As a way to cope with cold, cough, and flu in the winter season, people often use medicines like Menthol, which has a cooling and soothing effect on the body. Menthol’s health benefits are being studied at present. Menthol is extracted from mint leaves via the distillation process. It is a white crystal that can ease coughs, colds and alleviate pain in muscles and joints. In portable vaporizers, Menthol cools the throat making the experience more enjoyable for the user.
Health benefits of Menthol Menthol’s health benefits include its use as a medicine for various ailments such as headaches, nausea, cramps, and muscle soreness. Furthermore, its benefits go beyond its medicinal use only. It can also be used as a flavoring agent in the vape juice used in portable vaporizers and foods/ beverages such as mints, chewing gums, and candies. In cigarettes and some of the best portable vaporizers, Menthol is available in two forms which are mentholated tobacco and menthol cigarettes. A study published in the journal Pharmacology, Biochemistry and Behavior in 2006 shows that Menthol can help people quit smoking as it reduces withdrawal symptoms associated with nicotine cessation. Menthol is often added to portable vaporizers to meet the demand for ‘lights,’ which contains less tar but more Menthol than regular cigarettes. Moreover, Menthol’s health benefits range from a soothing agent for sore throats, colds, coughs, and muscle and joint pains. Additional menthol health benefits include its use in medical products that help relieve minor aches, pains and symptoms, as mentioned above. The long-term effects of Menthol in the body are limited but can be used as a longterm treatment for multiple ailments. Also, Menthol can help with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), a common digestive tract disorder. Although IBS treatment usually includes dietary changes and medications, studies have shown that taking peppermint oil can be a herbal remedy. Peppermint oil contains a compound menthol, which is believed to help relieve IBS symptoms by relaxing the muscles. A review of nine studies including more than 700 IBS patients found that taking peppermint oil capsules significantly improved IBS symptoms more than placebo capsules. One of the reviewed studies found that 75% of patients taking peppermint oil for four weeks had improved IBS symptoms than 38% in the placebo group.

Many people believe that Menthol is effective in eliminating nasal congestion and improving airflow and breathing. Studies prove the effectiveness of Menthol in improving nasal breathing. People with bad breath usually use Menthol as a remedy. Many experts agree that most of these menthol products can mask bad breath for several hours just like using a wax pen with menthol flavor juice. However, Menthol can only mask bad breath. There is no proof that it reduces the bacteria or other compounds causing bad breath.
What is in menthol Menthol’s health benefits are attributed to its primary active ingredient, which is called 1menthyl ester. It is also used in medicines to treat pain and can be found in over-thecounter brands of medicines. This is why menthol health benefits are being studied further to help fight pain as it is believed to have a direct effect on the nervous system. Studies suggest that part of its analgesic effects are due to its ability to alter neurotransmission, which results in the calming and cooling sensation encountered. Menthol’s health benefits also come from its anti-inflammatory properties. During the extraction process, Menthol is often extracted through steam distillation which removes other ingredients such as pigments and chemicals. The pure menthol extract then undergoes a purification stage to remove impurities that may be present; it is vital to do this because impurities can make it toxic and harmful to the body.

The long-term effects of Menthol in the body are limited but can be used as a long-term treatment for multiple ailments.
