If you feel heaviness in your stomach in the evening, especially after a heavy dinner, or your sleep becomes shallow, you don’t have to look for complicated solutions. Sometimes a herbal decoction is enough to help the body finish the day without stress.
We are talking about a simple collection of chamomile and mint. Both herbs are known for their calming effects. Chamomile relieves spasms in the intestines, and mint helps to relax and improves the flow of bile. Together they create a light, pleasant-tasting drink without bitterness.
Brew one teaspoon of dry chamomile and one teaspoon of dry mint in 250 ml of boiling water. Cover and leave for 10-15 minutes. Strain and drink warm 30–40 minutes before bedtime. Do not add honey if drinking after meals because it may cause slight fermentation.
After just a few evenings, you may notice that you fall asleep easier, in the morning there is no feeling of fullness in your stomach, and bowel movements become more regular.
