Eucalyptus — The Respiratory Medicine
1,8-cineole from eucalyptus is so well established pharmaceutically that it is the active ingredient in Soledum — a licensed European herbal medicine for bronchitis and sinusitis. It is also the active compound behind the mechanism of Vicks VapoRub, one of the world's most recognised cold and respiratory remedies. Pharmaceutical researchers have synthesised cineole derivatives for bronchodilator medications. The eucalyptus tree has been providing this chemistry for millions of years.
