    Mint is commonly known as Pudina in South Asia. It is a generalized term that covers many species of the genus Mentha. These species are very similar to each other in appearance but have differences in their chemical composition. 

    It is consumed in the form of several foods and beverages. You can add them in savouries, chutneys, sauces, salads, desserts, tea, refreshing drinks, detox drinks, etc.  

    Here are some mint benefits that you can’t ignore;

    Add a tiny amount of honey in crushed mint leaves, apply it on your face for 20 minutes, and wash with water afterwards.

    Mint medicinal uses are not confined to your skin or digestion, instead, it has many other health benefits. It improves your oral health. It has germicidal properties that help in killing bacteria, causing bad breath. You can chew mint leaves or drink mint water to refresh your breath.

    Peppermint oil is used in aromatherapy. Peppermint benefits are almost the same as other types of mint, but for aromatherapy, peppermint oil is used. It relaxes your mind and controls your anxiety levels. It also fights your depression, as it helps in the release of serotonin in your brain. 

    You can add mint to your tea, use a candle with a mint aroma, add mint extract in a vaporizer or take a bath with mint oil to calm your mind and body. 

    7. Helpful In Asthma:

    Mint leaves have anti-inflammatory properties that help in soothing asthma patients. It relieves congestion and acts as a relaxant. 

    8. Pudina For Congestion:

    9. Boosts Your Immune System:

    The mint leaves are full of vitamins and minerals that help make your immune system stronger. The antioxidants present in mint leaves also protect the cells from damage and reduce the chances of life-threatening diseases like cancer.
