The peppermint plant is a hybrid of watermint and spearmint and was first described by Carl Linneaus in 1753. A high menthol content—like that found in the doTERRA Peppermint essential oil—distinguishes the best quality Peppermint from other products. Peppermint is frequently used in toothpaste and chewing gum for oral hygiene. Peppermint continues to be one of the best-selling favourites among doTERRA essential oils.

Usage & Safety

ESSENTIAL OIL USAGE

Essential oils can be enjoyed in many ways. Each oil has different properties and it is important to check the recommended application (aromatic, topical, food flavouring) for each oil.

Aromatic – 1-2 drops can be added to a diffuser. Diffusion is one of the simplest methods for enjoying essential oils. Diffusers that use cold air or water are ideal.

Topically – Check that the oil is suitable for topical use. Start with the lowest possible dose (1–2 drops. Because every person is unique, the dose will vary for each individual based on size, age and individual characteristics). Some oils are recommended to be diluted to reduce the likelihood of developing skin sensitivity, especially on sensitive skin. It is advisable to use a carrier oil (such as Fractionated Coconut Oil) to dilute more potent oils and when trying an oil for the first time. The recommended dilution ratio is typically one drop of essential oil to three drops of carrier oil.

Food Flavouring – a few oils are suitable to be added to food and drinks in small amounts (1-2 drops) depending on taste preferences. Remember oils are highly concentrated and a small amount goes a long way. Oils suitable for flavouring include Lemon, Peppermint, Basil, Oregano, Frankincense, Lavender, Coriander.
