Pure Peppermint oil

Good therapeutic grade essential oils can do wonderful things for the body. Pure peppermint oil is no exception. I need specify that the following benefits apply only to therapeutic grade oil as the quality of your essential oils is very important.

Peppermint is considered a "universal" oil. This means that it supports every system in the body.Most know it for helping to alleviate stomach aches. Drinking a few drops 1-2) diluted into 8 ounces of water can help quell a sour stomach.

Peppermint oil is very anti-inflammatory when applied to skin over inflamed muscle tissue. You will only need one or two drops for a full application. Do not get the oil into open cuts, sores, or burns as peppermint is known as a "hot" oil meaning it's very strong.
