The 22 species of the Agastache genus contain mainly terpenoids and phenylpropanoids. Sylwia Zielinska and Adam Matkowski have highlighted their anti-viral, anti-microbial, anti-mutagenic, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-nociceptive, anti-atherogenic and anti-oxidant medicinal properties. Other researchers have specifically highlighted Agastache rugosa's anti-emetic, anti-cancer, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-HIV properties. The six carotenoids found in Agastache rugosa are: lutein, beta-carotene, alpha-carotene, violaxanthin, antheraxanthin and zeaxanthin. These carotenoids are found much more in the leaves than in the rest of the plant.
