I've never had GERD, heartburn or ulcers either. I have tried different brands of peppermint capsules (all enteric coated), with all of them: I tasted peppermint all day, I kept burping up peppermint and I'm not sure it helped my IBS either. it wasn't v pleasant, at all. perhaps try peppermint tea. again you will taste it, but it's not unpleasant and hot peppermint tea esp reduces my bloating like no other. fennel tea has never worked for me.

--------------------
now: stable through EFI+FODMAP dieting (no lactose/no fructose/some fructans and some polyols)

before: IBS-D(pseudo-diarrhoea), bloating, often unbearable pain esp from too much fat: Apr 2007- Dec 2010


FODMAPs: http://www.todaysdietitian.com/newarchives/072710p30.shtml


[I've tried VSL#3 -> I could tolerate v good amounts of IF (even with less SF), it worked great (but overall I find it too expensive)]
