Addressing Product Safety

General Safety Overview (Aromatherapy Use)

Mentholated nasal inhalers formulated with essential oils are generally considered safe for aromatherapy use when used as directed. These products are intended to deliver aromatic vapors, not medication, and are commonly used to provide a cooling, refreshing sensory experience.

Important Safety Considerations

  • Avoid contact with eyes. Menthol and essential oils may cause irritation.

Regulatory & Claims Clarity

Bottom Line

When used responsibly and according to instructions, mentholated essential-oil nasal inhalers are widely used and considered safe for aromatherapy purposes. As with any aromatic product, individual tolerance varies.


Aromatherapy + Caffeine Use Overview

Some nasal inhalers incorporate naturally derived caffeine to complement the aromatherapy experience. To put this into perspective, an 8-oz cup of coffee contains approximately 95 mg of caffeine, a 12-oz can of cola about 34 mg, and a 16-oz energy drink up to 160 mg—all typically consumed in a single sitting.

By comparison, Z!ngha + Caffeine contains approximately 35.6 mg of naturally derived caffeine (Coffee Arabica extract) in the entire device, delivered gradually across many individual inhalations over its full lifespan. This means each inhalation provides only a very small, nominal amount of caffeine, intended as a gentle, supplemental sensory pick-me-up rather than a concentrated stimulant dose.

The experience is designed to be incremental and dispersive, not comparable to consuming caffeinated beverages, and is meant to complement daily routines without the intensity associated with high-dose caffeine intake.

This product is intended for aromatherapy use only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Individual sensitivity to caffeine varies; users should discontinue use if discomfort occurs and consult a healthcare professional if they have concerns.
