History of Pennyroyal

Pennyroyal is in the mint family, and has been used since ancient times for its medicinal properties. It was primarily used as an herbal tea, a food, and as an insecticide. It is native to Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. The botanical name for pennyroyal comes from the Latin word for flea, as it is a great flea repellent. Pennyroyal has many health benefits as it was even believed just by hanging a branch would help fight off colds. During the Middle Ages pennyroyal was common as a spice for food, yet in modern times it is mainly made into a tea.
