Properties and benefits of Myrtle:

Myrtle, due to its essential oil content (myrtle, containing myrtenol, geraniol and camphene), tannins and resins, is an interesting plant with aromatic and medicinal properties.
Myrtle is attributed with balsamic, anti-inflammatory, astringent and slightly antiseptic properties, therefore it is used in the herbal and pharmaceutical fields for the treatment of conditions affecting the digestive and respiratory systems.
Myrtle is traditionally believed to have useful benefits against cystitis, poor digestion and gingivitis.
Sardinian liqueur, obtained by macerating myrtle fruit in alcohol, is also known for its digestive action.
Myrtle also has a tonic and antiseptic action, useful for the production of creams for natural cosmetics and intimate cleansers for sensitive skin.

Myrtle Habitat

Myrtle is an evergreen tree that grows spontaneously in the Mediterranean area. Sardinia and Corsica are two places where the plant grows lush and abundant.
