This is a great tasting herbal tea combination formulated specifically to help dispel gas, alleviate nausea and indigestion, and to help relieve colic. Many of our clients have reported that it has helped correct constipation in their babies as well.  The herbs are all organic or wildcrafted, contain no caffeine, preservatives or additives, and are of the freshest and highest quality possible. The tea comes in a tamper-evident, resealable pouch, which is air-tight and moisture-proof to keep your tea in the freshest condition possible. This tea is also available in a convenient liquid extract ( tincture ) form, which come in a regular alcohol-base or in a non-alcohol version, which is perfect for children or for those who simply prefer a non-alcohol product. Alcohol-based tinctures extract more of the medicinal properties of the herbs, making them a little more potent and effective, and are safe for use by pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. The amount of alcohol per dose is the equivalent of eating a very ripe banana.

Nursing mothers may take Tummy Tea or Tummy Tincture, which will pass through the breastmilk and on to their nursing babies.

Herb Lore's Tummy Tea contains Anise Seed, Fennel Seed, Dill, Catnip, Chamomile & Lemon Balm . The Anise and Fennel Seeds are specific for relieving gas, indigestion and nausea, and for relaxing intestinal spasms. Dill also is an excellent remedy for gas and colic pain. Catnip is used for stomach problems, colic in particular, and is very relaxing and calming to the entire system. Chamomile is also a relaxant and is used to relieve colic , nausea, indigestion, gas and its accompanying pain. Lemon Balm also is used for digestive problems and any accompanying nervousness or restlessness, and it has a refreshing lemony taste. This combination may also help to relieve mild constipation mom and baby, and will help support (and may even increase in some individuals) breastmilk production in nursing mothers.

Tummy Tea is safe for nursing mothers and their babies, but is not recommended for those who are pregnant, in their first trimester in particular, as a few of the herbs in the combination may have some very slight uterine stimulating effects. Due to the Lemon Balm, Tummy Tea and Tincture should not be used by those with hypothyroidism.

Tummy Tea is a combination of extremely effective herbs that usually brings immediate relief. For colicky babies, it is best for the nursing mother to take the tea, which will then pass to the baby through the breastmilk. Never give hot tea or straight tincture directly to a baby! If the baby is in great distress, it is possible to give doses of cooled diluted tea or diluted tincture directly to the baby. The recommended amount is 1/2 teaspoon of tea, or 2-3 drops of tincture diluted in a teaspoon of water, given every 10-15 minutes until discomfort eases. For everyone else (including breastfeeding mothers), the recommended amount is 1 cup of tea three times a day or as needed, or 1-2 droppersful of the tincture three times a day or as needed, dosing every 10-15 minutes until discomfort eases.
