I'm curious if anyone knows pros and cons of essential oil distillers or herbal simmer pots?

Do you mean oil and oil blends for diffusing?

If so, a link to this paper was posted on Lung Matters Facebook group. The bottom line is that diffusing some essential oils might emit VOCs (volatile organic compounds), which is not good for breathing. When I diffused essential oils I loved it and was particular about the oils I purchased. I decided to stop because of the potential VOCs. Sad face.
