herbal tea?

Im not sure where to put this but...

Basically I suffer from migranes oh so badly. The doctor has given me stupidly strong pain killers and some anti sickness stuff, but has told me all the usual chocolate cheese ect is a no no, then she said tea and coffee also doesnt help.

I work in an office. We drink tea all day. So I have a dilema. I have tried to cut down and she sugested things like herbal teas. I dont really know much about them other than most are an aquired taste!

Anybody care to suggest some?

Yeah man, herbal teas are definitely an acquired taste and if you're looking for something to satisfy your craving for conventional tea (milk, sugar et all) they're not ideal. Unless you find you like it, of course. It's just that it's not similar to normal tea. You don't take milk or sugar with it. Personally, I love Love LOVE herbal tea, but cannot stomach the normal stuff at all. Similarly, my friends love normal tea but cannot stand the taste of green/herbal.

You should try a variety of different teas all the same. I'm guessing it's the caffeine content of tea and coffee that your doctor disapproves of, so I suggest you try chamomile tea. It has calming properties, and so might be beneficial for your headaches. Stay away from green tea, as it has a high caffeine content.

The most popular and inexpensive brands of chamomile tea are Twinings and Clipper. You can buy it at most supermarkets and health stores.

I wuv these:

I dont dont drink tea. I always have twinnings peppermint or fuit teas. They take a bit of getting used to when you are so used to drinking proper tea, but stick with it as you soon get used to the taste!

i think jasmine tea is not an herbal tea, but a blend of jasmine leaves/blossoms with real tea leaves. so maybe avoid that one if your to cut out caffiene. green tea is not herbal tea as well.
