Australian Blue Gum Eucalyptus Essential oil
Blue Gum Eucalyptus is the most well-known of all the many species of Eucalyptus essential oils available. The oil of this tree is thought to have antibacterial and wound healing properties. For hundreds of years, the Aborigines of Australia have used Eucalyptus leaves for their disinfectant value. Groves of these trees were planted in swampy areas of North Africa to halt the spread of malaria. Jean Valnet, MD, reported that 70% of airborne staph bacteria were killed when a 2% emulsion of Eucalyptus oil was used as a spray.
Blue Gum Eucalyptus has a fresh, camphorous aroma and is useful for a wide range of respiratory, muscular, and skin ailments. This particular Eucalyptus oil should not be used for treating the elderly and young children - Eucalyptus radiata is recommended instead.
Customer Reviews
- High Quality Review by Debi
- This product, like all the oils I have purchased from Eden Botanicals is so pure and high quality you can smell the difference with one sniff. I have a blend I use for colds and chest congestion, that this is miraculous in. There is not another equivalent to this oil on the market that I have found. (Posted on 3/14/13)
