Fennel Tea is really great fro soothing the tummy. The germans have been giving babies fennel tea sooth wind and colic fro hundreds of years.  I love it with half a spoon of honey.
I do like Colpermin as well - really good for the digestion. DG x

Colpermin and another drug (Motillium I think) saved my Life when IBS symptoms became unbearable.  I still don't know how I got through the afternoon before going to the GP who then prescribed medication.

After 3 days I knew I would live.  So smelling of peppermint wasn't a problem  ;)

Liquorice tea is lovely but I stopped it because liquorice lowers your potassium levels and I know mine are low, the GP did a blood test.
