[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 683129, member: 1963"] The problem with peppermint is that it relaxes the upper sphincter of the stomach: the one between the esophagus and the stomach. As a result, it can make reflux quite a bit worse. Something to try is catnip tea. Buy catnip herb for tea at a health food store, do NOT make tea out of cat nip for cats as the stuff for cat is often sprayed with add'l catnip oil, and unless you buy certified organic, may have other contaminants in it. Fennel tea can also help the stomach and intestines, assuming you can get past the licorice taste. [/QUOTE]
