Obbekjaers Oil Of Peppermint

Overview

Obbekjaers Oil of Peppermint is a well-established natural remedy derived from pure Japanese peppermint oil. It is widely recognized for its antispasmodic properties, which help relax the smooth muscles of the stomach and intestines. By doing so, it serves as an effective digestive aid to relieve common symptoms such as bloating, stomach cramping, flatulence, and general indigestion. 

Product Variants & Usage

1. Obbekjaers Japanese Peppermint Oil (10ml Bottle)

This is a versatile, 100% pure oil that can be used both externally and internally.

• External Use: Excellent for aromatherapy or localized soothing. Massage 2–5 drops gently into the skin to provide a naturally warming and cooling sensation.

  • Caution: Avoid contact with the eyes, open wounds, or broken skin.

• Internal Use: Can be used as a digestive aid. Dilute 1–2 drops in half a glass of warm water and swallow slowly.

  • Note: Always ensure proper dilution; undiluted peppermint oil is highly concentrated.

2. Obbekjaers Peppermint Oil Tablets

These are formulated with a dextrose base, which allows the tablet to dissolve more quickly in the stomach.

• Dosage: Typically 2 tablets taken 3 times daily after meals.

• Use: They can also be sucked when required for a quick release of peppermint oil, providing rapid support for digestion or a feeling of freshness.
