Back
and Leg Pain Relief
"I have lived with back & leg pain for close to 20 yrs. I tried muscle relaxers,
pain killers, acupuncture, you name it I tried it. Got hooked on the oils and
after 2 years I'm pain free. I use all the mint oils----peppermint, spearmint,
lemongrass. Good luck use them everyday."
Spearmint stops plaque buildup
"I mix a little bottle of oil (I use almond) and then I add spearmint oil and
peppermint oil to my liking. When I brush my teeth I add a few drops on my tooth brush.
When I a done my teeth feel like I just had them professionally cleaned. My dental hygienist couldn't get
over how she had a bare minimum of cleaning to do."
