Or hair on your breasts, chin, stomach or other body areas? Try sipping spearmint tea. In a recent study published in the journal Phytotherapy Research, women who sipped just two cups a day had lower levels of testosterone—a hormone that triggers excess facial and body hair when too high—after just five days. And how did the scientists, who are from Suleyman Demirel University in Turkey, make the connection between spearmint tea and testosterone? They became curious after reviewing research that found spearmint extract can lower a man’s libido! To brew: Steep one teaspoon of spearmint leaves in boiling water for five to 10 minutes.
