I have to say that my kids do not like the smell but I still boil

water and drop a few drops of the oil and let the kids smell it. The

whole house smells like it, I love it, but is for their own good.

We have had very good results with sinuses.

So does it smell like tea tree? Because if it does I won't even bother

getting it if it isn't any better. Deb A

--Tea tree oil (Melaleuka alternafolia) has greater killing power than manuka

oil (Leptospermum scoparium).

Though, a special concentrate version of manuka called Fraction 1 manuka oil has

better than or equal to power or tea tree oil.

--Another oil is LeMa oil, which is simply a combination of manuka and tea tree

oils, and is only available through Coast Bio in New

Zealand http://www.coastbio.co.nz/ It has greater killing power than tea tree

oil alone.

--Lemon Scented Tea Tree oil (Leptospermum petersonii) is actually from the

manuka family, not tea tree family as the name implies.

It has a greater killing power than all the others. However, it has a strong

lemon scent -- like inhaling lemon Pledge furniture polish.

Lemon Scented Tree tea oil shouldn't be confused with just lemon essenstial oil.

It is very difficult to find this type of oil in stores. You

can order it from http://www.smallflower.com, a Chicago based apothecary. The

brand is Auroma, an excellent company. (, I did

see your email requesting I pick up some for you, and I promise I will try when

things calm on this end.)

--Eucalyptus oil (Eucalyptus globulus or another type, Eucalyptus radiata) has

lesser killing power than the above but is still very

effective. It's aromatic scent clears stuffy noses and chests. However,

according to one Chinese doctor, it should not be used in

people with CF for longer than three days at a time because it can cause " heat, "

a Chinese term for inflammation. When my nose is

stuffy, often I just open the bottle and inhale deeply instead of taking the

time to put the oil in a steamy bowl of water. Sometimes I

add the oil to the bath water to help open stuffy sinuses.

The oils you buy should say 100% pure essential oil, and it is always best to

buy oils that list the Latin name (as stated above). It is

helpful if they list the country of origin too. Your manuka, tea tree, and lemon

scented tea tree oils should be from Australian or New

Zealand plants. They should be in dark brown or blue glass (NEVER plastic)

bottles.

--Lavender (Lavendula officialnalis) is another nice oil for inflammation, and

it has a pleasant scent, calming, relaxing effect. It's gentle

enough for babies, but if you put in bath water, as with all oils avoid getting

bath water in the eyes.

I have a combination bottle of tea tree/lavender oil that contains organically

grown oils. It's made by Desert Essence and was

reasonably priced. I like the scent and it's very effective (especially clears

up a zit fast!). This combo bottle is in a dark brown glass

bottle, however, Desert Essence's " plain " tea tree oils are generally found in

clear glass bottles, so I avoid buying it (the dark glass

helps protect the oil).

Our eucalyptus oil, and 's tea tree oil, is made by Aura Cacia, which is a

brand I like and is generally found in most healthfood

stores, Whole Foods stores. You can also find this brand very cheaply at

http:www.houseofnutrition.com (type essential oil into the

search box).

(P.s. cajuput oil is also tea tree oil)

It's scent is not as medicinally strong as plain tea tree, and I've acquired

a fondess for it because it works very well for me. I use it

because I know it works. When I'm short on time, this is one that I wave

under my nose throughout the day, just like eucalyptus.

Ok thanks Kim I will order some. We were just at the ENT last week and

has 2 polyps growing on her right side. It has been a year since her

last

polyp surgery. I want to do everything I can to help slow this down and get rid

of the pseudomonas in her nose. She is still culturing pseudomonas in her

sinuses and I thought that maybe this might be what is causing the polyps to

grow. The doctors never told me this but I just wonder if it might have

something

to do with it. I also think I might try using the glutathione in her nose to

see if it will help her with the polyps growing. Nothing else has worked so I

figure it can't hurt to try other things. Deb A
