oils and are commercially available and there is a control compound (water). They will be used as intended with diffusers.
  • Experimental: Group C- Natural Compound C to Natural Compound A to Natural Compound B
    * Cycle 1 (4 weeks): use diffused "Natural Compound C" (control) in a diffuser every night when sleeping * Cycle 2 (4 weeks): will not use compounds/diffuser (wash-out period) * Cycle 3 (4 weeks): use diffused "Natural Compound A" (essential oil) in a diffuser every night when sleeping * Cycle 4 (4 weeks): will not use compounds/diffuser (post-intervention observation period) * Cycle 3 (4 weeks): use diffused "Natural Compound B" (essential oil) in a diffuser every night when sleeping * Cycle 4 (4 weeks): will not use compounds/diffuser (post-intervention observation period) There will be 3 natural compounds; the intervention compounds essential oils and are commercially available and there is a control compound (water). They will be used as intended with diffusers.
