Neil's Yard Peppermint Essential Oil

Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Oil

There is some clinical evidence that peppermint essential oil can help to reduce post operative nausea and vomiting.

There is also evidence to suggest that the inhaled vapour of peppermint essential oil can not only reduce the incidence and severity of nausea and vomiting but can also decrease the need for anti-nausea medication.

Essential oils are generally safe for use if you have cancer, but they may cause side effects. It's always advisable to check with a herbal expert or your medical team before using any essential oil.

Peppermint essential oil may irritate sensitive skin.
