Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus Radiata) organic essential oil is derived from the leaves & twigs of the tall evergreen tree with its large cineol content (approx. 75%), this oil is a regular gig in many formulations, most notably repellents, bites & cut healing creams.

The organic oil is extracted through a process of steam distillation, which results in a clear liquid with a strong, fresh, and camphor-like aroma.

Scientifically, eucalyptus essential oil is known for its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and decongestant properties. It contains compounds such as eucalyptol, alpha-terpineol, and limonene, which are believed to be responsible for these therapeutic effects.

Historically, eucalyptus has been used by Australian Aboriginal people for its medicinal properties, including the treatment of respiratory infections and fever. It was later introduced to Europe and the Americas, where it became popular as a natural remedy for colds, coughs, and other respiratory issues.

Today, eucalyptus essential oil is widely used in aromatherapy and natural health practices, where it is believed to have a range of benefits.

It’s important to note that while eucalyptus oil can offer potential benefits, it should always be used with caution and under the guidance of a healthcare professional. It should not be ingested and should always be diluted properly before applying topically.
