Tea Tree oil is an essential oil obtained by steam distillation from young leaves and twigs of the Melaleuca alternifolia plant, a species native to Australia.
It contains more than 100 organic compounds, mainly terpenic in nature, to which numerous properties are attributed: it is considered a natural antibacterial, healing and anti-odour agent.
The compounds most commonly present are terpinene-4-ol and 1,8-cineole. These compounds, along with other monoterpenes, have been shown to be effective as broad-spectrum antibacterials, antifungals and antivirals.
