A member asked:

Are mints good for you?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Neutral: Mints can make your breath improved. The usually do add calories to your diet although this is small. If you use them regularly your should brush your teeth regularly but this is true whether you use mints or not. Handing them out is a good way to make friends and that is good for your psychological well being.
