Peppermint essential oil is a pungent, fresh, and minty oil extracted from the leaves and flowering tops of the Mentha x piperita plant. It is a hybrid of watermint and spearmint and is known for its characteristic cooling sensation, primarily due to its high concentration of menthol. Its uses span cosmetic, culinary, and medicinal fields, with benefits including easing headaches and nausea, supporting digestive health, and acting as a natural insect repellent.
