Peppermint extract is a brown powder substance raised from the aerial part of the Lamiaceae plant Puhe, and the volatile oil is the main active ingredient, which is customarily called peppermint oil or peppermint crude oil; a large number of colorless substances precipitated at low temperature are called menthol; The oil from which part of the menthol is removed is called peppermint oil; the refined product of peppermint oil is called peppermint white oil. All these commodities have different quality requirements in the international market. The main components of peppermint oil are L-menthol and flavonoids, which have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, and also have important regulatory functions on the central nervous system, digestive system, and antibacterial and anti-inflammatory systems.
1. A small amount of oral administration can excite the central nervous system, dilate the skin blood vessels, and promote the secretion of sweat glands, so it can sweat and relieve fever.
2. It can promote throat inflammation, local vasoconstriction of mucous membranes, and reduce swelling and pain.
3. External use can paralyze nerve endings, relieve pain and relieve fatigue.
4. The decoction has inhibitory effect on human Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and also has obvious antibacterial effect on typhoid bacillus.
1. Used in the food industry.
2. Applied in the medical field.
3. It also can be used as a cosmetic ingredient.
