A thought that some of you may be having is “why wouldn’t I just chew mint gum instead of spending 70 bucks on this oil?”.
The biggest difference is dosage amount.
Our formula contains 0.1ml of peppermint oil extract PER dose. In comparison, a standard piece of mint chewing gum generally MAY contain roughly 0.004ml of peppermint oil extract (based on a 2g piece of gum) depending on the size and brand of the gum. Making our formula potentially containing 25x more extract than a standard piece of gum (again can depend on the brand of the gum).
Peppermint aside, our formula consists also of Verbascum and Eucalyptus to further enhance your respiratory performance, ingredients that your gum probably doesn’t have. In addition, our formula also contains Sage, to improve cognitive performance, another ingredient that your gum probably (definitely) does not have.
It’s also important to note that a lot of mint chewing gums contain mostly mint FLAVOURING as opposed to pure oil and extract which means that whilst your gum may provide a similar freshening and cool sensation, it’s not going to provide anywhere near the same respiratory performance benefits that our formula does. In addition to this, any sort of mint extract in gum would be absorbed a lot slower than our formula as it requires prolonged chewing and exposure to the mouth.
In short, you may feel a similar cooling sensation from chewing gum but ultimately the dosage is nowhere near enough to give you the same benefits that our formula does for your performance.
