Relieving gallstones
My gallstones can be agony, but since I've been taking peppermint oil capsules they've been loads less painful. I bought Boots Feel the Difference Peppermint Oil, 60 capsules for £5.49.

I have painful gallstones, but drinking peppermint tea every day helps ease the pain. Apparently it helps to dissolve the stones and also soothes the stomach.

I am going to try mint tea. Before I was diagnosed with gallstones I became ill on holiday and the very thought of drinking coffee made me very nausious. I found this very odd. I now drink lemon tea and have no problems digesting it.
