What are the negative effects of eating too much mint?
bad teeth and weight gain come to mind right away. Diabetes...It's estimated that the average American eats almost his or her entire body weight in sugar every year. Cancer cells love sugar. It's their preferred fuel. The more sugar you eat, the faster cancer cells grow. Your pancreas responds to sugar by releasing insulin, the hormone that escorts sugar into your cells. When you eat refined simple sugars, such as white table sugar, candy, cookies, or other sugar-laden foods, your blood sugar levels rise very quickly. Your pancreas responds by releasing a lot of insulin. That's not good. High insulin levels are one of the biggest risk factors and promoters of breast cancer. Women with high insulin levels have a 283 percent greater risk of breast cancer. The list goes on and on...

Reply:I would worry more about the calorie content in all those candies than the harm peppermint might do.



Mint is very healthy and has been used since Roman times to ease stomach problems. Sterility???? Please! You're fine.
Reply:If she likes it so much, maybe you should buy some fresh mint leaves for her, or a mint plant.

It's healthy. Good for the stomach and breath.
