Mentha-XL® 200 mg Enteric-Coated Pharmaceutical Grade Peppermint Oil Softgel
Mentha-XL is used to relieve discomfort from bowel pain, intestinal gas, cramps, pressure, bloating, diarrhea and constipation commonly seen in Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) sufferers. It comes in a 84cnt softgel package.
Mentha-XL softgels are made of a controlled-release coated soft gelatin that resists the acid environment of the stomach. After passing intact into the small intestine, the softgel disintegrates and the ingredients are released where they work!
Mentha-XL does not include food color dyes which have been removed to reduce potential for allergies. Therefore, Mentha-XL softgels are a natural light golden color.
The new Mentha-XL does not include sorbitol which may cause diarrhea. Mentha-XL is free of many common allergens -- food color free; dye free; gluten free; soy free; corn free; lactose free; ginger free; egg free; nuts free and sorbitol free.
Mentha-XL Softgels are made from bovine gelatin and contain trace amounts of Miglyol (fractional coconut oil).
Each Mentha-XL Softgel is individually packaged in a container closure, commonly called a "Blister Pak", in order to maintain the potency of the peppermint oil and extend the stability of the product. Individual softgel packaging is important because peppermint oil is a volatile oil which evaporates upon exposure to air or to light.
