A Remedy For Bloating And C

[Mango04]

I read this in Natural Health magazine and thought I'd share the info...

It says, "Red Mandarin oil is able to trigger the release of gas. This antispasmodic is strong enough for adults with constipation. Combine three drops of red mandarin oil with one drop of peppermint oil and apply to your abdomen when you're bloated."

This is from pg. 24 of the March 2006 issue. I'm pretty sure the oils can be found in most natural foods stores. I haven't tried it yet myself so I can't say if it works. Might be worth a try though. I notice people are always searching for something to do to relieve bloating and such when glutened.

You rub the oil onto your stomach?

Or it is a pill?

Hi Mamaw,

I'll definitely let you know if I try it! I hate to recommend something I know nothing about, but how great would it be if it works

I think you rub the oil onto your stomach. You would use the little bottles of essential oils found in the aromatherapy section of a health food store.

I haven't been able to find the red mandarin oil in any of the health food stores. But it would be nice for someone to try it and see if it works. I really could use it because I feel like a stuffed pig at times.................

If you do try it please pm me with the results as I don't always get back to the original posts.....

thanks

Just make sure the oil is gluten free please, they may use a gluten filled oil as a vehicle for the red mandarin. We had to really make quite a few calls from my health food store when I was looking for hydrangea oil for kidney stones. A lot were NOT safe.
