荷索博士自1971年起致力于芳香植物和精油的研究，一直用植物精油来修复人体功能并追求身心灵的和谐。为了追求高品质精油，他走遍五大洲寻找植物的优质栖息地，并于1990年在德国巴登巴登创立了Oshadhi品牌。

清新的空气，明媚的光线，冷酷的外表，温暖的内心，强大的制氧机，驱走潮湿和寒冷……正如尤加利带给我们的感觉一样，它意味着自由、活力和无限的空间。尤加利的能量具有节奏感，就像“在大树顶部舞动的风”，传递着扩散、创造、滋养、汲取和享受的潜能。

尤加利是绿色、蓝绿色和白色的，是灵性层面的却也向下扎根，它高高在上，在风中摇曳在繁星下低语；但同时它也充分吸收大地的力量和水分。“尤加利”一词源自于希腊语，意思是“遮盖的”，花苞呈胶囊状，在发育过程中可以很好的保护花蕊，随后，在雄蕊的压力下开花。

当今世界上有超过700种尤加利，大多数原生于澳大利亚。它们可以生长成为低矮的灌木或是高达60米以上的大树。大多数的尤加利生长速度非常快，50%在10-15年即可长成。尤加利是几个世纪以来在全球范围内最早栽培的树种之一。

尤加利的医药价值

尤加利种类繁多，它也是世界上唯一一个在不同植物药品中可以找到的植物。尤其是蓝胶尤加利，在世界各地广泛种植，1.8桉油醇是蓝胶尤加利及澳洲尤加利最主要的成分，复杂的化学结构及和其它成分的协同作用令其在呼吸系统及心循环系统的治疗上发挥了重要的作用。呼吸自如意味着感觉、心跳和心率的正常，如果我们看下“cineol”的意思就不难理解这一点，cineol意为“移动的风”（kine aeol），难怪我们身体中与“风”有关的疾病，如肺部的问题，或者因为风引起的湿寒等，用尤加利都能得到很好的治疗。进一步解释下，肺部相关的疾病，如流感、咳嗽、黏膜炎、哮喘，风湿病、风湿性关节炎、肌肉酸痛等都可使用尤加利精油。此外，一些生殖泌尿问题，如膀胱炎、白带异常等，尤加利也是适合的。

1.8桉油醇在化学类型上属于氧化物，与空气中的氧元素有关。

“在呼吸系统方面，尤加利有天然的祛痰、化解粘液及抗菌功效，并且能够抑制某些导致气管变窄的神经递质。哮喘患者可通过使用1.8桉油醇来提升肺功能……1.8桉油醇还能改善长时间休息及早起后的呼吸困难，提高生活的质量。”

作为一个天然的氧吧，蓝胶尤加利和澳洲尤加利还能够刺激肌肤细胞再生，提升呼吸代谢频率，它们也是很好的伤口愈合剂，尤其是在水泡及烧伤问题上。同时，它们也具净化作用，处理细菌性皮炎、皮肤念珠菌及皮肤感染问题，它们的调节特质又赋予了其治疗头痛及神经痛的能力。不仅如此，尤加利还有驱虫的作用，在许多国家商业上用作驱蚊产品。

重要的植物种类

尤加利的顺畅呼吸的特性在各个年代的民间医学中都有记载。尤加利是自由和发展的象征，是人类情感的表达，也是自由奔放的创造性及思维的灵魂。尤加利渴望伸展，吸收空气中的能量，从土壤中汲取水分，并将其转化为香气。是的，尤加利是会从土壤中源源不断的吸收水分，但它们并不会降低其根系周围的水位，也不会破坏土壤环境。尤加利的生长需要从阳光中获得能量，它们叶片上的微小腺体中会产生大量的精油，一些肉眼可以看到。与桃金娘科其它物种一样，尤加利的萃油率很高，这是这个植物科属的共性。

Eucalyptus Globulus and Radiata – Giving New Breath for Life

Posted by Dr. Malte Hozzel

Airy and light refreshing outside warming inside a mighty oxygenizer drying out dampness and cold Eucalyptus means freedom vitality and space beyond boundaries. Its energy is rhythmic like “moving winds on the top of mighty trees” and conveys a potential to spread to create to nourish to absorb to enjoy.

Eucalyptus’ colour is green bluish green and white etheric and yet rooted rising high and whispering to the vibratory breeze of the stars yet simultaneously drinking in full draughts the waters of creation. The word “eucalyptus” stems from Greek language ευκάλυπτος and means “well covered”. The flower bud has a special capsule-like shape and protects the reproductive organs during their development opening itself up later under the pressure of the emerging stamens.

More than seven hundred species of Eucalyptus exist today in the world most of them native to Australia. They can grow as a low shrub or as a huge tree up to over 60 m in height. Most of them are growing quite fast with more than 50 % of even the tall trees established in the first 10-15 years of their growth. Eucalyptus is one of the first botanical groups which was globally cultivated since several centuries.

Medicine per se

With its numerous species and sub-species (and chemotypes of essential oils) Eucalyptus is also the sole genus which one can find in so many different varieties in form of plant medicine throughout the world. The “globulus” specy has particularly found its habitat on all continents. Eucalyptol or 1 8 -cineole as the scientists call it is one of the major bio-chemical compounds of the globulus and radiata specy. In natural synergy with its many other compounds it has remarkable therapeutic effects specifically on the respiratory tract and with this on the cardiac system as well – since free breathing means free feeling free heart-beat good heart rythm. If we look at the translation of cineol it means nothing else than “moving the wind” (kine aeol). No wonder that ailments of our “wind” organs the lungs and their connection with the elements of “cold and damp” respond all well to treatments with Eucalyptus oils. This means: pulmonary problems flu bronchitis coughs catarrh asthma but also rheumatism rheumatoid arthritis and muscular pains etc. react well to treatments with Eucalpytus oils. And not to forget derangements of the uro-genital tract like cystitis and leucorrhea which are treated with this easily affordable powerful oil.

1 8-cineol is bio-chemically spoken an oxide which again has its link with the air element (oxygene).

“It has natural expectorant mucolytic and bactericidal effects in the respiratory organs (lungs and sinuses) and also inhibits certain neuro-transmitters that are responsible for narrowing the bronchi. In asthmatics lung function can be improved under medical supervision by administering pure 1 8 cineol……. Cineol also improves breathlessness at rest and in the morning as well as indicators of quality of life.”

As a natural oxygene supplier to the system Eucalyptus globulus and radiata oils are also regenerative to the skin cells and enhance their respiratory metabolism making them good wound healers especially in case of blisters and burns; but they are also reliable allies against impurities like bacterial dermatitis skin candida and skin infections. Their toning energizing nature can be of excellent help to treat headaches and neuralgic pains. Good to note also: Eucalyptus oil has insect repellent properties and is used commercially in mosquito repellent products in many countries.

A vital plant genus

The free breath which Eucalyptus inspires is well documented through ages of folk medicine. Eucalyptus trees are the symbol of freedom and expansion also of human emotions of the soul’s unrestricted energies liberating them in the flow of ceaseless intentions and creations. And the heart rejoices in this dynamics of the Eucalyptus stimulated by their desire to stretch out to absorb the surrounding space transforming it into beautiful aromas and drink the water from the soil. Yes thirsty they are these trees. But it is not true that Eucalyptus dries out the water table under their roots. It is clearly a myth that Eucalyptus species damages the sub-soil moisture of the land where they grow. But they all love and need the sun for their well-being – and for the high amounts of essential oils they produce in the tiny little glands on the leaves some of them one can see with naked eyes. As in other species of the family of the Myrtaceae Eucalyptus produces copious amounts of essential oils – a special character of this genus.
