NIAOULI (SPAIN) (MELALEUCA VIRIDIFLORA-MYRTACEAE)
Distilled form the leaf, this oil appears very pale yellow to dark yellow and is very liquid. Niaouli is similar to Cajeput and Eucalyptus according to the aroma and therapeutic properties.
PRINCIPAL CONSTITUENTS: Cineol 35-60%, eucalyptol, esters (butyric and isovaleerianic) limonene, pinene, and terpineol.
PERFUME NOTE: Top
CONTRAINDICATIONS: Synergies or blends should not be used in the facial area, particularly the nose of infants and toddlers.
SIDE EFFECTS: In rare cases, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea can occur with internal use and balneotherapy.
INTERACTIONS WITH OTHER DRUGS: Niaouli oil contains 35-60 percent cineol. Cineol causes the induction of the enzymes involved in the detoxification of the liver. The effects of other drugs can therefore be reduced and/or shortened.
CAUTION: Do not use in balneotherapy for anyone needing to maintain a certain blood level of medication.
ANECDOTAL INFORMATION: Effective for catarrhs, this oil can be used in place of Eucalyptus because it has the same qualities and a milder aroma. Use for urinary tract infections, sore throats, sinusitis, runny nose, bronchitis, insect bites, ulcers and wounds.
