Dilution and dosage is dependent on the age, size, and the health constitution of the individual. Follow the recommended dosage on individual product labels to ensure safety or seek the advice of a health professional before administering oils internally. In addition make sure you are drinking more water because EO can accelerate the detoxification process in the body and if not enough fluids are being consumed it can cause toxins to recirculate causing nausea, headache, body aches, etc.
