Lippia dulcis
Herbe sucrée mexicaine utilisée par les Aztèques et les Mayas comme édulcorant et remède contre la toux et les affections respiratoires.
Aztec Sweet Herb (Lippia dulcis) is a traditional Mesoamerican medicinal plant used as a natural sweetener and remedy for coughs and respiratory conditions. Its primary active compound, hernandulcin, is a potent non-caloric sweetener, while caryophyllene, linalool, and thymol contribute to its antitussive, expectorant, and anti-inflammatory properties. Evidence is limited to traditional use and preliminary studies (Level C).
Hernandulcin acts as a high-potency sweetener by binding to the T1R2/T1R3 sweet taste receptor, with a sweetness intensity approximately 1,000 times that of sucrose. The antitussive and expectorant effects are attributed to caryophyllene, a CB2 receptor agonist that reduces cough reflex sensitivity, and thymol, which stimulates bronchial secretion via TRP channel modulation. Linalool and flavonoids exhibit anti-inflammatory activity through inhibition of COX-2 and NF-κB pathways, reducing airway inflammation.
