Refreshing Herbs are items in the Mario & Luigi series used to get rid of any status ailments on the playable character, such as Poison or Fury. Refreshing Herbs resemble four-leaf clovers, and they can generally be bought in shops for low prices. They can also occasionally be found in ? Blocks.

In EarthBound, items called Refreshing Herbs have exactly the same name and function as in the Mario & Luigi series, although they resemble flowering tree branches instead of four-leaf clovers.

Refreshing Herbs can also be found from certain enemies, which have a chance of dropping a Refreshing Herb when defeated. Regardless of which version of the game is played, Fuzzbushes, Yellow Viruses, Pestnuts on the Seabed, and Puffer-Cheeps can drop Refreshing Herbs. However, some enemies can only drop Refreshing Herbs in the Japanese version of the game, including Cheep Cheeps, Glurps, and Queen Bean, who is guaranteed to drop a Refreshing Herb if either her left or right arm is deflated when she is defeated.
