Pharmacology
Pudina is a natural formulation made from Pudina, known for soothing intestinal inflammation and relieving IBS symptoms. It helps reduce hyperacidity and abdominal pain, and it improves digestion. Mentha piperita contains several chemical compounds, including Menthofuran, Menthol, and 1,8-Cineole. Menthofuran can reduce the total acidity of gastric secretions and raise their pH, which may help protect the gastric mucosa. Menthol has been shown to protect against gastric ulcers, potentially by reducing inflammation, increasing mucus production, and modulating prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) level. 1,8-Cineole may protect against gastric damage, including ethanol-induced injury, by acting as a cytoprotective agent that increases gastric mucus. It can inhibit gastric juice volume and total acid output, which suggests a role in managing acid-related gastritis. It may also promote the healing of gastric ulcers, potentially by increasing the levels of gastric mucus.
