A member asked:
I've been eating mints daily for years, i've noticed that over time i required more and more mints to be able to feel the cooling sensation. now i can hardly feel it at all. could this desensitization be reversed? i believe the receptor is trpm8?

What you described is not a meaningful health issue. Go without the mints for a week and see if it beings the sensation back. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
