About peppermint (Mentha piperita):

Peppermint is a perennial plant from the mint family (Lamiaceae), a natural hybrid of watermint and spearmint. The essential oil is extracted from the leaves by steam distillation and contains valuable constituents such as menthol (30-50%), menthone, and menthyl acetate. Peppermint has been used traditionally for millennia – the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans all appreciated its healing properties. The characteristic cooling effect of peppermint is caused by menthol, which activates cold receptors in the skin. Peppermint is one of the most versatile and popular essential oils worldwide.

Perfect for:

• Relief from tension headaches and migraines
• Promoting concentration and mental clarity
• Energy boost in cases of fatigue and exhaustion
• Supports digestion and relieves bloating
• Relief from nausea and travel sickness
