Eucalyptus Gum, commonly known as Eucalyptus resin, is a natural secretion from the bark of eucalyptus trees, primarily found in Australia. This aromatic substance is often associated with the distinctive, refreshing scent of eucalyptus leaves. Eucalyptus Gum has been traditionally used by indigenous cultures for its medicinal properties, including its ability to soothe respiratory ailments and act as an antiseptic. It is also utilized in various industrial applications, such as in the production of adhesives, varnishes, and as a stabilizing agent in certain food products. The gum is typically harvested by making incisions in the tree bark, allowing the resin to ooze out and harden before being collected.
