Expectorant and Mucolytic

Spearmint essential oil is recognized for its expectorant and mucolytic properties. The limonene and carvone present in its composition help fluidify mucus and promote its expulsion from the respiratory tract, thus clearing bronchial tubes and facilitating breathing.

Anti-inflammatory

This essential oil has significant anti-inflammatory properties. It is able to modulate the body's inflammatory response and reduce the sensations of heat and redness associated with inflammation.

Cholagogue and choleretic

Thanks to its limonene and carvone content, Spearmint essential oil promotes the production of bile by the liver and its evacuation to the intestine. This action stimulates lipid digestion, facilitating the dissolution of fats.

Antiparasitic and antiviral

The ketones present in this essential oil have significant anti-parasitic properties. They help prevent the development of parasites, particularly helminths such as tapeworms and roundworms. The carvone and limonene present in Spearmint essential oil act as a protective barrier against viruses. They slow the spread of viruses in the body, helping to halt their progression.

Calming and healing

The ketones present in this essential oil have a relaxing action on the nervous system, helping to reduce anxiety by inhibiting the transmission of certain nervous messages. Carvone promotes healing by stimulating skin reconstitution after injury, making it a valuable ingredient in skin care products.

Hepato-digestive stimulant and carminative

The ketones and terpenes present in this essential oil promote optimal digestion and support healthy liver function. In addition to its main properties, Spearmint essential oil also acts as a carminative, meaning it helps relieve bloating and intestinal gas.
