In the Arab world, herbal medicines are very common! When I was younger, we used to go to the dry grocer (\u0627\u0644\u0639\u0637\u0627\u0631) whenever we suffer from minor aliments like stomach ache, constipation, cough, common cold, etc. He would give me herbs and tell me how to use them! By time, this practice became less and less common. However, recently herbal medicines started to gain more importance, and now we can find some herbal medicines available at pharmacies, prescribed by doctors and advised by pharmacists.<\/p>\n

Mint (\u0627\u0644\u0646\u0639\u0646\u0627\u0639)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mint leaves should be boiled and sweetened. You can drink them cold or warm.<\/p>\n

Mint extract is also available at pharmacies and it can be added to some water and then we can drink it.<\/p>\n
