Tea Tree Oil

Tea tree oil is a popular ingredient in nail fungus treatments – and for good reason. It is a potent antiseptic and well known for promoting skin health. Tea tree oil contains a powerful chemical called terpenoids that also help penetrate the nail and cure the nail bed of any fungal contaminants. Australian aborigines have used it for thousands of years for just this reason. Recent scientific studies have supported this ancient use of tea tree oil and shown that it is effective against skin infections. The oil is drawn out of the tea tree constituents by steam distillation of the leaves. This ingredient is generally considered safe, but it can occasionally cause skin irritation on contact. Zetaclear dilutes the tea tree oil with other oils to prevent this side effect. (more…)
