The benefits of peppermint go far beyond the good scent. The menthol in peppermint oil "increases blood flow and provides a cooling sensation, possibly easing pain (8Trusted Source). In one randomized clinical study in 35 people with migraines, peppermint oil applied to the forehead and temples significantly reduced pain after two hours, compared to a placebo oil (9Trusted Source).
In another study in 41 people, peppermint oil applied to the forehead was found to be as effective for headaches as 1,000 mg of acetaminophen." Plus, there’s a reason why peppermint is a "common flavoring for toothpastes, mouthwashes and chewing gums. In addition to its pleasant smell, peppermint has antibacterial properties that help kill germs that cause dental plaque — which may improve your breath." (See this site for more details on these peppermint facts).
