Sounds great to me! You reminded me to get peppermint tea. I've also heard people talk about papaya enzymes to help break up Proteins (?) and relieve the "stuck food" feeling, overeating and foamies.

Miso is yummy. It is fermented soy bean paste and tastes mmm mmm. Heat up some Water or broth and mix it in. It is a traditional Japanese Soup often used as a quick and hearty Breakfast. It comes in tubs similar to margarine. Typically found in health foot sections.
