The oil also contains menthone and menthyl esters, particularly menthyl acetate. It is the oldest and most popular flavour of mint-flavoured confectionery. Peppermint can also be found in some shampoos and soaps, which give the hair a minty scent and produce a cooling sensation on the skin.

Functions :
1. The role of the digestive system
(1) peppermint leaf extract has a significant inhibitory effect on guinea pig isolated ileal contraction induced by acetylcholine or histamine. Peppermint oil has an anti-acetylcholine (antispasmodic) effect on the intestines of isolated mouse intestines, which can cause peristalsis in the intestines of the intestines, but has no effect on promoting intestinal propulsive peristalsis, and sometimes even inhibits. Menthol and menthone have an inhibitory effect on isolated rabbit intestines, and the latter is twice as strong as the former. Peppermint oil also has a stomachic effect, probably because it stimulates the secondary effects of smell and taste.
2. Anti-pathogenic bacteria
(1) Antiviral 100% peppermint leaf extract 10mg/mL can inhibit 10~100TCID50 (half tissue culture infection) in primary cultured rabbit kidney epithelial cells, and herpes simplex virus infection will increase the infection volume without inhibition. . If the concentration of the water extract is increased to 100 mg/mL, the toxic effect on the cells is exhibited. The 5% mint water extract also inhibits orphan virus, such as taking it at the same time as infection, and delaying the onset of the disease. The same plant of peppermint water extract has inhibitory effects on herpes simplex virus, vaccinia virus, Semliki forest virus and mumps virus.
(2) Antibacterial peppermint leaf extract against Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus A and Streptococcus mutans, Enterococcus, Enterococci, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Shigella flexneri, Bacillus anthracis, Diphtheria bacillus, Salmonella typhi , Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Proteus, and human tuberculosis have inhibitory effects. In addition to strong antibacterial activity against a variety of bacteria, peppermint also has a strong inhibitory effect on various fungi such as Candida albicans, Microsporum, Penicillium, Aspergillus, Fusarium and Tusporium.
3. The role of the central nervous system
Oral administration of a small amount of mint extract has a sweating and antipyretic effect. This effect mainly stimulates the central capillary system to dilate the skin's capillaries and promote the secretion of sweat glands to increase heat dissipation. The same genus of peppermint essential oil and peppermint essential oil can prolong the sleep time (50 mg/kg) induced by . Both of them have inhibitory effects on the central nervous system, and the latter can prolong the central inhibition time of mice more than the former. In the measurement of spontaneous activity, the inhibition of the central system by the peppermint essential oil was more effective than the essential oil of the leaf mint, but both had no effect on the conditioned reflex of the rat.
4. Other effects
peppermint leaf extract also has a paralytic effect on the isolated frog heart, and vascular perfusion has a vasodilating effect. Menthol can make rabbits and dogs breathe excited, blood pressure drops, and inhibit the isolated frog heart. The extract of peppermint has an inhibitory effect on the release of histamine induced by concanavalin A (ConA). Peppermint extract has an inhibitory effect on calcium channel blocker receptors and adenylate cyclase, and has obvious protective effects on radiation damage caused by radiation.
