Peppermint's Backstory

The peppermint plant is a cross between water mint and spearmint. Because of its many uses, peppermint has earned a reputation for being one of the most versatile oils in the world! Extracted from the peppermint herb native to the Mediterranean, this cherished plant has been used since 1500 BC.

The benefits have been traced back to Chinese and Japanese folk practices. Dried peppermint leaves were also found in tombs inside the pyramids!

Today, Peppermint is frequently used in toothpaste, mouth rinses, and for oral hygiene.
