Mentha aquatica
Aquatic European mint and parent of peppermint, used in traditional medicine for digestive and respiratory.
Mentha aquatica (watermint) is a European aquatic mint species and a parent of peppermint, traditionally used for digestive and respiratory complaints. Its primary active compounds include menthol, menthone, menthofuran, flavonoids, and rosmarinic acid, which contribute to its carminative, decongestant, antispasmodic, and antimicrobial properties.
Menthol activates TRPM8 receptors, producing a cooling sensation and mild local anesthetic effect, while also modulating calcium channels to relax smooth muscle, providing antispasmodic action in the gastrointestinal tract. Menthone and menthofuran exhibit antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activities through inhibition of bacterial growth and reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Flavonoids and rosmarinic acid contribute antioxidant effects via free radical scavenging and inhibition of lipid peroxidation.
