What is Pranarôm Organic Eucalyptus globulus essential oil 10ml used for?
Pranarôm Organic Eucalyptus globulus essential oil is renowned for its powerful anti-catarrhal and expectorant properties. Active compounds such as 1,8-cineole andalpha-pinene play a key role in acting on the bronchopulmonary zone. They help fluidify and eliminate excess mucus secreted by the bronchi during respiratory infections. By stimulating the movement of bronchial cilia, this essential oil helps expel mucus, facilitating breathing and providing rapid relief.
Eucalyptus globulus essential oil also has respiratory antiseptic and antibacterial properties. Thanks to the presence of 1,8-cineole andalpha-pinene, it has excellent activity against Gram-negative (E. coli, P. aeruginosa) and Gram-positive (S. aureus) bacteria. When diffused, this essential oil purifies ambient air, reducing the risk of respiratory infections and creating a healthier environment.
Several studies conducted by the Pranarôm laboratory have highlighted the effectiveness of Eucalyptus globulus essential oil against certain viruses. It is active against HSV-1 and HSV-2 at concentrations of 0.009% and 0.008% respectively. In aerosol form, it is effective against influenza A viruses and E. coli phage M13, inactivating over 95% of viruses in 5 to 15 minutes of exposure. Its major compounds inhibit virus replication, slowing their progress through the body.
Eucalyptus globulus essential oil has notable antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties. It has demonstrated fungicidal activity against strains such asAspergillus fumigatus and Candida, inhibiting their growth. In addition, 1,8-cineole modulates the body's inflammatory response, reducing the production of cytokines responsible for inflammation and thus helping to soothe respiratory tract ailments.
This essential oil is also known for its immunomodulating properties. It stimulates the production of gamma-globulins and beta-globulins, strengthening the immune system. What's more, it has proven insecticidal activity against houseflies, making this oil an eco-friendly choice for pest control. Finally, its analgesic properties offer effective pain relief thanks to eucalyptol's action on TRPM8 and TRPA1 receptors.
