Digestive complaints such as cramping pain, gas, and bloating can easily be addressed with herbs.   Often these complaints are a result of overeating, eating too quickly, or eating when feeling stressed.   In these circumstances, the symptoms can be relieved with the herbs found in our Soothing Comfort Tea and New Leaf Tea. Tea is an ideal form for taking herbs that affect the digestive tract because it comes into direct contact with its mucosal lining.

Recommended Remedies:
Soothing Comfort Tea
New Leaf Tea

Constipation
For chronic constipation that does not improve with dietary changes such as increasing your intake of dietary fiber and drinking plenty of water, the problem may be caused by liver congestion or hormonal imbalance.   Doing a three week liver cleanse is an excellent starting place, as is use of Alterative Tea and Castor Oil Packs.  

Recommended Remedies:
Herbal Cleansing/Detoxification
Alterative Tea
Castor Oil Packs

Further information about herbal remedies for digestion and constipation is available in Chapters 4 of Herbal Medicine for Health & Well-Being.
