Pennyroyal Powder: Overview
Pennyroyal powder is derived from the dried leaves of Mentha pulegium (European pennyroyal) or Hedeoma pulegioides (American pennyroyal). It has been traditionally used in herbal medicine for its strong minty aroma and potential benefits as a digestive aid, insect repellent, and menstrual stimulant. However, it contains pulegone, a toxic compound that can cause severe liver and kidney damage, making internal use highly dangerous. Historically, pennyroyal was used to induce menstruation and even as an abortifacient, but due to its toxicity, modern herbalists advise against ingestion. It is primarily used in aromatherapy and natural insect repellents.
