Interested in Fennel Tummy Tea? Get an even better deal with the IBS Diet Kit #1! Heather's Tummy Tea™ Fennel ~ A Medical Food for the Dietary Management of IBS Clinical studies have shown that fennel, as part of the diet, helps regulate contractions of the small intestine and aids gas expulsion. Fennel also relaxes the gut, which can relieve spasms of the GI tract. As a result, fennel assists in the dietary management of IBS symptoms, and is exceptional for IBS bloating, gas and abdominal pain. Fennel is also a traditional digestive aid for colic, heartburn, indigestion, and stomachaches. Heather's Tummy Tea™ is packed in very generous quantities because it is meant to be used daily as a medical food for IBS; brew a delicious cup of tea several times a day, every day, as part of your dietary management of IBS symptoms. Heather's Tummy Tea™ Fennel is unique because it is formulated to contain a high volatile oil content and whole seed size (both factors are integral to the quality and potency of fennel); it is harvested and packaged to be as fresh as possible; and it is processed for minimal volatile oil dissipation. It is the volatile oils in fennel that make it so effective for the dietary management of IBS symptoms, particularly bloating and gas. Our fennel is certified organic and is guaranteed to be the freshest, strongest, and most delicious fennel tea available! If you're used to drinking fennel tea from store-bought tea bags, you'll find the difference in strength and taste of Heather's Tummy Tea™ nothing short of astonishing. Fennel's primary volatile oils are are anethole, fenchone, and estragole. Anethole is known to have a relaxing effect on the intestine. Fennel also has antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.
Fennel's documented use goes back to ancient China, and the plant is mentioned in virtually every European work on herbal medicines from ancient times to modern day. The mild licorice-flavored seeds are native to the Mediterranean, were known to the ancient Greeks, and were spread throughout Europe by Imperial Rome. In the 1st century A.D. Pliny attributed 22 healing properties to fennel. According to Chaucer, the 14th century English poet, fennel was one of the nine holy herbs of the Anglo-Saxons. The United States once listed fennel as an official drug to be used for digestive problems, and today the herb is still used daily as an after-dinner digestive aid from India to Italy to Spain. Fennel is classified as GRAS (generally recognized as safe) by the FDA - there are no limitations on its use as a daily digestive aid. Fennel is so safe it's even used to treat infants with colic. Brew Heather's Tummy Tea™ ~ Organic Fennel as teabags or as loose tea; for the loose tea, use any type of tea strainer, tea ball, or tea press. Brew with boiling water, but do not actually boil the teabags or loose tea in water as this can destroy its volatile oils, and thus its effectiveness. Fennel tea (like all of Heather's Tummy Teas™) is naturally caffeine-free, as it does not contain any actual tea leaves (tea is a specific plant, even though other herbal drinks are commonly called "teas"). The stronger you brew this tea the more effective it will be. Lightly crushing the seeds before brewing them with hot water will increase their strength. The teabags are unbleached and organic-suitable. Fennel tea can be sweetened with a little honey or plain sugar if you wish but I also think it's delicious plain. It can be chilled into iced tea, but remember that ice-cold beverages on an empty stomach can trigger GI spasms, whereas the heat in hot teas is in and of itself a muscle relaxant. The stronger the fennel tea, the more pronounced its beneficial effects on your digestion, so don't be afraid to make a dark brew!

**Customer Reviews of Heather's Tummy Tea™ Fennel** Heather, I just want to thank you so much for the Fennel and Peppermint Tummy Teas!! You have saved my life...I have been battling IBS for 30 years and nothing has helped me as much as the Tummy Teas! I have been drinking the teas faithfully for about a week now and I can tell you that my pain is nothing like it has been! The teas are so soothing and have helped me with my bloating. May God Bless you for helping me!!! Sincerely, Carol Dellinger ******* Heather, Your Fennel Tummy Tea really works. I thank God for finding your support site. After drinking one cup of the tea I felt better. Jerry S. ******* Dear Heather, I wanted to tell you about my last 3 years with IBS. I'll make it short. Until I found your web site and the use of Fennel Tummy Tea, my life had been terrible to say the least. I had surgery on my hiatal hernia 3 years ago called a Nessin Fundulplication. Six months after the surgery I developed what doctors called IBS. I lost 24 pounds in 4 months. I was so weak from losing so much nutrition that I spent most of my time in my house in bed. made myself eat but had to be very careful as you know. I paid doctors over $12,000.00 in deductibles over the past 3 years. I was so bloated with gas and extreme discomfort in my stomach. I found out finally that that surgery can cause a lot of intestinal agony. I would spend hours on the internet looking for any relief.I tried all kinds of over the counter drugs to prescription drugs from the doctors. Nothing gave me relief from the spastic colon to all the bloating and the pain and so much diarrhea. I started on the Fennel Tummy Tea over a month ago. In just 2 days I lost all the bloating and gas and the pain in my upper stomach. I was apprehensive about these results but kept drinking 3 times a day. Most of my problems are gone. I just can't believe that such a simple little cup of tea has done so much for me. I can't say enough about this wonderful natural seed. AND I want to thank you for all your years of investigation leading to your website and all the help you have given to so many people. I don't have to take anymore drugs, not even Immodium. I want you to know that I wrote a letter to my gastro doctor and asked her to tell her patients about your website. Again thanks to your help I have my life back!!!!!! I have gained 6 Lbs. back in 4 weeks and have a lot more energy. Keep up the good work! Deborah Naert Des Moines, Iowa ******* Dear Heather, Just wanted to thank you for your Fennel Tummy Tea, Peppermint Tummy Tamers and the Acacia Tummy Fiber. My mom went into the hospital in January for what I think was IBS but the doctors said differently. They said she had a bacterial infection and was sent home. A month later we took her to St. Joseph's Hospital in Maryland and her bowel was completely twisted, she looked like she was 9 months pregnant ( she is 83 years old). They did a CAT Scan and saw how the bowel was twisted. The gastro doctor blew air in her and opened the bowel and so far she as been doing well. My son and I take care of her, she lives with us. My son Paul Digiacinto purchased your products and your IBS recipe book. We have been giving her protein, potassium and have been following your good Acacia fiber for her bowel. I puree all of her food for the time being. I have purchased all soy products. The doctors did not diagnosis her with IBS but all of her symptoms were all related to IBS. We told the doctors what we were doing and they said to go for it. She has been going to the bathroom almost everyday. She just loves the fennel tea. Your products are amazing and just wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your help and especially you wonderful web site. Fondly, Roseanne Fiorucci ******* Scroll up the page for more information or to order Heather's Tummy Tea™ Fennel * This product is a medical food for the dietary management of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), and is intended to be used under medical supervision. |
