WHAT DOES IT DO?

THI
S BLEND WORKS WONDERS WITH PEOPLE AFFECTED BY CELIAC DISEASE AND STOMACH ISSUES RELATED TO STRESS OR ANXIETY.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

We are what we eat, right? And sometimes, we eat wrong and we FEEL IT. This blend of herbs will help ease your stress and anxiety, indigestion, pain and spasms while relaxing the whole body.

MY TUMMY HURTS is one of my ADAPTOGEN TEAS.

ADAPTOGEN TEAS are so powerful. They help you to ADAPT to situations that cause STRESS AND ANXIETY.

I created this blend years ago, when my youngest child started complaining of ongoing stomach pain. I knew she had certain allergies and I avoided those foods but the stomach pain remained. Then I remembered when I was a child I used to have ongoing stomach pain too. My mum used to give me a blend of herbal medicine that took away all my stomach pain, that I later learnt came from nerves and anxiety. It took me a while but I finally matched the exact ingredients to the taste that I had in my memory. When I gave my daughter this blend, not only did it stop her pain but it’s one of her favourites.

HOW DOES IT TASTE?

  • 🌾 Naturally sweet tasting, making it very palatable. It also has organic apples that makes it even sweeter so no sugar needs to be added to it. It has a little ginger and fennel that give it a spicy taste but overall this is a really nice tea to drink. You will be coming back for more and it can even become part of your daily routine, taken after your main meal or before bedtime.
  • In my opinion, this drink needs to be hot, and for an extra boost, you can add lemon, mint and ginger, all ingredients that are highly recommended for digestion.

HOW DO I TAKE IT?

You can take this tea throughout the day. Just use a small amount of herbs (what you can pinch between 2 fingers) and prepare 1.000 ml of tea. Add hot boiled water (but not boiling) and let it sit for about 5 minutes. Don’t add milk. Drink hot or cold and enjoy!

I also like to add a little bit of honey every so often.

Storage: keep leaves in an airtight container that can be resealed and stored in a cool place. I always recommend a glass jar.

Main Ingredients: vervain, olive leaves, lemon balm, chamomile, fennel, ashwagandha
