Are you suffering Tummy troubles? An upset stomach can
turn your day upside down. And if this has been happening a lot, you might
need a game changer. How about you try herbal tea? In today’s Article,
we’re going to talk about 9 teas to soothe your stomach. Is licorice tea
helpful? What about spearmint and peppermint? Should you drink
fennel tea when facing digestive issues? We’re talking about all of these AND
more...
Spearmint Tea
Spearmint is a pleasant-smelling tea from the mint
family. You’ll find it in a number of products like health
supplements, toothpastes, cosmetics, and even mouthwashes. But what makes
spearmint so popular? The answer lies in the vitamins, antioxidants, and
nutrients this wonderful herb has to offer. Spearmint tea is great
for your digestive system. It has a special compound that reduces
digestive distress by soothing your stomach muscles. Spearmint
reduces muscle contractions in your digestive system. There has been a
study on this. People who had irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
were given. supplements containing spearmint
alongside medications for diarrhea or constipation. People who
took spearmint supplements experienced relief from stomach pain, bloating,
and discomfort. That’s not all. Experts have made a discovery. They found
spearmint blocks the growth of harmful bacteria in your
gut. The type of bacteria that gives you tummy troubles and
foodborne illnesses. Wonderful. Isn’t it? So, how do you make spearmint tea?
It’s simple. You can use fresh spearmint leaves or get tea
bags. Boil a cup of water and then remove it from heat. Allow
fresh leaves or a tea bag to seep in hot water. Strain and
serve after 5 minutes. Do you not like the taste? You can always add a
little honey and lime. Make sure you get raw unfiltered honey
for an extra health boost. Raw honey has medicinal properties
that help you further. Did you ever drink spearmint tea before? Do
you like trying different flavours of herbal tea? Which one is
your favourite? Share your preferences with the PAT Fitness community in

Licorice Tea
Licorice has a very
distinct taste. Sweet and slightly bitter if I must say. This
flowering plant is widely used in several traditional medicines
due to its healing properties. It has the power to soothe your
upset stomach. If you’re prone to stomach ulcers, chamomile tea can be a
big help as it fights against them. You’ll experience relief
from a lot of stomach ulcer symptoms like nausea, pain, and
acid reflux. No more heartburn and discomfort. Yay! One particular study
has shown amazing results. 54 people were given 75 milligrams
of licorice extract twice daily for a month. All of them
experienced a significant improvement in episodes of indigestion. Now
that’s a big win! You can buy licorice tea at supermarkets. It is
often found in herbal teas blended with other herbs. Make sure you don’t
exceed the recommended daily amount. Licorice can be dangerous
if taken in high amounts. Ideally, stick to one cup of licorice tea daily.
Fennel Tea
Fennel is a popular
after-dinner mouth freshener in India. Fennel seeds are refreshing
after all. But its positive effects on your health are far
more superior. Fennel tea is very helpful in
relieving constipation, gas, stomach aches and diarrhoea. A study
involving 80 women concluded fennel tea is great for reducing PMS symptoms
like nausea. These women took fennel supplements several days
before and during their menstruation. Another study found fennel tea to
be very effective in stopping the growth of harmful bacteria
like E Coli. You can make fennel tea by boiling 1 teaspoon of
dried fennel seeds with one cup of water. Strain and enjoy your tea. In
case you have a fennel plant in your kitchen garden, you can stepp its
leaves or roots in hot water for 5 to 10 minutes. Your fresh
fennel tea is ready to drink.
Peppermint Tea
Peppermint needs no introduction. Its mouth freshening flavour
already makes it popular. But did you know peppermint tea is
also really helpful with digestive troubles? It helps relax
intestinal muscles and relieves pain caused by cramping. Peppermint is so
effective that a review of 14 studies show that it reduced the duration, frequency, and severity of stomach pain in
kids. Try drinking peppermint tea the next time you’re feeling
nauseated. It also helps prevent vomiting. Wondering how to make fresh
peppermint tea? Crush peppermint leaves in hot water and allow
them to steep in for 10 to 15 minutes. Your peppermint tea is ready to drink.
Chamomile Tea
Chamomile is such a
beautiful flower. So is the tea made from using them. This flavourful
drink is light and soothing. People with anxiety problems are
often recommended to drink it. Chamomile is also great for your digestive
system. It relaxes your digestive muscles and
tissues providing relief from bloating and pain. It helps a
lot in case you have indigestion, nausea, vomiting or even diarrhoea. Do
you feel giddy and nauseous while travelling? Chamomile tea helps with
motion sickness as well. There’s been a study on the effectiveness of
chamomile tea. 65 women undergoing chemotherapy were given
500 milligrams of chamomile extract twice daily. It was
reported that this reduced the frequency of vomiting caused by chemo. Another
study found chamomile tea to be effective on diarrhea. Making chamomile
tea isn’t rocket science. I love how easy it is to make this
one. You just need to let a tablespoon of dried chamomile
leaves steep in a cup of hot water for a few minutes. Tea bags
are fine too.
Black Tea
Are you a black coffee lover? Well maybe you should try
black tea as well. It’s loaded with amazing health
benefits. Especially for your digestive system. It soothes
your stomach and is very effective at treating diarrhoea. How do we know
this? A study involving 120 kids found that black tea helped improve the volume, consistency, and frequency of the bowel
movement. Still doubting it? Just be careful with the amount you drink
each day. Stick to drinking one to two cups of black tea every day.
Caffeine overload from black tea can further upset your stomach.
Ginger Tea
Boil ginger root in water and drink it. Yes,
it’s that simple to get a healthy digestive system. Ginger tea is easy to
make, yet highly effective in treating digestive issues like
nausea, vomiting, and bloating. Ginger helps with cramping and indigestion
as well. In case you suffer from bowel irregularity, try ginger tea as it helps
regularize your bowel movements. If you dislike the taste of a
simple ginger tea, try this recipe. I’m sure you’ll love it. Grate an inch
of ginger and add it to 1.5 cups of water. Bring them to boil.
Strain and add honey, lemon juice, and a pinch of black salt.
You can add peppermint leaves for extra health benefits and flavour.
Green Tea
Green is super popular for a reason. It offers several
amazing health benefits. It helps destress and detox
your body, sooth your digestive system, and relieve bloating.
It has been a natural remedy for diarrhea and infection as well. Green tea
is particularly effective in treating stomach pain, nausea, and bloating.
There are several green tea brands with different flavours available
on the market. Choose the one you like and make it a habit to drink
one cup daily.
Holy Basil Tea (TULSI)
Holy basil is more popularly known as tulsi. This is a powerful herb popular in the India. Thanks to its high medicinal value. This tea is great for soothing your stomach. It’s known to help boost immunity as well. There have been several studies on the effectiveness of holy basil. It’s been reported this wonderful herb protects you against stomach ulcers. Stomach ulcers give you a lot of grief in the form of nausea, heartburn, and stomach pain. One particular study found that holy basil not only protected you against stomach ulcers. It also healed existing ulcers within a span of 20 days of treatment. That’s awesome! Isn’t it? So how do you make this healthy tea? Easy! You can buy holy basil tea bags from the supermarket. Holy basil green tea is quite popular also. Or make a fresh pot of tea using ingredients from your kitchen. Holy basil plant is easy to maintain. You can use a few leaves every time you brew your regular tea. Just add tulsi leaves to the pot and you’re done! There’s another way to make a pot of super healthy herbal tea.
