It is considered as a medicinal plant because it has properties such as cineol, fravonoids, tannins and acids that favor its different uses as antiseptic, expectorant, balsamic, antibacterial, among others of great importance.

This, as long as its use is the same, the desired effects can be obtained.

Is it important to know the ways of using eucalyptus?

Of course, since it has multiple uses and ways that the desired effect is achieved, infusions would improve cough and congestion, perhaps if the problem is the skin directly or by dermatitis would apply splices of previously boiled leaves and its uses can be extended to stomatitis and vaginitis where the infusion can be used orally as swishes and genital showers in the cystitis and vaginitis, and you can even get to make mixer preparations for ointments.

The eucalyptus is a tree that can measure up to 60 meters tall but its adult leaves are the ones that serve as proof that this incredible plant has medicinal effects and that we can easily take care of the world around us since in it are the answers of many evils that afflict us.

More than benefits may have contraindications?

Explicitly the infusions and the use of the leaves do not have any type of contraindication, but nevertheless the oil of the eucalyptus to be essential the same can have toxic effects all the essential oils must be diluted before its use. The most obvious signs of intoxication can be stomach pain, nausea, dizziness, vomiting, muscle weakness. The recommended thing is to go immediately to the doctor for the pertinent attentions.

Nature always gives us its health benefits.
