Peppermint (Mentha arvensis) - is a hybrid species of spearmint and water mint is found in a wide range of products being frequently used in the food, flavour and cosmetic industries as well as in aromatherapy.
The oil is created by steam distilling the leaves, stems and flower buds of the plant. Clinically speaking, peppermint oil is recommended for its anti-nausea benefits and soothing effects on the gastric lining and colon because of its ability to reduce muscle spasms. It also has antimicrobial properties so it can help freshen bad breath and soothe digestive issues.
Health Benefits:
Alertness
Use oil of peppermint to wake up your senses first thing in the morning, or during the mid-day slump by using it aromatically or topically.
Antioxidant
Great for immunity, you can use it aromatically, topically or probably best yet, find empty capsules, add one drop of peppermint and create your own peppermint oil capsules. Or add a drop to a large glass of water.
Asthma
May help open the airways when used aromatically or by rubbing a single drop onto the chest.
Cold Sores
Because of the antiviral properties (described above), oil of peppermint can be dabbed directly onto a cold sore. Only a small amount is needed!
Constipation
Dilute 1 drop of peppermint in a small dollop of carrier oil and massage the abdomen in a slow, clockwise motion.
Cooling to the body
Rub a small drop or dilute it in oil, or even a small spritz bottle to cool the body down during hot weather. Avoid close proximity with the eyes though!
Diarrhoea
More peppermint oil uses for the digestive system include taking it internally or applying it topically to the abdomen in a counter clockwise direction to soothe the digestive system and help fight any infection with its anti-everything properties.
Fever
Because of its antiviral, antibacterial and more properties, using this oil aromatically and internally is beneficial. The cooling affects it has may also help keep the fever from climbing too high.
Flu
Antiviral and antibacterial, it’s good for the immune system and can be used any way you'd like.
Hot Flashes
Peppermint oil uses include a wonderful cooling affect. Use topically or adding to a spritz bottle, avoiding contact with eyes.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
It's suggested to add 1 drop of oil to each glass of water you drink throughout the day. You may also massage it into reflex points or over the stomach.
Swollen Eyes
Dilute and apply very carefully to the tissues around the eye, but avoid direct contact within the eye.
Tennis Elbow
Massage oil of peppermint into the tendons around the elbow to decrease inflammation and relieve pain.
