The essential oil is distilled from the feathery, narrow bright green leaves. Tea tree's major contribution to the herbal pharmacy is its broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity. Often called a "first aid kit in a bottle", it is ideal to take along on camping trip or anytime you are traveling. Tea tree is also an all purpose remedy for respiratory infections, acting as an anti-infective agent and strongly stimulating the body's own immune system.
Personal Experience: Tea tree oil is a must have at my house,it gets used for something nearly every day. We use it at the first sign of a scratchy throat and sniffles a few drops in warm water as a gargle. I also add tea tree to the hand soap dispenser to kill germs, and combine tea tree with vinegar and baking soda for cleaning. A sure fire cure for any nasty skin fungus infections too. |

 The standard composition of tea tree oil is more than 30 percent terpinene and less than 15 percent cineole. This balance makes it much less irritating than oils such as eucalyptus, and small amounts can be applied neat to the skin. The aroma of the oil is warm, spicy, medicinal and volatile. It is occasionally used to scent spicy colognes and aftershaves. It blends well with lavandin, rosemary and nutmeg oils.
