50g | Native Botanical | Naturally Sweet Aroma | Wild-Harvested
Strawberry Gum is one of Australia’s most aromatic native botanicals, traditionally valued by Indigenous peoples for its soothing and uplifting qualities. With a naturally sweet, berry-like flavour and a hint of cinnamon, this wild-harvested leaf brings both sensory pleasure and cultural heritage to your daily wellness ritual.
Sustainably collected in the wild and carefully air-dried, Health Heiress Strawberry Gum Leaf offers a delicious and versatile herbal infusion rich in naturally occurring antioxidants and phytonutrients.
Traditional Use
Across Bundjalung Country, Indigenous Australians would chew or brew Strawberry Gum leaves while travelling or resting. The leaves were traditionally used to freshen the breath and maintain wellbeing during periods of physical exertion.
Strawberry Gum was also burned ceremonially for its uplifting aroma, which was believed to calm the mind and support balance within the body.
Nutritional & Phytochemical Profile
Modern analysis of Eucalyptus olida has shown that it is naturally rich in a range of plant compounds known for their antioxidant activity, including:
- 
Flavonoids and Phenolic Acids – contribute to general antioxidant intake
 - 
Vitamin C and B Group Nutrients – help support normal energy metabolism and overall wellbeing
 - 
Salicylic and Protocatechuic Acids – naturally occurring plant acids present in many edible herbs
 - 
Genistein and Natural Polyphenols – commonly studied for their roles in plant-based nutrition
 
These naturally occurring compounds help protect the leaf’s freshness and aromatic complexity while contributing to its vibrant flavour and nutritional character.
