In my cup: peppermint tea

Peppermint tea:

It is said to ease such problems as irritable bowel syndrome, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, headaches and baby colic;However, peppermint has muscle relaxant properties and therefore may relax the lower esophageal sphincter, allowing the contents of the stomach to move upwards into the esophagus. For this reason, patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are advised to avoid peppermint, at least in theory. On the other hand, precisely because it calms and relaxes the muscles along the intestinal tract, thus reducing spasms, peppermint may have beneficial effects in treating digestive symptoms like diarrhea and colic. Peppermint also seems to be effective in relieving intestinal gas and indigestion.
