Peppermint tea can help to reduce gas. In addition, the mint family has properties that can help to reduce inflammation.
Besides, to most people, it just tastes good, without calories from any source.

Peppermint is very good for your digestive track. If you have a stomachache or you are vomiting, sip at peppermint tea, it will put your belly at ease and it may even stop the vomiting. It can also help with menstrual symptoms as well as irritable bowel syndrome and other digestive disorders.
Keep in mind, what works for one person may not work for the next

Hi,
It's really good for digestion and for nausea. I usually drink it if I'm nauseated, and it settles my stomach right down. The warmth combined with the mint is really soothing. I also like to drink it just because it's not caffeinated.
My mom told me that my grandpa used to drink iced mint tea while he was working in the fields, because it was both refreshing and rehydrating.
