Peppermint Pure Essential Oil 10ml (PEO)

Historically, Peppermint Oil has been used to sooth digestive difficulties, freshen breath, relieve colic, headaches, heartburn and indigestion. The peppermint plant is a hybrid of watermint and spearmint and was first described by Carl Linneaus in 1753. A high menthol content distinguishes the best quality Peppermint from other products. The most distinguishing feature of Peppermint Oil is it’s minty cool, refreshing aroma with a hint of sweetness. Frequently used in toothpaste and chewing gum for oral hygiene, Peppermint also helps alleviate occasional stomach upset and promotes healthy respiratory function.
