steaming fresh Eucalyptus?

yankeebabeme · October 2015

I've been super congested and not feeling well all week. We do a monthly market box and in todays box was a lot of fresh Eucalyptus. so I decided to boil water and Eucalyptus leaes and breathe in the steam. Now hubby is upset and says that it's not safe. thoughts? opinions? any other remedies?

I didn't do much searching, but the essential oil derived from it seems safe? (https://www.babycentre.co.uk/x536449/is-it-safe-to-use-essential-oils-while-im-pregnant) I know it's not a reputable source, but I don't know much about essential oils to begin with.

Common sense says that as long as you aren't huffing it for long periods of time it should be fine.
