Product Review

Tea tree oil is truly nothing short of amazing! In fact, the health benefits of tea tree essential oil are due to its multi-faceted healthy attributesóones that are recognized and appreciated worldwide.

The name ìtea tree,î however, may be misleading, though, since tea tree oil is not extracted from the plant commonly associated with the beverage known as tea. In fact, itís not even remotely related to tea oil, which is extracted from the seed of the tea plant.

More accurately, tea tree oil is extracted via steam distillation of twigs and leaves of the tea tree, which goes by the botanical name Melaleuca alternifolia. Often known simply as Melaleuca, tea tree oil is native to Australiaóin Southeast Queensland and New South Wales mostlyówhich explains why it is such a common, popular essential oil there.

And while itís a favorite in Australia, itís also become a revered and trusted essential oil worldwide.
