Use Tea Tree Oil for Success with These!
Tea Tree is one of my favourite essential oils – and it’s incredibly useful for a wide variety of natural remedies.
It is made from the twigs and leaves of the Australian Tea Tree or Melaleuca Tree, and is also known as Malaleuca Oil.
Use Tea Tree Oil to solve these common issues:
Cough, cold, congestion? Rub Tea Tree Oil on your chest. Drop a small amount of the oil on your pillow so that you’ll inhale it while you sleep.
Cold sores? Apply Tea Tree Oil directly onto the sore, 3 – 4 times a day. (Just make sure not to get any inside your mouth).
Cuts, sores, bites, stings? Rub Tea Tree Oil directly onto the wound; it’s Nature’s antiseptic.
Athlete’s Foot, fungus? Tea Tree Oil is a great fungicide. Soak feet in warm water with a few drops of the oil .
Bugs? Apply Tea Tree Oil to your skin to ward off fleas, mosquitoes and lice.
Dandruff? Add about 4 drops of Tea Tree Essential Oil to a full bottle of very gentle, mild shampoo (preferably one with little fragrance), and use as normal. (Don’t put the oil directly on your scalp, it’s too strong.
Bad breath? Soak your dental floss in Tea Tree Oil , or mix a drop in with your toothpaste. Be sure not to swallow it.
Always store essential oil in glass, not plastic containers, and keep out of bright light. Keep the oil cool, perhaps in the refrigerator. Keep the lid tightly closed as air reduces Tea Tree’s healing properties.

Tea tree oil should be used sparingly it may be the only future cure for MRSA
Perhaps it will be the only future cure for MRSA, I don’t know. But I don’t think some of us using it for remedies is going to cause problems. If large corporations decided they liked it, that would be different. But it’s probably not cheap enough as an ingredient for them to use in quantity. Thanks for your comment!
How would you use it for MRSA?
I don’t know a lot about MRSA but my guess would be tea tree oil’s anti-bacterial qualities would be useful, as MRSA does not react to anti-biotics. Perhaps our original comm enter could elaborate?
Wow! I did not know this. I’ll get some to keep on hand. Thank you so much for all the information.
My pleasure, glad you found it helpful!
