Peppermint is an aromatic plant, a cross between water mint and spearmint. Benefits include helping to manage digestive problems, nausea, headaches, and other health issues.
Peppermint is used to add flavor or fragrance to foods, cosmetics, soaps, toothpaste, mouthwashes, and other products, and it may have some medicinal uses.
A person can also use dried or fresh peppermint (Mentha piperita) leaves to brew tea.
