Best & Worst Uses of Peppermint Oil
⬇️⬇️ Best & Worst Uses of Peppermint Oil
If you’re on the market for supplements to support better digestion, the first thing to know is that just because something is natural doesn’t mean it’s harmless.
Peppermint oil is a natural supplement that can work wonders in some situations but cause problems in others.
Enteric-coated peppermint oil is best for digestive issues like:
✅ Gas
✅ Bloating
✅ Abdominal Pain
These benefits are well documented in research studies!!
The enteric coating is important because it prevents the peppermint oil from being released in the stomach.
But there are some caveats. Peppermint oil can potentially worsen:
❌ Heartburn
❌ Reflux
Its safety is not known during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and it may interact with some medications.
As a functional medicine practitioner, I make it a priority to stay on top of the research, risks, and benefits of nutritional and herbal supplements because they can be powerful tools in our medicine chest!
