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.
