Peppermint is the subject of two German Commission E therapeutic monographs, which find it effective “for spastic complaints of the gastrointestinal tracts as well as the gallbladder and bile ducts".

The American Botanical Council provided a summary article supporting the effectiveness of Peppermint for various indications. These uses include “carminative, antiseptic, and local anesthetic” and for “indigestion, nausea, sore throat, diarrhea, headaches, toothaches, and cramps.”

   A prominent herbalist, David Litell,  noted that Peppermint Oil aids the liver and assists circulation at the capillary level.

   A prominent herbalist, Joanne Snow, reports that Peppermint Oil is “used for dyspepsia, flatulence”, citing the British Herbal Compendium, among other literature.

FDA has not objected to claims that Peppermint is “soothing for head and digestion” and has a “soothing effect on the stomach.”
