Peppermint is popular all over the world both, as an ingredient in just about every food imaginable, to freshen breath and to aid in digestion. However, there are many other uses for peppermint, such as relieving the symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and is great for localized pain relief. Peppermint can block pain due to its special cooling properties, likely due to the menthol, though we don’t suggest trying to relieve pain by smoking menthol cigarettes.

You can also use peppermint to remove ticks. If you take a cotton swab with peppermint oil and swab the tick with it, it will release its clawgrip on your skin.
