Description

Peppermint is best known for its digestive, anti-inflammatory and mind-stimulating properties. Although the essential oil should be used only in small doses, hydrosol has no contraindications, although it is still considered contraindicated in children under three years of age.

Digestive par excellence peppermint is useful in the treatment of abdominal colic, bloating, heartburn or reflux, and all types of indigestion. Also try it if you have Crohn’s disease, colitis, or irritable bowel syndrome, as it makes it much easier for many people suffering from these conditions. It can be combined with basil hydrosol to increase the antispasmodic effect and complete the alternating diarrhea / constipation cycle. Peppermint is an effective gastrointestinal cleanser with mild antibacterial and anti-fermentative properties and is the hydrosol to drink combined with Roman chamomile during parasite cleansing. To treat parasites, take sixty milliliters of peppermint along with Roman chamomile diluted in one liter of water.

A three-week treatment of plain peppermint will do wonders for bad breath or acneic skin by detoxifying both the liver and the colon. Acne, which is very red and irritated, can be topically applied with hydrosol; use twice a day for internal treatment. Externally, it fights itching and burning by quickly relieving allergic reactions, bites and stings, as well as a good cleanser for the face or genitals from irritation or itching in men and women.

It has an anti-inflammatory effect both internally and externally. Peppermint can be used to treat hydrotherapy for stiff muscles, pain, lower leg cramps, sprains and sprains. Poured into hot water will have a cooling effect; poured into cold water will have a heating effect. The alternation of the two types of compresses is the most dramatic and profound treatment. In France, it is recommended to spray it on the décolleté area as a tonic for the chest line, and it is even more effective in combination with black spruce hydrosol; to put it mildly, the effect is uplifting!

Mentally stimulating, peppermint is the wake-up water. Drink it in the morning to get your whole body going, including to the bathroom. Spray it on the face to revive hot weather or tired, or use it to soothe heat waves. For students and entrepreneurs, it will be an effective means of concentrating on learning or writing, as it calms and cools nerves by stimulating the brain.

Slightly sweet hydrosol can be used as a sugar substitute. Try cooking it in ice cubes or as a delicious drink hot or cold.

Avoid giving to children under three years of age.

The hydrosol is charged with bio-active energy, so it will help as much as it is needed and who needs it.
