Eucalyptus Oil – Respiratory System from Pure Herbs used historically for a healthy respiratory system, fights respiratory infections by killing bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
Research suggests that Eucalyptus Oil – Respiratory System fights respiratory infections by killing bacteria, viruses, and fungi. This is why you can find it in saline nasal wash. It also causes the tiny hair-like filaments in your lungs (called cilia) that sweep out mucus and debris from your airways to move faster. This can also fight infections.
Eucalyptus oil is oil distilled from the leaves of the eucalyptus tree (Eucalyptus globulus), an evergreen known for its fast growth. Although the eucalyptus tree is native to Australia, it is now grown all around the world.
According to a 2016 study Trusted Source, eucalyptus oil has antimicrobial, antifungal, and herbicidal properties.
When you’ve got a cold or the flu, you might feel like your head will explode if it cannot expel mucous. Eucalyptus works as an expectorant to ease that discomfort, and as a bonus, it can help the body to remove toxins and threats that make it all feel worse. For a powerful application, drop 2-5 drops into hot water, then lean over it with a towel “tented” around your head. Breathe deeply for five to ten minutes and enjoy the relief.
The oil that comes from the eucalyptus tree is used as an antiseptic, a perfume, as an ingredient in cosmetics, as a flavoring, in dental preparations, and in industrial solvents.
Chinese, Indian Ayurvedic, Greek, and other European styles of medicine have incorporated it into the treatment of a range of conditions for thousands of years.
There are over 400 different species of eucalyptus. Eucalyptus globulus, also known as Blue Gum, is the main source of eucalyptus oil used globally.
Leaves are steam distilled to extract the oil, which is a colorless liquid with a strong, sweet, woody scent. It contains 1,8-cineole, also known as eucalyptol.
The leaves also contain flavonoids and tannins; flavonoids are plant-based antioxidants, and tannins may help to reduce inflammation.
Directions on label: For adults, mix 2 ml of extract in 2 oz (60 ml) of water one time daily preferably with a meal.
