Popular as Scotch spearmint, this essential oil is a milder substitute for peppermint flavor. Steam distillation process of leaves and flowering buds of the growing plants yields this essential oil. The oil is used primarily to prepare fragrances and as mild flavoring agent. Its medicinal properties are realized in the treatment of gastric troubles and other discomforts caused due to weak digestive system. Thus, this essential oil is a natural healing solution to settle the cases of flatulence, acidity, fever, nausea. Some medical practitioners find it useful for providing relief from asthmatic attacks, vertigo and severe cases of fatigue. Though this essential oil does not go rancid over time, still when lying unused, it can lose its aroma and therapeutic properties over time. Thus, the users must buy it only when they need using it on a regular basis.
