Natural
Peppermint
for Nausea
Peppermint tea, peppermint oil capsules or inhaling peppermint oil aroma for nausea relief.
How it works
Menthol activates cold receptors (TRPM8) which may interfere with nausea signalling pathways. Peppermint oil relaxes gastric smooth muscle, reducing gastric spasm.
What to watch for
Enteric-coated capsules are needed for IBS-related nausea — without coating, peppermint oil can cause heartburn. Avoid in those with GORD.
