Tea Tree Essential Oil is a highly concentrated oil extracted from the leaves of the Melaleuca alternifolia tree, native to Australia. Known for its potent antimicrobial and medicinal properties, tea tree oil has been widely used in traditional medicine for centuries. While commonly applied topically, food-grade tea tree oil is used in very small amounts in herbal remedies, mouthwashes, and flavoring applications due to its strong, slightly medicinal taste.

POTENTIAL HEALTH BENEFITS

• Powerful Antimicrobial Properties: Contains compounds like terpinen-4-ol that help fight bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
• Supports Oral Health: Used in mouthwashes and dental care products to combat bad breath, gum infections, and oral bacteria.
• Boosts Immunity: May help support the immune system by reducing microbial load and infections.
• Respiratory Support: Can be used in inhalation therapies to help clear congestion and support lung health.
• Digestive Aid: In extremely small amounts, it has been traditionally used to help with digestive discomfort.

HOW TO USE

• In Herbal Teas: Add a very small drop to a warm herbal tea for its antimicrobial benefits.
• As a Mouth Rinse: Dilute with water and use as a natural mouthwash (do not swallow).
• In Aromatic Blends: Mix with edible carrier oils or honey for a mild internal detoxifying effect.
• In Cooking (Highly Diluted): Occasionally used in specialty flavoring applications in extremely tiny amounts.

PRECAUTIONS

• Highly Potent: Tea tree oil is very concentrated and should never be ingested undiluted. Always use in extremely small amounts and under professional guidance.
• Potential Toxicity: Consuming large amounts can be toxic and may lead to dizziness, confusion, or nausea.
• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Avoid internal use unless approved by a healthcare provider.
• Allergic Reactions: Some individuals may be sensitive to tea tree oil and should start with very diluted amounts.
