Health Benefits of Tea Tree

The strong antiseptic, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties of tea tree oil have found medicinal uses, such as:

• Treating fungal infections: The antifungal properties of tea trees have been used traditionally as a natural cure for athlete's foot and nail infections.
• Clearing acne: Due to its antiseptic properties, tea tree oil can be effective in eliminating acne rash, and other skin problems.
• Infusion: An infusion of tea tree leaves can help keep the scalp free of dandruff and can be used as a skin toner.
• Mouthwash: A few drops of tea tree oil can also be diluted in water and used as an herbal mouthwash in order to fight bad breath and dental plaque. This preparation can also be gargled for gingivitis relief.
• Inhalation: The crushed tea tree leaves can be stepped in hot water, and the vapor can be inhaled in order to relieve sinus problems due to bacteria and viruses.
• Essential oil: In order to reap tea tree benefits, its oil should never be applied directly on the skin. It's important to dilute it with a carrier oil, like the one obtained from olive seeds, coconut, or almonds.
• Ointment: Combined with glycerin, mineral oil, bee wax, and other mediums, tea tree oil ointments can be useful for relieving acne, dried skin, itchiness, eczema, psoriasis, rashes, and other dermatological issues.

Other uses

• Antiseptic products: Tea tree extract can also be found in mouthwashes and gargles.
• Personal care products: Tea tree is an ingredient in many body care products, such as soap, shampoo, lip balm, and topical creams.
• Crafts: Due to the elasticity and softness of its bark, the tea tree was used by native Australian inhabitants to create sleeping mats and cradles.

Ingredient:

• Tea Tree Essential Oil.
• Australian Tea tree (Melaleuca Alternifolia)

How It Works

Tea tree oil is made potent by its high quantity of essential oil, in which terpinen-4-ol, a major active ingredient, is found in quantities of up to 40%. Tea tree oil also contains gamma-terpinene (24%), alpha-terpinene (10%), and cineol (5%). These percentages vary depending on the quality of the oil.

Terpinen-4-ol is responsible for the antiseptic properties of tea tree oil, with the added benefit of being gentle on the skin.2,3 On the other hand, cineole, another tea tree compound, has been known to irritate the skin, especially in oils of poorer quality that may contain higher amounts of it. However, cineole is also responsible for the tea tree's aroma and other antimicrobial properties. In bacteria and fungi, it acts by disrupting cell membranes and metabolism.4 Additionally, it inhibits cellular respiration in fungi.

Avoided Notes:

• Since tea tree oil reportedly decreases contraction strength, its use is not recommended in pregnant and breastfeeding women, or those undergoing childbirth.
• It should be avoided by people with an allergy or sensitivity to plants from the Myrtaceae family.
