Benefits of Eucalyptus Globulus essential oil

 

Dear community,

Eucalyptus Globulus essential oil opens up the airways, clears congestion and mucous, is antimicrobial, antifungal, and antiviral.

For centuries, the indigenous Australians used the disinfecting eucalyptus leaves to cover wounds.

It is a staple oil for Autumn and Winter to prevent and treat colds and flus, sinus infections, and to clear the air of viruses and pathogens. It is also used for arthritis and rheumatism.

It smells exactly like those sugary eucalyptus lollies I used to suck on as a kid.

How to use:

  • Diffuse it 24/7

  • Apply neat on the soles of the feet

  • Rub on chest diluted with a carrier oil (healthy swap to toxic Vicks)

  • Do a steam inhalation with a bowl of boiling water and a towel over your head (and wear sunnies to avoid burning your eyes)

  • Take it into a sauna

  • Ingest via an empty capsule from the pharmacy.

Fun facts:

  • Eucalyptus trees have been planted throughout North Africa to successfully block the spread of malaria.

  • A solution of 2% eucalyptus oil sprayed on the skin will kill 70% of ambient staph bacteria.
