Peppermint is a wonderful tonic for the digestive system because it increases the flow of digestive juices and bile and is relaxing to the intestinal tract. Peppermint tea (or even tincture) reduces colic, cramps, and gas, and helps to soothe an irritated bowel. In soothing the lining and muscles of the colon, it helps diarrhea and relieves a spastic colon (often the cause of constipation). Peppermint relieves pain and reduces sensitivity. Taken internally, it can also relieve headaches and migraines that are linked to digestive weakness or stress.
