Results to my All Naturel Remedy-Laxative Tea

Well I managed to drink the herbal laxative tea! It was awful the taste was unexplainable……. it was very interesting to drink. It consisted of 5 mini packages that are to be mixed with hot water. It doesn’t need to be boiling water, honestly you do not want to be sipping this kind of tea. I realized that with the first cup of tea. I almost boiled the water so it was way to hot to just gulp down and I put the tea in my biggest tea cup. Stupid idea because after one sip I thought OMG!! I have to drink this s%i%. I learned very quickly that the next cup would be extremely smaller more like a shot glass. GET IT DONE!!

Results!!!!!!!! It totally worked I was able to go to the bathroom with hesitation. The tea made me feel alot better inside that’s for sure. I would definitely use this method again in the future if need be.

Herbal Laxative Tea

Well I’m not one for constipation, but every since I got back from my honeymoon in the Dominica it has been a problem. I’ve tried all the remedies that people suggest…….. prunes, apple juice, whole grains, yogurt, lots of water too. Nothing seems to work. I’ve been waiting last minute to see my doctor only reason being is, I think it will pass soon. Not to worry right??

I recently spoke with a Chinese medicine doctor and he only met with me for a few short minutes but he was able to almost pinpoint my problem. I told him my what was going on with my body but he was very aware with what I was feeling. I will be trying a herbal laxative tea within the next 12 hours so I will come back on to my blog and give my opinion about how it works and how it makes me feel.
