Peppermint tea is a great home remedy for flatulence, as this medicinal plant has anti-spasmodic properties, reducing the peristaltic movements of the intestine and avoiding the formation of gases.
Flatulence can be caused by excessive intake of air during meals, sedentary lifestyle, poor eating habits, and gastrointestinal disorders, such as constipation.
