Leaves and flowers of the true peppermint, Mentha piperita, in summer, Bavaria, Germany, Europe

Peppermint Mentha Ãâ piperita is a medicinal and spice plant from the mint genus. Peppermint has a stimulating effect on bile flow and bile juice production, antispasmodic in gastrointestinal complaints, antimicrobial and antiviral. For colds, the subjectively perceived cooling effect is in the foreground, which is perceived as refreshing and pleasant. In addition, the active ingredients of peppermint also have a mild soothing effect. Peppermint is therefore also used in teas to calm the nerves and promote sleep.
