Deflate After-Meal Bloating: The Fennel Tea Recipe
A simple fennel seed tea, one of the most traditional remedies for bloating and trapped gas.
That tight, bloated feeling after a meal is one of the most common digestive complaints — and fennel seed tea is one of the oldest, simplest remedies for it.
What you'll need
- 1 teaspoon fennel seeds
- 1 cup hot water
How to make it
- Lightly crush the fennel seeds to help release their oils.
- Add them to the hot water and let steep, covered, for 10 minutes.
- Strain and drink warm after a meal.
Why people say it works
Fennel seeds have been studied for their ability to relax the muscles of the digestive tract, which can help ease trapped gas and the bloated feeling that follows. It's one of the most consistently recommended natural remedies for digestive discomfort across many cultures.
This is a traditional home remedy, not a medical treatment. If bloating is severe, persistent, or comes with other symptoms, check with your doctor.
