Alpha pinene is used as a bronchodilator for humans and also has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties and is used in the treatment of skin diseases such as eczema and other skin ailments. It is a main component of many essential oils which are used to prepare mouthwashes, cold and chest ointments.

CAUTION: As with all essential oils, dilute into carrier oils before applying them directly onto the skin. Keep oils away from eyes and mucous membranes. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry place. Stop using if there is any irritation. Research each oil well before using.
