Prevents bloating even if you ate the heaviest food: Drink this tonight before bed
Forget the feeling of heaviness after a late dinner.
TL;DR
- The anti-bloating drink is a warm infusion of fennel seeds and mint leaves.
- It relaxes digestive tract muscles, speeds up food breakdown, and removes toxins.
- Fennel contains anethole, which relaxes smooth muscles in the stomach and intestines.
- A study in PLOS One supports fennel seed extract's ability to improve gastrointestinal barrier function.
- To prepare, steep one teaspoon of fennel seeds and a pinch of mint leaves in hot water for ten minutes.
- Drink the infusion 30-40 minutes before sleep for maximum effect.
- Avoid sugar and take small, slow sips for optimal results.
