Travel‑Friendly Digestive Herbs: Ginger, Triphala, Peppermint & Chamomile for a Happy Gut

Travel disrupts routine, diet and, often, digestion. Herbal Academy’s 2026 travel guide notes that ginger is universally used to calm nausea and improve digestive power, while triphala – a blend of three Ayurvedic fruits – regulates the bowels. Peppermint can soothe indigestion and gas, and chamomile doubles as a digestive and sleep aid. Natura Sacra’s herb profiles add fennel, sage and marjoram to the digestive toolkit, noting their benefits for bloating, hormone balance and relaxation.

3. Peppermint: Sip peppermint tea after meals to ease gas and discomfort; peppermint essential oil can also be inhaled for nausea.

4. Chamomile: Brew chamomile tea to calm the stomach and promote sleep.

5. Fennel Seeds: Chew a teaspoon of fennel seeds after meals to relieve bloating.
