3 Days Post Op

I have a friend who just had surgery and she swears by ginger tea for the gas. I love peppermint tea but I'm going to get some ginger tea too.

Never tried Truvia but sure its much like all sugar substitutes, its ok if used in small quantities within something but doesn't work well for use directly e.g. on strawberries like the adverts. Actually I quite like Peppermint Tea, the nurses at the hospital were sure it helps to get rid of gas post-op, maybe it does but I still had it, but it was very refreshing, and helps with dry mouth and sore throats after the op. I like Twinnings Peppermint and Nettle but I am sure its not for everyone and I am not sure I would adopt it if it wasn't for the diet or the op. Advantage is it does not require sugar or sugar substitute.

That's funny I use the twinning peppermint tea in my kuerig machine.

I'm gonna try it...My husband is having the surgery in a few months so he's seeing everything I go through so he'll know what to expect. Thanks for the helpful tips
