Herbal teas for Crohn’s disease

Herbal crohn’s teas can be an effective remedy and can often be used in conjunction with vitamin supplements and proper diet to relieve and prevent gastrointestinal symptoms. Although herbs thought to be beneficial for Crohn’s disease can be taken in forms other than tea (IE pills), herbal tea tends to be the best way to treat gastrointestinal problems.

Why? According to some studies, the warm liquid is easy for the body to digest and allows the herbs to come into direct contact with the walls of the stomach and intestines. By contrast, herbal Crohn’s supplements in pill form can be difficult to digest and may contain alcohol, often causing most of the herb to be absorbed in the mouth.

The following information focuses on herbal teas that are considered the best for herbal Crohn’s disease treatment.

Where can you find herbal teas and which ones are the best? You can find herbal teas at your local grocery store, health food or nutrition stores, and online. Although loose leaf tea is best, tea bags are fine as long as you can clearly smell the distinctive aroma of the herb through the bag.

Also, make sure herbal teas are caffeine-free, as caffeine can irritate the gastrointestinal tract and trigger symptoms. You should also make sure that the herb is the only or main ingredient listed in the tea.
