Mintec peppermint oil capsules are a treatment for IBS that uses a natural ingredient to ease your symptoms.
Details
Just three capsules a day can help to ease cramps, trapped wind, bloating, and stomach pain and discomfort. If you’re suffering with IBS and are looking for a treatment that will help to ease your symptoms without interacting with other medications you’re taking, Mintec could be the perfect choice for you.
