What are the benefits of peppermint tea?
Peppermint tea really packs a punch when it comes to health benefits.
- Caffeine-free – peppermint is naturally caffeine-free, meaning it can be enjoyed at any time of the day.
- Aids digestion – peppermint tea has long been believed to help relieve digestive complaints such as upset stomach, bloating and indigestion.
- Inflammation reduction – peppermint can act as a relaxant as the compound methanol allows for easier blood transportation as it increases blood flow. This can see reductions in aches, pains and may even help things such as headaches and migraines.
- Mouth health – peppermint freshens your breath and contains antibacterial properties to help fight off germs.
- Increased focus and energy – the natural properties in peppermint have been shown to help with perceived levels of energy and increased levels of focus.
- Allergy symptoms – peppermint contains acid rosmarinic, which has been shown to be a reliever of allergic reactions associated with things such as hay fever, asthma causers and pet allergies.
- Sinuses – peppermint contains methanol, an anti-inflammatory compound, which increases the level of nasal airflow, helping you to breath more freely.
Are there any side-effects to peppermint tea?
- Some people may be allergic to mint: touching the leaves can cause skin irritation, and consumption of peppermint tea may result in an itchy tongue or throat and wheezing or a cough.
- Peppermint tea can exacerbate symptoms of GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), hiatus hernia and kidney stones.
If you are at risk of a mint allergy, we recommend you speak to your healthcare professional before trying Twist Tea’s Digest tea.
