Happy Gut Tea

Description

Ingredients:

Ginger Root (Zingiber officinale)*: Ginger root provides a zippy flavour component to this tea blend, while providing antiseptic properties, protective antioxidants, and soothing anti-inflammatory compounds to relieve gas, cramps, and other digestive issues.

Fennel Seed (Foeniculum vulgare)*: Fennel has an alkaline effect on the body, which helps to neutralize stomach acid responsible for unpleasant sensations such as heartburn and indigestion. Fennel provides gentle relief from intestinal distress, as it contains properties which alleviate gas and bloating. Recent studies show that fennel may provide relief for those suffering from IBS as well.

Peppermint (Mentha piperita)*: Peppermint leaves contain antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties which help to ease digestive issues, relieve tension headaches and migraines, improve energy and sleep quality, and support the immune system.

Catnip (Nepeta cataria)*: While some may find it to be an unlikely herb for relieving digestive issues, this plant is beloved not only by cats, but by humans as well! Catnip is traditionally used for relieving muscle spasms of the intestinal tract, and can help to relieve gas, stomach cramps, and diarrhea. Catnip helps to rid the body of excess fluid, flushing out toxins and bacteria, and can also contribute to a better mood and more restful sleep.

Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla)*: Chamomile is one of nature’s most gentle and supportive herbs. It works as a digestive relaxant which helps to provide relief from indigestion, gas, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and motion sickness. It can also calm stomach inflammation such as gastritis, and help prevent ulcers as well.
