Guest guest Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Is plain chamomile tea okay? I know Elaine says some herbal teas can have a laxative effect - but we haven't had any issues with it. Is it otherwise " legal " Thanks, Lubna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is from our old list: " Chamomile itself is a natural relaxant. So even though it has not flavourings or anything, by way of its makeup it is not legal. It really is used as a natural drug to relax muscles etc but can also be very harsh on the gut. I know it makes me run to the loo. " You can use spearmint or peppermint tea. I make ginger tea with some fresh grated ginger and let in steep in boiling water. I also make chai tea Here's a post on teas: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/pecanbread/message/66205 Sheila, SCD Feb. 2001, UC 23yrs, PCOD 22yrs mom of and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
