Quick answer

Tavalon's Digest loose leaf tea blends lemon balm, orange peel, chamomile, and peppermint to calm your stomach and aid digestion. Brew it correctly to unlock its full soothing potential.

Key ingredients and how they help digestion

Each ingredient in Digest serves a specific purpose. Peppermint is widely known for relaxing the digestive tract and easing bloating. Chamomile adds a gentle anti-inflammatory effect that can soothe an upset stomach. Lemon balm is a traditional remedy for nervous tension that often contributes to indigestion. Orange peel provides a mild bitter note that stimulates digestive enzymes, helping your body break down food more efficiently.

When Digest fits best (and when it doesn't)

This blend works well after a heavy meal or during periods of mild digestive discomfort. Because it's caffeine-free, you can drink it in the evening without disrupting sleep. However, if you have a known allergy to any of the ingredients (especially plants in the mint or chamomile families), consult your healthcare provider before trying this tea. It's not a substitute for medical treatment of chronic digestive conditions.

How to brew Digest for maximum benefit

  1. Use fresh, filtered water just off the boil: Heat water to 200–212°F (93–100°C). Pour over one heaping teaspoon of Digest loose leaf tea per 8 oz cup. Boiling water releases the essential oils from peppermint and orange peel. Don't use water that has been sitting in the kettle.
  2. Steep for exactly 5 minutes: Cover your cup or teapot to trap the volatile compounds. Set a timer and do not over-steep, as this can make the chamomile taste bitter. If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce steeping time to 3 minutes, but know that the digestive benefits improve with a full 5-minute steep.
  3. Strain or remove the infuser immediately: Pour through a fine-mesh strainer into your cup, or lift out your tea infuser. Leaving the leaves in the water will continue steeping and produce a harsh taste. Drink within 10 minutes for the best flavor. This tea is caffeine-free, so you can enjoy it any time of day.
