Botanical Name: Mentha piperita
Country of Origin: India
Distillation Method: Steam
Plant Part Used: Herb
Indications: Peppermint's origin is a mystery, but it has been in existence for a long time - dried leaves were found in Egyptian pyramids dating from around 1000 BC. It was highly valued by the Greeks and Romans, but only became popular in Western Europe in the 18th Century. Peppermint tea helps maintain healthy digestion and promotes relaxation in the muscles of the digestive tract. Externally, the essential oil is used in balms and liniments to stimulate hot and cold nerve endings and promote healthy local blood flow.
