Eucalyptus Oil  Eucalyptus spp.

Australia is home to more than 700 types of fast-growing, flowering evergreens known as eucalyptus. Part of the myrtle family (Myrtaceae), these plants can grow to 60 feet tall and 15 feet wide. doTERRA has selected five species to create its proprietary CPTG^® Eucalyptus essential oil blend: Eucalyptus radiata, E. polybractea, E. kochii, E. loxophleba, and E. globulus. The primary chemical component of these species is eucalyptol (1,8-Cineole), which is where this essential oil blend gets many of its benefits. Use in a diffuser or apply topically to promote feelings of clear breathing and open airways. The camphoraceous, herbaceous aroma is revitalizing. Use Eucalyptus in the shower or add a few drops in a carrier oil or lotion for a soothing massage. In addition,preclinical research suggests that the 1,8 cineole in Eucalyptus may have cleansing properties.

Aromatic use: Add 3-4 drops to the diffuser of your choice. 

Topical use: Dilute 1 drop essential oil to 10 drops carrier oil.
