MEDICINAL PEPPERMINT HYDROSOL

Let's Get to Know Medicinal Peppermint

Peppermint is a perennial plant from the Lamiaceae family, widely grown in Europe and Asia, especially at low altitudes.

Medicinal mint is described as the most pleasant type of mint, possessing a distinctive, penetrating, and delightful aroma both in fresh and dried form. Its taste is aromatic, warm and pungent, bright, bitter, and gives a cooling sensation when inhaled.

Resulting from the natural hybridization of water mint (Mentha aquatic) and green mint (Mentha spicata), medicinal mint is now widely cultivated worldwide.

Peppermint is a perennial herbaceous plant traditionally valued in aromatherapy for its numerous benefits, particularly its digestive and tonic properties, energizing scent, and refreshing power.

Among the many varieties of peppermint, peppermint is the richest in volatile aromatic molecules, giving it its characteristic refreshing aroma.

Peppermint has attracted the attention of scientists throughout history due to its unique properties. The Chinese praised peppermint's calming and antispasmodic qualities. Hippocrates considered peppermint an aphrodisiac, and Pliny appreciated its analgesic effects.

The name "mint" comes from Minthe or Menthe, a nymph in Greek mythology who, according to legend, was the lover of Pluto. Pluto's wife, Persephone, in a fit of jealousy, transformed her hated rival, Minthe, into a plain-looking, ground-climbing plant that people could step on. While Pluto couldn't transform Minthe back into a nymph, he did give her the ability to sweeten the air when her leaves and stems were crushed, so that people could appreciate her sweetness.
