Peppermint

About the ingredients

Peppermint is Mentha × piperita, a natural hybrid of water mint and spearmint. The leaf has a crisp, cooling aroma and a long history in food, herbal drinks and digestive traditions. Its distinctive mint character comes from naturally occurring aromatic constituents.

Peppermint leaf is traditionally chosen for an after-meal routine and mild digestive discomfort. These capsules contain leaf rather than the concentrated peppermint oil used in specially coated preparations. Personal tolerance matters, especially for people who experience heartburn. The leaf offers a familiar botanical ingredient with a clearly defined place in meal-related herbal practice.
