An ancient herbal remedy in a New Tea: Belly Ache Be Gone by Glam Gardener
As an herb lover, gardener, tea maker, and friend of many kinds of cuisines, I knew I had to welcome this wonderful herb into the Glam Gardener family.
Our bread and butter (no pun intended) is working in-person markets. We hear directly from our customers exactly what they’re looking for. We’ve been asked for a belly remedy for a long time.
As someone who spent a near decade of their life in digestive discomfort, I wanted to approach this carefully. I spent years trying various diets, going to doctors, getting endoscopies, and buying expensive food sensitivity tests.
I’m very lucky that all of this is behind me and I’m doing wonderfully. Choosing to eat a gluten free diet, eating seasonally, and including herbal remedies as part of my daily life has helped me a ton. I am in a very good place.
Nonetheless, digestive issues are complex. They can be autoimmune, caused by diet, stress, behavior, and about a million other things. I never wanted to pretend to have the cure.
But with my experience, I wanted to create a supportive remedy that would create a positive, beneficial, and flavorful digestive experience for others.
We tinkered with this formula for over a year before releasing it to the public. Not through focus groups or professional marketing agencies. We added herbs that may be beneficial to digestion that would complement fennel seed’s unique flavor. We shared cups of tea together until we felt it was just right. Trying to formulate a blend that included ancient medicinal plants like Star Anise as well as natives like Skullcap.
