CAUTION
Peppermint, Eucalyptus, and Rosemary Essential Oils are all avoided in younger children because they contain a natural chemical constituent called cineol 1,8 and menthol. According to Robert Tisserand, in the newest edition of Essential Oil Safety. Menthol and cineol stimulate cold receptors in the lungs, and this triggers a reflex in young children which slows breathing significantly, sometimes dangerously.
