Eucalyptus radiata (myrtaceae family) is one of the 700 species of eucalyptus found in Australia. Its leaves, much appreciated by koalas, contain a remarkably effective essential oil for better breathing.
Eucalyptus Radiata essential oil, characterized by its high eucalyptol content, has a wide range of therapeutic virtues.
Its mode of action is based on several biochemical and pharmacological mechanisms:
- Expectorant and mucolytic properties: 1,8-cineole (eucalyptol) has a stimulating effect on the exocrine glands of the respiratory mucosa, contributing to the liquefaction andevacuation of bronchial secretions. The presence of alpha-pinene reinforces this action by reducing mucus production.
- Bronchodilator action: Eucalyptol can also relax airway smooth muscle, opening bronchial tubes and facilitating breathing.
- Antiviral and antibacterial activity: constituents such as alpha-terpineol and 1,8-cineole demonstrate an ability to inhibit the multiplication of certain viruses and to manifest bactericidal activity against various microorganisms.
- Immunostimulant effect: Terpinene-4-ol, in particular, is recognized for its role inincreasing the phagocytic activity of immune cells.
- Anti-inflammatory potential: This essential oil moderates the release of pro-inflammatory substances, thus reducing inflammation.
- Analgesic properties: Eucalyptol interacts with the sensory receptors that transmit pain and cold signals.
- Parasiticide and pediculicide effect: It has a repellent action against certain parasites.
