Description

doTERRA Wintergreen essential oil

doTERRA Wintergreen essential oil is derived from the leaves of a creeping shrub found in coniferous areas. The main chemical component in Wintergreen, methyl salicylate, is used in topical creams and massage blends because of its soothing properties. In fact, Wintergreen and Birch are the only plants in the world that contain methyl salicylate naturally. As a flavoring, small amounts of Wintergreen are used in candies, toothpaste, and chewing gum. When diffused, doTERRA Nepalese Wintergreen has a refreshing aroma that’s uplifting and stimulating. Through doTERRA’s Co-Impact Sourcing^® initiative, our new source of Wintergreen comes from Nepal where it is wild harvested by rural villagers then distilled by community-owned distillation facilities. This process creates increased economic opportunity for very remote regions in rural Nepal.

doTERRA Wintergreen oil, with its unique cooling sensation, is a must-have. It’s one of only two plants globally containing methyl salicylate, offering a refreshing touch to your routine.

Sourced through the doTERRA Co-Impact Sourcing® program, our Wintergreen essential oil hails from Nepal, ensuring ethical and sustainable practices that benefit both the environment and the local communities.
