They also used peppermint supplements to treat awide range of health issues, including colds, sore throats,toothaches and cancer. Western medical practitioners did notrecognize peppermint''s medicinal value until the mid-1700s, whenLondon physicians first began using peppermint extract and oil totreat nausea and stomach aches.

It further states that "menthol... is sometimes included in inhaled preparations for nasalcongestion, including ''rubs'' that are applied to the skin andinhaled." Peppermint extract, therefore, may be useful in clearingthe sinuses.
