Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Heather's Peppermint tea

I take Heather's peppermint oil capsules every morning like clock work and I follow the specific directions as I have reflux. I know they are enteric coated - so that shouldn't bother my stomach - right? What about the peppermint tea? When I told my gasterontologist, he said the peppermint wasn't good for reflux. Hard to find a good gasterontologist with an HMO insurance here in California. I had a great gastro doctor back East where we are trying to move back to. Anyways, my primary doctor gave me a referral to a dietician and I spoke with her last week about the FODMAPS diet. Waiting for her to get back to me. She seemed to be more attentive when I told her all I was doing with my diet, Heather's supplements, etc. than the gastro doctor. She is willing to work with me. So, my question is, will the peppermint in Heather's tea bother me with reflux? Or is it okay like the capsules that are enteric coated? Again, please assist as I am about to place an order. Thank you.
