UKKO Tummy tea blend – 120 g

How Belly Tea was born

This tea was born from a very personal story. When our eldest son caught a nasty stomach virus with vomiting and diarrhea, he took a long time to recover even after the worst was over: for days he was bloated, nauseous, and his digestion was slow to return to normal.

That's why Évi Sipos-Kerese, as a herbal expert, put together this blend to support the recovery of digestion so that the child could finally feel comfortable again. Since then it has become one of the family's favorite teas, always kept at hand – not only during recovery, but any time digestion needs a little support: for bloating, a feeling of fullness, or after a heavy meal.

If you feel bloated or full, your digestion is slow to get going, or you simply feel discomfort in your tummy, UKKO Belly Tea can be a pleasant, natural companion. This 100% natural blend of selected herbs (rosehip, chamomile, ginger, lemon balm, hibiscus) traditionally supports digestion when your body needs a little help.

When is it the best companion?

• in case of general digestive discomfort, bloating or a feeling of fullness
• when your digestion is slow and sluggish to get going
• after a heavy, fatty meal – or one drink too many
• after a stomach virus, during recovery, when digestion is slowly returning to normal
• ginger is a traditional companion for nausea and discomfort
• a pleasant-tasting, natural herbal tea that the whole family enjoys sipping

UKKO Belly Tea is a food product; its use is not a substitute for necessary medical treatment! Not recommended in case of hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients of the tea blend. Results may vary from person to person. The effects of the tea are based on scientific literature on the herbal ingredients and on folk medicine experience – but it's always important to make the best decision for your health!

Who do we recommend it for?

• those recovering from a stomach virus whose digestion is slow to get back on track
• anyone looking for a natural, pleasant herbal tea for digestive comfort

About the ingredients:

• Rosehip: rich in vitamins and minerals; traditionally consumed for natural support of the body (its vitamin C content decreases in hot water, so the tea provides complex support)
• Chamomile flower: one of the best-known digestion-soothing plants in tradition; traditionally used to calm the stomach and relieve bloating
• Ginger root: a plant traditionally used to strengthen the stomach and relieve nausea and queasiness
• Lemon balm: traditionally a soother for a nervous, cramping stomach; pleasant citrusy taste
• Hibiscus: rich in vitamins and minerals, with antioxidant effects; a plant traditionally used to support digestion and bile function, and an excellent thirst quencher

Directions for use:

Preparing the tea

• Boil water, then let it cool slightly – the ideal temperature is approx. 80°C.
• For one mug (approx. 500 ml) of tea, 1 heaped teaspoon of tea (2–2.5 g) is enough.
• Place the blend in a tea infuser and slowly pour water at the right temperature over it.
• Cover and let it steep for 10–15 minutes before drinking.

Recommended consumption

For digestive discomfort (bloating, feeling of fullness, nausea): 2–3 mugs a day; steep 1 teaspoon of the blend in 250–300 ml of water for 15–20 minutes. | As a course: for up to 10 days, followed by a break of at least 2 weeks.

IMPORTANT – the acute phase is a medical matter: While vomiting or diarrhea persists – especially in young children and infants – the most important things are adequate fluid replacement and medical advice, due to the risk of dehydration! Belly Tea is not intended to treat an acute infection; once the worst is over, during RECOVERY, it supports the restoration of digestion. In case of persistent, severe symptoms or fever, always consult a doctor.

Dosage for children

• Young children (2–3 years): max. 0.25 liters (half a mug) per day, diluted twice as much
• Older children: 0.5–1 liter per day

Herbal teas should not exceed half of the daily fluid intake; this is especially important for children. Consult a pediatrician before giving it to children under 2 years of age.

Responsible herbal use: we recommend Belly Tea primarily for the natural support of digestive comfort, for prevention and as a supplement, not as a substitute for medicine. In case of existing complaints, fever, persistent or severe symptoms, pregnancy or medication, consult your doctor.
