Bergamot (Citrus bergamia) is a fruit best known for its Bergamot essential oil (BEO) which is used in aromatherapy to minimize symptoms of stress-induced anxiety and mild mood disorders and cancer pain. Bergamot essential oil (BEO) can interfere with synaptic plasticity providing neuroprotection observed in the course of cerebral ischemia. Bergamot essential oil is also effective in cases of fatigue, Alzheimer's, depression, insomnia and irritability [1].

Bergamot essential oil is appreciated for its soft and relaxing fragrance. In vitro studies suggest that due to its linalool content, it inhibits the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Inhibition of AChE activity enhances memory and thinking . Selective inhibition of Bche is indicated to treat neurodegenerative diseases , since this enzyme interferes with the function of Acetylcholine. Additionally, BChE is frequently present in brain scan results from Alzheimer 's patients. Interestingly, BChE regularly shows up in the results of brain scans in Alzheimer's patients. Linalool stands out for its antispasmodic and anxiolytic properties. By entering into competition with certain neurotransmitters in the hippocampus, it regulates mood, lowers blood pressure and dissipates tension . Various investigations conclude that inhaled Bergamot essential oil has the ability to deeply influence the nervous system to reduce anxiety, stress, depression, negative emotions and fatigue , as well as correct mild mood disorders. Animal studies suggest that Bergamot essence reduces the response of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis to stress by reducing corticosterone secretion, making it a valuable remedy for anxiety and stress management .

Linalool and limonene are antiseptic and antibacterial . Linalool has manifest action against: Campylobacter jejuni, Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis. Limonene is active against Aspergillus niger and Penicillium digitatum. The presence of both molecules justifies their use for environmental asepsis.

Finally, limonene, the main molecule of bergamot essential oil, acts positively on digestion as a carminative, digestive (stimulates gastric motility and reduces nausea) and laxative (when there is constipation).

Additionally, limonene is recognized for being choleretic and cholagogue , stimulating the generation of bile and its secretion at the intestinal level, favoring the digestion of fats and favoring the functions of the liver, on which it has a hepatoprotective effect. In this sense, it is recommended to add either Hepedib or Hepa Complex .
