12 Kegunaan Dan Manfaat Minyak Cengkeh

1. Dapat Meredakan Sakit Gigi

Minyak esensial cengkih dapat membantu mencegah gigi berlubang dan meredakan nyeri mulut. Secara tradisional, ini digunakan untuk meredakan sakit gigi. Ini juga digunakan untuk keadaan darurat gigi seperti radang mulut atau tenggorokan. Minyak cengkeh juga telah dilaporkan digunakan dalam pembuatan pasta gigi dan obat kumur tertentu (3). Eugenol, cairan berminyak aromatik yang diekstrak dari minyak cengkeh, digunakan sebagai obat penenang dalam prosedur gigi (4). Cengkeh juga memiliki sifat anti plak. Ini dapat menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri mulut yang dapat menyebabkan plak gigi (5).

Minyak esensial cengkeh juga ditemukan menunjukkan aktivitas antikariogenik dan sitotoksik terhadap sejumlah besar patogen oral (6). Eugenol dan eugenyl acetate adalah dua komponen aktif dalam minyak atsiri cengkeh yang membantu mencegah dekalsifikasi atau erosi gigi (7). Minyak cengkeh paling efektif melawan mikroorganisme penyebab karies gigi (8).

2. Dapat Membantu Mengobati Penyakit Kulit Dan Jerawat

Minyak cengkeh dikatakan bertindak melawan Propionibacterium acnes, bakteri penyebab jerawat (9). Namun, penelitian lebih lanjut di baris ini diperlukan untuk mencapai kesimpulan lebih lanjut.

Sebuah penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Departemen Dermatologi, Kairo, Mesir menemukan bahwa minyak cengkeh efektif dalam pengobatan topikal pruritus kronis (10).

Studi lain yang dilakukan oleh Mansoura University Hospital, Mesir, menemukan bahwa penggunaan krim minyak cengkih secara topikal dapat membantu dalam pengobatan fisura anus kronis (11).

3. Mungkin Memiliki Sifat Analgesik

Pijat minyak cengkeh terbukti efektif mengurangi sakit punggung pada ibu pasca melahirkan (12). Minyak cengkih dikatakan memiliki sifat analgesik yang mengurangi sakit gigi dan nyeri sendi dengan mengaktifkan saluran kalsium dan klorida di kelenjar getah bening (13). Eugenol dalam cengkeh juga telah dipelajari untuk efek analgesiknya (14). Minyak cengkih juga bisa meredakan nyeri pada tikus (15).

Studi lain yang dilakukan oleh Universitas Kuwait menemukan bahwa gel cengkeh mungkin memiliki potensi untuk menggantikan benzocaine sebagai anestesi topikal (16).

4. Dapat Membantu Pencernaan

Minyak cengkih dapat membantu meredakan mual, muntah, dan mabuk perjalanan, berkat sifat antiirrit dan menenangkannya (17). Eugenol dalam minyak atsiri cengkeh memiliki kemampuan untuk merangsang sintesis lendir, faktor gastroprotektif yang penting (18). Namun, penelitian lebih lanjut diperlukan untuk memahami penggunaannya dalam pengobatan tukak lambung.

5. Dapat Meningkatkan Sistem Kekebalan Tubuh

Eugenol dalam cengkeh melindungi membran sel dari kerusakan akibat radikal bebas dan stres oksidatif (19). Dalam satu penelitian pada hewan, minyak juga bisa memberikan peran perlindungan terhadap stres oksidatif yang diinduksi radiasi (20). Minyak cengkeh dikatakan memiliki efek antiinflamasi. Sebuah penelitian menunjukkan minyak cengkeh memiliki efek antiinflamasi yang bergantung pada dosis pada tikus Wistar (21). Juga, minyak ditemukan memiliki efek antinociceptive dan antipiretik pada tikus (22).

6. Mungkin Memiliki Sifat Antimikroba

Minyak atsiri cengkeh adalah sumber senyawa antimikroba yang ampuh yang terutama bertindak melawan bakteri patogen (23). Minyak ini efektif dalam menghentikan pertumbuhan beberapa jenis bakteri dan juga melawan patogen saluran pernapasan (24). Minyak cengkeh juga ditemukan bertindak melawan strain klinis kumparan Escherichia, bakteri spesifik yang sangat resisten terhadap beberapa antibiotik (25). Sebuah studi yang dilakukan oleh Bagian Mikrobiologi dan Teknologi Makanan Laut, Spanyol, menemukan bahwa minyak esensial cengkeh secara efisien membunuh biofilm Staphylococcus aureus (26).

Selain itu, minyak cengkeh bekerja melawan Candida albicans yang menyebabkan sariawan, kutu air, dan infeksi jamur vagina. Eugenol dalam minyak cengkeh dapat memberikan efek anticandidal (27). Sebuah penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Toyama Medical and Pharmaceutical University menemukan bahwa kombinasi asiklovir Sebuah penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Toyama Medical and Pharmaceutical University menemukan bahwa kombinasi asiklovir (obat antivirus) dan cengkih pada tikus dapat mengobati infeksi virus herpes simpleks (28). Campuran minyak esensial dengan minyak cengkih dapat secara signifikan mengurangi virus influenza. Virus yang diobati dengan campuran minyak memiliki ekspresi protein virus yang minimal. Ini berarti minyak cengkeh memiliki kemampuan untuk melawan virus tertentu yang menyebabkan infeksi (29).

7. Dapat Bertindak Sebagai Pengusir Serangga

Minyak cengkeh dapat bertindak sebagai pengusir serangga dan mencegah penyakit yang ditularkan melalui vektor (yang disebabkan oleh parasit pada manusia) (30). Sebuah penelitian menemukan bahwa komponen minyak esensial cengkeh berpotensi berguna dalam produksi pengusir kutu tubuh (31). Minyak cengkeh juga bisa menunjukkan aktivitas pengusir rayap Jepang (32).

Sebuah studi yang dilakukan oleh Mahidol University, Thailand, menemukan bahwa essentialoil cengkeh dapat mengusir chiggers Leptotrombidium yang merupakan salah satu spesies larva. Minyak juga bisa menjadi alternatif yang lebih aman dan lebih murah untuk penolak sintetis yang dapat menyebabkan efek samping (33). Minyak atsiri cengkeh juga menunjukkan daya tahan terhadap Leptotrombidium deliense, spesies larva lain (34). Selain itu, formulasi yang mengandung minyak esensial cengkeh terbukti efektif melawan nyamuk Aedes aegypti (35).

Eugenol dalam minyak cengkeh juga bisa bekerja sebagai alternatif yang menjanjikan untuk insektisida umum (36). Eugenol, eugenol acetate, dan beta-caryophyllene, bahan kimia bioaktif dalam cengkeh, ditemukan memiliki kemampuan untuk mengusir semut api merah (37).

8. Dapat Mengurangi Sakit Perut

Eugenol dalam minyak cengkeh telah terbukti bermanfaat untuk mengatasi keluhan gastrointestinal, seperti sakit perut. Ini juga digunakan untuk mengobati batuk, dahak, dan sesak dada (38). Cengkeh bisa digunakan untuk mengurangi sakit perut. Namun, data terbatas tersedia untuk mendukung klaim ini.

9. Dapat Meningkatkan Kesehatan Kardiovaskular

Minyak cengkih dapat membantu meningkatkan kesehatan jantung. Secara tradisional, ini dikenal untuk meningkatkan sirkulasi darah. Sebuah penelitian pada tikus menunjukkan bahwa eugenol dalam minyak melebarkan arteri serebral. Ini, pada manusia, dapat berarti penurunan risiko stroke (39). Pada tikus, pengobatan dengan eugenol dapat menurunkan tingkat tekanan darah dan bahkan memperlambat detak jantung (40). Dalam penelitian lain, tikus yang diberi makan fruktosa tinggi, ketika diberi minyak esensial cengkeh, menunjukkan peningkatan pada perlemakan hati. Minyak juga bisa mengatur kadar kolesterol pada tikus. Studi ini menunjukkan kemungkinan sifat kardioprotektif minyak cengkih (41).

Pada tikus diabetes, minyak cengkih juga bisa menunjukkan efek kardioprotektif. Ini bisa jadi karena sifat antioksidan minyaknya (42). Studi lain menyimpulkan bahwa eugenol dapat bermanfaat secara terapeutik sebagai agen antihipertensi (43).

10. Dapat Meningkatkan Pertumbuhan Rambut

Eugenol diketahui dapat merangsang akar rambut. Formulasi yang mengandung minyak cengkeh ditemukan untuk mengkondisikan rambut dan meningkatkan pertumbuhannya. Itu bisa memperbaiki batang rambut (44). Namun, penelitian lebih lanjut di baris ini diperlukan untuk mencapai kesimpulan lebih lanjut.

11. Mungkin Memiliki Sifat Antikanker

Eugenol diidentifikasi sebagai salah satu agen yang dapat memiliki sifat antikanker. Ini juga dapat mencegah proliferasi sel kanker dan dapat membantu kematian sel kanker (apoptosis) (45).

Dalam penelitian lain, eugenol bisa menekan pertumbuhan melanoma atau kanker kulit. Pengobatan eugenol dapat mengurangi ukuran tumor hingga 40% dan juga memperlambat pertumbuhan tumor (46). Program Toksikologi Nasional berdasarkan beberapa studi karsinogenisitas jangka panjang menyimpulkan bahwa eugenol tidak bersifat karsinogenik pada tikus (47). Pengamatan serupa bisa diharapkan pada manusia juga.

Dalam penelitian lain, ekstrak cengkeh ditemukan dapat menghambat pertumbuhan tumor. Ini bisa menjadi pengobatan baru untuk kanker kolorektal (48).

Namun, penting untuk berhati-hati, karena eugenol mungkin juga memiliki sifat prooksidan tertentu. Senyawa tersebut dapat menyebabkan alergi dan reaksi inflamasi lainnya (49).

12. Dapat Bertindak Sebagai Afrodisiak

In studies on male mice, extracts of clove (along with nutmeg) could enhance sexual behavior (50). In another study, 50% ethanolic extract of clove produced a significant and sustained increase in the sexual activity of normal male rats. The extract also caused no adverse effects (51). However, more studies are warranted in this regard.

These are the major benefits of clove oil. The oil also has other important uses, which we will explore in the following section.

Other Uses of Clove Oil

• Clove oil blended with cinnamon, orange, nutmeg, or vanilla oils can lift one’s spirits. Using this warming blend in a diffuser will soon fill the room and may also relieve stress.
• Anecdotal evidence suggests that sniffing the spicy aroma of cloves reduces drowsiness and fatigue, irritability, and headaches. It may stimulate the mind and also increase memory recall.
• Cloves encourage the loosening of phlegm from the respiratory system. They also promote sweating during fevers, colds, and flu, which can be very healing. Clove oil is often used in remedies for coughs.
• Like many culinary spices, clove may help relax the smooth muscle lining of the digestive tract. A few drops of the oil in water can relieve nausea. Clove tea may help treat diarrhea, gas, bloating, and intestinal spasms.
• Clove oil stimulates circulation and blood flow to the skin. This may help those with cold extremities.
• Clove oil is as effective as oil of oregano in treating athlete’s foot, nail fungus, and other skin problems. It can be applied directly to the skin or nails (unless the skin is sensitive or broken, wherein it must be diluted with extra virgin olive oil or unrefined coconut oil).
• One drop of clove oil applied to the roof of the mouth may relieve headaches. However, more research is warranted in this regard.
• Clove oil is long used in aromatherapy to relieve pain. For general pain relief, add 3 drops of clove oil to 1 teaspoon of coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil. Apply it to the pain areas.
• A band-aid soaked in a few drops of clove oil can help treat warts. Applying the band-aid to warts may help dissolve them if done regularly for a few weeks.

Clove oil is popularly known as a remedy for toothache. Using oil to relieve tooth pain is simple. Check the following section

How To Use Clove Oil To Treat A Toothache?

Dentists use clove oil as an oral anesthetic and also to disinfect root canals. The oil stops the toothache when dropped into the oral cavity. For temporary relief, dip a cotton swab in clove oil and apply it to the affected tooth. Adding a clove or two to a cup of tea can work miracles on a toothache.

Here is how you can use clove oil to relieve your toothache:

• Dilute a few drops of clove oil in an edible carrier oil, such as olive or coconut oils.
• Dab a clean cotton ball into the solution, and allow it to soak in it.
• Avoiding contact with your gums, apply the cotton ball to the sore tooth. It may take a few minutes of application for you to feel the relief.
• Apply every 2 hours or as necessary.

You can use clove oil in various other ways to achieve its benefits. In the following section we have discussed its most popular uses.

How To Use Clove Oil?

Spray

Using the clove oil as a spray is an easy way to add the clove scent to your room. Clove oil possesses antimicrobial properties, and you can also use it as a mild disinfectant.

To make a clove spray:

• Add several drops of clove oil to water. You would need 10 to 15 drops of clove oil per ounce of water to prepare the spray.
• Add it to a spray bottle. Be sure to shake the bottle well before spraying.

Diffuser

You can also use the oil in a diffuser. While diffusing clove oil, carefully follow the instructions that come with the diffuser. Make sure the room is well-ventilated when you diffuse the clove oil.

Topically

You can apply clove oil to your skin to achieve different benefits.

Massage oils

Use 15 drops of clove oil per ounce of carrier oil to create a 2.5 percent solution of massage oil. This solution can be used as a massage oil for pain relief.

Creams, scrubs, or lotions

For use on normal skin, you need 1 to 2.5 percent dilution of clove oil. For sensitive skin, you need 0.5 to 1 percent dilution of the oil. This diluted solution has no aroma and can be used in the preparation of several scrubs, lotions, or creams.

How Do You Use Clove Oil For Hair Growth?

There is not enough information in this regard. But anecdotal evidence suggests that clove oil acts as a natural remedy to promote hair growth as it contains a number of vital vitamins and minerals. Massaging diluted clove oil into your scalp may boost blood circulation. This could ensure more nutrients and oxygen are supplied to your scalp and hair follicles. To experience the benefits of clove essential oil for hair growth, you can indulge in a hot oil treatment or apply a DIY hair mask prepared with clove oil.

Though clove oil is well studied for its benefits, it may not be suitable for all. The oil may cause side effects in some.

Are There Any Side Effects Of Using Clove Oil?

Clove oil may cause local irritation, rare allergic reactions, and contact dermatitis in some individuals. More severe effects include tissue injury and acute onset of seizures, coma, and damage to the liver and kidneys (52). Clove essential oil is generally recognized as a safe substance when consumed in concentrations lower than 1500 mg/kg. The World Health Organization (WHO) established that the daily quantity acceptable of clove per day is 2.5 mg for every kg of body weight in humans (53).

Hepatotoxicity

High doses of eugenol may harm the liver and kidneys, as per some rat studies. Several instances of severe acute liver and kidney injury have been reported after an accidental overdose of eugenol containing herbal products, largely in infants (54), (55).

May Cause Skin irritation

Excess usage of clove oil can cause skin irritation in some people. Eugenol is an effective substance that is incorporated into many dental products. Contact dermatitis due to this chemical is not unusual. However, true serious allergic reactions are extremely rare (56).

As a primary irritant and sensitizer, eugenol is known to cause contact urticaria as well as chronic urticaria (rashes with dangerous swelling) (57). If you are concerned about your sensitivity to this essential oil, do a patch test before using it. Apply a small amount of diluted clove oil to the inside of your elbow. If you notice signs of skin irritation, like redness, itching, or swelling, don’t use clove oil topically.

May Cause Allergies

It is very rare to have an allergic reaction due to clove oil. The eugenol in the oil may cause oral irritation and heat sensation on the tongue (58).

Drug Interactions

Medications that slow blood clotting (anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs) interact with clove. Hence, avoid using clove oil if you are taking any anticoagulants. Acetyl eugenol, a component of clove oil (Syzygium aromaticum L.), inhibits platelet aggregation in humans. This could lead to bleeding (59), (60).

Avoid using clove oil if you have had a recent major surgery, peptic ulcers, or bleeding disorders, such as hemophilia.

You can buy clove oil from your nearest health store. But before you make a purchase, you need to keep a few things in mind.

What To Look For When Buying Clove Oil

Look for a purity statement on the label

Try to buy 100 percent clove essential oil and look for other ingredients listed (if any).

Don’t go by the marketing hype

Generally, essential oils are not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the same way as drugs. Hence, you should be more cautious of any oil that claims to cure a specific condition.

Make sure the clove oil is in a dark glass bottle

Light has the potential to damage essential oils. Dark glass helps keep the light out. Always ensure your product comes packaged in a dark glass bottle.

If you can, smell it before buying it

Clove essential oil has a unique fragrance. Smell it before buying. If it does not smell natural, avoid purchasing it.

Conclusion

Clove oil possesses many therapeutic properties and has several health benefits. From dealing with dental problems to treating cardiovascular issues, this essential oil can improve human health in various ways. However, excess usage may cause several side effects. Hence, limit its use and consult your doctor if you experience any adverse effects.
