Spearmint Powder: Overview
Spearmint, also known as garden mint, common mint, lamb mint and mackerel mint, is a species of mint, Mentha spicata, native to Europe and southern temperate Asia, extending from Ireland in the west to southern China in the east. It is used as a flavoring in food and herbal teas. The aromatic oil, called oil of spearmint, is also used as a flavoring and sometimes as a scent. Spearmint has a pleasantly sweet taste and is frequently used to flavor toothpaste, mouthwash, chewing gum and candy. One common way to enjoy this herb is brewed into a tea, which can be made from either fresh or dried leaves.
Uses and Benefits of Spearmint Powder
Spearmint is an herb. The leaves and oil are used to make medicine. Spearmint is used to improve memory, digestion, stomach problems, and other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses. The oil in spearmint contains chemicals that reduce inflammation (swelling) and change levels of chemicals called hormones, such as testosterone, in the body. Some chemicals might also harm cancer cells and kill bacteria. It is also used to help alleviate symptoms of nausea, indigestion, gas, headache, toothache, cramps, and sore throat. It is also applied topically, to the skin, to help reduce swelling due to nerve or muscle pain.
Rich in Nutrients: While not typically consumed in large quantities, mint does contain a fair amount of nutrients. Mint is a particularly good source of vitamin A, a fat-soluble vitamin that is critical for eye health and night vision. It is also a potent source of antioxidants, especially when compared to other herbs and spices. Antioxidants help protect your body from oxidative stress, a type of damage to cells caused by free radicals.
Decline in memory and thinking skills that normally occurs with age: Early research shows that taking an extract of a special type of spearmint daily might help with thinking skills in older adults who have started to notice problems with thinking.
Memory and thinking skills (cognitive function): Taking spearmint extract might improve attention in some people. Spearmint extract does seem to improve most other measures of memory and thinking skills. Chewing spearmint-flavored gum does appear to improve measures of memory of thinking skills in healthy adults.
Male-pattern hair growth in women (hirsutism): Early research shows that drinking spearmint tea twice daily for up to one month can decrease levels of male sex hormone (testosterone) and increase levels of female sex hormone (estradiol) and other hormones in women with male-pattern hair growth.
A long-term disorder of the small intestines that causes stomach pain (irritable bowel syndrome or IBS): Early research shows that using 30 drops of a product containing lemon balm, spearmint, and coriander after meals for 8 weeks reduces stomach pain in people with IBS when taken along with the drug loperamide or psyllium.
Osteoarthritis: Early research shows that drinking spearmint tea reduces pain and stiffness by a small amount in people with knee osteoarthritis.
Nausea and vomiting after surgery: Use of aromatherapy with oils of ginger, spearmint, peppermint, and cardamom seems to reduce symptoms of nausea in people after surgery.
May Help Relieve Indigestion: Mint may also be effective at relieving other digestive problems such as upset stomach and indigestion. Indigestion may occur when food sits in the stomach for too long before passing into the rest of the digestive tract.
May Mask Bad Breath: Spearmint-flavoured chewing gum and breath mints are some of the first things people reach for when trying to prevent or get rid of bad breath.
