Overview

Eucalyptus oil's history of medicinal use dates back to the days of Indigenous Australians, who used both the leaves and the roots of the plant as medicines. When English colonists began to arrive in Australia in the late 1700s, they quickly adopted eucalyptus oil as a medicinal treatment themselves. In fact, when Surgeon-General John White arrived in 1788, he took an interest in eucalyptus almost immediately, according to entries in his diary.The purported health benefits of eucalyptus oil are wide-ranging (from cold sore treatment, to cough suppressant, to natural pain reliever), but more high-quality research is needed before many of these anecdotal claims can be taken as official recommendations.
