Spearmint 65% India Essential Oil is obtained from the bright green Mentha spicata.herb, and its name is derived from the fact that it has pointed, spear-shaped leaves.
Spearmint is commonly known as the minty, breath-freshening flavoring agent used in oral hygiene products - including gum and candies - which leaves a cool, tingling sensation that leaves the mouth feeling clean. Believed to be the oldest of the Mints, for centuries Spearmint has been used for its digestive benefits, often being served with or after meals to prevent or relieve gas, bloating, nausea, and indigestion.
