Your stomach is at it again — and while you’d rather be enjoying the people you’re with, all you can think about is your discomfort. When you’ve had too much to eat, are nauseous from expecting, or simply have an easily-disrupted digestive system, you need some quick relief!

Herbal Teas for Digestion

Herbal teas can be a great supportive element in a whole-foods diet, nourishing your body, and restoring balance. One step further, these infusions can give you the nutrients you need without the jitters of caffeine. 

Here are ten of our favorite teas that can give your stomach support and healing. When blended with other herbals, these teas and tea ingredients can provide a super house of stamina when you’re feeling less than your best. 

Stop Indigestion

Ginger 
Ginger root is a common aid for digestive tract health and can help treat constipation, nausea and vomiting, belching and bloating, and gastritis and indigestion. One study even found that ginger could help reduce the presence of the H. Pylori bacteria. This standard in digestive health is the first that many reach for when they are feeling unwell.

Marshmallow Root
Marshmallow Root has long been held as a digestive aid. One study showed it is beneficial in treating intestinal obstructions, gastritis, constipation, and other common issues.  

Natural Remedies for Heartburn

Licorice has the unique ability to improve digestion and can help individuals who experience heartburn. One study saw “an increase in the secretion of serotonin and prostaglandins in the stomach that led to a decrease of gastric inflammation.” 

Whether you are struggling with recurrent acid reflux or simply have occasional digestive issues, licorice can help you relieve your symptoms. Additionally, some of licorice’s nutrients have been linked to antiviral, antimicrobial, anticancer, and anti‐inflammatory activities, but more research is needed to confirm all of these benefits.

Slippery Elm produces better mucosa to prevent irritation of the throat when stomach acid presents a problem with GERD. Studies have shown its benefits for people who struggle with IBD and IBS.

Chamomile is commonly taken at bedtime for its calming properties. But this flower has so many other potential benefits — it is one of the superpowers in the plant families! For digestion, Chamomile can help eliminate gas, work as a digestive aid, and lower stomach acids in fighting reflux. 

Improving Overall Digestive Health

Lemon can help address a variety of health needs - from Vitamin C and immune-boosting to antibacterial properties, Lemon is another superfood. Lemon peel contains polyphenols (LPP), and one study demonstrated that the LPPs can improve microbiome in the intestinal track. 

Dandelion can help reduce inflammation, relieving stomach cramps. It can also help the body produce gastric juices, breaking down food and complex carbohydrates, improving insulin acceptance.

Honeybush and Roobios teas, made from the same family of plants but prepared differently, provides “antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-mutagenic and cancer inhibition properties.” Rooibos specifically can help relieve stomach cramps and diarrhea. These two teas can have anti-diabetic effects and help in breaking down foods for digestion. 

Cinnamon Bark Tea
Cinnamon bark can help gastrointestinal issues, like upset stomach and flatulence as well as bacteria that attacks the stomach. Some studies show that it, in combination with other natural remedies, can improve IBS symptoms.
