No bad effects: Smoking mint leaves usually leaves the person with a menthol flavour when used. Mint leaves have been known to treat a number of health complications like bronchitis, nasal congestion, itching, rheumatism, toothaches and wasp stings. However, the user may experience nausea, heart burns, headaches and muscle tremors.
