None of the teas should "clean you out" at all! Peppermint is an excellent spasm reducer, although if you have heartburn or GERD it should be avoided. Fennel helps with gas. Ginger helps with nausea. Chamomile is a nice relaxant if you can't handle peppermint.

Splenda, and all fake sugars, are really bad for your stomach. Even my iron-bellied husband has a condition we call "the Splenda farts". Real sugar is actually fairly soothing to the stomach!

If you're having problems with C, you need to follow the IBS diet with sufficient insoluble fiber at every meal plus lots of liquids and exercise.
