Mentha pulegium and M. cervina are traditionally used in Alentejo to flavour fish and “açordas” recipes, as well as for medicinal purposes. The essential oil has also industrial applications in foods conservation. M. pulegium is still common in nature, but M. cervina has been disappearing due to excessive collection, overgrazing and habitat destruction.

Quantitative Determination of Pulegone in Pennyroyal Oil by FT-IR Spectroscopy
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2009Pulegone constitutes a monoterpene occurring in Mentha species and primarily in Mentha pulegium L. (pennyroyal). A major source of human exposure to pulegone is the use of pennyroyal essential oil in flavorings, confectionery and cosmetics. The rapid quantification of pulegone in hydrodistilled pennyroyal oils (which were also "spiked" to increase the ...
