    Methyl cinnamate is the methyl ester of cinnamic acid. Research shows it has high antioxidant activity. This essential oil, derived from the leaf of Eucalyptus olida is used in flavoring and perfumery. The whole leaf is used as a dried spice product in bush food cooking, especially with fruit and in herbal teas. In the Australian native foods industry several trade names are used, including ‘olida’ and ‘forestberry herb’. It may be employed as a digestive aid with therapeutic properties offering a balancing, anti-spasmodic, sedative activity for the nervous system, and for conditions of anxiety and depression.
