Ingested in capsules it can be extremely effective for food poisoning, even fish poisoning. Some of Peppermint’s most prominent properties are analgesic, antacid and urinary tract and intestinal antiinflammatory. It is also hypertensive and a cardiac tonic. 

Its main areas of application are shingles, herpes and viral neuritis. Mentha piperita relieves the itching of hives and eczema. Diluted and applied topically it is surprisingly effective to relieve migraines and headaches. Another outstanding property is its ability to counteract dyspepsia, slow digestion and indigestion.
