Does anyone ever burp and get a peppermint aftertaste?? This has just started yesterday. When I woke up I tasted the peppermint and sitting here right now I am tasting peppermint after taking a capsule and drinking the tea. It's not horrible but it's not super pleasant either. Does this go away??? Also I posted something about Soy dangers that one lady told me about in a health store I went into. I got one reply back but I was curious if anyone else had heard about soy causing health problems? She even gave me a sheet from a website listing the problems. Thanks!

Yes I know a lot of people burp up the peppermint! I do too.
Just wait till your BM smells like peppermint!! It's really weird.
I stopped taking them, and I don't notice a difference honestly...I just drink the peppermint tea when I have an upset stomach!

I haven't noticed either after the first day or so.. that first day my farts were scented like mint... since then I haven't noticed it at all..
as to the soy- I haven't heard anything bad about it other then that some ways of preparing it aren't easy to digest (GMO)

I burp from the peppermint capsule, but I did not think anything was wrong with that. I can't drink the peppermint tea, it gives me GERD.
I wish my stool would have a peppermint smell. Sometimesd I can't stand being in the bathroom myself! (LOL)
Maybe Heather can enlightened us about the burping. OH Heather!!!!!

Hi Angela,
I posted your exact question about peppermint caps a couple of
months ago. Yes, it does happen, but for me the more my body got used
to them, I burped up less and less. I only have an occasional 'burp-up' now.
My system got used to them after being on them regularly for a couple of weeks. I take 2 1st thing in the morning on an empty stomach and seem to
do just fine with them. If I were you, I'd take them on an empty tummy.
As far as your other question, I'm afraid I can't help you. Hopefully someone else will address that.
God Speed,
Janene

Yes it's normal...I tend to have a peppermint taste in my mouth about 1/2 hour after taking peppermint capsules....i get the occasional peppermint burp as well (and hey....a peppermint burp is way better than any other tasting burp if you ask me).....
