Eucalyptus Radiata a Mild Choice
Our Organic Eucalyptus Radiata essential oil is derived from the leaves of the Eucalyptus Radiata tree, also known as Narrow-leaved Peppermint. It is one of the many species of eucalyptus trees and is native to Australia. Eucalyptus Radiata essential oil is widely used for its therapeutic properties and pleasant aroma.
Eucalyptus Radiata species is the best choice for babies and young children. While some eucalyptus essential oils, such as Eucalyptus Smithii, contain high levels of a compound called 1,8-cineole, Eucalyptus Radiata essential oil has a lower concentration of this compound, making it milder and generally considered safer for children.
It still retains many beneficial properties, including respiratory support, immune system stimulation, and soothing effects.
When using essential oils with children, it's generally advised to dilute them properly in a diffuser and follow recommended guidelines for age-appropriate dilution ratios.
