Eucalyptus is a type of aromatic tree famous, among other things, for its applications in medicine. From ancient China to present-day societies, different health benefits have been known, such as its antiseptic, expectorant, anti-inflammatory and soothing properties<\/strong>. In this way, it has been used to relieve colds, decongest, disinfect or combat rheumatism.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Given the eucalyptus resume, it’s no wonder some TikTok users (enough to have already generated over 141 million views) have found some logic in hang branches of this plant in your showers<\/strong>Let’s see if anything sticks to them. The trend, so typical of ‘Herbs’ of There is no one living here<\/em>like Gwyneth Paltrow, can be easily found on the social network by browsing hashtags like #eucalyptusshower or simply #eucalyptus.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In the videos that can be found there, the reason for creating such a spa <\/em>at home with a few simple branches of this medicinal plant hanging from the shower head. Of course, after having been previously pressed with a roller or heavy object so that “the essential oils tend to hold”. According to the authors of these publications, doing so has anti-inflammatory, respiratory, relaxing benefits… and even relieves headaches and muscle problems. Nevertheless, Can the steam from the shower release the necessary active ingredient?<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Not all eucalyptus trees serve<\/h2>\n

According to experts, the main active ingredient in eucalyptus not soluble in water<\/strong>. Thus, according to the same rule of three of the trend<\/em> of TikTok, it would be enough for us to put a valerian plant on the nightstand to sleep peacefully.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It is true that, who else who less, was subjected as a child to a steam bath with eucalyptus to relieve a cold. The leaves of this tree have been used since ancient times for this purpose. However, it is known that not all types that exist serve to solve medical problems<\/strong> like those mentioned above. And it is that, not all have the same concentration of essential oils or the active ingredient that is used in medicine (eucalyptol).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The eucalyptus globulus <\/em>is he <\/em>type of eucalyptus that is used for medicinal matters but this is not sold in florists but only an expert can recognize it in the forest <\/strong>(Galicia, by the way, is the region with the largest area of \u200b\u200beucalyptus in Spain). On the contrary, the eucalyptus gunni <\/em>It is the variety that is usually marketed for its decorative appearance, although it is also used in the production of cider.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In addition, plants purchased from florists and nurseries usually have received prior treatment, such as dyes or products to prevent pests. Not to mention that common sense tells us that plants and a humid place do not combine well unless we do not care that mold can be generated. Although, if you still decide to go ahead because it is decorative and smells good<\/strong>do it at least knowing that those are strictly the only properties of hanging eucalyptus in the shower.<\/p>\n
