Natural Factors, Peppermint & Oregano Oil Complex, Digestive Aid for Gastrointestinal Health, 60 softgels

Reliable product. Good for the gut. Good for irritable bowel syndrome indigestion, respiratory problems, headache, nausea, fever according to published information. Does have some after taste of peppermint. This may bother some people. Gets rid of excess gas too. Peppermint may have some antibacterial properties. Oregano oil is antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and antiparasitic according to literature. Some Herbal products may kill off bad bacteria in the gut, while preserving the good bacteria in the gut, where as antibiotics kill off both the bad and the good bacteria in the gut. Then you're still left with an unhealthy gut. Over the counter or RX products to treat digestive tract problems may treat the symptoms while the underlying problem is still there. I seem to get better results from the herbal products than I have with over the counter products. Possibly because they attack the bad bacteria in the gut while allowing the good bacteria to flourish. And I seem to have a healthier gut overall just taking the herbs. It is said that pregnant women should not take Oregano because it may reduce blood flow to the uterus. Herbs can interfere with medications too. I would say do your homework before taking any herbal supplement but once that is done, I would recommend this product for those who have problems with the gut. There are other formulas with ginger and fennel added for extra care of the stomach, depending on your specific need. This product worked great for me during flare ups of bloating and discomfort.

I was looking for peppermint capsules to help with the huge gas manufactuing facility in my bowels lately. I didn't know I could find it combined with oregano oil, but since I was looking into that too, I was very happy to find this combo. Currently, I take one in the morning, one at night. The first noticeable improvement is the lack of gas during most of the day. I'd say that by late afternoon, I should take another.While there's been less gas, there has been a noticeable increase in stool productivity, if you catch my drift. That has to be a good thing. No pain, no IBS with my stressful life. NICE. I'm getting more now so I don't run out. If there are other benefits I'm getting, I haven't caught on to them yet. I'm just happy that it's doing what I needed, and hope that it's doing more things I don't know about yet! Cheers!

This product works. It significantly calms my chronic indigestion. I give it only 4 stars due to two unfortunate but not intolerable side effects. First, it appears the enteric coating is not 100% successful as the peppermint oil will "repeat" on you. There is some occasional peppermint after taste. In addition, sometimes there is a slight burning sensation with bowel movements the following day. Again, though both are mildly annoying, neither is so unpleasant as to lead me to stop using the product because it works quite well at calming my stomach.

The product is great ! Works well unlike the USPS terrible service by their drivers .

Been using oregano oil for years to keep intestinal flora happy and support immune system. (I do not use it daily, and sometimes go months without it). Sure comes in handy at the first sniffle or cough, though! Take these right away and usually symptoms will subside. I like the addition of peppermint oil. The "after taste" is so much better than oregano oil by itself, and it freshens the breath, of course, as well. Great supplement to always have in my natural medicine cabinet.

Haven’t noticed any difference if I take these or not.

Years ago after finding out I had IBS due to horrendous lower abdominal pain, bloating and I learned peppermint oil was good for intestinal spasms. The Dr. Initially prescribed me Bently which did little other than make me horribly drowsy at work with dry eyes and dry mouth (it's also since been taken off the market due to people going into cardiac arrest on it, lovely right?). I started with peppermint oil capsules and it's helped so much! I started taking these two years ago and after about 15-20 minutes, my intestines stop wrenching and aching. My son also deals with IBS and finds great relief from these as well. I always have them with me and they help me enjoy life instead of wanting to curl up in a ball and cry.

I love this brand! This particular product is one of my favs. Great for digestion. I appreciate that these dissolve quickly and I can actually feel it working. Highly recommend!
