Peppermint supports the respiratory, immune, nervous, and
musculoskeletal systems. During painful periods and at times of
PMS it assists against cramps, relieves pain and eases tension.
Lessens fatigue associated with pre-menstrual syndrome, dispels
hot flashes associated with menopause. Peppermint's invigorating
aroma enhances alertness and soothes headaches.
Peppermint is one of nature's finest digestives and peppermint
herb is great to help oxygenates the blood - therefore it
assists invaluably in: healing of circulatory disorders,
nervousness, insomnia, flu, headaches, fevers, PMS, stress and
tension. Peppermint herbs makes a superb herbal tonic tea, and
can be used as an after dinner tea - it eases nausea and reduces
flatulence.
The volatile oil acts as a mild anesthetic to the
stomach wall which helps to relieve the nausea of pregnancy and
travel sickness. Because peppermint herbs stimulate bile and
digestive juice secretion, the peppermint therefore helps in
relieving intestinal colic and other associated conditions.

compounds stimulates the brain and increases the capacity to
retain fact and to hold the memory.

Our Promise: Pure Essential Oils
This is the criteria for this essential oil line: From first
distillation, genuine, authentic, unadulterated, pure, holistic,
and therapeutic essential oils all rolled into one. No other
company can boast this. These essential oils are totally unique
because they are free from all chemicals and pesticides,
guaranteed! I stake my personal claim on it - free from
chemicals, free from any kind of chemical or natural
adulteration, and all are single species.
Because the market for essential
oils and aromatherapy is still relatively new—yet growing
rapidly—there are some who take advantage of the situation by
secretly “stretching” oils through dilution and adulteration.
Because we intend not only to set a new standard but to be the
new standard in the essential oil market, every oil we provide
is of the highest quality and purity.
Our “single” oils are true single
species essential oils - with NO carrier oils and our “blends”
are true combinations of single species essential oils. You will
always know what you are getting with our Essential Oils.
Why These Essential Oils and
Extra Essentials are the World’s Finest !!
-
All single oils are derived from
single species.
-
All blends are combinations of
single species oils.
-
All of our oils are both GC and
MS tested and an analysis of both is performed.
-
Each essential oil is inspected
by a third-party source to insure that it meets the strictest
guidelines for purity, authenticity, and therapeutic value.
-
Before crops are distilled into
the oils, each crop is carefully examined for traces of
chemicals or pesticides. Only after it is determined to be
completely free from these adulterations are the crops then
distilled into our essential oils.
-
Our essential oils guarantee you
the best prices for the highest quality oils.
-
We have three independent
“watch-dogs.” These professional aromatherapists help select
our oils, monitor our written materials, advise us on the oil
market worldwide, and provide quality control over our oil
selections.
-
We will NOT raise the cost of an
oil because the "market will bear it".
