Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Pennyroyal
Metabolic Effect: Pennyroyal has digestive and carminative properties. Thanks to the essential oils it contains, it can relieve stomach discomfort and regulate bowel movements.
Consumption Recommendation: It is usually consumed as tea or used to flavor dishes. Fresh leaves can be added to salads or dried leaves can be used as a spice.
Things to Consider: It should not be consumed excessively by pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, as it can be toxic in high doses. It is important to pay attention to the daily consumption amount. One cup of tea is usually sufficient.
Exercise Equivalent: About 100 minutes of light-paced walking is enough to burn the calories in 100 grams of pennyroyal. Alternatively, climbing stairs for 5 minutes can provide the same effect.
