I know from reading Heather's book that fennel tea can be a life saver for gas and bloating. However, when I am bloated and gassy I am also extremely nauseous and have trouble with liquids. Has anyone tried Fennel Capsules instead? If so, what has your experience been - did they help as well?
Thanks:).

Best bet is fennel oil capsules, new

which I haven't seen as a stand alone product, only as fennel oil included in peppermint oil capsules.

The fennel caps made with ground fennel aren't likely to do much. They can't hurt, but the volatile oil level is going to be so low you aren't likely to get the benefits you would from the brewed tea or the actual fennel oil.

Best,
Heather
