We are equipped with a network of nerves which run from our skin to the brain to sense changes in temperature. The receptor protein that senses the changes in temperature is called TRPM8 and it is found in the cold-sensing nerve cells. Menthol cools you down by triggering the TRPM8 ion, causing your skin's cold receptor to become sensitive. Your brain receives the cold signal from your skin and that’s why you feel cold. Pretty cool, huh?
