Hello All,

I was just wondering if the fennel tea really DOES help with gas and bloating!

Can those who have tried this please let me know how it has worked for them?

THANKS!

IBS returned in late July 2013 after taking 2 oral contrasts for a CT scan for cancer follow up. Had more acupuncture with different practitioner in summer 2014, but received little benefit.

Fennel tea is high FODMAP and it may worsen symptoms in some people.

Don't discount the fennel oil form of it in the peppermint + caps for relaxation of colon and gas help, for those trying a combo of this diet and FODMAPS diet.

I have tried it and use it a lot. It helps me. Sometimes takes a few cups or sometime to get where the gas is built up but it helps.
