Description: You may know Spearmint best by having it in gum or toothpaste. It is quite popular in food and dental products. Spearmint essential oil smells just like the Spearmint you may have used to trying in food products or dental products, just stronger. 

Spearmint is more than an additive for food and dental products, and it’s more than a oil to add to your diffuser to give you energy or open up your breathing passages; it’s much more. Spearmint is an antioxidant and is antimicrobial. Spearmint has also been used for headaches, nausea, respiratory issues, fever, skin issues, and antifungal. Spearmint has even shown promising results shrinking tumors. 

This Spearmint contains 65% carvone, which is the natural compound that makes Spearmint smell like, well, Spearmint. This gives you a strong Spearmint aroma, but not overbearing. It’s milder than Peppermint, so if peppermint is too strong, or you’re simply looking for a different type mint, Spearmint would be a great option.
