Soothes Nausea
The soothing aroma of mint has been shown to help reduce symptoms of nausea, especially in clinical settings. Mint aromatherapy, for example, has been found to alleviate nausea and vomiting in people undergoing chemotherapy. Some studies also suggest that oral peppermint oil may reduce nausea and improve appetite. While most research centers around aromatherapy, the results demonstrate mint’s potential for easing digestive discomfort and nausea.
