The first records of the benefits of mint come from Egypt, when around 1550 I.H. in the Ebers Papyrus mint is described as an excellent digestive, but also a safe treatment for reducing flatulence.
The aromatic qualities of mint date back to the 1st century BC, when the Roman poet OVIDIUS paid tribute to mint in his work Metamorphoses for its incredible scent, which was offered to the gods along with the gifts of the earthlings. In China, this plant was used during the Ming Dynasty to treat digestive disorders, headaches, migraines, to alleviate muscle pain, but also to perfume clothes or rooms.
Mint quickly spread throughout Europe, but also to other continents. Currently, spearmint is cultivated all over the world, but the most important crops are in the USA, China, India and Brazil.
Spearmint essential oil has numerous uses. In addition to its pleasant smell, spearmint has a beneficial effect on digestive disorders. MENTHA VIRIDIS/ SPERAMINT essential oil contains antimicrobial and antioxidant properties.
Following numerous studies conducted over time, it has been found that menthol (the main ingredient extracted from mint) blocks calcium channels, which leads to the relaxation of smooth muscles in the intestines, for this reason peppermint oil is recommended for irritable bowel syndrome.
Diluted, peppermint essential oil can be used as a mouthwash to combat canker sores.
Spearmint essential oil relieves migraines due to its vasodilator properties, so 4 drops of this essential oil diluted in olive oil can considerably reduce the discomfort caused by them.
Spearmint essential oil can be diffused into the air or inhaled to relieve stress. Applied diluted locally on the skin, it will repel mosquitoes, fleas, moths and ticks.
