Eucalyptus trees, which are currently cultivated all over the world and are renowned for their therapeutic qualities, are originally native to Australia. Eucalyptus oil, produced from the oval-shaped leaves of the tree, is the source of its therapeutic benefits.

To extract the essential oil, the leaves are first dried, then crushed and distilled. Before the oil can be used as medicine, it must be diluted once it has been extracted. Following are some of its benefits mentioned - 

  • Eucalyptus oil has been used to stop coughing for a long time. Eucalyptus oil is currently one of the active constituents in various over-the-counter cough medicines. Eucalyptus oil, for instance, is one of the cough suppressant chemicals in Vicks VapoRub at 1.3 percent. The well-known rub is applied to the chest and throat to alleviate coughing due to the flu or a normal cold.

  • The infections that mosquitoes and other biting insects spread might be harmful to our health. Our best line of protection is to avoid their bites. Using eucalyptus oil as a bug/insect repellant is a very effective way of naturally getting rid of them.

  • Eucalyptus leaves were utilised by the indigenous Australians to heal wounds and stop infection. Even today, diluted oil can be applied to the skin to reduce inflammation and speed up recovery. Eucalyptus oil-based lotions and ointments are available for purchase. These items can be used to treat at-home treatable injuries.

  • Due to the anti-inflammatory characteristics of eucalyptol, eucalyptus oil might also be able to reduce your discomfort. According to a recent study, persons recovering from total knee replacements felt noticeably less pain after inhaling eucalyptus oil for 30 minutes three days in a row as opposed to those who didn't.

  • Any home treatment seems worthwhile to try when a cold sore won't go away, and eucalyptus oil might truly work. According to research, certain eucalyptus oil constituents have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that make them useful in the fight against the herpes simplex virus, which is the cause of that very raw patch on your lip.

So try out Eucalyptus Essential Oil as soon as possible, and see the miraculous results yourself!

Happy Health!
