Hi Matt,
I got the capsules from Holland & Barrett, they come in a small green jar. They do help to cool down my stomach if it feels like it's on fire..

Hi, you need the enteric coated peppermint capsules, basically enteric coated ones pass through the stomach and dissolve in intestines, peppermint is a anti-spasmodic and anti-inflammatory and they can work to some degree, worth trying, ask at a pharmacy they sell them, enteric coated ones.
