Dietitian note

Mint, particularly peppermint, has a muscle-relaxing effect. This can relax the LES, a muscle that acts as a barrier between the esophagus and the stomach. When the LES is relaxed, stomach acid can more easily flow back up into the esophagus, triggering heartburn and other GERD symptoms
