Peppermint Essential Oil
Therapeutic peppermint essential oil must contain at least 40% menthol & 25% menthole (Ketone). The essential oil are gathered by steam distillation of the fresh aerial parts of the flowering plants.
Menthol is the chief therapeutic compound in peppermint oil. Menthol is a similar to the compound capsaicin found in cayenne or hot peppers, which stimulates heat sensors without actually causing a change in temperature. Instead, menthol has a cooling effect on the body without changing the actual body temperature.
Peppermint is one of the oldest European herbs used for therapeutic purposes, and historical accounts date its use to ancient Egyptian, Chines and Japanese Folk medicine
