How to Dilute Edible Oil for Human Consumption
Diluting edible oil for human consumption is essential for anyone interested in watching their weight. Diluting cooking oil, for example, with water reduces its thickness and consistency. Tea tree oil, on the other hand, is an ideal mouthwash when diluted with water. Keep in mind that mixing oil with water is only temporary because the chemical makeup of oil and water forces the elements to separate. Remember this fact when using diluted oil for maximum effect. Does this Spark an idea?
