DoTERRA Peppermint 15ml

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 

 The hybrid of watermint and spearmint known as Peppermint was first described by Carl Linneaus in 1753. With its high menthol content, doTERRA® Peppermint essential oil stands out as the best quality of its kind. In aromatherapy, Peppermint is used to reduce coughing, improve mental functioning, and relieve tension headaches. In traditional Western herbal medicine, it has been ingested to soothe abdominal discomfort, relieve nausea, and treat sore throat symptoms. Applied directly to the mouth, Peppermint oil can also ease toothaches.
