Heather's Tummy Tamers-Peppermint Oil Capsules, 180ct (2 Pack)

I have been suffering from abdominal pains and diarrhea every morning for the past twenty years. Let me explain what I mean by suffering.My alarm clock is my bowls. 5:30AM, Im torn from sleep by painful urgency and gripping anxiety. I reach the toilet just in time to endure the first of many battles. The pain is exquisite. Sweating, praying, swearing, pleading, violent shaking, chills, ending in nausea and often dry heaving. After about 45 minutes, the first battle of the morning is over. I go back to bed and pass out from exhaustion only to wake up 20 minutes later to do it all again. It hasn't always been this bad or as often, but the older I get the worse it gets. Ive tried EVERYTHING. Dairy free, Gluten free, Vegan, Elimination of every type of food. Ive tried prescription medications. Ive seen the best UCLA gastroenterologist, and have been scanned, probed, ex rayed, colonoscopied etc. . .My life was no life at all. Having friends, a girlfriend, or accomplishing my hopes and dreams is impossibility when I spend half my day crying and praying for death on the toilet. Thoughts of "The Long Sleep" were often on my mind.And then I found HEATHER!I was told about The peppermint oil pills and Acacia tummy fiber by a random lady at wholefoods. She saw that I was being polite and wasn't really taking her recommendation seriously. She said "Dont be an idiot, just try it for a week"! Ive never been called an idiot by a stranger, that I can remember. Her brazen attitude and insults stayed with me for the rest of the day and I ended up ordering both the peppermint oil pills and Acacia tummy fiber. I gave it an unenthusiastic shot. I cant remember if it was day 3 or day 4 that I woke up at 10:30 in the morning completely bewildered!"Is this really happening? Did I really just sleep in?" I asked out loud.Over the course of the next week the Hell that was my life, got better and better and better!I AM FREE!!!!!!!!!! I AM ALIVE!!!!!! I am a bit over dramatic. Well, not really. . .It has been 3 months now, and I now wake up early by choice, I take a yoga class 5 days a week, I meditate, I eat what I want (Ice cream, bread OMG bread), Im building the house of my dreams, and making sweet, sweet Whoopy with a wonderful girl that I met on a hike last month, and so much more!This review might be just a bit TMI, but I know there are a whole lot of people out there like me that have tried everything. Please, Try this, and start living again! Heather, who every you are, thank you from the bottom of my heart. . . and bottom!!!-DHere's what I do:Acacia tummy fiber - 3 times a day on an empty stomach along with a Peppermint oil pill.- I put one teaspoon in a small mason jar and fill it with water and bring it up to bed and put it next to my bottle of Peppermint oil pills, so I can take them first thing in the morning.- I take the next one at 3:00pm and the last one an hour or so after dinner, always with a peppermint pill.- SET THE ALARM ON YOUR PHONE 3 TIMES A DAY AND GET ON WITH YOUR LIFE!!!!

Worth it. This product has seen me through Gerd, pancreatic issues and most all tummy issues. I recommend often to people who can't seem to know where to start to get eating again or stop acid reflux from dominating their day. It does have a peppermint sensation as it hits your acids but with ICE WATER, it will pass. Drink your water with this because it helps. 15 to 30 min before and/or after a meal... you'll be alright. I started with just taking it in the morning and drinking my water in the morning before work or any errands and then by the time I was settled I felt great.

I have had some good results with Heather's Tummy Tamers-Peppermint oil capsules. But I can't give it 5 stars, as it doesn't want to stay down, but comes back up in a sharp peppermint aftertaste, even burns my throat a little, if I don't swallow it first with a full meal. So, I can never take it later in the day, or it would be a rather painful after-effect if I decided to lay down, or at bedtime. I believe anyone with acid reflux or IBS may have this problem with the capsules. Instead, I more heavily rely on the Fennel Tea she sells, along with a favorite peppermint tea. I make a double batch of those together and keep the tea warm, as a calming assist for digestion, as needed.

If you suffer from IBS, you really should try these.They help relieve the Bloating, cramps and gas that i have suffered with for years.the recomendation is to take these on an empty stomach, i find they work best with a very light snack, usually 2 or 3 crackers about 1/2 hour before lunchYou can find several simular items out ther, BUT not as high a quality as Heathers.many of the other brands will disolve in the stomache instead of the intestines where it does the most good.Heathers has a couting that delays them from disolving until they are where they can do the most goodDo yourself a favor, buy this product

IBS is not fun. The medications for it can make you feel really out of it and have a hard time getting up and out of bed. I can't promise this will work for everyone but it was worth a try for us. Now only one dose of the rx meds a day instead of two helps the mornings be more normal than they have for years.

After a ton of research, I tried these capsules because of the great reviews. They didn't work for me but I'm leaving a neutral review because I should have checked all the ingredients before purchasing. I have a lot of allergies that cause IBS and these capsules have some of those in the ingredients -- soybean (oil) and ginger. I believe these did not work for me due to that. To everyone who did not have success, you should maybe consider taking an allergy test because the culprit could be allergies rather than the capsules failing to work.

I've used these for years now. I have IBS and have added these to my daily routine. They're great for relief of mild symptoms. Stomach pain, upset, and gas are relieved in 30 mins or less. Other cheaper products just don't have all that these do. A word of caution though. These are a helpful addition, not a treatment or cure. If you have severe or chronic symptoms, as I do, please seek professional medical advise before trying any natural remedy. These work for me as needed. I know that they may not work as well for others.

I am so lucky I read about these pills. I've been to Heather's website and read her story. After having almost 10 cramping episodes, I bought the peppermint pills. A MIRACLE. If I take these pills, when the cramping starts, I avoid the entire cramping problem ALTOGETHER. Yay! It doesn't mean I can avoid the bathroom but that part doesn't necessarily happen every time the cramping starts. The possibility is there but I'm not so bad off that I have to alter my entire routine over this problem. I can see where I might if I had not found these pills. I recommend them HIGHLY.
