It's even been reported, that said plant's honey is able do destroy MRSA which is resisrent vs. all existing antibiotics.
Divers like that stuff too, becaus it cleans sinuses completely i.e. better than antibiotics which effectively means diving w/o headaches again.

I never realised this, very interesting.
I have no idea which TTO I have, I do know that is help clearing sinuses when having a cold (a couple of drops in hot water and then inhaling the steam). It also helps great when I get a allergic reaction rash, it makes the itching stop and the rash disappears within hours.
New rant:
I was planning on sleeping late because during my house sitting I always got up around 8am to walk the dog, even on days off. But an hour ago, at 8am, I got woken up by someone drilling next door. I knew they were going to redecorate one of the restaurants next door, I just hadn't realised that they started so ****** early!
