Peppermint Oil: Invigorating Body, Mind, and Spirit
Peppermint oil, extracted from the leaves of the peppermint plant (Mentha piperita), is a timeless and versatile oil that has been cherished for its numerous benefits for centuries. Native to Europe and the Middle East, peppermint oil has been used in traditional medicine, culinary practices, and spiritual rituals for its refreshing, invigorating, and medicinal properties.
Peppermint contains a compound called menthol. Menthol is responsible for many of the benefits of peppermint oils. Menthol also gives peppermint its taste, smell, and cooling sensation.
Today, peppermint is used as a dietary supplement for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), other digestive problems, the common cold, headaches, and other conditions.
Peppermint oil is also used topically (applied to the skin) for headache, muscle aches, itching, and other problems.
