Eucalyptus Extract Oil

Native to Australia, particularly the province of Tasmania, eucalyptus was quickly planted in the subtropical regions of Asia and the Mediterranean basin. Many countries quickly incorporated the medicinal uses of eucalyptus leaves into their pharmacopoeia: China, India, Sri Lanka, South Africa, Reunion Island, Europe, etc. Possessing an exceptional capacity to absorb water from the soil in which it grows, eucalyptus quickly dries out the marshes it colonizes. It thus eliminates the breeding grounds of insects that transmit malaria, hence the name "fever tree" or Australian fever tree. The Aborigines placed one end of a eucalyptus root in a pool of water and the other in a container in order to fill it thanks to the pumping action it exerts.

Some of the benefits of eucalyptus extract are:

• Protects skin from oxidative stress and premature aging
