Peppermint essential oil is extracted from the peppermint plant, which is a hybrid of watermint and spearmint.
It has a strong, refreshing, and minty aroma that is often used in aromatherapy to help improve focus and concentration, as well as to alleviate headaches and nausea. It is also commonly used to help with digestive issues, such as indigestion and bloating, and can help to freshen breath when used in mouthwash. Some people also use peppermint essential oil topically to help with muscle pain and irritation from insect bites.
