Indications & Uses
Medimint is indicated for:
Pharmacology
Peppermint Oil eases both the painful abdominal cramping and the uncomfortable bloating that come with IBS. It works as a relaxant and antispasmodic, acting mainly on the muscles of the large bowel (colon), and is particularly effective for bowel spasm, especially in the large bowel. It also has carminative, antibacterial, and mucolytic properties. By easing the uncomfortable feeling of fullness and bloating, Peppermint Oil helps gas pass more easily through the bowel, which in turn relieves the cramp-like pain that comes with it.
