We usually buy peppermint in gum, candies, ice cream and the like because it tastes good. But did you know that peppermint is an ancient herbal remedy? According to a Harvard Medical School report "The Health Benefits of Peppermint, http://www.health.harvard.edu/healthbeat peppermint has long been used to treat a variety of abdominal woes such as flatulence, stomach cancer and gall bladder disease.

The Harvard Health Publication article has pointed out that a number of studies have shown that peppermint oil is ‘fairly effective at relieving irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a collection of symptoms that includes abdominal cramping and pain, bloating, constipation, and diarrhea. In 2007 Italian investigators reported that 75% of the patients in their study who took peppermint oil capsules for four weeks had a major reduction in their IBS symptoms, compared with just 38% who took a placebo pill.’

The most abundant ingredient in peppermint oil is menthol, a widely used compound that feels cool and inhibits nerves that sense pain for a time. Peppermint oil also is said to block calcium channels that with the effect of relaxing the muscles of the intestine. It also tends to relax the muscle that keeps stomach acids from backing up into the esophageal tract, not good for those who suffer from heartburn or acid reflux

Many people have discovered the benefits of PepRmint Power™:

“My mother has used your PepRmint Power™ for years, but I never gave it much thought. I was sick with the flu a year ago, and it helped my stomach feel so much better! My teenage boys even use it. They often put spoonfuls in their water bottles. My grandmother started taking PepRmint Power™. She stopped at one point, but she realized how much it had been helping her circulation in her legs as well as helping her digestion…she started taking it again.”
-Kristen Harrell

“I’ve been using PepRmint Power™ for over 30 years now for digestive problems and will take it for another 30 years.”
-Merle Seppelfrick

“How refreshing it is to find a business with integrity and morals in this day of ‘let the public be damned’. A company that takes pride in its products who upon finding a supplier’s product not up to their standards replaces a previously shipped order at no charge.

We are happy to continue our many years as satisfied customers and salute their integrity.”
-Marjorie Paik

“I’ve been taking peppermint powder for over 20 years now for many different ailments. I’ve also advised my students and clients to use it for bad breath, sour stomach, odorous gas, and burping. If blood sugar starts climbing, I suggest taking the Dextrose PepRmint Power™ to bring it down fast. If salt and urea’s are over 15, I recommend the Fructose PepRmint Power™ to bring the sugar down slowly. I also advise my clients and students who have had gall bladder surgeries to take one teaspoon of the Dextrose powder after each meal to dissolve fat. This prevents a build up of fatty deposits in the vascular system.”

I share it with people suffering from: headaches, allergies, and sinus problems, high blood pressure, poor blood circulation, low vitality, indigestion, etc. I highly recommend this natural and safe product to everyone who is interested in a healthy lifestyle and integrative medicine.”
