Common questions
What is the best herbal tea for bloating?+
Peppermint has the most research behind it, though the trials used oil capsules rather than tea. Ginger, fennel, cumin and ajwain teas are traditional after-meal drinks across India. The free guide labels each one honestly, so you can choose.
What is CCF tea?+
CCF stands for cumin, coriander and fennel: three seeds simmered together into a light, golden tea. It is the best-known after-meal tea in Ayurvedic kitchens. The full recipe is in the free guide.
