Why people make this tea

Passing gas is part of normal, healthy digestion — around twenty times a day is considered ordinary. But if it becomes frequent and foul, or comes with belly pain and bloating, it’s worth getting checked. Besides eating too many gas-forming or heavy, hard-to-digest foods (which ferment and produce gas), there’s another driver people forget: stress and mood. Anxiety, tension and low spirits all unsettle how the gut moves, and that can make wind frequent. This liver-supporting tea is the gentle answer for that stress-linked kind of bloating.

Method

  1. Rinse all the ingredients; pit and slice the red dates.
  2. Boil in 1.2 L of water for 20 minutes. Serve.

Nourilo’s Tips

This tea is a real help for liver-qi stagnation and for people under work pressure who tense up easily; old and young can drink it. Day to day, eat less spicy and fried food, chew slowly, and cut back on beans, very high-fibre foods and dairy.
